YouTube has a coffee autist, apparently the trick is bean freshness, and water temperature.

I found this video very internesting after listening to friday's MATI. It has been 44 years and the black community has hardly changed, In 1980, presidential candidate Ronald Reagan paid a visit to Charlotte Street, declaring that he had not "seen anything that looked like this since London after the Blitz".

Why were people talking about so many autistic ways to make cold brew?
Just buy a Takeya, they work great and they're like 30 bucks. It's really not rocket science.

Maybe I'm biased (because I live in Swedistan), but UK feels so dense and there is no place to "escape", which is why I predict that the rioting that is happening in bong land might not happen in Sweden (we also have a very passive/pussy culture compared to Norwegian and Danish people). Sweden still has the countryside that you can go to escape all the niggers and their mutt equivalent, the Arabs. In Sweden, if you are "rich enough" or lucky with your networking (middle class or farmer), you can go to places that are still nog-free, I doubt that you can do that in the UK as a middle class or lower, only if you are a royalty, celebrity or something. Anyways, I'm writing this as how it's now, I really hope niggers do not get any ideas of going outside the schools, cities, suburban and shopping mall areas.
TL;DR
UK is completely fucked, Sweden still have some cope escape areas left.

For an illiterate grasspeople niggers seem perfect incapable of surviving outside an urban environment. If you encounter a melanated man in a rural setting the chance of niggerhood is pretty damn low.

You're probably doing something wrong. Exercise isn't something that makes you automatically healthier or feel better, you can fuck up your body with bad exercise. Bad exercise will hurt you and your motivation. Were you resting properly? Were you pushing yourself too hard to the point of overexertion? Were you exercising with good posture? Does your weight make it difficult to live?
This is the saddest cope I've read in years, what the fuck.

No, I probably wasn't. I'm not going to powerlevel but I was probably more active than the vast majority of children, teens and young adults. I doubt I was overexerting myself with bad posture and insufficient rest for every single day of those years. I never got anything remotely comparable to a "runner's high", and I don't think I'm some sort of freak outlier either. Some people are different to you.

The detrimental effects of being overweight are very broad and multi-faceted though.
-messed up hormones
-worse sleep
-it literally makes you dumber
-worse immune system, some people speculate that this is the real reason why people prefer partners with lower bf%
-more skin irritation (yes, this already applies when you are only slightly overweight)
-more sweating
-lower sex drive

