My wife is visiting her senile uncle with her mom for the next couple days. The kids spent the day getting babysat by a daycare center. I spent my day xmas shopping and playing a computer game that allows the Inca to conquer Europe. I am dismantling christendom and making France force-adopt guinea pig meat as the new national dish while listening to Mele Kalikimaka alone. It was a perfect day.






Nutrition: Concepts and Controversies 16e by Frances Sizer & Ellie Whitney, 2018

More conversational than a pure-science text, this book explores the essentials of nutrition--including how the body breaks down and uses food, food safety, sports nutrition and special nutritional needs throughout the human life cycle--and asks you to weigh in on relevant debates, such as world hunger, chronic diseases, dietary guidelines and eating patterns.

We've got a bunch of feral red-headed green parrots in Sunnyvale. I hear and see usually about 20 at a time. They're like a biker gang.

Masculinity as performative assholery. Hardly new from this crowd, but still striking how they psych each other up into a pathetic sort of try-hardism. It’s almost pitiable, or would be, if their massive wealth didn’t give them opportunities to take out their insecurities on everyone else.
