@2turniphead63 Taking my first break now. Feels good. Enjoy the day

Amazing how much your gone dos decline as the heat rises

Once every couple weeks I splurge/cheat and today went to a favorite burger/sandwich place. Sign read "no tomatoes on any salad/sandwich/etc due to the price" Wtf this sounds kinda crazy to me

@DoctorPerin Absolutely

Has social media ever helped you be a better person?

@Kensetsu6 Maaaaan.... I helped a friend out doing (or trying to) do this one weekend and patience too

Cardio, but it’s all arms, no legs.

@beauhightowerdn New goals

Man. I'm about to be 43 and I can actually feel myself falling out of my physical prime. No HRT and I've been able to fight it off through my late 30s and Early 40s by staying active, but not mid 40s ... I am starting to get weaker in the gym, the salt and pepper is becoming mostly gray and I don't think I could even touch the rim anymore. You somehow in your mind know it will come one day but for it to actually get here is a crazy experience. I see why people have midlife crisis now, because you start to lose the version of yourself that you have been for your whole adult life.

@Oroborous2 Looks awful. I keep seeing a mangy fox once in a while that I'm going to put down if I get the chance. Hate to see them suffer and wish that there was a way to cure them that was easy.

@swimbekoz I dont know. Going to follow up with dec later :(

Might call it in later with the boys

@ImKingGinger The best.

Bob Saget was a notoriously vulgar comedian. His fatherly Full House role was often an area of conflict for him. While everyone tried to roast Bob Saget with equally vulgar jokes, Norm Macdonald roasted him with clean dad jokes. Very few comedians understood what was happening. Bob Saget got it. Other comedians got it. But the crowd didn't. You never heard that because the TV edit added laughter when there was very little, which took away from the hilarious nature of the awkward room. I'm thankful Comedy Central released this full clip without the fake laughter so we could hear the room and realize just how much of a genius Norm really was. x.com/ComedyCentral/…

@NoContextHumans Right hook

If I’m the kid’s parents I’m throwing hands at the priest idc

Rage quit nose piece adjustment and going back

@nntaleb A while back I was on a pool deck with my brother for my first day of practice (he had been on the team for a semester already) I told him discretely "at least I can keep up with him" (guy looked to be in less shape than the guy in the video My brother laughed No chance

Strong people don't necessarily look like strong people. Though actors & social media health grifters must look the part. (Just as surgeons may not look like surgeons).

Lately I've been drinking some protein shakes that have 30 grams of protein and they taste fine. Low carb. Finding success with them. Recently for desserts I've been microwaving frozen fruit (I'm fond of cherry strawberry combo) and then adding some scoops of unsweetened Greek yogurt and adding a splash of vanilla

What are the best foods on a protein vs calories ratio? Same with fibre....

@2turniphead63 Solid combination.

@parmita youtu.be/-LGHtc_D328?si… Your mother raised a beautiful helper.

I’m grateful my mom is with me. She fell asleep next to me. I went to the other room. And now I am crying and I don’t know what to do. my heart is broken to pieces. I’m autistic. I feel things deeply in ways people don’t understand. I feel for others. I feel the world. And it’s so broken. for the ones who don’t have their mom with them today because of cancer. Today is for the moms who aren’t here. The ones whose kids are scrolling past everyone else’s brunch photos. The ones whose daughters are getting married without them. The ones who never met their grandkids. The ones who memorized their last good day without knowing it was the last good day. Cancer didn’t take them gently. It took them slowly, and then all at once, and it took pieces of them before it took the rest their hair, their appetite, their ability to pick up their kid, their voice on the phone, the version of them their family knew. And we stood there. With our scans and our scores and our staging. Watching. We did not have enough to give them. We still don’t. That is the truth of today. To everyone missing their mom today: she should be here. She was supposed to be here. I am so sorry she isn’t.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ But she is so proud of you. And I can’t go back in time. I can’t do it. But I can help change the future of the ones who don’t know they’ll be next. I’m sorry if this is disheartening. I’m sorry it’s weird to share a selfie of my pain. But it’s not just my pain. It’s the pain of so many people who are avoiding feeling it deeply. Who internalized the grief. Who never truly moved on. This world disgusts me. I’m not okay.

@martinmrmar @goodreads Maniac Magee is another good one around that level.

@goodreads Yes, when I was 13 and first came to America with my family. I had to learn English on my own so I could manage going to a local High School... I found this book in a school library and read it completely on my own in English. I was so proud of myself and hooked on reading.

Do you have an early memory of when you fell in love with reading?
