i've been replacing meals with soylent, one or two meals a day and so far i've gone two days on just about 2k calories a day that's huge maybe if i can keep this up for a while i'll be normal-sized within the year
Anno
Wait have you been regularly going for more than two thousand calories a day for a long time or something? I know you're on your feet and moving a lot but I think that's a lot.
Pink Autism
>>128406 >normal size Buy into that body positivity so you don't have to do anything.
very comfy bang
>>128408 2000 calories a day is a lot less than what i usually eat i mean i'm a big guy regardless, even if i lose the weight i gained after high school, i'll still be a 220-pound 6'1" monster and i've stayed where i'm at currently because i have a high-energy job but also have been eating like 3k+ calories a day or so
i had success with this ketosis diet thing once but then i became allergic to shellfish and also started having weird heart things so i stopped that and then regained the weight i lost from that
this soylent stuff is the first time i've felt confident i could go 2k calories a day without being unhappy about it
Anno
I think it's somewhat uncommon for me to consume more than 2000 calories a day. And when I do it's usually because I was doing something intensive and craving food.
Pink Autism
>>128417 As someone who's 6' and at last check about 240 lbs, who eats way more than they need to, I feel it.
I need to get my diet portion of calories in/out in check I probably do enough exercise at least

I mean I don't go out of my way to exercise but between going to shows, being a manager in a restaurant, and putting away the truck twice a week, i'm not exactly sedentary 60 hours of work in the average week has also been rough but i figure it's about time i stop beeing a chubber and get hard

You've got to do the truck work by hand for some or all of it, right? That's gotta be some decent physical work.

War things are interesting This book is particularly interesting because it relates various mindsets to things outside war, too, like elections or just management of any group
33 isn't a lot i wonder how many sun tzu has in his book
sk
They're more like rules than 33 full strategies
The art of war actually contains only like 3 or 4 outright strategies It's mostly also about the way you think, not what you think
It doesn't tell you a strategy to use, it tells you how you should approach any situation, what to consider, and a few ways to exploit certain situations
sk
Which is important because neither book is actually about warfare

The small enclave of twitter gommunists I've managed to discover is pretty interesting Most of their tweets are political, but so are mine, and it's interesting to see what they think of stff stuff
I wanna replay the Dewprisms again But I wanna share it with people, too
I wonder if I just drop a twitch link on twitter, will people actually watch? I've got like 150 followers almost, surely a few might pop in and see what's up
The main issue with me reading stuff like The Art Of War is I don't actually have any real goal to use this shit to get to
I'm just reading up on a bunch of shit I won't use because I don't have anything to use it for You can't really employ this kind of thing in single player games either Multiplayer MAYBE, but the diplomatic and political aspects die in those situations because all players are trying to get the exact same thing If everyone wants world domination, alliances and truces are shaky at absolute best
It can be put into practice in terms of career in private companies and stuff, I guess, but then I need something where I want to elevate myself Lawyer isn't really a field where you need to fight people a lot, even in a metaphorical sense
Maybe if I really wanted power it could be useful, but I don't really have that kind of drive. I wouldn't turn down power, and I'd probably go for it if it was relatively easy, but I'm starting at nothing here
I can't very well start my own fucking political party either

The part I'm at right now goes into how you shouldn't ever assume someone you're against shares your values, and instead try to find out what their values are Not just so you can feel better and demonize them for theirs, but so you can better actually fight them
Showing mercy to a culture that doesn't value it is a bad strategic move, for example Showing aggression and strength to a culture that thinks it barbaric and unseemly is also a poor strategic move

too bad the chinese never took that to heart deep enough when dealing with their nomadic neighbpurs
The example used was actually some British... guy, I missed some details, who tried to put an Afghan former-ruler into power, but didn't let him ice all of the tribal leaders around Afghanistan This seems like "Oh that's just how we do it in civilized society", but they didn't see it as that at all. To the Afghans, him not ghosting all the tribal leaders was a show of weakness, proof he was not fit to lead

>>128905 there's a pretty big problem, yeah it did hit some hospitals and other organizations in the west but even after the patch and the killswitch solution, it's not going to stop anyone from just redesigning it but having the killswitch domain pre-registered. >>128908 no they all do like the easiest thing to imagine is the hospital's patient files or anything and if all that got encrypted it'd be terrible for the hospital but that's not the most relevant case, just the easiest to imagine
consider a medical products business that would have made and sold 20 million dollar MRIs to a hospital 10 years ago that would have been running XP-embedded back then and now the company has been bankrupt for half a decade and there's no way to do anything about it because the old company who embedded it can't patch it because they don't exist

what i'm saying is that there is a lot of shit and no matter what you do, you can't stop these things many times
you can't upgrade everything to make it safer you can't back it up to protect your files, and even if you did, you can't stop your medical equipment from getting fucked so the backup isn't useful you can't really do anything to completely protect against these kinds of things

My new semester started today. I've been really tired all day but my day was okay. A bunch of people were interested in hearing about my road trip which made me kind of happy.
>>129045 Yeah. I don't really have any real connections with my cohort so it was kind of nice to see they don't think I'm just some distant weirdo. They all hang out together and stuff, but I don't usually go to that stuff.
Yeah, there are 24 of us and two of us are guys. The other dude tries really hard to hang around the girls as much as possible, I think he's kind of creepy, but he doesn't seem like a bad guy. Like, unintentional creepiness.
I think pretty much everyone in my cohort is good people. They're just not really my kind of people. They're pretty close-knit and I'm just kind of on the outside. That's basically where I want to be, but I worry that people will think I don't like them.
So it just makes me happy that they don't think I dislike them.
>>129062 Yeah. That's how I operate, too. The only time they've ever seen me not composed is the day before I had an appointment at the eye doctor because I was nervous and it affected my body language I think you generally gotta keep your weaknesses close to you
especially if you want to get it in with the girls in your cohort a lot of guys think that women will respect you if you show some sensitivity but most women look at an adult guy crying that his mom didn't love him with judgmental eyes
i try pretty hard to keep myself composed in public and i think do a good job of it the recoil can hit pretty harm when i get back home though it's just pretending to be composed
月
i think there's something to respect if it can be seen that you have sensitivity, but that you handle it well and that's not really handling it well
In some ways, there's nothing wrong with it. But if you're a total wreck in public, people are going to use that against you forever, and you're going to start off lower in the power differentials of every relationship you try to enter. It's sad but people have to hide stuff like that if they want to be successful.
I wish it weren't like that, though. I'd like to be able to talk about my problems.
>>129066 Yeah, I get the feeling he's one of those "eternally friendzoned" kinds of guys for lack of a better term.
>>129071 I think emotional stability is important, but when it comes to being in public, looking stable is way more important. Like nobody in my cohort knows about my ptsd-type stuff with Teacup and maybe only two of them even know about Teacup. So I'm not 100% stable but I definitely look really stable.
oh yeah i got in some trouble once well not once i got some pretty bad vibes for telling someone she'd have really cute hair if she could get it under control, that she could do a lot of cute things with it because she had kind of frizzy hair i was trying to be nice but i think it wasn't that appreciated

i know hyperhydrosis is really bad because people are afraid to shake hands or having to take several outfits to school and change so you don't get them covered in sweat so saying that to them would be a "crap everybody knows" moment and not be very fun
