Last night I dreamt about eating a salad. I purchased all the ingredients for that exact salad and ate the salad. It was pretty good. Then my stomach spent the rest of the day telling me it was angry about me eating the salad. Stomach, why hast thou betrayed me

If only there were such a thing as "to old to regard as prey." Man, I had 60 year-olds hit on me when I was 14 Creepiness is not bound by numbers

I feel you on it being hard to eat some days! But still, very grateful for this medication. Started 6 and weeks ago, down 12 pounds so far.

I admire your determination! I've only heard back from 20 out of 30 so far, but all rejections, and I'm feeling very discouraged.

I know a lot more about what's happening in NYC than in my own city, because our mayor doesn't do anything to keep us informed. Even if our mayor was doing a good job, she's unlikely to win re-election because not communicating accomplishments and plans breeds discontent.

Also his team has done an incredible job at communicating all of the work done, as well as plans for what's coming up next. *And* what to do with weather and other emergencies. Imagine that! Communicating with the people you serve about what you're doing and what services exist!

During Covid, on a Discord server somewhere, I ran into a person who was asking if anyone would like Daily chicken facts. I of course signed up. For about 8 months, I was regaled with gloriously dubious facts about chickens. Then they disappeared, without notice. This week they returned.

I'm grateful every time I see someone in a mask, but that's somebody protecting me from catching illness. Are they angry because they want to get sick? It's madness.

Have you tried calling the DNC and saying that? Because they still seem to be unaware.

Just listen to an Irish person read it on audiobook. It still won't entirely make sense, but at least you're listening to an Irish person.

I would like to propose an additional trauma treatment group for those who have been talked into watching because, "It gets better after the first three episodes." That may be true, but you do understand that I will never recover from the first three episodes

Rick Steves came and spoke to my class in high school about travel, and he was the nicest guy and so inspiring. He also taught us the clothes rolling technique for packing, which has served me all my life. 😂

That's just how super fast weight loss works. It doesn't eat muscle first, but both fat and muscle are considered fair game to make up the calorie deficit, especially if you aren't doing strength training. The high protein is more about encouraging more weight loss than stopping muscle loss.

Or maybe it's sad how the use of the word "female" in a context like this indicates so clearly both a confirmation bias and a tendency to be a male

My university library still uses cars inside the books and a stamp. I love it, because then you can see all the people who've checked out the book in its history!
