SAN FRANCISCO!!!!!!! 💚 I can't believe my life sometimes.... Sharing the stage with Billie Joe Armstrong and singing When September Ends felt like stepping straight into a dream I never thought would come true. I kept flashing back to little me running around the house with my Walkman tucked into the back of my jeans, the American Idiot Green Day album blasting in my ears, feeling like the world was so much bigger than I could imagine. Still trying to find the words but I loved everything about last night. Beyond surreal. Thank you!!! 2 more shows left of this leg 🥲 Seattle you're NEXT!!!!show more

a lot of visual identities fall apart the moment... you remove the logo. so here’s friendly advice I wish someone drilled into me earlier: run every visual identity through the Three-Post Test. What is it? Design three social media posts in the new visual identity. (btw, you can now easily design and export social media assets directly in Framer) Or, design three posters. (a tip that Jessica Strelioff’s also recently shared!) Then, the important step: remove the logo. Now, look at them like a stranger would. If you’re trying to get out of junior design mode — ask yourself: 1. without the logo, do these three posts still obviously belong together? Follow up with: 2. can I easily point to repeating rules (layout, type behavior, spacing, color logic, ...)? 3. could another designer easily continue this system without me in the room? If you answer 1. no 2. nope 3. uhmmm, not sure then you’re in trouble. If the logo disappears and the connection goes with it, that’s your signal: you don’t have a visual system yet, just three nice visual pieces. maybe a very nice logo, too. So, run this test early, save yourself time later.show more

If the weight, reps, or sets aren't increasing over... time, you're not training. You're exercising. Training has direction. Exercise is just movement. "But I'm working really hard!" Working hard at the same load you used 6 months ago isn't training. It's maintenance. Your body adapts to stimulus. Once adapted, there's no reason to grow further. You must provide novel stimulus: - More weight - More reps at same weight - More sets (carefully) - Better form at same load Something must improve or you're spinning your wheels. "I can't always progress!" Then you're doing too much volume or training too frequently relative to your recovery capacity. You should be able to progress something every 2-3 weeks at minimum. If you're stuck: - Reduce volume to increase recovery - Focus on one lift to prioritise - Check if you're actually eating enough You can't build muscle without building strength over time. The two are correlated at the individual level. If your lifts aren't going up over months, neither is your muscle mass. Track everything. Compare to last month. Progress or adjust. Training without progression is just going to the gym.show more

From near death, she somehow seem to recovered a... lot. She could walk, eat,use toilet and even meow now. Not sure if this is Terminal Lucidity or a Miracle, but at least this gives me more time with her,and even hope. when i have enough money and she still survives, I'll take her to the vet again.show more

5-Month Methylene Blue Update I've been taking Methylene Blue... since October and I wanted to reflect on the first 5 months with it. I’ve been micro-dosing to experience the mental benefits, so usually 3-5 drops. In the first couple months the effects were truly mind-blowing. The cognitive enhancements felt like magic. My focus became laser-sharp, and my memory was spot-on, especially my visual recall. The enhancement of my mental-visual abilities was the most amazing change. I've always been a very visual person. If I had an idea, I could picture it much easier than I could explain it. Methylene Blue increased that ability tenfold. Verbalizing my thoughts became much easier as well. Methylene Blue is certainly a verbal lubricant; my words would flow off the tongue almost effortlessly (in a good way). So, 5 months in, those skills are still heightened, but the dramatics have worn off since I'm now used to these "Super Abilities" It's remarkable that I never felt like my cognitive abilities would decline if I missed a few days of Methylene Blue. The mental benefits were long-lasting. Methylene Blue is great to cycle on and off since the effects last. The thing that still feels like magic to this day is the motivation I get from a dose of Methylene Blue before a workout. The feeling I get from a large glass of water with honey or maple syrup, Himalayan salt, and Methylene Blue is pure drive. Drive, motivation, inspiration, and feeling like I can take on the world are what the above elixir provides. Not to be confused with energy like caffeine would give, it's a much deeper feeling of drive. It instills a mindset shift of "I'm going to do what I came here to do." Truly a life changing substance and I’m so glad I tried it. I’m happy I am learning about it so I can teach my friends and family about MB. I think everyone that can should be experiencing the laundry list of benefits from Methylene Blue. Check the first comment for helpful links. 15% off and a tool to search potential interactions.

