    🗺️ Embark on an epic journey to Oregon with the official successor to the iconic classic.

    Legit successor? interesting.

    edit: after watching… I’m not sure. The original was lightning in a bottle: right time, right game, right place. This has parts of it, for sure, but I don’t think the original can be made again. There are a buuuunch of new mechanics. Could be good or bad. Need more detail.















  • They need cooking classes, and education around how to properly estimate calories.

    Nope. I count every calorie. I’m shooting for 2300 but struggle to hit that. I usually end up at 2600 or more. I cook 80% of my own food. I bake my own bread. I make my own snacks. I know exactly why I’m fat. I can’t stop being hungry. I feel full around 800-900 calories, no matter what I’m eating. (pizza is an exception, because I feel full around 1200 calories, so I avoid it.)

    Imagine walking, chest deep, against a slow moving river, every second of the day. You can push against it and it works, but it’s hard. One slip up and you’re floating backwards. You know how to make progress, but it’s takes a shit load of effort and one mistake and you just. Fucking. Can’t. Today.

    Add that into everything else wrong with my life. I only have energy for so many things. I have to triage. Kids, wife, bills, personal happiness, other responsibilities. Can’t do them all.

    Trust me, I hate myself with every bite, but it’s the only way to shut up that hungry voice.
