    Adults, too.

    Especially in rec weed states. But with 1/8 of Americans currently taking a GLP-1 receptor agonist (i.e. Wegovy, Ozempic)…I would expect that to take a big toll, too.

    I am one of those 12%…I’ve lost 60lbs the past 3 months. I drink much less and when I do it’s not heavy IPAs and Sours…it’s Happy Dads (iced tea), Seltzers, or a glass of wine. Maybe a cocktail if I’m feeling fancy.

    One, a beer is just so damn filling. And my sense of taste no longer likes hoppy or sour. And it takes much less to get me drunk when I’m barely eating in the first place. And the medication itself can cause a bit of indigestion anyway so you kind of want to moderate more to begin with.


  • Steven Tyler is/was the lead singer for the band Aerosmith, which had its peak in the 90s. He was born as, and identifies as, male.

    Steven is typically a masculine name…thought Stevie may be a feminine variety, i.e. Stevie Nicks, the singer/songwriter of solo and Fleetwood Mac fame. Coincidentally, they were born exactly two months apart…Steven Tyler on March 26, 1948; and then Stevie Nicks on May 26, 1948.

    Also, Stevie Nicks was married to two different members of the band “The Eagles” (at separate times, of course)…Don Henley from 1977-1978, and Joe Walsh from 1983-1986.

    She was also married to two different Fleetwood Mac members…Lindsey Buckingham (1972-1976) and Mick Fleetwood (1977-1979).



  • I had bought these microwavable curry dinner boxes…like an MRE type thing. Mighta been noodles. Idr.

    It came in a plastic bowl with all the ingredients individually wrapped in plastic.

    Remember the episode of Futurama, where Fry had to assemble his own oreos? Like that.

    BUT…in addition to this, they greenwashed the whole thing by including the most worthless bamboo spork I had ever seen. Like it was flat…so not spoony…but also had rounded edges around the tines, so not exactly forky either. It was less comfortable to eat from than a toddler fork. An actual waste of bamboo, if there is such a thing.


  • NGL I like my cola as cold as possible.

    But any iced beverage just feels wrong to rawdog.

    I don’t drink as much soda as I used to…but I do love me some cold brew iced coffee. I wouldn’t want to rawdog that, and I make it at home. I use a reusable straw, tho. I only use disposable straws for boba and smoothies because I can’t find good girthy reusable straws.

    And restaurateurs that aren’t idiots run their soda machines at a ratio that accommodates for the ice.

    I use Ubuntu at work. I don’t even care, it’s legit 500% faster than my work Windows laptop, despite being objectively lower-speccd.

    I use nobara at home. Windows free in my personal life for like a decade at least now. I wanted something solid out of the box, not atomic (I like the idea I just think it’s overkill for a home workstation. The sheepdog is a pet, not part of flock), fedora based with good brtfs support.

    But Ubuntu is good enough. Not as if “better than windows” is a particularly high bar, though.
