I named my cat spyro

I could go for personal quad copters. Imagine leaving work early on a friday and packing up the oll’ whirly bird and heading up to the cottage? that would be awesome.

we’re 2/3 of the way to the expanse, just need belters!

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10144565/ Here’s a good start on “NNS”/non nutritional sweeteners.

Honestly its probably not a very big impact, its more of a “its possible” sort of thing.

Its a really interesting field!

Ya thats a fair point!

ya I did a lit review for my thesis a few years back, plenty of papers on microbes metabolizing these compounds, shouldn’t be hard to find.

FYI there is no such thing as truly “zero calorie”. Sure, we can’t use aspartame and those “0 calorie” sweeteners for energy BUT our gut microbes can metabolize those compounds into products that we can then use for energy. So one way or another you’re still taking in calories. Now do you gain more energy from straight sugar vs the sweeteners? I have no idea, I haven’t studied this in years. I just like to bring up that little bit of trivia whenever anyone brings up zero calorie drinks in conversation :)

well we can’t have that now can we?

I prefer RPG, interesting narratives and “experiences”. I also used to be really into multiplayer games like halo 3, MW2, battlefield 4/bad company2 and even rainbow 6 siege. Whats turned me off of all that is aggressive monetization and super competitive sweat fests. It feels like all the fun/soul in those “good oll’ days” games just isn’t there anymore. Peak fun for me was maxed out halo 3 custom games and they just don’t make them like that anymore.

well yeah. In this world that we live in money is freedom and if you don’t have it your options are severely limited. For those that don’t have it it getting it is the only thing that matters.

jobs, housing, cost of being alive… honestly what is there to be happy about? A lot of people did everything right, have good jobs and are responsible but most of these problems are completely outside their control, of course people are depressed. everything really is just shit.

Youtube bad.

dim sum and they have a clicky jaw

NHL hitz with bobble head mode.

that was only a month ago? I need to unplug.

It happened after Harambe got shot, we ended up in the bad timeline.

its “I could not care less” and not “I could care less”. This one drives me nuts

I’m stoked for cheap cars! hopefully they’re reliable in winter and on shitty roads.

I wish they had DLC plans, I loved this game. The endgame set-up is perfect, one DLC could be the Karlach/wyll ending, one could be helping Gale with his thing… Theres endless material there
