eek @eke.bsky.social · 8hthe especially funny thing about "25th now!" is that it is a call that only applies to JD Vance and the Trump cabinet specifically, the only people who can initiate it 260

eek @eke.bsky.social · 11hreally too conflated with the weight loss for me to piece out differences. vo2 went up hugely for me when i started approaching weight loss goals and ramping up my training and mileage, but i was also faster and doing more distance than ever. 110
eek @eke.bsky.social · 11hyeah, i had almost identical results, very consistent with their findings. good to know it basically doesn't matter, since abrupt changes in resting heart rate are one of those things you look out for when you're doing athletic stuff 110
eek @eke.bsky.social · 12halso wild to hear Lilly start seemingly seriously talking about how, long term, they've basically figured out weight loss. there's more work to be done and improvements to be made but if you can just induce 25% weight loss for practically anyone the game is kinda over, you can only do it better 030
eek @eke.bsky.social · 12hthis is really interesting to finally see data on, since pulse rate was a really noticeable change (particularly as a distance runner with a relatively low baseline heart rate) going on reta to me 230

eek @eke.bsky.social · 12hsometimes this kind of analogy really simplifies our intuitive understanding of things. it's much more socially appropriate to ask the machine ghost about my data set than my girlfriend 090
eek @eke.bsky.social · 13hfortunate for us that the modern nazi party cannot actually do this kind of populism because said working class voters are also heavily nonwhite 020
eek @eke.bsky.social · 13hi semi-genuinely think this would be the actual effective evil version of the trump ACA checks that he could pull off. obamacare is the worst ever, the people got screwed by the dems! benefits would heavily skew towards working class gen X voters in purple states that are actually good for him 130
eek @eke.bsky.social · 13hslopulist pitch: obamacare got destroyed by republicans and working people all over the country in the expansion gap got unfairly screwed out of a countless amount of money and coverage. we can just give out checks at will, right? 010

But what it does to the brain is stranger… To render someone so deeply unconscious, anesthesia shuts down multiple distinct functions in the nervous system, making a patient insensate, paralyzed, and unable to form memories.” 25914
