I'm not anorexic. Im a healthy 225. I love eating. I just sometimes forget that it's something I need to do everyday. π

I like my smartwatch. I'm extremely ADHD as well as hypoglycemic. I have a lifelong history of not eating, then working/playing/exercising until i get woozy or pass out. I'm a terrible judge of what I actually need to stay functional. Always have been. I'm stubborn and will just try to power through things when I actually can't.
The watch helps me track my sleep/rem cycles and lets me know when I've been neglecting my health. It lets me know when I'm getting stressed and need to take it easy, and it estimates how many calories I've expended on a given day.
The watch and pager functions are nice for reducing screen time when I should be working, but as a health monitor I find it indispensable in keeping me honest with myself.
Touche.
It doesn't really matter what kind of engine it is if it's going fast enough.
Anything with enough mass and acceleration to move a human being from planet to planet in a reasonable timeframe has the kinetic energy required to wipe out a city. Once you start reaching relativistic speeds, you can take out entire planets by simply not slowing down on approach.
Akshually, there's only one Sol-ar system.
The fact is that any manned vehicle capable of interplanetary travel is by the nature of the energies involved, also a weapon of mass destruction. A spaceship is a weapon in the same way a car can be a weapon.
So either you massively restrict access to this technology, or you create a system of surveillance and defense that is so pervasive and effective that it makes 1984 look benign, OR you just say fuck everyone else and use that weapon to remove yourself from range of everybody else's weapons.
Proliferation is an existential problem for anyone in range.
If you replaced all muscle and fat in a 6'3 body with marshmallow fluff, you might end up looking a bit like trump at "225".
I'm 6'3 225 and I can assure you, I wasnt nearly that fat even when I was pushing 250. If he's actually 6'3 (he isn't) then brody is pushing 270-300 EASY. You can hide a lot of weight on a 6'3 frame, but not that much.
Congrats to the brave men and women who made that victory possible. A win for labor rights anywhere is a win for workers everywhere.
This is of course after they spent decades consolidating power, wealth and influence with those same IP laws, while snuffing out all smaller competitors.
The speed with which Americas tech CEOs have embraced this new oligarchic system is astounding. It's almost like that was the plan all along. Almost.
I've got bad knees, so running (and a lot of other sports) is out, but I live to bike. I commute every day of the year, rain sleet or snow. It's my favorite part of the day.
The most important part of staying active for me, was finding something that I actually enjoy. If I can trick my ADHD into thinking it's playtime, and not some drudgery that needs to be completed, it becomes a game, and suddenly I can focus for 10 hours straight.
