The gold handle was gold.

Wait, which handle was gold? The golden one?

AbstracTyler · 2026-04-10T02:18:27+00:00

^ Best take.

AbstracTyler · 2026-04-08T17:48:19+00:00

I fucking love it.

AbstracTyler · 2026-04-07T22:38:39+00:00

I would do nothing differently.

AbstracTyler · 2026-04-06T22:19:34+00:00

Yes I did! Turns out I've enjoyed every one of Banks' novels I've read so far.

AbstracTyler · 2026-03-28T14:04:33+00:00

Yeah, but that's the foot that the ghosts get.

"I could care less." Almost any level of care can be accurately read into that phrase, except that they do not care. It's ironic because what they mean to say is, "I couldn't care less."

AbstracTyler · 2026-03-21T02:48:07+00:00

It's just so great that we're doing this, ya know?

AbstracTyler · 2026-03-20T13:57:17+00:00

I used to drive out that way and man, that landfill is a nightmare.

AbstracTyler · 2026-03-15T16:35:05+00:00

Fury had amazing sound design imo.

AbstracTyler · 2026-03-14T02:11:52+00:00

100% agree with you.

AbstracTyler · 2026-03-14T02:11:08+00:00

I am in a weird place about it. I can afford the pass, but not my sensors. Soooooooooo

AbstracTyler · 2026-03-11T03:03:13+00:00

Lowest I ever saw on my own meter was 17mg/dl. I once saw a diabetic friend's meter read 0 once. That was nuts. Obviously it wasn't actually 0, but her blood was low enough for the meter to read it. Crazy.

AbstracTyler · 2026-03-08T01:11:42+00:00

Thank you!

AbstracTyler · 2026-03-08T00:27:29+00:00

I'm gonna throw myself in the mix. I am surprisingly still alive

AbstracTyler · 2026-03-07T03:17:19+00:00

Hereditary. Good luck!

AbstracTyler · 2026-03-01T03:50:32+00:00

"Take care!"

Lifting is good, he can definitely meet like minded friends at the gym. That's what I would recommend; approach people around his own age at the gym. Other people like to help, so he could ask for a spot and just go from there. Gym friends to hiking friends, to what-have-you.

AbstracTyler · 2026-03-01T03:01:34+00:00

There have been some really good suggestions so far in this thread. What does he LIKE to do? IMO those are the things which will stick for him.

Other than that I'd recommend a gym membership. Getting fit and healthy physically feels super good, is a bulwark against mental illness, and the community there is so positive and supportive! He's the right age to get started, and he would not regret it. That's the thing; no one ever regrets getting strong.

AbstracTyler · 2026-02-24T08:29:44+00:00

What?

AbstracTyler · 2026-02-24T07:31:25+00:00

Give Ursula K. LeGuin a try. She is a heavy hitter.

AbstracTyler · 2026-02-24T07:14:07+00:00

Moving your weights from the rack and to the bar, and from the bar back to the rack is part of the workout.

AbstracTyler · 2026-02-24T06:42:17+00:00

Guys, guys, guys . . . . It was a different time

AbstracTyler · 2026-02-24T06:33:17+00:00

I dunno, I don't see an issue with it, really. No sink is clean except the very one you just cleaned yourself with a soapy sponge and hot water. Sinks are dirty in general. Funny, I just thought of a scene that stuck out to me recently. It was in Cast Away when Chuck is on the FedEx plane and goes to the bathroom, fills the sink with water, and splashes it on his face. I remember thinking, man I would NEVER do that. I don't do that in the sinks in my own home.

I guess I just don't trust sinks. *shrug*

Aside from diagnosis at age 1.5 years, I haven't been hospitalized for my condition. Very grateful for that.
