Yeah, we have saunas at work and I started using them before bed, like you say really helps me sleep.
Then I got one for my home with a whiskey barrel plunge pool. Took a while for the smell of whiskey to disappear though, every time I’d dip into it I’d stick of whiskey.
I’ve made a little shelf on the window to sit my phone and have a Bluetooth speaker on the floor so I can watch episodes of taskmaster while in there.
Usually have 3 sessions with a cold plunge in between.
It hurts so much. I hope the people who voted no are looking at what’s happening and thinking “oops” I was wrong. But that’s not likely.
That would make sense, yes, let’s go with that.
The one on the right are for users of these 
Yes slice and dice! I would hate to know how many hours I’ve played on that game over three different phones.
If you haven’t tried them yet, slay the spire and balatro are also brilliant.
I’ve just taught myself to knit. I made a simple ribbed hat and now I’m halfway through a cabled headband. There are loads of mistakes and it’s not as relaxing as I would have hoped but I’m proud of it all none the less.
Try taking a dmt trip. That often is described as feeling like dying, it’s a strange other dimension but somehow feels familiar. Also the brain dumps a load of dmt at the moment of death. But that’s just the dying stage, the actual dead stage, nothing because the brain has stopped working.
I’ve always been a night person. Absolutly useless first thing in the morning. Then I got a job working nights and it just seemed so natural.
Then as I got older I got a job working offshore, working nights. So I get to wake up at 1400, have a cup of tea, go to the gym, do some other stuff before starting shift at 1830 - 0630. Then go straight to bed, and not have any disturbances until I wake up.
Yeah, the first night it a bit tough having traveled to work through the day then staying up all night and when I get home turning around to regular life can take a couple days but melatonin helps a lot with that.
I have a friend who works as a night porter in a hotel and has to sleep at home with his family doing stuff during the day, he always looks tired and I don’t think it’s healthy for him to continue that long term.
I think some people are wired for days and some for nights but they still need to get proper rest whenever it is that suits them.
I read a book by the author of fight club called “Rant” where society was split into dayshift and nightshift due to overpopulation, doesn’t seem like such a bad idea to me.
Also, if you work nights make sure to take vitamin d supplements.
I have an 8 year old who is very excited and a 10 year old who is also very excited but I’m pretty sure she knows what’s going on but is playing along for her sister.
They only get one present from Santa and the rest are from us so the Santa present is the big one they asked him for.
I now have a two year old nephew who is so excited you could use him to power a reactor.
I guess there will be a small gap where no one belives in santa, then it will be a good time to go on holiday for Xmas, and everyone will still be excited for Xmas.
Ha I thought for a second your age was in the 90’s, but then I considered it more likely that you were born in the 1990’s, right?
I gave my wife a ring made out of coconut. Cost me $2 and she instantly dropped it off the balcony if the resturaunt we were at.
The Thai owner of the place climbed off the balcony into the boulder field underneath and spent 20 minutes looking for it. Even after I explained that it was only a cheap coconut ring.
He said the price isn’t the point, it’s the memories!
He found it, what a legend.
Stalker was good for this, realistic weight allowances, the more you carried the quicker your stamina went dien until you couldn’t jump and then couldn’t walk.
I have had life changing injuries. I broke my shoulder in 6 places and needed surgery to put it back together. This meant I lost my job as a carer at a nursing home because I could no longer move patients (out of bed, picking them off the floor, washing them etc) and it took almost three years for me to get full use of my arm again.
I have all the strength back now after all the physio but will never have the full range of movement because they had to shave the socket deeper when rebuilding it, this means that when climbing overhangs that traverse to the right I struggle a bit, but it’s a challenge to overcome not a reason to give up.
I don’t look forward to how much all these injuries might hurt when I’m older but in my opinion it is all the more reason to enjoy life while I can, being old and sore is going to happen whether I like it or not, might as well have some good memories.
Probably not what you were thinking but there’s plenty of stories of dogs not leaving their owners after death like Greyfriars bobby.
Also elephants are known for mourning their dead.
I think if I donated my body to science and they were all done with it, and they could make more money for research by selling bits off to weirdos that would be fine by me. Maybe put a little QR code on it that people could scan and get a little biography of me. That would probably make archeology a lot easier.
I don’t see the problem. Loads of people have skulls of other animals on display. Why should a human be treated any different.
A lot of people have said that I’m really unlucky, but I’m still skiing, climbing and biking. A disturbing number of my friends have broken their spines at one point or another or have a ridiculous amount of metal holding them up, so I consider myself very lucky indeed.
Also very grateful for the NHS.
It’s a throw up between dislocating my arm while kiting and wearing both wrist straps for the brake lines. So my arm dislocated in mid air, fell to the ground, kite inflates but doesn’t take off and dragged me along the ground by my dislocated shoulder until I hit a rock.
Falling while climbing solo breaking my ankle and having to crawl out to find help.
And finally crashing while skiing and landing my hip on a rock, the ski patrol didn’t know if I had a spinal injury and couldn’t give me painkillers to get me off the hill, so they took me down a slushy bumpy spring slope on a sledge. Turns out I’d just fractured my hip so after the xray my friends dad the doctor got me loaded up with painkillers to make up for it.
Edit: that’s just some of the worst I can think of, I am very grateful that the human mind cannot remember pain.
Hey, thanks for the game, got accepted recently and have been really enjoying it.
Sadly I’ve just come 3rd in the parents race at my kids sports day at the cost of pulling my calf muscle so it look like I’ll not be getting many steps in over the next few days.
Keep up the great work, I’m looking forward to see how it progresses.
