Meat and fats are expensive. Not having enough variety of foods that excite you will make it incredibly hard for people to stay on it, or so i was led to believe

In order to succeed you need enough variance to stay with it, from what i remember reading before doing it the single most common reason anyone fails a diet is because most diets that have restrictions fail to provide enough variety to keep people satisfied. Something about diminishing returns and how we are built to crave a variety of foods so that our ancient ancient ancestors didnt die from losing a single source of nutrients

I will admit, there are a lot more options of keto specific foods than when i was on it.

The bread products ive seen for keto are amazing compared to the dense heavy eggy elastic loafs i was able to find

Was only trying to put 1300 dollars into a more palatable frame of reference

If you are asking it trying to get a sense of how other people view that age, you might want to assist with who are the people around you that are in the same age bracket and think about each of them when they are with you. How’s do they act, so they do anything childish. Do they seem different from how they were 4 years ago

I think you are a young person at that age. I’m 20 years older than you.

When i was your age, 911 happened. The world did not feel nearly as complex as your first 5 years as an adult have been.

How old you feel can change on a lot of things but man you have had to deal with a lot in those last few years and today is a bigger wtf Than the last 4 years, even before that COVID you had to deal with the first Trump administration (assuming you are in America) so where have you got to live with the I’m a young adult starting out in the world mindset? It has felt like one looming that after another.

Unless you are one of those that have been able to turn your brain off and not pay attention to the world around you, i have great sympathy for young adults like you. I think you are going to be the generation that defines the future, it might take another 30 years but you and others your age are going to have some strong opinions when you get into positions of leadership and i think it will be great for everyone when you get there.

You feel old, but i promise you that you aren’t old, that’s just exhaustion from life and maybe it’s the way generations are getting shorter.

Tech is where the world has been since the dot.com bubble and it reshaped the world. You were born at the beginning of a line of demarcation in history. I was born in in the pocket before that where the people that taught me didn’t grow up in a world that looks like today.

The Internet in your pocket is a new era and you are going to be one of the people that defines what modern humans are.

Products of an environment that changes every 6 months.

You are probably starting to see the world looking at people younger than you in a way you have never felt before, the bandits of DOGE are younger than you.

The highest paid athletes are starting to be younger than you

You are cruising through a threshold that might be hard to grasp.

But you are not old.

Not to me or many other people

If it bothers you know that how old someone comes across as really isn’t related to your physical age.

You can continue to think of yourself as a young woman for a while yet, but you still likely never stop feeling younger than your actual age. I know people 15 years older than me that act younger than i feel.

Not all, but a big enough number of women have told me 26 is when they stopped feeling like a kid, but many people have a concern with not being in their 20s, it really doesn’t mean much i promise you that you can feel great about your age no matter what it is and that the challenges in life that you need to solve for, and the solutions you need to use, are what make us feel younger or older than you are

Your phone is probably worth that much

Sybian doesn’t do everything it could do, so i didn’t want to call it the ultimate. But it does not seem to have any contenders that aren’t knock offs so it does feel like a Pinnacle as a vibrator if not as a sex toy

I wanted to show for what comes next. Maybe I’m wrong and there isn’t, but a sybian that can view your reactions and learn each users unique preferences would be an improvement

A sybian as the hips of a sex robot maybe? Like its fine, but its just a box , you get on to get off and then it is done with you. Theres no after care or anything else.

I guess a portable discreet version will require entirely new components that we probably cant manufacture yet, or are cost prohibited.

I dunno what the ultimate is, so penultimate seems a good choice to use if i can see improvements to it that dont yet exist

You could shut the fuck up then instead of damaging a space called “no stupid questions” you started punching down at this kid.

Seriously go take a time out sit in s corner and actually think about what you have done

What an insensitive take

That’s kid icarus and al uncer jrs racing for me.

I remember my grandmother playing those games with us and she was exactly the person who would gesture with her hands as she was trying to play the game. When the character turned or jumped, her hands would do the same thing, she fling the controller out of her hands at least once that i remember trying to jump to a new platform in kids Icarus

It wasn’t well received because of the changes Spielberg finishing it had on the project.

There’s like 3 or 4 points where the movie should never ended but Spielberg doesn’t do those types of movies

Probably a group of engineers so maybe not all men, Sybian is just like the penultimate vibrator, would be a fun engineering challenge, but it’s also a marketable challenge which would be why it exists

I’m surprised i haven’t seen anyone talk about another movie, AI

One of the main characters is Gigolo Joe played by judge law

That’s exactly the wrong take.

Provide something that isn’t what they need in order to fill a need they have.

That’s like giving someone drugs instead to masque symptoms of working in the problem and addressing it.

But that’s not right either. If providing sexual encounters was real and done appropriately then there this situation might still exists. If it’s the physical space and intimacy that are triggering, then a robot is a very good choice if it provides some of the missing human experiences that missing out on when desired make for more broken people

And if that Sybian could pick you up, and stroke your thighs, massage your breasts, have hips and legs to simulate the sexual positions that it can’t provide you, while still being what it is, there is a huge room for improvement on the design of the sybian and what great things it does

How its made

Haven’t seen these as alternate options

Didn’t go so long to get ruined

I think it’s safe to say they had plenty of rope left before that were danger of that happening

Additionally, The Ranch from netflix hit very similarly in how they mixed comedy and then shit getting real very quickly.

I’m not unhappy they removed the actor from the show, but it’s too recent for me to be able to recommend it given the problems with him. Rather unfortunate

Watch Mash.

Yes it will have some very cringe aspects you will have to get over.

But i still think it’s the best show ever produced and it is often just as relevant any time you watch it or rewatch it.

The reason is they really dealt with some very difficult issues in surprisingly well done ways.

I could go on for a long time but i do really do think this show has everything.

It’s comedy and then it fucking hits you right in the feels with no mercy

And the character development from many, though not all, is great.

But if you do watch it pay attention to the tone difference between them in the operating room and outside of it.

The show runners managed to get some concessions about when and where to use the laugh track and iirc they almost never have laugh track in the operating room.

Characters change and the show is set up that it just makes sense that the 4077 would be different at different times.

Hawkeye Pierce as lower ranked officer being the Chief Surgeon is proven many many times over in the show in spite of other characters that outrank him.

Another reason to watch it is to check out the sheer number of cameos, >!from pat morita, patrick swayze, leslie nielson and many more!<

Its a real cinephile experience seeing some actors before they got famous (though I’m not sure how obvious those cameos will be to too many people anymore)

And yes I’m incredibly biased as this is my favorite show of all time
