  • I wanted to say the same thing, use it or lose it.

    Pain sometimes comes from injury or other mechanism, but loads of people with back pain just need to exercise more.

    A strong back will do wonders.

    Likewise a strong wrist will resist keyboard pain. It won’t tolerate bad typing posture or a crappy keyboard, but it will resist pain with a good ergo keyboard and good posture

    This article feels like it was written by an old man yelling at clouds. “… Back in my day we smoked mid and we liked it” shakes fist and then uses it as a reason to go back to prohibition. Why can’t we just make it legal and let the free market figure it out.

    Turns out more THC for the buck means people can make a few months supply of edibles out of a few grams. Cost effective!

    With an open field, who would you vote for president?

    Now given the field has two candidates, who do you think will do a better job between the two? I’m actually curious to hear your answers and why.

    Your comment here indicates you think being able to talk over others is an important part of the job. Why do you see that as an important attribute? Does the President of the most powerful country in the world often need to be the loudest person in the room? Do they need to dominate conversations, preventing other people from talking, to do their job effectively?









  • I listened to it while lifting, and now every time I lift while listening to something else I’m like “ugh this book is fine but it’s no Silmarillion”

    I’ve listened to dozens of great books at the gym, but there’s only two I’ve wanted to listen to a second time: Silmarillion and Norse Mythology by Neil Gaimon

    There’s just such a vibe to those books. The stories are short, but they feel ancient. I feel rooted when I listen to them.

    That and when I’m trying to fall asleep and it’s winter. I’m cozy and feeling the hygge. I’ve got my warm drink and blankets and I want a bedtime story of how Morgoth was cast down
