      I don’t want to sound like one of those gym bros obsessed with living healthy, but I think soon we’ll see junk food like cheeseburgers the same way we see cocaine or heroine now. Something that’s fine once or twice per week while in your 20s, but bad after that.

      Done with interview prep for tonight. Read 4 journal articles and took notes and reread a bunch of stuff about the program. I have 3 more journal articles to get through tomorrow.

      >But Clavicular’s Fashion Week stream also led to a hilarious culture clash between the esoteric fascists of Dimes Square who are all mostly really weird and ugly looking – and the younger porn-brained image-obsessed looksmaxxers that watch Clavicular’s videos. A culture clash that Groyper leader Nick Fuentes was very excited to exploit, calling Dimes Square, “rizzless freaks,” and declaring the afterparty, “fake, Jewish, and propped up by weird defense tech money.” Which beyond Fuentes’ typically racist rhetoric, is actually a useful breakdown of the two sides vying for the future of a post- Trump American far right. On one side is Thiel’s incendiary hipsters and Vice President JD Vance-aligned edgelords and on the other is Fuentes’ blackpilled NEETs. And what’s most interesting here is that both sides know that, because of the online attention economy, they need Clavicular. He does not appear to understand any of this, though. Because he is 20 years old and extremely stupid.

      Absolute cinema seeing Clavicular igniting a civil war between different factions of the Republican party.

      **POINT: You Should Go Back Into Your Bedroom and Try to Fall Asleep**
      By old_gold_mountain

      I know it’s hard to fight the urge to leave your bedroom at 11pm when you’ve had a lot of valentine’s day sweets throughout the day and got stimulation from attending a birthday party. I promise you, sweetie, tomorrow morning when you wake up we will play even more. It’s still the weekend! We can go to the bakery in the morning and get a pastry for you, and then visit your favorite playground. We can do the swings, we can do the carousel, whatever you like!

      At the heart of this issue, though, honey bun, is the fact that the medical community is nearly unanimous in its agreement that a long night’s uninterrupted sleep is extremely important to the juvenile brain. Sleep isn’t just good for you, it’s necessary! You’re almost three years old, and these years are the years you’re preparing your mind and body to live a long, healthy, successful life.

      So go back to bed darling. I love you, but it’s time to sleep! I will see you in the morning, and here – I’ll even send you off with a hug and a kiss, grab your stuffed cat, and tuck you both back into bed. Good night, my darling!

      DTers who have parents that are devout Christians/Muslims but aren’t really religious themselves, do your parents know? How is your relationship with them?
