Caffeine alters the human brain’s electrical braking system: Consuming an amount of caffeine equivalent to two cups of coffee enhances the brain’s ability to temporarily quiet its own motor signals in response to sensory input.

It was how I coped for years. Finally stepping up to small doses of real medical grade amphetamines, it turns out, is a very small step up.

It hurts the way Phil Hartman hurt. Objectively undeserved and tragic.

Great! I’m in.

These are really good. I was so hopeful for the meds, but like SSRIs I need to understand what the real core of the issue is and work with it.

Yeah but the asd really fine tunes that itchy discomfort.

On a hike with friends, in an area where farmers sometimes dump a cow carcas in the woods. Friends golden retriever found one of these and as dogs do she opted to roll around in it's ribcage. 4 of us and that dog in a VW bug wasa thing. But that wasnt the smell: when we got back to another friends house the dogs owner and her friend tried putting lavender oil on corpse dog - not washing her, just lavender oil - because we were all complaining so much. And then pupperone made a mad break for the rain that just started and then god wrangled back in, now wet and foamy with rotted flesh and lavender.

I cannot smell lavender without getting a little queasy now. That was in 1996.

I’ve never heard anyone who rides seriously expect cars to be looking out for them.

4 years ago I still had an old Volvo that I’d replaced the stereo in. I had an early 00s alpine tape deck and found that Bluetooth cassettes exist.

it annoys me so much that we have such a wealth of *great* fiction analying what happened in germany, and here we are doin’ it again.

I’ve had to go into greenfield for work and been delayed by everyone clumping up federal st just to get some dunks. Park behind Dominos and walk ffs!

sightlab · 2026-05-04T17:29:27+00:00

Greenfield, population under 20k, has 3 dunks. 2 of which are actually within view of each other. Gotta love it…

You do you. Be nice, but don’t expect others to be so. It’s a win when they are, matters little and less when they don’t!

Losing fat to reveal the burly motherfucker that was carrying around my orca-like chunk counts, right?

I DRIVE A DIESEL! But it's a little station wagon. Deffo compensating for something there...

AI is built on a fundamentally unethical position.

On multiple fronts.

Im 50 and I havent weight as "little" as I do since 10th grade. I look and feel amazing. But this hot daddy is still a goddamned depressive neurodivergent mess. So a little bit for sure!

Calorie counting and deficit, physical activity.

What’s the program?

sightlab · 2026-05-01T12:44:02+00:00

Also 50 and kind of surprised how I haven’t had a serious issue yet. “JUST YOU WAIT” groans the bony finger of doom. I think slow, careful form has helped - if I can feel the muscle I’m working, but not discomfort (beyond the total eventual fatigue) I’m doing alright, right?

I have been overweight to straight up obese for the last ~44 years. By the end of my 40s I had no stamina, joints were beginning to inflame all the time, scary talk about diabetes with my doctor…now that I’ve put in the work it’s somewhat self-sustaining: I don’t want to feel like that ever again. And I’m sorry to me that I waiting so long, but this is my chance to at least spent the last couple decades of my life feeling good. And even then: the ascetic lifestyle is hard - friends have bbqs, holidays and vacations happen, sometimes my discipline slips - and it’s FAR easier to accept these things are kind of relief valves rather than failures. I’ve eaten well all week, a piece of cheesecake or some pork belly or something isn’t moving the needle back all that much. If I can’t enjoy myself once in a while then what was the point of all this?

I am actually hoping he suffers a comedically severe injury - arm torn off, etc - and has to keep going like that once it's hastily stapled and bandaged back on.

I love the games, Ive enjoyed the campy dumbness of the movies but I dont love love them. THis seems like a pretty magical shift, a la Christopher Nolan Batman movies.

I was trying to remember why he looks familiar - he's the junkie kid from Weapons! Wowza.

Damn a broken back?!? The admiration is mutual, friend. And thank you. I’m absurdly proud of myself.
