Driving to Arizona from Montana and a gas station bathroom had a sign that said, "Don't flush colostomy bags. Please place them in the trash." This is a troll sign, right?

@TakeThiamine @DionysianAgent Crazy that pre-civilization hunter-gatherers with extremely diverse diets didn't do keto and somehow were incredibly fit—Olympian even. Who would have thought?

@wit_tomahawk @DionysianAgent Lifelong athlete and I had the same issues. This guy doesn’t disagree with keto hurting physical performance, but he’s too invested now to cede much ground. It can be an okay elimination diet. It helps in autoimmune and neurological issues—sometimes. But it’s terrible longterm.

I've done keto 3 times in my life. It is absolutely garbage except that it helped me unfuck my carb loads, maximize macros (protein/fiber) and appreciate fruit more (lmao). If you're operating at anything close to my level of fitness* keto is shooting yourself in the dick. *1x week 1.5 hr long heavy boxing training *1x week hour long olympic boxing 'running' session *3x week 45 min heavy duty (Mentzer) style lifting Thanks for the funny thread though, v entertaining

@wit_tomahawk Just looked at the low water 2021 data from NOAA and early June should be stable for you, still cold and stable from the dam (I’m assuming youre in the tail waters but even if not it’ll be fine first half June at least, fuzzier second half).

@RamboVanHalen It's literally this. This is it. This is the only fucking book a writer in Hollywood needs to read to make a good movie. But of course they won't and thus dies film.

Rambo Van Halen@RamboVanHalen·
I put in 25 years. It would be 26 but I haven't worked yet this year and I'm not sure I'll ever work in entertainment again. The writing has been on the wall for quite some time. But it's a sad thing--especially since the collapse of Hollywood is (mostly) self inflicted. Outsiders like to blame the unions and burdensome regulations. That's not exactly wrong, but the big reason is that Hollywood stopped making a product that people wanted to consume. Film is a funny thing. On one hand it's art. But on the other it's a mass consumer product--like a car, or a soft drink. But unlike a typical consumer product, it was something we consumed together. We went to a special place, and sat with strangers, and watched stories. And those stories infected us. They entered our minds and our souls and they implanted things. Deep things. Ancient things. Timeless things. Things like heroism and beauty and love and fear and sex and death and adventure and tragedy and pain and injustice and all the things that make up our dreams. There's a thing we call "cinematic language". It's how we tell a story with images. (And BTW if you want to learn more about the language of visual media, read Scott McCloud's excellent book Understanding Comics.) An odd thing about cinematic language is that it's the same language as dreams. There's a scene in Christopher Nolan's Inception where Leonardo DiCaprio is explains to (the tragic) Ellen Page how dreams work. But what he's really describing is cinematic language. Inception is really a movie about movies BTW. While it's far from my favorite film, I think it's the perfect film. Because the suspension of disbelief is perfect. You believe the plot about dreams because you're familiar with how movies work--maybe not consciously--but you know. Everyone knows. Maybe not everyone has seen a movie, but everyone has dreams. Another odd thing about film: you don't "watch" a movie, you look into it. And you put yourself inside it. Now you're in the dream. And you're hypnotized. Because movies do that too. The motion--the moving images--they hack your brain. We're programed to pay attention to moving things. Even when the things aren't real. Even when they're just light reflected off a screen. So we'd go to these special places--these movie theaters--these temples--and we'd sit, and we'd "watch" and we'd enter the dream. And we did it together. And after the movie was over--and the lights came on, and we'd file out over the sound of popcorn crunching under our feet--we were different. We had become transformed. Sometimes we were changed in minor ways. But sometimes not. Sometimes we were changed in profound ways. And we did it together. Before the movie we were a room full of strangers. But after--on the way out the door--we all had something in common. Because we shared an experience. We'd shared the dream. And we'd all become transformed. And then tech got involved... Streaming turned movies from a communal experience to a personal experience. And that's an issue, but they did something else too. They started developing movies as if they were tech products. But you can't apply a KPI to a dream. At least, not successfully anyway. Because dreams don't work like that--nor does any sort of art. And that's a funny thing about making movies. You try to make the best film you can, but at the end of the day you have no idea if it's good or if it's going to be successful. You just have to hope the audience likes it. Now, you can design a movie that will appeal to a preexisting audience. Marvel movies are like this. There's a large group of fanboy nerds that will see every single one. You can count on them every time. Just like you can count on the Gay Oscar Bait crowd (for example). But those movies are slop. But Hollywood became specialists in slop. Because slop is safe. Because you could apply KPI style metrics to slop. As a result they lost the audience. And the audience is probably never coming back. I wrote a book in 2024 (that was published in 2025). While writing, I thought of it as my farewell to the industry. But looking back, what I was actually writing was a eulogy for Hollywood--the place where dreams were made. And so it goes...

