Cedar plank grill salmon, don't flip.
Buenas noches, notramigos!
Figuring it out. Later coffee today was okay, but as much later as I wanted to.
Tried to eat less steaks, but ended up eating cream cheese instead.
Just remember all the animals that go homeless and are depopulated (killed) to make room for land to grow crops.
No more humane way to live than to eat ruminant pasture-raised meat.
Worcestershire.
Just use brown sauce instead. Then you can just say brown sauce. Easy, innit?
Got you beat, last load is in the dryer. Home stretch ... until the folding begins...
Good night, Nostr.

Today's adventure took me to Coldwater Lake. Mount St. Helens.
Ride around and find out.
It was the best of times. It was the worst of times...
...
Then bitcoin found me.
Hope you enjoy it. I've now gone into the deep end of Vedic wisdom in an attempt to reframe my own reality.

The present is also problematic, as by the time it can be observed, it is already past, and our tools to observe are woefully imperfect. What we actually exist in is a field of observation and potentiality, continuously making decisions, even when those decisions are to simply observe further.
That's interesting. I wasn't confining this to water, as I see cryo-chambers as the same thing in modern times. Are you sure about that, though? It wouldn't be frostbite, but I would think hypothermia or exhaustion would ultimately claim more lives, if we are including prolonged cold water deaths.
Here's a personal experience. As a boy, maybe 6 yrs old, I was running on the docks, tripped and fell in the water. I was in a life jacket - we always had to wear them outside of the house, for reasons exactly like this. There was some skim ice on the water, so it was plenty cold.
My parents were up at the house, but luckily heard my shouts or something and were able to find me and pull me out. Some hot cocoa and all was well, but I'm sure I gave them a horrible scare. I've actually experienced this in nightmares with my own children drowning and me not able to save them.
I live near rivers that people die in every year, because they think they can swim across them, but the spring snow melt runoff in the rivers is so cold that it exhausts them before they make it across.
As a survival skill, I'm not convinced cold plunging would be high on the list, compared to avoiding situations where an accidental exposure would happen, or being prepared with flotation or other safeguards.
There we go - this is what I am looking for! Is it just done for infants, and to what purpose?
I'm not missing that point at all. I started by stating it, amd referenced Inuit earlier.
Did native americans bathe year round as a form of hygiene? I don't know if this is true or not. I'm not willing to assume it. That is still different from experiencing less than 57 degree water for wellness or mental clarity. Exposure to cold temps for fishing or other food gathering also isn't the same as doing it optionally for wellness.
Exposure to heat through sweat lodges and various ceremonies was done for wellness. That is clear. Not all cultures, perhaps, but enough. Not seeing evidence of cold ceremonies.
Made it through my weekly store run without poisoning myself. Leaving the first store, where I am more likely to buy a sweet treat, I felt my stomach knot up, so clearly the mental withdrawal was initiating a physio reaction. Still, putting a lot of my focus and publicised effort into not poisoning myself definitely feels like it is helping.
This isn't about publicising a goal. This is just flat out accountability and focus.
I also bought 15.5 lbs of meat (all roasts) for an average price of $5.29/lb. It is now all cut into steaks. Those may or may not all get eaten this week. I expect not, as I think I've been eating a little too much lately.
I'm playing around a little bit with the caffeine as well. I waited until a couple hours after I woke up to have my one coffee. I've just been sipping at it occasionally. I drink it room temp anyway, so it not being hot is no issue. 2 hours after making it, I just finished it while making this note.
There's probably something to breaking the habit of having it first thing after waking up. I think that will make it much easier to fully give up. I'll be trying that this week, if I don't just stop it altogether.

Only one pod of coffee this morning. No poison today.
Tomorrow (Sundays) is usually my hard day, because I go to the store. We'll see how it goes, but I'm bringing new levels of awareness and accountability to this struggle, so I have hope.
