Damn it Barclay!

I’m having a ridiculous amount of fun playing Cosmoteer, it’s dangerously addictive. Spaceship architecture and combat with a career mode and missions

The worst financial decision so far

Listen. Strange women floating in space distributing implants is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical cosmic ceremony

It’s kind of a cliche, but lifting has changed my life immeasurably for the better. It was something to do during covid instead of just drinking, but now it has become my passion. When I’m not lifting I often read about it which helps keep me occupied. I became motivated to improve my recovery between workouts, which lead me to eat better, sleep better, and is powerful motivation to avoid alcohol too. The physical transformation has been shocking, in a good way. Every time I see old friends, family and coworkers they inevitably do a double take. The money saved from not drinking let me build a home gym. But to start a gym membership costs less than a night out. If you’ve ever considered it I would highly recommend it

Jeff and a few other influencers came out immediately attacking the reviewer, it’s been wild seeing them circle the wagons. Mike claimed it was an old draft of the thesis, and produced an updated (doctored) version, which turned out to be fake and he then admitted that Solomon had in fact reviewed the final version. Assuming the university had threatened Mike. Solomon then released a video about his dealings with Jeff Nippard which also casts Jeff in a bad light. Generally disappointing all around

It’s pretty niche, but Mike Israetel of Renaissance Periodization is one of the biggest fitness youtubers who for years has thrown his phd around to become an authority on sports science. A critical review of his joke of a phd thesis was recently published and now it’s pure chaos in this sphere

Rule of Acquisition number 421, never go in against a Ferengi when LATINUM IS ON THE LINE AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Consider lifting as the opposite of a chronically online lifestyle? It would help get you out of the house, and you can make a drastic physical change to your body and mind. It would put you in contact with people that you wouldn’t normally associate with, and immediately give you common ground with them and a no brainer ice breaker too.

Brace yourself

“… and then his head exploded” - This can’t be right?!?

“You’re up Troi”

The methods that they use to do this are crazy (installing a hostile executive, naked short selling, etc), the fact that they got caught while doing it to gamestop caused some crazy shit to be brought to light, and nearly wiped out the entire market
