So, the original point. Stop using GLP-1s as the punch lines to jokes about people you already don’t like.

Also I’ve lost 70 pounds since starting the drug. Yay!

I don’t think I ever realized my brain was almost always talking to me about food and wanting to eat until it stopped. And it stopped when I started taking Wegovy. There’re probably lots of emotional and psychological reasons behind it that I could dig into with therapy, but there is also some

There is still a lot of research around why and how our bodies and brains function how they do especially in the areas of weight gain/loss. Yes, calories in < calories out = good but simplification is rarely the end all be all. And it definitely isn’t here. Now, about that food brain…

I AM ON A GLP-1 EXPLICITLY FOR WEIGHT LOSS!

There, now that I’ve exclaimed that…can we PLEASE stop using those class of drugs in pejoratives? I’ve struggled with my weight for pretty much my entire life, even in the Marines, and this is the first thing that has helped tone down my β€œfood brain.”

Another thought. After all the lawlessness by Trump and the GOP, it’s impossible to take their law & order shtick seriously. I love how the TX Dems are all, β€œMiss me with that shit.”

What Abbott failed to mention was his and the GOP’s craven attempt at politicians selecting their electorate. You know, the exact opposite of democracy.

So what you’re saying is you’re going to write a sequel to help hype the film? πŸ˜‚

My brain makes up the wildest things when it gets scared so here’s the latest. Trump is going to federalize the National Guard of every Republican state to ensure electoral maps are redrawn. They’ll be sent to IL to drag TX Dems back to TX if Abbott can’t vacate their seats. Civil War II starts.

Drive on 50W: This evening I came home from two days in the field. Missouri has some pretty sunsets and scenery. I hope you enjoy joining me on this drive from Linn to Jefferson City, MO. It was the tail end of the 2.5 hour journey home.

I had to wear a fade haircut for quite a few years (military) and nothing was better than when the barber got out the warm shaving cream and straight razor for my neck. It felt nice, and apparently looked nice (according to my wife). I, too, never really saw it myself.

I got that Wegovy. Lost 70 lbs in about seven months but fell off pretty hard the later part of winter and all spring. Back on my game now, though! 68 lbs until I’m back at my military weight.

You’re not asked questions so we can learn about all your criminal tendencies. You’re asked questions to verify what we already know and to catch you telling lies. The number of times I’ve watched skilled interviewers do this with suspects is…very many.

Meanwhile state government directors are starting to tell their people to find budget areas to cut for upcoming budget requests.

AltGov accounts, even the non-verified, should be better than posting misinformation and refusing to take it down when called out. I no longer follow @altyellonatpark.org and I don’t think anyone else should follow them, either.

Posting misinformation makes y no better than Trump and the Alt-Right. Go delete the post claiming there were 4,000 payments from Trump to Epstein. There is no evidence of that and you have deliberately taken information out of context.

Nearly three hours have passed and you haven’t taken down this misinformation. You’re supposed to be better than this.

Pretty sure this is how the Sanctuary Districts started leading to the Bell Riots. I don’t think there’s a Captain Sisko to save us this time.

Hulk Hogan was a Real American Hero. Terry Gene Bollea was, always, a giant pile of human excrement. RIP Hulk. Fuck off, Terry.
