  • Love a series that doesn’t shy on irritating the viewer: Carol was bored and they carried the feeling by using a sloth pace, speedrunning it wouldn’t have conveyed the proper character development that they are masterfully doing in this show.

    Manusos storyline is great and every shot during his trip is wonderful and sad at the same time. They show his determination even though he almost never speaks a word, but when he does, he kicks!










  • I find your very measurement- and data-based approach interesting, but as you mention in the end, the factors impacting mental status and sleep quality are really too many to condense in measurable cause-effect schemes.

    From what I read/heard and my experience, the most important thing is to get the core points somewhat right: having a routine (=regular time of day) for eating and sleeping is the cornerstone. I’m the idea that what we eat is extremely important, but not in the sense of macro and micro nutrients but in a more instinctive approach: eating colors, vary day by day and listen to your body and avoid sugar and processed foods as much as possible is a practicable way of staying healthy. I would count macros only in training, competing or high load of exercise, where you have to plan energy reserves for a future effort.

    Mental state/health is then such a big part of how we feel: sunlight is extremely important and modern society generates so much stress that has deep and longstanding impact on our minds and bodies. Look at your post: a nice family get together has a falloff that makes you feel bad :) maybe you can just relish this “cheat week” (I hate the term “cheat” but it gets the idea maybe) and build back to your well balanced routine gradually. A lifespan is built by consistency during the years, not by avoiding slips at all costs.

    One thing that’s really clunky is checking the list of followers and followed accounts: depending on which instance is each account, these lists are either incomplete or empty. I don’t know if I do something wrong, but I was trying to get up to speed with Mastodon by discovering interesting accounts to follow- which is not trivial - and found the aforementioned problem. I use a third party app and various web front ends, including the “official” ones (you are forced to when you look for the list of followed/followers)
