LOL 
Political leadership is the LAST thing I want to do
I donāt actually enjoy power over others and certainly want to stay out of the spotlight. In school projects though (especially in MS and HS) I didnāt really have a choice bc I was usually the only one who actually gave a crap and didnāt procrastinate
Thatās just standard government, in fact if itās only questionable not out right illegal or evil then youāre probably living in a decent country!
Thats kinda the whole idea of a club. Find like minded people, geek out on a couple of subjects and have an awkward hook up or two.
Thats why I wonāt join any fly fishing clubs.
Dog sitting for my parents this week, got them to stock the fridge as payment. Let the summer bulk begin
Damn. Great score. You would have got hotdogs and Bologna from me lol
Does a country like this exist?
With power comes great financial gainz.
With financial gainz comes great power AND you can choose not to be in the spotlight- like Buffett
Thatās why investing is so appealing to me. $$ without as much risk as entrepreneurship. Hidden influence
Iām not exactly what most ppl would call a āgood personā but Iāve never had trouble finding ppl more senior than me to āsponsorā me. Harder time with peers though
That fuckerās been dissing bitcoin in the media for years already lol.
But, seriously, yeah if you have a very special set of skills, what I wrote wouldnāt apply.
Thatās his choice. I personally would stay out of the media.
heās not alone on his views of Bitcoin . A couple of my profs who are experts in crypto are more than a little skeptical
Yeah, but they didnāt start whining about it when it was still $200 like Buffet did. Iām pretty sure the fucker just wanted to short it every time he made a public statement. Shit, he shorted the market the day Trump was inaugurated and made a killing IIRC.
They thought it was a joke. One of them gave a fraction of a Bitcoin away as a prize for best final presentation a couple of years ago. The student opened her account for research purposes last year and found that she had nearly 6k
EVERYONE I knew thought it was a joke and called me an idiot for holding it since 2016. The spike when the Shanghai stock exchange crashed and the CCP halted trading for 3 DAYS should have told them something. You could literally smell the impending market manipulation that was eventually going to happen in the region. Then it was reported that even the South Koreans were fucking around with it.
EDIT:
Seriously, I really, really want to know how much bitcoin Xi has stashed away somewhere. Iām 99.9% sure that he has quite a substantial stash somewhere, if only just to move money around overseas. Itās bloody hilarious when I think about it. I joke about this occasionally with my wife just to piss her off.
My favorite thing to do used to be laying on my back and floating in the water and just relax, pool, ocean, lake, didnāt matter. I noticed last summer it was really really hard to float like that but I still could. Today was the first time Iāve been in the water this year and I sink like Iām holding a bag of concrete, straight to the bottom and sit there firmly planted. I was so sad and so excited by this #gainz
My home stay host has gluten free flour and said I could use it. My gut was acting up so I used that as an excuse to have soda bread and chicken broth for dinner instead of egg white omelette.
Extra carbs on non lifting day was probably not the best, but soda bread tasted really good
Even at 5ā10" 268 I could never float on my back. I think I panic or something. My wife and 5 boys will all be kicked back floating in the pool but Iām flailing like crazy trying not to drown.
This is me. I am like a shark if I donāt move I sink like a stone.
Had a double bacon butter burger deluxe from Culverās for Fatherās Day (a day early).
Man do I miss those greasy burgers on a regular basis.

Transplanted from other thread to not derail it:
They wonāt accept it. Theyāre like fat people who ācanātā lose weight. Obviously all of them have thy***d problems,
Seriously, every time a āhardgainerā asks a question pertaining to why heās not gaining weight, why is it always about his TRAINING PROGRAM? Itās like me asking someone what his name is and he tells me his motherās name is āMartha(!!!)ā.
And then you see noobs going along with it by suggesting changing his program to shit like SS or Stronglifts if heās doing some ridiculous some high volume ābro splitā instead of asking for more details about what heās really eating FIRST.
OF COURSE youāre gonna gain some weight if you lower the volume and increase rest days since you burn less calories, but that will still stall if you donāt increase calories. Changing the program doesnāt solve the ROOT of the problem even if it does need some modifications sometimes for different reasons.
Fucking common sense. Come on. USE IT.
And donāt listen to noobs.
EDIT:
Iāve had bloodwork done LOTS of times because Iāve used shit people shouldnāt be using in the past and my thy***d values ALWAYS came back normal even though Iāve always had to consume a ridiculous amount of calories just to gain, and now to MAINTAIN my weight. All my fucking life. Even while on shit that people shouldnāt be using.
Any clown dick who thinks he can ādiagnoseā these issues online just by reading a couple of posts by someone should really get flamed all the way to the fucking 9th Circle of Hell. A Chinese clown dick would really be fucked. We have 18 levels.
And if you REALLY suspect you have any hormonal issues, GO GET TESTED. Donāt fucking speculate online with anonymous people whose backgrounds you donāt even know anything about.
I get what your saying. Hardgainers and the āHealthy at Every Size Peopleā are one and the same.
No one wants to be root cause of their own problems. I started as a teen doing bro splits because thatās what I was taught, but I also consumed about 4-5k calories in a day. And I still lost weight at that time.
If perception is reality, most people are living in a messed up reality.
Also - 18 levels of hell, damn. I thought us Christians had it bad.
