you should try starting to date and see how it goes for a bit. check out Models: Attract Women Through Honesty, Dating Essentials for Men, or Love Life by Matthew Hussey. while I haven’t read these books (I’ve read ones for women), I’ve generally found dating books to be helpful in identifying what I want and building confidence to get started.

So, I googled it. Apparently, magnetism involves the interaction between the magnetic field and an unpaired electron. The iron in our blood is bound to the heme molecule, so the magnetism is so low that is nearly undetectable. However, when we have a blood clot, there is an unbound molecule, so blood clots are very weakly magnetic (meaning, you can detect the blood clot with a big enough magnet, like in an MRI).

So the question is, what happens to iron when we digest it? And this is the point where I go “Ok you need an actual scientist to answer this”, because I didn’t study science in school. Apparently, iron starts in an oxidized ferric state (Fe3+) and our body needs to turn it into a ferrous state or bind it to a heme molecule. The + means it is in a positive state, not a neutral state, so, before it is paired, it has an unpaired electron.

But does that mean it’s so strongly magnetic it’s gonna hurt you, or is it weakly magnetic like blood clots? HOW THE FUCK DO I KNOW? How many iron videos do you expect me to watch on a Friday night?

today’s interview didn’t go well. now I’m all dysregulated, and I have a writing excerpt I haven’t started due at 5, and I’m too wired to do it.

wow you went to basically as different of a place as humanly possible

[email protected] is pretty active.

Yea there aren’t good or bad people, just good or bad decisions.

I would like work more if it came with a dog.

My mom is mentally ill and my dad has been unemployed since 2022. I’m in law school- going to go into a public service job after I graduate. I don’t think either of them are planning to live long retirements, and that’s still a potential for me. I’m single and pretty socially disabled, so I don’t know that I will ever find someone. They were pressured into marriage in their early 20s. that of course was not a thing for me (not that I was taught to date at all).

his desire to put his face on everything is so bizarre. like, why do you want your face to be associated with an agency of incompetent cronies who constantly break the law and fail to do their jobs?

I think you should start with Nixon. Start with the war on the drugs. Some people like to believe that racism “stopped” after the civil rights movement, but we just changed the way we described the targeting.

I mean, it sounds like you’re malnourished, so that does affect how your brain functions.

Maybe a book of excerpts or an anthology might be helpful, so it’s less daunting?

for me the best part was the museum below. the method of how it was designed is just as impressive as the (near) finished product.

They really will not be able to. He has fired 75-90% of many agencies’ employees. This is going to take decades fix, and every election we lose will extend that.

fair question, I’ve never been to the one in Japan. I’ve heard it’s more of a day time event there.

Feeling better-ish. Feels like something is stuck in my throat today. Interview yesterday was intense. which is weird. I don’t think they will pick me. I found out about an animal law conference in fall and now I’m reading a bunch of animal law papers.

Halloween Horror Nights is too crowded and expensive, but it’s one of the coolest things our country does. If you’re a Halloween person, you should go some year.

I’m still learning, but Rainbow Plant Life is the only reason I can make a 1/2 decent dish. To this day, I still need recipes for things I haven’t made before/in a while. Generally I think of cooking as a “You get out of it what you put into it” kind of deal. If you want good food, it’s going to cost money and time.

Production caps, energy expenditure caps, more efficient redistribution systems. Basically “produce what we need and then stop.” Redirect energy from acquiring more resources to developing intellectual thought and artistic talent.

I just can’t remember the last time I watched something funny. I can’t remember the last time I laughed on YouTube. I’m just miserable by nature and these apps aren’t making it any better.

I can. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/vpX0-sE2yjk I share the animal clips this channel posts here sometimes. I like it.
