Quintin Tarantino is a hack.

Other than Pulp Fiction, none of his movies any good.

I had terrible insomnia as a late teen/early 20’s guy.

What “fixed” it for me was rock climbing (indoor sports walls). It’s both physically and mentally challenging. When you are climbing you are focused on the climb and noting else. The exercise helps tire you out and gives you a boost in endorphins when you a done.

I’m still a very light sleeper 20 years later; but I rarely get less than 5 hours a night these days.

I still climb once a week.

The root cause of my insomnia was rumination; I literally couldn’t stop thinking about all the stuff happening. Rock climbing forced my mind to focus on something productive the exercise helped tire my body out so that it was ready for sleep. Getting both body and mind ready for sleep helped so much.

This is my experience; I hope it can give you some help.

I’m probably in better shape now, than when I was in my late 20’s and defiantly in my 30’s.

I go rock climbing once a week. And general running around with my 3 boys… For the exercise part.

But about 90% out the improvement is, I have a way better diet. If you can’t identify it by eye, severely limit how much of it you eat.

If you can’t confidently state “hey, that is a bit of broccoli” or “that’s beef mince” etc…don’t eat much of it.

Fruit, vegetables, meat, spices, simple grains, rice… Keep your ingredients simple, it will pay dividends in health long term.

It seems pretty simple to me.

A changeling couple is…a couple. No more labels needed.

Oh hell no.

Coffee is black!!!

I can’t stand oak milk, almond milk is all I drink…I can’t get past the oat taste.

Strangely I eat porridge every morning for breakfast.

This, could work.

But depending on personality issues… It could just escalate the issue.

Thanks for that. I’ll be sure to avoid anything by them.

I don’t want to click the link…what band was he in?

Why does the dude behind Kim look like a kid in an adults hat?

If the “bad guys” are not relatable; then they generally come off as cartoonishly evil, and unrealistic.

Think the bad guys in Avatar, going after the unobtainum or whale brain juice. They are evil for the sake of the suffering, getting the macuffin is seemingly secondary to that; and thus are a joke.

If they are totally two dimensional, they don’t make good villains.

Great villains; have merit to their plans, it is the methods they use and the suffering they cause in pursuit of those goals that marks them as bad.

Look at Killmonger, in Black Panther. He is 100% correct, his view that Wakanda’s isolation has caused great suffering is true, his plan to open it up to the rest of the world is what happens in the end; just not by him…it is his methods that mark him as a bad guy.

Kinda.

Not from USA; but…Terry Crews would be a great leader; he is way to nice to actually run though.

They were both dwarves.

Or $30 product, and “sorry we don’t ship to your location”

Or the fairly regular $30 product with $75 shipping.

The comparison is looking very favorable to Australia currently.

If you use the thousands of kiwis, moving there permanently, every month as a yardstick.

Some of us like it when we are not mentioned…maps without NZ (sorry for the Reddit link)

Market research?

Yep, I enjoy being involved in sports but watching them is a waste of time.

The only exception to this is the team I coach, for kids hockey…great to see the development of the players from know nothing to team play.

It puts the lotion on its skin, or it gets the hose again.
