@BasedBiohacker Electrolyte recs plz… all seem like frauds (liquid is, lmnt, etc)

americans with their big ass water bottles and completely depleted electrolytes thinking they're "hydrating":

@realEstateTrent Examples please! Modeling, comp research data, etc.? Or just reviewing docs, drafting docs, etc.? Genuinely curious and would love to hear more - going through your example now of hiring due to heavy workloads across the board

Confession: We were fully planning on adding yet another Acquisitions Associate. I had the job listing up. Was interviewing great candidates. And then Claude made it so we basically just added the equivalent of 3 more. I have removed the job listing.

@BasedBiohacker U a dawg man

if you're going to be wildly successful there is going to have to be a day where you say fuck it and completely stop caring about what people think of you by not having the guts to make that decision you are actively delaying your own greatness no one can stop you but you.

@anishmoonka Interesting

Your brain can't tell the difference between someone criticizing you out loud and you criticizing yourself in your own head. Same brain regions fire. Same stress chemicals release. As far as your nervous system is concerned, your inner voice is a real person in the room. Psychologist Alain Morin put people in brain scanners back in 2007 and watched what happened when they talked to themselves silently. The speech and sound-processing areas of the brain lit up, the exact same ones that activate during a real conversation with another person. Your brain is both the speaker and the listener, and it takes both roles seriously. Your inner voice runs at about 4,000 words per minute. If you tried to say all of it out loud, it would take over 15 minutes. Your brain is holding full arguments with itself while you stand in line for coffee. When that voice is encouraging ("I can figure this out"), it wakes up the part of your brain that plans ahead and stays calm, and triggers dopamine, the same feel-good chemical you get from eating something you love. When the voice turns harsh ("I always mess this up"), your brain flips to threat mode and floods your system with cortisol, the stress hormone your body normally saves for real danger. One study in Scientific Reports tracked people's daily inner thoughts and found that negative, past-focused thinking raised stress hormone levels even when nothing bad was happening around them. Just the words in their head were enough to put the body on alert. Ethan Kross at the University of Michigan found one easy fix. When people referred to themselves by name ("What should Sarah do here?") instead of saying "I," the self-focused part of their brain quieted down within one second. No extra mental effort. His team published the finding in Scientific Reports in 2017, and it worked whether people were looking at upsetting images or replaying painful memories. One pronoun swap changed how the brain processed the emotion. Your brain also physically reshapes itself around these patterns. Brain scans have picked up visible structural changes after just six weeks of consistently shifting how people talk to themselves. Neurons that fire together wire together. Researchers at Queen's University estimated in 2020 that the brain produces about 6,200 separate thoughts per day. The words you wrap around those thoughts are deciding which circuits grow stronger and which ones quietly fade, thousands of times before you go to sleep tonight.

@IsabellaMDeLuca It’s impossible in today’s society to pick some you think is healthy

Lululemon, along with other legging brands, have forever chemicals in their clothes. These chemicals don’t just wash out. They don’t break down. And once they’re in your body— they don’t leave. These can be absorbed through the skin, which makes it worse when you learn that these forever chemicals are heavily concentrated in the crotch region of leggings. The most absorbent, sensitive skin on your body. Worn tight. For hours. Sometimes with no barrier. PFAS are linked to: hormone disruption, thyroid issues, live and kidney damage, increased cancer risk, and infertility. I hate it here.

life is way to special to waste it by playing it all safe.
