Hey, cheer up. We got front row seats to a new political thriller with a power struggle, potential autocoups, suppression of dissent, protests, mass arrests, maybe revolts, maybe a civil war (no spoilers 🤫).

Hey you even get to play a part, its not everyday you get this opportunity. Cheer up, man. 🫠

Just imagine yourself being the protagonist in your little spin off movie. Awesome aint it? If you're lucky, you might get a full tv series. Or, you know, just get a short 10 minute film. (Who needs a series, Quality > Quantity ya know 😉) Who knows what the future holds.

If you get a interesting enough story, you could end up writing the next Anne Frank's Diary. 💀

spoilerSorry for being sarcastic, they say humor is one way to deal with grief. Ye know? The Death of a Republic. 🥲

I've lost 30 pounds since the start of this year. I should recommend stress as the hip new weight-loss diet.

I've lost 5 pounds and substantially reduced my appetite in the last checks notes 12 days?

NGL, I am enjoying being full sooner. First week SUUUUCKED. I struggled to finish a 5 piece tender meal today, and I'm happy about it.

I think I can start ordering smaller meals now (my wallet will thank me) and not be quite the ravenous fat bastard I was for several hours after.

Holy shit i just now realized the only thing I've eaten since the tender meal for lunch (roughly 13 hours ago??) is an apple. And I'm not hungry.

Unfortunately, I'm teetering on the edge of an underweight BMI at this point.

I'm sorry you're having to deal with that; i swung from that end during my childhood into my currently 240ish (233 as of a few minutes ago apparently) pounds.

I was taken off of appetite suppressing ADHD meds juuuust in time for puberty to hit like a brick and it royally fucked me up long term.

Diet is a shitty tightrope to balance across, especially combined with stress 😞

caution. I tried this diet. it works but has....

...ramifications.

[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 5 points 10 hours ago

On the upside, my grocery bill is way down.

Nah, I tend to stress eat.
