well the t-rex is probably dead, so

you know what's unhealthy for me personally? working long days outside while in a caloric deficit

you know what's cool about processed foods? they're convenient, often shelf-stable, and calorically dense.

like, fuck you man, sometimes I have 10 minutes and need to consume at least 500 calories and that's not happening with a banana and a handful of almonds. Having the time and money to eat "unprocessed" (whatever that means) is a privilege not many people have.

Blah blah blah leverage blah blah philanthropic investment models blah blah blah.

Just take the money and Godspeed.

a map from 1918 showing the interurban network sprawling across Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, and Ohio

One side obsession from my research into the 1920s is the extensive network of ELECTRIC trains that used to connect cities and towns across the central Midwest called the Interurban. We had this more than a hundred years ago. The things we had and the things we lost.

It's a beautiful morning to harvest #avocados

People are asking ChatGPT things I would normally just ask a friend, parent, mentor, therapist or medical professional for or about.

A good time for some hardy perennials with deep roots to go in, but it's still going to take a long time to get back to where it was before Helene
