Whenever I tell people I lost a lot of weight they always make the same joke, “Oh, looking at you I can see you’ve gained it all back.” Then comes the argument about how I must have due to me denying it. Eventually I dig up old pictures of me and people are surprised I kept the weight off. I am still fat, but I am now losing weight again. People are always impressed with my weight loss journey and will ask me what did I do. Every time I tell someone what I did to lose weight and keep it off no one thinks it works. They either ask how I really did it, or they think I am making a joke. However, I am always telling them the truth. I think I’ve written a little bit about this before on here, but I don’t think I’ve ever told the full story.

It took some time but I finally fixed images, at least I hope so. Let me know if you can see the image or not. It is below the “read more” to prevent the front page from running on forever. I should’ve actually worked on this seriously a while ago but just kept delaying it. It took an hour and a half of work to finally get it to work. Now to fix those pesky comment buttons…

For a while I have been wanting to talk about the Amico again. However, everything about the Amico has been a bunch of small things that keep piling up. Things that seem weird but aren’t in the way people think they are. Like everyone thinks the NFTs make no sense, when they do. I was wanting to write something about the Amico using NFTs, and other companies, but there wasn’t a lot to write once I found the answer. Same thing with the CEO switch. I could write maybe 2 paragraphs on it, but not much else. The different offices? That one has the most the write about, as you will see, and could potentially be it’s own blog post. However, I don’t want to have too many things about the Amico on here and it sparked the research into the NFT stuff and more. So, here is a nice big Amico stew of things I wanted to talk about, but there just wasn’t enough meat. As a heads up to my international readers this post will be very technical. Sorry.

No shit it is fake. Everyone knows it is fake. However, this insulting question has always pissed me off. People say it in a way that tries to dismiss all of wrestling as fake. They also use the same logic towards magic. People use it like a badge to show how smart they are and yet every time I hear it I can’t help but thing, “How fucking stupid are you?” I say this as someone who doesn’t even like wrestling.

One of the weirdest things to me is how people will say they’re friends with someone but not even peep their shit. You can forget about sharing it too. I’ve never understood this. Even online friends I meet I will try to view their stuff and share it if I can. You see on the side bar of my website are a few people’s stuff. Even if they are people I don’t agree with often; I still try to share their stuff. I’d actually like to go more in depth about how sharing, and viewing, your friends content can help dramatically.

I don’t want to have two algorithm based posts back to back but Twitter has been really pissing me the fuck off lately. However, through Twitter’s bad algorithm of showing “posts you’re interested in” I’ve noticed a giant trend that I think is doing a lot of harm to people. I believe the damage it is doing is way bigger than what people think. What’s interesting is the first time I noticed this was from STEM people I followed, but with Twitter’s busted algorithm I’ve noticed it’s much wider spread than I thought. What is it? Encouragement inequality.

A lot of people don’t know this but a hobby of mine is exploiting algorithms. I used to love to do SEO stuff on numerous websites. In fact, in the previous article about Jack Murphy I mentioned that. Right after posting it, I do mean the second I posted it, I had a few bots hit the article. Originally I intended to link to random stuff about Mr. Murphy. However, with him flagging down content constantly that makes it impossible. Why does that matter? Well, to optimize your SEO you need to link to external sites. It also ups it if you have external sites linking to you. Essentially Google, Bing, Yahoo, and all other search engines favor sites that give out a lot of external links and have external links to them. Once you understand this you learn a lot about how the internet works.
Sites like YouTube modify this with hidden algorithms. Which is why people like me used to spend hours testing it and seeing how we could optimize it. This is also why YouTube removed stuff like the P-Score being public, and dislikes. Every bit of data they can hide from people prevents us from learning how it works. Speaking of YouTube. I want to talk about a different algorithm on YouTube that no one mentions outside of comments on older videos. “Thank you YouTube recommendations”.

Happy New Years everyone! I know it is has been a while since my last post. I shall start the new years with a new real post! What will I talk about? Well, let’s talk about political con artists. I want to focus on con-servatives most of all. Also why con-servatives are easier to sniff out opposed to grifting liberals. Look, it’s not as easy to come up with an insult for the grifters on the left.

It took my lazy ass long enough but I finally fixed the comment section. For some reason none of the icons properly display but I am working on that. Right now you can login with either Twitter or Google. The blue circle is for Twitter and the orange is for Google. After you login you seem to need to refresh and then you can comment. I’ve not figured out why you need to refresh but there you go. Feel free to argue and disagree with me.
Why did I choose to use Twitter and Google? Well, I want to add more social media logins but I am working on fixing the icon issues right now. As for why I am choosing social media logins: I don’t want to expose your personal information just for you to comment on my blog. This way you can use a company you trust the most with your information. You also don’t have to worry about me selling your private information or anything. I don’t even get your email address if you login with a non-Google account. Google automatically submits it to me for some reason. Point is this is the most secure way I can offer a comment system.
Where did I go?
Hey-o everyone. Sorry for vanishing again. Things haven’t been going well. I’m not entirely sure where to start.
