A few months ago, with a half marathon coming up this fall, I decided it was a good chance to cut my weight down, with the general logic of "long run easier if weigh fewer lbs."

(cw: some discussion of weight loss/diet to follow.)

Not trusting any one strategy, I decided I'd leave nothing to chance and opted for a combined approach - as low carb as is practical, intermittent fasting whenever possible, and lots of physical activity - trying to make sure I work up a decent sweat at least 5 days a week. (my job helps with this a lot.) I'm 2 months into this process, with a little under 4 to go. and am down from 200lbs to a little under 180lbs. So the good news is my self-directed and administered weight loss plan is going great with 4 months to go. the downside is while there have been benefits (excellent command of my sleep schedule, few energy shortages), my mood/disposition and overall depression level have not changed in the slightest. Ah well.....worth a shot lol

been amusing myself by imagining a Homeland s1 type scenario where a s*icide bomber kills the entire white house core staff except for tulsi, because she's never in the room.

What level of conspiracy brained are we talking here? Like "clouds aren't real, they pipe those in at night" level or "a conspiracy killed JFK" level

I don't think this screenshot equals "is a zionist" but it definitely wasn't not a tone deaf answer.

I know it's cliched but....physical activity (not necessarily exercise). I try to work up a sweat one way or another six days a week. It's not fixed all my problems but it definitely helps with keeping my shit together overall.

Zohran has really impressed me across the board. It's wild he's only 33.

if you're telling me 5 million Americans went outside at the same time and only one of them got shot and killed that's basically miraculous
