In my 30s I've learned that alcohol is a pretty dangerous and not terribly fun drug.

I'll still drink maybe once a week (but that is a beer or 2, or maybe a bottle of wine).

For the most part, ketamine is a safer and more fun substitute

I did a research chemical that was supposed to be like LSD, called 2C-P.

May or may not be legal depending on where you live, but I'd be weary of doing it again. I overheated like a motherfucker. And although it was potent, it didn't feel like a clean high you get with LSD.

I agree with the other poster. I'd much rather do drugs that have a long, proven history as opposed to something that is relatively unproven.

Great question - but semi related, I really enjoy sim racing despite rarely driving a car in real life (maybe once a fortnight).

The metaverse doesn't appeal to me, or most people, but there's something to be said about jumping in VR and taking a car to a track virtually with a good force feedback wheel, nice load cell pedals and a H-pattern shifter.

Heck I even enjoy euro truck simulator from time to time.

If you eat less calories than you burn, you will lose weight. That's just science - that works universally. I don't really think these fad diets are a good way to view health. There's a lot more to a healthy diet than just losing weight - your body needs carbohydrates, in fact carbs should be your primary source of calories and foregoing all carbs isn't a healthy way to lose weight.

it's just calories in vs calories out. A better diet paired with more exercise.

Get an idea of how many calories you burn in a day (you can search for a BMR calculator to give you a ballpark), and eat less than that. I started going on runs, and eating a slightly healthier diet.

I was looking for a bbq thermometer yesterday and all I could find was smart wifi/Bluetooth thermometers. Why the fuck does a thermometer need wifi/Bluetooth?!?

You sure get a lot of streams when you cater to the lowest common denominator