Production days in LA are down nearly half and the entertainment industry is feeling it. A friend, who has been working as an editor for over 25 years, compared it to a coal mine shutting down.

@SlumRNA_Dog Lmao. I had a client one time w/ solar. Dumbfuck ended up caving 35k in concessions (drop in closed price) bc he was too cheap to pay off solar (43k left owed). And crashed out when he still had to pay broker fees. They are truly God's dumbest wealthy.

You really have to do business with a boomer to know what we’re talking about. They’re the king of spending a dollar to save a dime. They’ll try and sell you a house with a leaky roof, throw a fit when you find out about it, throw another when you ask them to fix it…
Ava@roseanneluver18

Are the millennials who endlessly blame boomers specifically for home prices being so high gonna make sure when they go to sell their house in 30 years that they lower the price significantly from its inflated value out of the goodness of their hearts lol

Super annoying that Bennet's Phylactery blocked me for calling out the LDS Church's role in the 3rd worldization of Utah. Probably won't ever recover as an account. There is NO audience for truth in the Utah sphere. No audience for truth among my people, the Mormons. All paths lead back to the gayification of LDS leadership as the main cause of Utah's total collapse.

@wit_tomahawk I would like to at some point but I am a violent crime victim who cannot reveal my face or voice associated with this work at the moment for security reasons. I think if I moved off of here it would be onto something like patreon to decentralize a bit for stability. Tbd 🙏🏻

Still shadowbanned. Apparently posting about the criminal invasion of Utah gets me labeled a hateful extremist on X. The only thing keeping my account going is you- my loyal patriots. I am shadowbanned to non-followers and unable to access the monetization I earned. They still take my premium money and leave my blue checkmark. Despite getting over 65 million impressions in the last week, Elon retweeting me, my content is not being served to non-followers unless YOU share it. I have never gotten paid for this work but signed up a few days ago. I was rejected, labeled as a hateful extremist, and my impressions tanked. I am so impressed you all have kept it going. Thank you!! I won’t quit. -MH🔨

I think you can tell how smart or dumb someone is by the cadence they adopt when they read out loud. Everyone has a characteristic “reading out loud” cadence that probably comes from 1 or 2 core influences from when you first learned to read. And that cadence shapes how you quietly read in your mind. And that cadence influences how you process written information, which impacts intelligence.

@SlumRNA_Dog The last i saw Hicktard was trying to promote 'desert ruralism' with this fetish for living in the Sonora. Lol. Lmao. I spent the last 4 years having these people (morons) as clients. Nobody with their head screwed on right would advocate to homestead in the desert.

Important to remind any ruraltroon that makes it their mission on here to espouse the superiority of their lifestyle that they’re effectively on a reservation for white people. Shagbark et al. were effectively trying to get you to give up on your birthright and live on The Rez.
Mr. S.T.A.R.@favelaoverlord

The US govt policy post-globalization is to: wreck the rural areas by eliminating the industry that kept them properly afloat while ‘paying them off’ with subsistence level social security/medicaid money that leaves a half-dead town with no economic vibrancy
