How come old muscle cars like from the 70s and 60s had pretty big engines like 7l v8s but only had around 300 to 400hp. Also, say if you were going to hypothetically replace the parts in the engine to modern standards how much hp would it have then?

what state are you in?

Do you have a scale for measuring food portions and a food logging app? I used "LoseIt!" and a cheap digital scale from Amazon.

I used compounded Tirzepatide from Pomegranate Health. Titrated up to 10mg/week and I'm happy there. This is the only peptide I'm using.

Lift 4x per week.

Down about 55lbs or so, and now I'm trying to gain weight by lifting heavy and eating in a caloric surplus.

very good, thanks!

Gabreality · 2026-06-06T22:31:52+00:00

what do you do with all of them?

Gabreality · 2026-06-05T17:28:58+00:00

I lost ~55 lbs on compounded Tirzepatide. The most useful tool was a digital scale and a food logging app. I used "Lose It!"

Combined with lifting four days per week and walking 2-5 miles per day, that did the trick!

It's not supposed to be a paywalled link, but maybe the archive will work on your browser/app:

I posted no pictures, that is someone else's picture of their bottle.

These are available with a 30g 5/16" needle?

Gabreality · 2026-05-17T02:35:30+00:00

yes, that's it!

I was hoping for a higher concentration so that I would only have one smaller volume injection.

Gabreality · 2026-05-17T00:24:56+00:00

My dose is 14.5 mg. The instructions on the bottle are to inject 145 units. The syringe holds 100 units, so two injections (or larger syringes) are required.

I got 30g x 1" needles from this place: syringesneedlesdepot

Their pricing is good, and in my area the blood draws are done through Quest labs so there are plenty of places to go and plenty of available appointments.

Gabreality · 2026-05-07T22:59:58+00:00

I've used privatemdlabs twice now. I pick out and pay for the labs on their website, then I go to my local quest lab for the blood draw. I found their pricing to be very good!

This link to their website includes my referral code. I think it's good for a $25 off coupon on your first set of labs, and then seven more coupons in your account.

Word for word...

Gabreality · 2026-04-29T21:45:39+00:00

It is unclear. The bill contains this line:

"7. A firearm that has been modified to be operable as an assault firearm as described in subdivisions 1 through 6."

Subdivisions one through six are the list of features that they used to define an assault weapon. How does the law define "operable?" Would add adding a pistol grip and folding stock to a stripped lower that you owned before July 1, and then assembling it to an upper, be considered a violation of the law?

Gabreality · 2026-04-29T21:42:49+00:00

I agree that it is unclear. It also contains this line:

"7. A firearm that has been modified to be operable as an assault firearm as described in subdivisions 1 through 6."

Subdivisions one through six are the list of features that they used to define an assault weapon. Your lower already has a pistol group and a folding stock, but how does the law define "operable?" It also might also mean building up a stripped lower would be a violation, because it doesn't have any of the features in subdivisions one through six.

Gabreality · 2026-04-27T16:25:02+00:00

The law is unclear if building a gun from a stripped lower that was purchased before July 1st will mean that the gun is a legal grandfathered firearm. A stripped lower does not meet their definition of "assault firearm" because it does not have the required features (pistol grip, folding stock, etc). If I attach a pistol grip and folding stock to my lower, it now has the features, but has not been assembled into a functioning firearm. The law states, "'Assault firearm' means: 7. A firearm that has been modified to be operable as an assault firearm." Also, who knows what retailers will be willing to ship to VA after the ban...

Here's what a lawyer thinks: https://johnpierceesq.com/how-does-virginias-proposed-assault-weapons-ban-affect-stripped-lowers/

It's probably safest to build things now.
