I hate ford vehicles but that model of the F-150 series was such a good one. Pull up an old beat up bronco or something but not that one! Lol

2m resolution is pretty nuts for the general population to use. I love getting my hands on some good satellite imagery.

Just got the word today at my job that the people who write reports need to remove all mention of climate related things, not even a year after they finally decided to tell that we can include it. So basically, the last legislation moved too slowly and this administration is moving rapidly to change what they finally implemented.

Just a step in the direction towards that, though. They’ll pass it, and people will still pirate. Then, they’ll claim the legislation wasn’t enough and pass another bill further encroaching on our freedom on the internet.

So we’re literally just living this book out.

Let’s hope they can recover this ecological disaster. This is awesome.

Imagine a place where you are most cozy and visit it every night when you try to sleep. And then maybe sound machines. And finally, deep breathing. Slowing your heart down through this will physically make your body want to go to sleep (so basically meditiation).

I do all of these in tandem, I have the sound machine going and I settle into my cozy part of my brain and then imagine my lungs as a cup filling up with water to the top while inhaling and then draining out as I exhale. The trick with this is to not stress yourself thinking about if you’re doing your breathing right, just try and relax and focus.

Also melatonin. But that isn’t effective for every situation.

Good luck.

To my personal knowledge of them, just a bunch of businessmen who jerk each other off basically.

If one freemason owns a business, and another finds out they do and they also have a business - there will be some sort of service from one company or the other so they can make each other money. Basically, they just support members and will give them preferential treatment over someone they don’t know.

More Nihilist than anything, if that can be considered a religion. I don’t know if there is anything past this life for us, so I can’t say for sure, so I just go with no. But obviously, I hope I’m so wrong. One day, the sun is gona expand far enough to engulf the whole earth. Literally, nothing will have ever mattered at that point. Makes my life a little easier every day when I think about pressures and stresses. A lot of people would think the opposite, but it allows me to live more in the moment. I don’t need some external pressure of being good or bad to determine how I treat people. I just do it because being nice is the right thing to do in most scenarios in life.

I get what you’re saying. The entree gets frozen, but grains and veggies should be cooked when preparing it to eat. That sounds easy enough, heavy lifting is done and pasta/rice/veggies are really easy. Thanks for the tip!

Sounds like a palatte cleanse for the nose lol. I planned on getting a coffee grinder soon so when I have some beans hanging around and it happens I’ll give this a try as well.

Meal prepping always has been something I would like to do. I’m getting to a point in life where I can work that into how I do things as well. I just have to figure out some dishes, that like you said freeze well. Any suggestions?

I know the feeling all too well. Even my little Italian grandmother does it when she cooks a big meal for the family.

It is basically impossible for me to cook for one person unless it’s a burger and fries type situation. I find it hard to cook for just myself as well.

It really tracks I feel like, the stuff I made last night that I couldn’t stand… I can’t wait to tear into for dinner tonight. It’s a fucked up world hahaha.

It’s not that I’m cooking food I don’t like. It does happen more often when the food I make isn’t exactly what I want at the moment, but it’s what I have. It could happen with basically anything though, doesn’t really matter the quality of food - after I’ve cooked it for however long I just might not want it anymore.

There are definitely a few foods I can do that with, you’re playing a dangerous game lol. But there are also some foods I think I can’t do it with, like gumbo and red beans and rice, and after the 3rd day I’m so over it even if I thought it was delicious the first two days.

Yea that might have something to do with it as well, as I mentioned in another comment I just ordered some yellow thai curry because it’s my comfort food, I might try to pick that up or Indian food does sound nice. Chicken vindaloo…uuuuuugh.

Yea, I get that completely, I did it a loooooot on the line in the kitchen. Honestly I would rather eat like that most of the time, a Frenchman would be horrified lol.

But being full from pecking at your dishes is totally different from not wanting to eat food you’ve just cooked for yourself like you said.

I’m really not associating the act of cooking with work, I really enjoy it actually, I think it’s more of the smell fatigue you mention. I’ve already ordered my comfort food (yellow thai curry), but next time it happens, I’ll give that a try. Because it’s not like I’m not hungry, I just look at it, and I’m like damn I would rather starve than eat this.
