image 7pm 🍽️ boiled potatoes, boiled egg, can of tuna in tomato & herb sauce and sourdough toast, tea milk no sugar. 9am β˜• coffee no sugar, drink of water 9:30 -12:30 (no sports watch but under 3hr)17.5 mile jog, don't take anything with me as it's winter, no warm ups or stretching just start off steady. Let' call it 10:10–10:17 mins per mile, checked the average for NY marathon and it's 10:21/mile, Overall (4:31:31), 26 miles. Pleased that I managed to keep moving for 17.5 miles but thought the pace was a bit crap when people can average 10:21/mile for 26 miles - a distance I've never jogged before, Mo Farah is running 4:46 minutes a mile πŸ˜‚ Just been doing 2 runs a week for about a few months, never really ran before, tried it once in the past and hurt my knees due to poor/no technique - head down, leaning forward from the waist, feet dragging, no butt kick ❌🫣 #runstr πŸƒ

Free if you don't mind the odd nettle sting and bramble scratch, and they haven't been sprayed with anything unless it's geoengineering related and fallen from the sky.

image People on the Internet will be adamant that weed is totally harmless and stoner culture is cool, maybe it is harmless to people with no history of mental health issues in their family genes? Everyone probably thought this "Pretty Glonky" guy was the most chilled out harmless stoner you could ever meet, I thought the video was funny as well. Turns out his real name is Kyle Andrew Braun and he's currently in prison awaiting a attempted murder trial - the victim his own mother!!! The Police found her with a kitchen knife stuck in her head and Pretty Glonky was the guy who plunged it into her. Was the weed or whatever other drugs he took to blame for his mental health issues or did they just exacerbate them? Who knows? Watched a video clip of Bob Marley the other day talking about "herb" and how it gives you time to think, I was kind of sold tbh at the thought of loafing around in the hills of Jamaica away from all the hustle & bustle surrounded by greenery. IRIE MAN. All i'll say is if someone want to smoke weed they should wait until they're an adult, taking drugs as a kid/teen is bad news while the brain/mind is developing imho.

Anyone else got to the stage where they don't know what to eat anymore and it feels like our digestive systems are under attack from chemical preservatives, additives, modern farming and food production procedures or has my body just got to the stage where it says "nope" I was reading up about bread the other day and how ancient wheat varieties like Einkorn, Emmer, Spelt were more nutrient dense and "had different gluten composition, often considered to be more digestible and less likely to cause gut issues or sensitivities compared to modern wheat" Starting to think my body isn't feeling gluten, usually wake up feeling like crap often with a headache which sometimes clears but other times is full blown and worsens in my forehead and in the back of my neck, started to wonder if it's gluten related and always suspected there was a connection to the gut. Just scrolling through social media and seeing everyone posting food pictures I'm like "nope!" Yeah, could eat it but what would it do when passing through my system, broccoli & tough leafy greens etc high in insoluble fibre yet everyone opines "eat your greens" Kinda drives you mad though when it all seems hit & miss and often without rhyme nor reason, if only it was a simple as avoid XY & Z foods The state of my lower back and what possible effects that's having on my nervous and digestive system is a whole other can of worms.

OK I've got no problem admitting I was wrong & was a fool for calling Max Blumenthal a prick, I was a sucker for believing all the drain the swamp bullshit - turns out Trump was the swamp! But I'm sensing Bongino can't handle selling his soul!!! 🎷

Not a lot to see but this is what's left of Codnor Castle in Derbyshire, said to be built in the late 12th century (1170 - 1190). In the UK there's a archaeology TV show and they filmed an episode here back in 2007, a Henry V gold noble coin was discovered when they excavated the moat area. You can see why they chose this location to build it.

Pretty sure my cousin still has all his Mean Machines magazines that my auntie used to buy him from a newsagents called Lewis Meesons (since long shutdown) probably all in near mint condition along with his Sega Mega-cd and all its original packaging, full autism πŸ˜‚ Can't recall that many games from that machine but remember a Tetris blocks type game called Columns but most memorable was Night Trap as I think it may have been one of the first video games to play like an interactive movie with cut scenes, probably wasn't even that fun to play but novel for the times. Looking on Wikipedia, Night Trap along with Mortal Kombat were the focus of the 1993–94 United States Senate hearings on video games πŸ˜‚ πŸ¦‚πŸ˜· "Get-over-here" 🩸 #retro #gaming

Remember watching Crusty Demons of Dirt when I was a kid, loved it! Everything about 90s CaliforniaπŸŒ… seemed cool when it came to skateboarding, bmx & freestyle dirtbike riding. The soundtrack was kind of memorable as well. Anyone who watched it will remember Seth Enslow. Mind Funk - Blood Runs Red 🎸🎢 #bikestr #tunestr #90s

image If you're into 3d printing, prototyping, precision, high accuracy, machining, engineering or even basic shop skills you should watch Dan Gelbart's videos on YouTube, they guy is some kind of genius tbh. Watched his workshop tour and some of his other videos a few years ago and loads of the stuff he covered has stuck with me. One notable mention was his Moore No3 Jig Borer, accurate to 1 micron / 40 millionth of an inch, leadscrews that are half a micron out to allow for slight temperature changes in an oil bath, invar headstock, the guys in the factory that did the final scraping in wore aluminised suits so their body temperature didn't distort the tolerances 🀯 Hold my beer while I drill a hole in this speck of dust. When the guy started out with not much he used to build his own machines and equipment, some of which he still uses.

image The metal rod was from the mechanism of an up & over garage door and the other pieces were scraps so I guess you could consider this junksculpting, the wheelbarrow was given a coat of Hammerite and concreted in the ground just as an ode to a deceased relative who was a builder. πŸ§±βš’οΈπŸͺπŸͺ¦

Fruit update 🍍😁 A quick Internet search informed me that the reason pineapples sold in UK supermarkets are so rubbish is due to the pineapples being picked too early/unripe so they'll survive the journey from the country they are grown. Once a pineapple has been picked it may soften or change colour but it doesn't ripen or become sweeter. In an ideal world, you wouldn't be buying or consuming tinned fruit but the pineapple found in tins has been left to ripen before being picked, the packaging states no added sugars and 100% pineapple juice. Just not worth buying pineapples in the UK, not from supermarkets anyway, might as well buy the tinned stuff. #fruitstr 🍍😁

Let's hope there's no errors or bugs in Palantir's "Master Database" which cause people to have their lives ruined because you know....the system is never wrong! Tell that to the 900 sub-postmasters who were convicted of crimes they didn't commit, faced financial ruin and had their lives destroyed with some even committing suicide thanks to Fujitsu's Horizon accounting software.

My Hydrangea isn't looking like one of the The Eight Immortals Flowers 😏 πŸ‡¨πŸ‡³πŸŒΊ ε…«δ»™θŠ± It keeps coming back but has never really got going or turned into the big blooming shrub a cutting was taken from - the old hydrangea that was outside my Grandma's house all my life. Maybe it's down to the pH of the soil but I always remember her's flowering white/pale pink. The last couple of years it seems as though frost has killed a lot of the new growth/shoots and they turn black and fail. #plantstr #garden image
