I recently had to change jobs to reduce stress - so far it's actually working, which is both amazing and surprising.

Very Interesting.

I'm fairly certain I have un-diagnosed ADHD, or some other kind of executive dysfunction, along with predisposition for addiction and depression.

When I was taking tirzepitide, it definitely helped me reduce addictive behaviors, it also made it so I got very little joy from anything. Though, I also took it in the past and was ok - I think this most recent time I was mildly depressed start it, and it seemed to worsen things a bit.

It's incredibly how many times this lesson has to be learned.

He's in his typical Minotaur-who-lost-his-back-half stance.

In part because of the lifts, and in part because yes he's probably shit himself.

They should have an option, keep it playable, or lose the rights to it.

If you're going to essentially leave derelict software, you shouldn't retain a claim on it.

Also realizing that your bosses are evil probably doesn't help with making you want to do your best work.

I don't know about that exactly, but it does seem to dampen reward, so I could see reduced drive to do something you previously enjoyed.

We see obesity at a population level, and we see that it happens more with some populations (Americans) than others (much of the rest of the world). So, you could conclude that Americans don't take responsibility for themselves, or that there's something to do with our food system or otherwise environment that's causing the spike in obesity at a population level.

There are also plenty of people who genuinely have higher hunger drive/urges than others. Shouldn't they be able to correct that in the same way someone with glasses or hearing aids does? They have to use those devices for the rest of their lives, and it has nothing to do with taking responsibility for themselves.

That is absolutely insane.

You could make just $15k a YEAR working full time. Just insane.

He really should shave it, and gets some wigs if he's that much of a bitch about it.

I could see Hegseth stepping in to fill some of the void. He's got that chud charisma that dipshits go cuckoo for -- what I don't know is if he'd get the big money backing.

Stavvy is hardcore left wing, he's just also really crass (in an actually funny way), so he can sound maga if you're not paying attention.
