This is exactly how I feel about social media and why I don't post on Instagram.

Did I run at least a 10k? Yes.
Was this at least 5k more than I wanted to run? Also probably yes.

So -82,000 followers in a year which is about -225 followers per day. This is a slight improvement from January, 2025 where I calculated this to be approximately -381 followers per day.

Nice job marketing team? Shrug.

Sticker Mule scrubs pro-Trump posts from Instagram Observers on social media noticed a change.

About a year ago, Sticker Mule started emailing their customers with pro-Trump sentiment prior to the election.

I guess I haven't been keeping up on this but in April they scrubbed their Instagram account of pro-Trump posts.

Did it help?

If you drop a solid glass stopper for a decanter, do not try to catch it with your foot like a soccer ball. It will leave a mark.

Last month I decided to change my mindset to someone that works out 4 times a week.

This week, I have hit a big milestone for weight loss and body fat. It is less of a goal and more of a result of my long term fitness goals.

How many times do I have to do this capatcha? 20? Isn't a few times enough to tell you these rocks are too tiny and I'm human?

What not to buy in Japan: SD cards

* 21,010 yen = $144. The same card on Amazon is $44
* 39.380 yen = $270. The same card on Amazon is $120

I was shocked by the prices.
