entirely serious, in order: 1. Eat as much red meat and eggs as you can. B12, EPA/DHA and choline deficiency lead to anxiety/nervousness and brain fog. Many people starved of these. 2. Exercise 3. Paradoxically, the only way to have more energy is to do more
without drugs... what is the greatest weapon against anxiety and depression??

Lots of people want to ban factory farmed meat, or make it more expensive. While they're (I think) well meaning, they're basically going to perpetuate a classism that gets much darker if you believe, as I do, that these foods are vital to brain health.

So you could call it spiritually bankrupt meat but you have still to grapple with "should only the well off be able to access more-optimal nutrition at cost" again that's contingent on a belief that many people, even very wealthy ones, do not believe wrt importance of nutrition

By 12 years old, you will have spent 75% of your lifetime face-to-face time with your child. The majority of your time in their life is already behind you. Homeschooling gives you more time, if you want it.
On Homeschooling: I think we will give our children an excellent education. Its "socialization" is complete too. And the freedom it gives now will teach them to trade time only at great price. BUT the greatest boon is just how many hours we get to spend with them every day.

The north side of the house has just 3 windows and a door, because we planned ~8 years ago to some day build more onto that side. So in a way part of the original plan is coming to fruition

Aspect of the desire crisis: Everyone wants to be pursued, no one wants to pursue
my general impression so far from being on dating apps is that these men wants to chased and pursued like a little lady but the problem is I’m the little lady here

What's a good way to allow watermarks in Camera Nocta? It will show the preset and any settings (shadows, highlights, tint, warmth, noise reduction, etc) in case people want to share recipes for looks I kind of like top left, bottom right, like playing cards

At what point did people start acting like they could just sit back and order this stuff from some kind of giant catalog of aesthetics, and not go out there to build it themselves? Oh you *want* this kind of future? Stop posting and get to work, then.
