Do you mean like…those gyroscopes you’d spin up using twine?

Kuhn Rikon Swiss Peelers. They come in 3-packs for like $15. They’re sharp AF, lightweight and easy to use.

Travel a little, volunteer in the community, use any (if any) excess funds to try and better the things around me, cook more, adopt pets.

Waiting for the day we finally and collectively eat the rich.

I think I read somewhere that the average adult has less than 5 good friends. Beyond that is rare to non-existent in terms of actual an “friend”.

That you had 5 show up is pretty good in one regard. I understand the disappointment though, wife and I planned a big 40th bday bash, invited anyone and everyone we knew, well north of 50 friends and acquaintances. End of day we assumed we’d get to 20.

We barely scratched 10, ended up canceling everything just due to effort and cost.

Anyway, if you’re in the Oregon area and do something like this again, I know I’m not a friend, but I’ll show up.

Serious question, if I live off just that, I end up feeling like absolute garbage. That’s even with supplementing it with greens like spinach and some other veggies and vitamin supplements. What am I missing?

Like, macro-wise, I can replace meat and other things, but it doesn’t seem to hit the same?

I have a couple of good Indian friends and the stories they tell me about corruption are… absolutely wild. I mean, jaw dropping.

But, curious, what do you mean “not self critical”?
