  • Thanks for at least listening, what I learned from this is that even without going into a big switch like that it seems like everyone would benefit from getting a general blood panel test done so they can see if there is something specifically unexpectedly off that may be contributing, some peoples tests ive seen seem to be in a very wide range of a target so much so that its not useful to go by that and others I’ve seen seem to have a very narrow range of what the target is so if you ever did get one I’d go do some research of your own just to make sure the numbers look fine.

    From what I have learned everyone lacks something or has too much of something without a intentional effort to fix it which may or may not contribute negatively or positively moment to moment but it won’t be good long term so I definitely recommend a general blood panel at the least just to have one for curiosity from an earlier date to look back to in the future.

    Ok I’ll bite.

    These are all things that can be measured to see if they are helpful or not so saying this is worthless is not true and ignores the people they did help.

    I agree that there is not a whole lot of consensus on aging but I’m talking about health in general, these things just happen to also be good for aging (which you can verify if you look into the research available yourself, no i wont link it for you, I know that is unkind of me to do)

    Believing there is a singular promising thing that is as of yet unproven is not better than all of these other things that are so that is a silly point to be making from your perspective.

    Longevity is a serious research field and there are multiple government petitions at least just in the us that are making valid points to relabel aging as a disease the same way that obesity was relabeled as a disease which then introduced a flywheel of lots of research to add onto what was already present.

    The pills are in fact not crap so long as you can find 3rd party testing available to prove to everyone that they have what they claim to have (this is what has gotten blueprint onto thin ice and why I recommend novos instead at the moment)



  • Wait so you are telling me that people don’t instinctively have this skill? Maybe I should take a stab at cooking sometime too lol

    I’m in a similar boat where generally everything I make comes out tasting pretty good even when I haven’t tried it before, I wouldn’t say anything has been like worldclass or anything but I also haven’t looked up much to level up my cooking.


  • You must check out king gizzard and the lizard wizard, they are honestly rock and roll hall of fame material, they are I think what modern rock and roll has evolved into.

    They have a crazy track record of recording multiple albums per year for like 20 years straight and not a single one of them suck and they continue to get better everytime, idk how they do it but they do it well and i can confidently say this is not an exaggeration of my interest in them.

    They explore a lot of variety of genres but I think people mostly look at them and place them as rock and roll.

    How do we activate this feature? I have it enabled after going into the developer settings menu but nothing seems to happen, I see mentions of an app but idk what the app is. I am on grapheneOS though instead of normal android so there could be something with that here.

    Oh nvm I figured it out, it just took a bit for me to realize there was a new terminal app on my phone



  • I never really was into spirituality much and then over time I noticed Buddhism kept bumping into me and kept explaining things in more and more straightforward ways over the years so eventually I caved in and looked into it more closely and decided to practice Tibetan Buddhism because it felt more closely related to my own personal experiences and interests…it can be tricky to understand at first until you understand how all the symbolism works and then a whole world of information was opened up to me and I feel better than ever.

    Those early Tibetan Buddhists really got a lot of things right from the start and still today I see science research come out suggesting the same things they figured out long ago.

    From what I can tell spirituality serves an important purpose in our lives and it is to keep us mentally healthy by whatever means we wish, the caveat here is that you don’t misinterpret messages and fall into bad negative paths.





  • So far its only been a week and I’m starting to realize that I haven’t chosen a good spot to place food and should find a spot or feeder where I can have water and the food in a nice open part of the yard raised in the air a bit and hopefully in a spot I can aim a camera at. I was playing with dogfood and saw 1 juvenile crow only because I had set up a camera from a old phone, today I got some unshelled unsalted peanuts. I think to get the ball rolling better I need to go walk around and find some crows and lead them towards the house. I grabbed a old broke plant pot made of ceramic and broke the ceramic into small pieces so I can offer some shiny objects to the crows so maybe they either see the food better or take this as a gift and start connecting with my spot more. I don’t think I am on their normal route and we have a lot of other miscellaneous birds and dogs and cats and some small predator wild animals around and in a suburb so i don’t think it will be very easy to get them to come regularly, I was surprised to even get the one bird once.
