Toilet made out of cats.

Or even from a brain back to itself. Doesn’t even have to be consumed by other brains for it to be art.

Seconding walking. I had gained 40lbs and eased back into fitness slowly over 2 years. My issue with hiking is the prep time and driving and felt like extra steps. Stepping out the door with a good podcast on was the most accessible for me (recognize that I’m lucky to live in a place with sidewalks and some paths). If the nature part of hiking makes it more interesting to you though and more likely to follow through, go for that!

Sometimes I feel we should be writing these numbers out fully. That’s something worth $4,000,000,000,000 that’s not paying anything substantial to improve your life. If they paid $400M in taxes they’d still be worth about $4T.

I loved Curb Your Enthusiasm recognizing that.

Find a girl that will not wear a bra AND not yell at you.

As someone with ADHD inattentive… I miss there being an ADD. I’m not hyperactive. Now that I think of it, neither am I inattentive if it’s something I’m interested in. ADD felt like a better descriptor for me, personally.

I disagree, I think it should be rememember.

Thank you for your service and for saving me from continuing on down the thread.

The Atlantic has been putting out some great articles. Worth a read. This is a huge shift in the integrity of American higher learning:

For the entire history of this country, the federal government has allowed colleges and universities to grow and flourish according to their own determination of what higher education means. The resulting system is, for all its flaws, the envy of the world. The smartest people on Earth come to America to live, learn, invent, and prosper, because they know our universities are free. The Trump administration is trying to bring that tradition to an end.

The compact is not a statute passed by Congress or a regulation written with public consent. It is only the ideological will of the president, offered with the logic and ethics of a mafia protection racket. Shakedown artists browbeat and threaten so they can take something that doesn’t belong to them. They also do it to establish who has power and who should live in fear. Universities that accept this bargain will be selling their souls for nothing but a promise of safety that will surely be broken in turn.

Well written, interesting article. Sometimes it’s hard to see the work going on in the background, even if we don’t agree with how they’re going about it. It sounds like it all comes down to an accountability issue, how is oil and gas being held accountable for their empty promises (which we’ve made deal based on before and lost). It’s notable how all our other industries have reduced emissions while oil and gas shave increased, and passed those profits back to shareholders in the states.

Losing empathy is not normal and is a symptom of burn out. I hope you find the support it sounds like you might need to heal from whatever you have going on irl.

Now I want to pronounce blown like clown.
