My 91 year old mother is planning to go protest.
Last year, due to a few things (I can get into that in a separate post), I missed my running goal for the year. I set a goal of 2,500 miles. I missed that goal by about 600 miles.
This year, I'm upping the goal to 2,800 miles and I will NOT, no matter what, miss this goal.
Already, in 2026, the past two days, I've run a total of 26.34 miles. Heading back out in a few hours. I have a long way to go. And it's cold! 😂
2026 is not going to beat me like 2025 did.

So this might not be the best medium for that kind of conversation.

Also a fan of alternative lifestyles here.
That is a great #tip and a #question .
I am intrigued. Hard to argue with most of what I have read so far.
So first of all, this is quite a lot of #context and #information . It would also be very hard to not make any #assumptions without having been exposed to it all for an extended period of #time .

So far I got the feeling that you have either completly rejected somewhat #traditional-funding , or maybe it didn't happen due to #tone . Many #projects closed due to lack of #funding look like a #symptom of this. As someone who would love to fully dedicate myself to the #goals that I am truly #passion ate for, but still likes to eat and at the same time has feelings of opposition to some possible #solutions , I highly #empathize with it.

🧵1/ 🛑 Before You Spend Another Dollar on Weight Loss… Learn About the “Net Calories” Trap
The billion-dollar #weightloss industry thrives on confusion, false hope, and repeat customers.
➡️One of their most misleading tactics? The misuse of “net calories.”
In my 20yrs of experience as a fitness professional, this misunderstood metric is one of the most underreported reasons people abandon their #goals.
🔻The Problem:
Some weight loss and #fitness apps push “net calories” like gospel, feeding…

"trans ally": vague, clichéd, often claimed by those doing the bare minimum
"trans henchperson": implies loyal, action-oriented support. Suggests you may have a Tommy gun under your coat.

But! Felicitously, “noölogy is confronted by counterthoughts” — note the plural — which are violent in their acts, discontinuous in their appearances, and the existence of which is mobile in history.” In other words, *there is an escape hatch from the Idea and the image of State thought it incontinently propagates across the entire field of the real*.
D&G tell us that these counterthoughts “are the acts of a ‘private thinker,’ as opposed to a public professor,” and they name three candidates:
Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, “or even” Chestov (the Russian existentialist generally rendered in English as “Shestov,” born Yeguda Lev Shvartsman). And then this gorgeous encomium: “Wherever they dwell, it is the steppe or the desert. They destroy images.”
Wow: #goals, right? I’m sure as shootin’ not here to tell you what to do, but I think we could all do a whole lot worse than to live in such a way that it is said of us that wherever we dwell, it is the steppe or the desert.
