  • I think generally it has to do with how much water soluble fiber you're consuming vs water insoluble fiber you eat. Iirc it's insoluble fiber that will goop up and slow your digestion down.

    In this case I would buy either some off brand metamucil to see if that directly solves the problem, or try something like eating a large bowl of spiced lentils (cause that always slows me way down, sometimes too much).




  • The Malazan Book of the Fallen series.

    I think book 4 or 5 introduces the capitalist imperialist country and is basically the authors way of critiquing that. It's got a little bit of lib in it but you gotta search hard. Just a really good book series overall, written by an anthropologist and it really shows.



  • I don't have a ton of suggestions in terms of like actually neat things to do, but I will say that if you intend to gamble I would say stick to craps. It's fun and if you stick to the normal bets you actually get good odds (just don't gamble on the main strip).

    You can also score free beer by putting money in the video poker machines at many bars, and sometimes you need to play but turns out video poker also generally has very good odds (when played correctly). I abused the hell out of this on my last trip. I think there's even a optimal play calculator somewhere online where you can input your current hand and it'll tell you exactly what to do.

    Whatever you do make sure you abuse whatever freebies you can get as much as possible. Get your players cards and use your Freeplay, etc. Honestly all that stuff goes a long way.


  • "One day, he’d voice his disdain for Trump voters, neoliberalism or “the capitalist infrastructure.” Another, he’d rail against gun control measures as immoral. When Black Lives Matter protests broke out in 2020, Williams wrote that he was gathering medical supplies for local protestors. He sounded at times like a revolutionary crossed with a left-wing liberal arts student. “The sole job of a cop is to bully citizens on behalf of the state,” he wrote. “Violent overthrow of the state is our only viable option.”"

    Love how the author doesn't know how to pin this guy but as a leftist he makes complete sense.
