There is a girl I know who is super cute, and she has resting smiley face. Her demeanor always struck me as odd, until I learned she’s a kindergarten teacher, and then it made sense. She talks to people in the same way she talks to kindergartners.

I think it’s more accurate to describe rapamycin as an an immunomodulator, and if you look at the data it paints a pretty compelling picture.

I will say that you don’t have to lie down and take it. Over the past few years I’ve been on a journey to restore and rejuvenate my body, and the results have been miraculous. I went from morbidly obese with metabolic syndrome, including uncontrolled high blood pressure, to literally the best physical condition of my life. 60 year old me could kick 30 year old me’s ass any day of the week. All of my health issues have been resolved, and all of my old man aches and pains have gone away. I did a deep dive on the state of the art of longevity science, which is reasonably summarized in Peter Attia’s book Outlive. (It’s a free audiobook on spotify premium.) I’ve basically optimized sleep, exercise, nutrition, supplements, and the use of prescription drugs, including the drug rapamycin. Rapamycin has extended lifespan of every organism it’s been tested in, including budding yeast, fruit flies, mice, rats, and non-human primates. While there are ethical and time considerations that make such placebo controlled lifespan studies in humans difficult, there is data to suggest that rapamycin has a similar therapeutic effect in humans. Joan Mannick’s 2014 study using Everolimus, a slightly tweaked analog of rapamycin, demonstrated that pulsed mTOR suppression in elderly humans greatly ameliorated immunosenescence, the decline in immune function during aging, and the ongoing trials of rapamycin with respect to ovarian aging have shown impressive effects. I’ve been on rapamycin for almost 3 years now, and while I can’t isolate its effects from my other interventions, I’m pretty much never sick and I’ve had significant grey hair reversal, which was unexpected. TLDR: there is a lot you can to mitigate the effects of aging and implement “graceful degradation” in your life.

They do. However, the drugs your pet needs may not be off patent, and thus you have to buy branded.

Children’s television programming geared towards young children (e.g., Bluey, Peppa Pig, etc.) can fill this gap, and are widely used as comprehensible input content by adult language learners.

Picking up a new language is much easier if you use the Comprehensible Input method, which is fun and easy. It’s essentially learning language like a child learns. You watch videos that are 100% in the target language. In the beginning, they are super easy, with lots of props, gestures, and other context that helps convey the meaning of the words. As you pick up more and more, you watch more difficult videos. It’s amazing how fast you pick up the new language. In about 3 months I learned enough Spanish to give me around 80%+ comprehension of normal conversation, and better comprehension if the person spoke slowly and clearly. Don’t count out learning a new language, as it is a lot easier than you might think if your only experience is with traditional methods.

The DSM-5 has 9 criteria, and if you meet any 5 of the 9, you have NPD. npdtest.org/…/what-are-the-9-official-dsm-5-crite… The fact that you’re questioning whether you are a narcissist tends to point to you not being one. If the people around you are telling you that you crave attention on a pathological level, it may well be gaslighting or projection from the people around you, as narcissists love to deflect and find fault with others.

To paraphrase George Bernard Shaw, the fact that a MAGA racist is happier than a woke person is no more to the point than the fact that a drunken man is happier than a sober one. The happiness of credulity is a cheap and dangerous quality of happiness, and by no means a necessity of life.

THC has very low toxicity, so the lethal dose is ridiculously high, on the order of 1000mg/kg of body weight, so Spongebob should survive his ordeal, but it isn’t going to be fun. I had a “friend” drug me with an edible he made with a ridiculous amount of THC, and when it kicked in I slipped in and out consciousness, and came to vomiting. The room was spinning so hard I could barely walk and needed assistance. It was a bad day.

Context is everything. Sure, men are more aggressive and women will definitely get some unwanted attention. People often think that as a consequence, women don’t want to be approached by men in public. However, if you dig deeper, women don’t mind being approached, so long it is done by someone they want to be approached by. It is the reality captured by the “Hello, Human Resources” meme.

I think it may be a little more complex than this. I’m a man that was quite good looking in my youth. I got fat and ugly in middle age, and became invisible to women. Now, at 60, I’m in the best physical shape of my life, have largely recovered my looks, I dress nicely, and am blown away about how differently I am treated by women now, especially women over 40. I regularly get compliments about my appearance, and due to the halo effect I seem to collect compliments on nearly everything I do. Having been invisible to women for more than a decade, it feels a little strange to be showered with attention.
That said, not every woman wants the same thing from me, but they do all seem to want my attention, including married women, oddly enough. They want to feel pretty, feel desired, even if they aren’t going to act on those feelings. I frequently get women showing clear signs of interest (intentionally putting themselves in my orbit, mirroring my behavior, initiating physical touch, etc., etc.) in an effort to draw a response from me, even women who are not in a position to follow through on their actions. These are not women just being kind or benignly friendly. Here is one recent example. I was at a friend’s birthday party, and was approached by a woman I had met in dance class. She was moderately flirty during the the course of our conversation, and asked if I were seeing anyone, as she had noted seeing me regularly with one of my female friends. Our conversation ended with her stating that she was looking forward to seeing me in class. At the next class, she wore a sexy black cocktail dress, which was a bit out of character for her. For me, she was showing clear and unmistakable signs of interest. However, when talking, she mentions her husband in passing, which made me wonder what the hell was going on. I later learned that her husband is in the late stages of pancreatic cancer. My takeaway from this experience is that she was trying to elicit my interest to bask in the glow of my male attention, and that she probably isn’t looking to step out on him (which is something that I wouldn’t engage with).
In the last 6 months, I’ve had many other similar experiences, where women are definitely seeking my attention in circumstances where they have no intention of following through. It feels good to be desired, whether you are a man or a woman, and if a woman is constantly drawing romantic interest “accidentally”, it’s worth it for her to consider what energy she is putting out.
