Daily Stormer The Most Censored Publication in History
Sam Rockwell had a surprise cameo in White Lotus this week. The clip above is one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen, but the funniness was outweighed by how shocked I was at how good this guy looks. I said “he’s gotta be 52, and he looks like that?” I looked it up and that nigga be 56 years old.
I understand of course that movie stars have access to all sorts of health things, but frankly, I’m not really convinced that much of this is out of the reach of a normal middle class person. It’s possible he’s had plastic surgery, but if he did it was just a neck lift, which is not something that carries risk of turning into a monster, and it isn’t very expensive either.
He could also be on TRT, I can’t really tell without seeing him with his shirt off. (He’s wearing a tightish t-shirt and doesn’t have indications that he’s on any kind of serious dose if he is on it.)
But most of the reasons a man is going to look like that at 56 is simply that he’s taken care of himself, primarily through diet and fitness. I’ve really been thinking a lot about this lately, what with my fast. I broke my fast today with some juice and a disgusting overcooked vegetable soup. (I read a whole lot about refeeding syndrome, and I’m following all of the protocols.)
I’ve more or less completely stopped smoking in favor of Zyn. (I’m not quitting nicotine, it’s just not worth it, no matter what the benefits are. I’ve done it before. It’s not worth it. But it’s the smoke that’s the health issue, not the nicotine. Even RFK does Zyn.)
I’m also going to continue an “alcohol fast” for the rest of Lent, and just see how that goes. I might stop drinking so much. I am not joining the AA cult, which I think is evil and just destroys people’s lives, but I might well become a “bottle of wine with dinner a couple times a week” type of guy. I’m not committing to that. Alcohol has been a big part of my life since I was a teenager, and it’s been a big part of my work for the last 12 years. In some ways, it is my best friend, and I don’t think we should abandon our friends. But it’s something I’m seriously considering cutting back on significantly.
I’m also not doing any more bodybuilding at all. A couple years ago, I could have actually competed for squat champ. I was only 73 kilos, so I’m not saying I’d have the highest squat, but my body weight to squat weight was pretty incredible. I obviously lost about .5 kg (1 pound) a day during the fast, so I’m going to gain some weight back, but I think I’m going to seriously analyze what I want my weight to be, and it should probably be lower than 73. I still think strength training is very good, but I’ve decided it’s really unhealthy to increase your weight in order to increase your strength.
A good portion of the readership are millennials, now staring down middle age, and I think we should all be looking at the disgusting bulbous boomers and realizing that we don’t have to become that. We can have dignity and look good well into middle age, if we so choose. People did this all throughout history, so we shouldn’t look at the fact that boomers are the old people we are looking at and assume that we are just going to become disgusting blobs of goo like they did. We can be strong and healthy into our fifties and beyond if we make good and responsible decisions.
White Lotus 3
This might be the worst season of White Lotus, even though it has my favorite actor, Walton Goggins. But even if it is the worst season, it is still so much better than anything else created in the last decade. And it might not be the worst. I need to see how the ending unfolds to really make any kind of judgement on it. I think I reviewed the first two seasons on here, and I will do it again for this season, but not until it’s over.
With shows I want to watch (which is very rare these days), I usually wait until it is over before I start watching it, so I can watch one episode a day or whatever. But I was excited about White Lotus (especially because I know all these locations in Thailand), and started the “episode per week” thing. I don’t think this is the way the show is meant to be watched and it is probably giving me a worse impression than I would have watching it all together. Waiting a week for a setup episode can leave a bad taste in your mouth.
Maybe, it necessarily has to be the worst season, because Tanya is dead. But I don’t think it is bad at all, and I think the fact I don’t really even have an indication of who is going to die is an indicator of quality. Obviously, we all make guesses when watching the show, but I can go through all of the options and I don’t see any as more likely than any of the others.
Anyway, I’ll post a real review when it’s over in a couple weeks.
