  • For about 2 years, I was smoking at a level that was definitely bad. I would smoke 2-3 bowls in the morning, then have multiple sessions at night of 2-3 bowls each. I was going through an ounce of flower per week.

    The sheer amount of time it took to smoke that much was a waste, I mean I was watching TV while I was doing it but it was pretty garbage TV, since I wasn’t mentally present enough to watch anything good.

    I basically gave myself asthma. I never had asthma attacks before I started smoking and then I started getting them during my sessions and then I started getting them outside of my sessions.

    Anyways, I’m 3 months clean now with no plans to ever touch it again. I know that I can’t just be a joint-on-the-weekend-kind of guy. I’m no longer getting asthma attacks and I’m sleeping much better now (and I get dreams again! I missed that so much)



  • I always hear people complaining about “those kids” but I just don’t see it at the gym I go to, other than like the occasional mirror selfie. Maybe it’s just because the gym I go to isn’t the type to attract influencers?

    But also, recording yourself lift is a great way to see things that you’re doing wrong that you wouldn’t otherwise notice








  • Haven’t owned a cartridge system since I lived under parents and yeah, it was the same for me, turn it off when you’re done using it because it’ll drive the power bill up and money doesn’t grow on trees and all that. I can’t imagine systems like the SNES or N64 really drew that much power though? But as a tree hugger and an engineer, I tend to avoid any level of waste. I doubt cartridges suffer from any significant wear from being left on, since they’re just solid state electronics.

    Anything with a fan gets immediately turned off when my session ends because I’m hyper sensitive to fan noise (not sure if this is an autism thing?)
