Starting to lift weights was the best decision I ever made and the best habit I’ve ever formed. Nagging aches and pains are basically a thing of the past. I’m way more useful, and my lower body, which was once withered and useless after a decade of working in an office, have been replaced with tree trunks and a dump-truck ass

A couple of the accessory benefits of this that in order to support my lifting progress I now eat way better, quit drinking and prioritize proper sleep. Overall it’s just been a huge increase in quality of life

Strength training has such an incredible impact on your overall wellbeing everyone should incorporate it into their routine as much as possible

Something like “Temporarily inconvenienced billionaires” I think?

Thinking that there is no reason to take your shoes off is the most American thing in the world. There is poop, pee, puke, pollen, pollution, parvo and prions out there, among other things.

In Japan the entryway of a house is usually a step lower than the rest of the house. It is considered part of the outside, where the shoes stay, as well as all of the dirty things from the outside that are on the shoes. And symbolically, your troubles from the outside world are not brought into the house either. It’s a major faux pas to wear your shoes in the house past this step and bring all that shit inside. Interesting contrast

I’m extremely consistent with my weightlifting program (1.5 years aww yeah!)

No doubt that… It’s been a long road

Private equity/venture capitalists - they acquire unique brands and then extract all the value and enshitify them into the ground

Gotta go with wildly inappropriate Master Roshi from the original Dragon ball, dude was out of control, definitely a product of his time that wouldn’t fly today

That’s a bingo

Say more

• Stay out of debt
• Strength train (5/3/1 three or four days per week)
• Avoid substance abuse
• Only settle down with someone who is a HELL YES. If you’re lukewarm about them, it’s a no
• Make time to do something creative like music, make it a habit
• Say no if you’re not interested in something or someone. Its ok to say no to shit

Mindhunter is the same calibre, sad we didn’t get more seasons

Mindhunter, True Detective season one

Well yeah crank your hog first of course

Wrestle the pig first, every day. Whatever is your worst, most unpleasant, annoying task for the entire day, do it before you do anything else. It minimizes your stress and worrying and puts it in the rearview mirror.