There is another motivation: mating & evolutionary satiation.
I've been a digital nomad for 15+ years, typically travelling every 3 months, including living a thousand days overseas. I've successfully maintained a 5x workout and 3x run weekly routine since December 2022, because I hated —or rather developed a repulsive loathing for— how weak I looked and was, and recognised that if I wanted a (keep a) high quality mate, that I would need to develop and sustain a fitness practice that would allow me the pretence of being able to protect her physically/socially, not just intellectually; this is one of those social comparisons hardwired into us (like how height also has hardwired responses), and from past experience it is tiring having a partner who gets approached all the time by gymbros (irrespective of them never having a chance because your partner and you have a strong bond). I only do outdoor gyms, as the hookup culture and queer vibe of indoor gyms is not for me. An indoor rower was useful at the start, and it took me 3 months before I could do my first pullup. I only do exercises that I enjoy, no matter what others are doing or recommend. You unlock your goals through sustained practices, and the practices can get more ambitious over time. Set the goal/ideal, then allocate how much time you can spend each day/week for unlocking that goal, and adapt the practice and its content accordingly. I started off with just 10 minutes a day on a rower, then to an outdoor climbing rock for an hour a day, then to an outdoor gym without any rep system just went until failure, then finally to a formal routine of sets and reps which would have been unbelievably boring for me if I started with that - now it works, as I see visibly see the progress on my body, so I am in touch with the delayed motivation of boring activities; whereas at the start, not being able to see such progress, I needed the actual activity to be fun. The big discovery was that people with jacked bodies aren't people born like that, just people whose practice has lasted longer; that with a sustainable practice, which for me is 20 mins 5x a week, I unlock that too.
In 2016, I started running for the first time as an adult, as I had a philosophical shift, that in order to be happy/fulfilled/satiated, one needs to adapt themself to their evolutionary requirements, not be fighting/resisting them as I had done throughout my life prior. Fitness is no longer hunting animals, but we can run around in circles to satiate that evolutionary requirement of physical satiation; it's a compromise, but it works. The goal is runners high, which makes you addicted to running, and is reliably achieved by running for 45 minutes, at an ever increasing pace, it doesn't matter how slow you start or finish, just never go slower nor stop for a break. When I started running again, it was like 10-12 minutes a km and I would have looked like a spaz. Now it's 4m30s per km, and at my peak it was 4m00s a km. You want to develop habits that are addictive, and swap out maladaptive addictive habits for adaptive addictive habits. Parkrun is good if you are competitive.
For weight, at my worst I was 85kg in 2012 (I'm 175cm), and had developed a belly and felt that if I didn't intervene immediately then it would balloon out of control. I did the slow-carb-diet from 4 hour body (without bothering to actually finish the book), and went down to 75kg within a few months and sustained it. A year later, I became vegan, and went down to 65kg within a few months and sustained it. Several years later I bothered to finish the 4 hour body and on the last page or so it has the paraphrased "if you are vegan, disregard this entire book as you don't need it". All this time, I always eat whatever I want, even now. Going vegan was way easier —even back in 2013— than the slow-carb diet of eliminating fast carbs like rice/grains/etc. I've tried fasting, however my life is too random to sustain it.
For the last year and a half, I'm around 70kg and do not look nor feel weak. The consistent workout practice has also eliminated the debilitating RSI pain I would get from information work. Life is good in other ways too.
If you don't have a worthy goal that requires a sustainable practice, then yeah, there is no need to adopt the practice. However, I'd be surprised that not being a fat fuck would not be a goal, as the self loathing from being fat would be a satiating thing to eradicate, and if the self loathing is not there, then there's some potential being left on the table. This video goes into more of my motivations and desire to overcome the self-loathing of the time.
For avoiding temptation, we can't be disciplined all the time, but we can follow governance in a moment of weakness and to reduce frequencies of weakness. Often I would beat myself up for failing on discipline, like eating junk food or masturbating when I was wanting reassurance, or drinking alcohol when feeling defeated. The past few years, I've haven't had any issues with that, as I recognised that self-governance instead of self-discipline works. When I started being vegan, I would remind myself of what happens to the animal when considering buying a non-vegan product, and it allowed me to never stray. Eventually, by happenstance, I applied the same reminder to other crutches like junk food and porn etc, with this note going into various pattern interrupts and these reminders on my phone's home screen:
> No faux social, read a book, or do a smaller project, such as geoguesser, omegle, journal, self analysis
> No faux relationships, do squats or heel kicks or pushups.
> Never let your bank balance dip below $5000 as it makes getting visas very risky
> STOP IT WITH THE NOVEL CHOCOLATE, (BANANA) CHIPS, (INDIAN/NUT) SNACKS, DATE/NUT BALLS/BARS!!!! REWARDS SHOULD MAKE YOU FEEL BETTER NOT WORSE! GET FRUIT AND SIT IN A PARK OR DO A DAY'S WALK WITH FRUIT!!! Chocolate makes your gums sting. Banana chips makes you sniffly. Indian snacks make you fat. Date/nut balls/bars gives you the runs tomorrow.
> Stop it with the alcohol, you feel fine on the day you have it, but the next day you have diminished self-control to impulses
> Every succumbed temptation destabilises your dopamine-serotonin regulation system for days afterwards, making natural rewards less motivating.
I updated my shopping list apps to put products that I regretted into a regret list, as I found I would forget what I regretted, and get sucked into regretful specials again and again. Eventually, I found that everything in the health food isle were regrets —they were just modern junk food— and now I can skip over all what would otherwise be temptations and stick to a shopping list that is easy peasy where all that I eat is great enjoyable meals that I've cooked myself in 2-5 minutes, where eating out is dreadful as I know I could make yummier and far cheaper food at home.
Finally, if you are inclined, modafinil is one hell of an inspirational flow state drug that makes the banal of everyday feel like a victory lap. All above advice works regardless of modafinil though. Personally, used it here and there the past decade, mostly to function with shift work sleep and to achieve boring work, I'm no longer a consumer the past few years, but have no qualms about it.
If people want to call me an idiot or whatever, do it on my profile page, to not derail the thread.

I am not going to commit to any lifestyle changes while living in an AirBNB in a foreign country with 90% of my shit packed up. I have been stuck where I'm at for months. I am not going to start dieting and exercising while I am in limbo. You can stop bothering me. I've said that I will try to get into more outdoorsy activities when I have an outdoors to go to. Until then, I have less than zero interest of doing anything besides unfucking my situation. Thanks!
