Radish seeds make nice sprouts.
Beans.
Beans.
They may be a recurring Lemmy joke but the only reasonable way to get the fiber you need for a day is beans.
Cooked greens, like collards, because they get so small when you cook them, one serving is so full of nutrients and they are one of the best values in terms of nutrition per calorie.
And mostly just eating less junk so more of your calories are nutritious foods.
More water is another way of putting that. I get different results with different hydration levels in my sourdough. Made a whole wheat sandwich bread once with 100% hydration (equal parts flour & water by weight not volume) and it definitely needed to be in a loaf pan but was so good.
So yeah less flour means more hydrated dough, though I do personally hold flour steady at 1 kilo for 2 loaves and adjust everything around that.
I am like you, running is good exercise but too boring and I can't stop thinking. Aerobic dance like Jazzercise is perfectly calibrated so that I can just follow/do and not think but the class near me ended, they are only out in the suburbs now. Yoga is good if it's the challenging vinyasa flow with music, I can sometimes get into that perfect mindset. But fucking Jazzercise was oddly perfect and is gone.
Gardening, dancing, sex, reading, exercise, cooking, riding the electric bike, going to see live music (people are always filming on their phones but I don't, prefer to just experience it).
I do, actually.
Coffee every morning (about 3 hours after waking on weekdays, earlier on weekends) and Nicotinamide Riboside at lunchtime. Creatine some years. For like 15 years now. Ashwagandha (and most vasodilators) are a migraine trigger for me. L-Theanine I didn't notice any effect.
I generally don't expect the other person to stop talking just because I start - that was the way I communicated with my siblings and best friend (talk and listen at the same time) and it was jarring at first to have people interpret that as rude, and/or to stop talking so I could.
I don't have anyone left in my life to talk like that with, and I CAN listen without talking, it's a skill worth developing I think, was always necessary for deeper conversations, but listening carefully is, I don't have the right word but somewhere between polite and caring. Not listening with everything you want to respond top of mind.
Well sure, nobody is perfect! All of mine have ADHD by today's standards but they say I do too. None have what I think of as ADHD, not like the kids I knew with it. One has scoliosis like I did from growing too fast (like I did) .
I mean more like Downs Syndrome - actual genetic disorders not the random misses every person has.
Charlie in there with the cervix stabbing stem and skin tearing texture, what is that, some instrument of torture? Ouch.
I used to dance and one of my teachers, in a situation where we had to improvise a little at an event that had hired us said "you need a very strong beginning and ending, people can forgive a lot in the middle."
So the end season of a show being shit is worse than a bad season in the middle. I didn't watch it through but that makes logical sense to me.
About 30%. And they've had more years to work, that's not a startling percentage.
As someone else said - mostly all rich people are old, but most old people are certainly not rich.
Nah, I'm GenX, my mom had a pension, and was able to retire after raising 4 kids, 3 of them after my dad died (she kicked me out pretty fast).
I also had lots of kids (so better off in that way than the next generation) but because of that, can't really hope to retire.
Most of our kids are doing a lot better than we were at their age, the ones doing worse are more or less in the same economic situation I was, without the added step of having to claw up from homelessness, BUT I agree with whoever said old people were "able to participate" more - I felt more like if I sold out I could be well off, without ripping anyone off. Not as trapped as I think kids can feel now. The obscenely rich flaunting their wealth is so bad for society, they really are the worst people.