This was me on Modern Family 10 years ago,... at a point in my life where I was confident I’d never pursue any career outside of Hollywood. A lot of different things led me to leave and begin pursuing journalism instead. Just maturing as a human being (realizing the world didn’t revolve around me) was a big factor. I definitely witnessed and experienced very inappropriate situations while in Hollywood though, without which I would not have been led to investigate P**nhub. Should I speak on this a bit more sometime?show more

I took this with the intention of sharing it... earlier but wimped out. Changed my mind though because I figured it might help motivate someone. I started running again 4 weeks ago after almost no running in the last 10+ years. In just a month, I knocked out an unofficial half marathon. Not only that, but it felt easy enough to talk 11.5 miles in without being winded. I’m not running fast, in fact I’m really slow at around a 12min/mile pace, but that’s the point I want to make. Running at a low heart rate does amazing things. If you want to try out this style, look up zone 2 training. Or, just go out and do some extended exercise (walk/jog) while keeping your heart rate around 130-145. Walk if you go over that upper end, even I had to when I started. Stay consistent, and you’ll see improvement relatively quickly.show more

hello everyone! 🤍 as you already know, i am... a wheelchair user that has to use a wheelchair most of the time because im a fall risk & in chronic pain unfortunately, the Medline one i was gifted is extremely heavy and since im weak, i cannot push myself around in it. my bf has to do all the heavy lifting and pushing, which takes away from the independence i want as an adult. so, i am officially starting a "fundraiser" towards a custom wheelchair that my insurance refuses to pay for because i am "not disabled enough". achieving this would help me a TON. i want to be able to push myself around freely and be able to get to places on my own without relying on other people. sometimes i cant even use the wheelchair because its too heavy for my mom (caregiver) to get in and out of the car and i risk hurting myself by walking. i have tried three times with my insurance to have them cover it but unfortunately thats how the US rolls and i gotta find other solutions! ANYTHING is greatly appreciated and i really hope i can get a custom wheelchair fitted for my disabilities and be more independent ^w^ i will 🔗 my throne below where i have it set up!show more

Thirteen years ago, I was a brand-new ER nurse... when a family was brought in after a wreck. The parents were gone before we could save them. The only one left was their 3-year-old, Avery, staring at me as if I were the last safe person in the room. She clung to me so hard. So I stayed. I brought apple juice. Found a kids' book. Read it three times because she kept whispering, "Again." At one point she tapped my badge and said, dead serious, "You're the good one." A caseworker pulled me aside: "She's going into temporary placement. No next of kin." I heard myself say, "Can I take her tonight? Just until you figure it out." "You're single. You work shifts. You're young," she warned. "I know, I said. "But I can't let her be carried off by strangers." One night became a week. A week became months of home visits, parenting classes between shifts, and learning how to pack lunches. The first time she called me "Dad," it slipped out in the freezer aisle. So yeah. I adopted her. I switched to a steadier schedule, started a college fund the minute I could, and made sure she never had to wonder if she was wanted.show more

"My wife passed eight months ago. She left me... a handwritten list of things she needed me to do after she was gone. Pay the insurance by the 15th. Call her sister on her birthday. Don't skip the doctor. And number 7 — 'Make sure Bruno gets a walk every single morning without exception. He will be the reason you get out of bed. I planned it that way. I love you. Don't argue with the list.'" I argued with the list for about three days. Then I stopped arguing. I have not missed a single morning since. Six months of mornings. Six months of 6:30am. Six months of Bruno waiting at the door with the specific patience of a dog who knows the list says morning and trusts that morning will happen because she said it would. Some mornings I get dressed on autopilot. Some mornings I don't remember deciding to get up. I just find myself at the door with my coat on and Bruno's leash in my hand. She knew. She knew me better than I knew myself and she wrote it down and she signed it don't argue with the list and she was right she was always right she was right about this the way she was right about everything. My son saw us this morning on his run. He called me after. He couldn't finish a sentence. Neither could I. So we just stayed on the phone for a while breathing in each other's ears the way you do when words are not the right size for what you are feeling. She put me on a leash, honestly. Bruno's leash. And I have never been more grateful to be exactly where I am supposed to be at exactly 6:30am on a February morning that I would not have gotten up for on my own. Number 7. She saved me with number 7. Drop a ❤️ for her. She planned everything. Right down to the morning walks. Right down to us.show more

I used to think sending my resume to 50+... jobs would eventually work. If you're applying to dozens of jobs with the same resume... That could be the reason you're getting ignored. Here's what I learned. The biggest mistake wasn't my experience—it was using the same resume for every application. Most companies screen resumes against the job description first. If your resume isn't tailored, you're often filtered out before a recruiter even sees it. I've been testing NextRaiseAI and it makes the process much easier. → Paste a job description (or use the Chrome extension directly on LinkedIn job pages) → Get a resume match score → See exactly which skills and keywords are missing → Tailor your resume before applying You're not getting rejected for a bad profile—you're getting rejected for not tailoring your resume at scale. 🎁 Get 20% off using this code "YU4KHZ" Try it here: #ad #sponsoredshow more

🚨VAIBHAV SOORYAVANSHI DEBUT IS RUSHED WHILE SANJU SAMSON WILL... FEEL ROBBED - DINESH KARTIK IN THE COMM BOX🤯 Dinesh Karthik said :🗣️ "Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's debut was making all the noises for some time. But you have to shut those outside noises & stick to your plans & always back your match winners. That's why i felt Vaibhav's debut was rushed a bit. He could have waited a bit longer. I am feeling bad for Sanju Samson, he was your MVP just a few months ago with those breathtaking three innings in the World cup & here you are dropping him to somehow include Vaibhav Sooryavanshi. This selection was something that was unexpected".show more
