My ideal gym schedule:
💪 Lift heavy Monday, Wednesday, Friday
🏃♂️ Long cardio, stretch, sauna on Saturday (preferably inclined walk or sprints); optional for Tuesday and Thursday as well
🥩 Prioritize at least .75g protein/lb (ideally 1g/lb) of body weight to maximize recovery in between sessions
😴 Sleep for at least 7 hours per night
🚶➡️Get outside for a walk every day, ideally aiming for 10,000 steps

Who’s hitting the gym on Saturday?

Completely agree. I don’t think it’s talked about enough - JK Simmons and Miles Teller give 2 of the best acting performances in the same movie that I’ve ever seen. Not to mention that with everyone talking about how Hollywood barely makes original movies these days, this one is very unique and interesting. It’s one of those movies that fills you with suspense.

@LESlegion @PopcornPost_ I only watched this recently. Awesome movie.

You only have one film to prove that you have great taste in movies. What film are you going with?

@aakashgupta This also assumes that your only meal for those days is a single chipotle bowl which feels unrealistic

The math on this checks out for way more people than you'd expect, and the reason has almost nothing to do with Chipotle's pricing.
Americans throw away 31.9% of the groceries they buy. A single person spends roughly $112 per week at the store, and about $36 of that ends up in the trash. Wilted spinach, expired yogurt, the chicken breast you froze in February and never thawed. Effective cost for food you actually eat: $76 per week.
A Chipotle bowl runs about $11. Seven days: $77. Consumption rate: 100%.
Your grocery bill is a pre-shrinkage number. Chipotle is post-shrinkage. Compare them honestly and fast casual wins for any single person whose waste rate hits the national average of 32%.
Add prep time. A home-cooked dinner takes about 45 minutes with cleanup. Seven dinners: 5.25 hours per week. Chipotle takes 8 minutes from line to fork. Price your time at even $15/hour and the labor gap adds another $70 to the grocery side.
Grocery shopping feels cheap because you see one receipt per week. Seven Chipotle meals feel expensive because you see seven charges. Same spend, opposite psychological weight. The accounting creates the illusion. Food waste destroys it.

so after doing the math I’ve realized if I eat a chipotle bowl every day that’s only about $80 a week, which is MUCH LESS less money than I’ve been spending on weekly groceries

@Gibboanxious Rogue One should be way higher. That movie perfectly captures the stakes and nearly impossible odds that the rebel alliance faced in defeating the Empire.

@PaulSkallas Live each day like it could be your last. Tell those close to you that you love them, laugh at things, and leave it all out there. If you find yourself doing something for too long that is not meant for you, then change it. Life is too short to not be lived to the fullest

The finale of The Wire (2002) is perfect precisely since it refuses to offer real closure or redemption. The institutions keep moving, the corners stay the same, new faces replace the old ones, and the cycle just continues without sentimentality.

NYC is one of the most amazing places in the world. It certainly has its flaws, but its energy, melting pot of cultures, and uniqueness of experiences are something you cannot find anywhere else in the world. Each neighborhood has a distinct feel to it and there are thousands of places to explore.

I do A LOT of walking around NYC, due to these bizarre comments and lies filling up my post below, I’m gonna be posting more thoughts and images in all different areas of Manhattan and other boroughs.
Not sure why so many Americans want NYC to fail? So much resentment.

Most people talking about New York City aren’t actually walking NYC. I’m born and raised here, and today I walked over 25,000 steps through Lower Manhattan. Brookfield Place, the Oculus, Battery Park, Financial District, World Trade Center, West Side Highway. I even took the subway because I wanted to see what’s really happening on the ground. First time in a couple of decades. And honestly? NYC felt safe. Clean. Busy. Alive. Almost Disneyland-ish again, like the Bloomberg era. This is not the de Blasio era people still have stuck in their heads. I’ve said before that if Mamdani wins, the first four years will probably be very bullish for NYC because that entire movement knows it cannot afford to fail publicly. Adams also deserves credit because the city did get safer coming out of the chaos. The crowd rushing in and pushing rents to new all time highs is a movement. We might not agree, but they are absolutely doing great. Maybe it starts failing in 4 years, but right now, New York is pumping. Real estate booming. Restaurants packed. Businesses overloaded with work. Gorgeous people everywhere. Energy everywhere. Everybody I know here with a legitimate business is busy and turning down jobs because demand is so strong. You can trust propaganda if you want. I trust my eyes and the miles I walk. What we do need is pressure and accountability so the city keeps improving and never slides backward again. Keep chimping out. But if you actually walk New York City instead of consuming narratives online, you can feel it immediately. New York City is back.

@Bqmbulu Life is inherently difficult. Our parents do their best to shield us from this reality but between work, bills, and finding purpose things are hard. Skills like discipline and resilience are essential - life will knock you down many times but it’s never ever give you up.

Tolkiens work is full of great messaging on good vs. evil. My personal favorite quote from LOTR: “I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo. "So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

Postmodern stories like The Boys can never have a good ending.
Why?
Because you can never have the restoration of order.
Power will always have more "oppression" to unmask.
But this is what makes Tolkien brilliant.
Yes, power can corrupt, but not all power is "Ring-shaped."

I used to roll my eyes at gratitude journals. Then I looked at the data.
People who practice gratitude consistently have 23% lower cortisol levels — leading to reduced stress, improved sleep, and better immune function.
Lower cortisol means less inflammation.. less inflammation means slower aging.
