if grape nuts are bad for you I’m assuming all cereal across the board is unhealthy? I’m not sure a “healthy” breakfast option exists in that case aside from unflavored unsweetened oatmeal which might as well be wallpaper paste

e: my usual non-cereal option is a banana with my coffee, surely that can’t be too terrible health wise

“healthy” is a very vague term

breakfast cereal is more or less universally a combo of carbs and sugar. which can absolutely be “healthy” for you if you’re burning those calories or have the high metabolism of an adolescent. if you’re eating a big bowl of cereal to get in your car, drive to the office, sit at a desk, and then drive home, you’re probably going to have a better time with a less calorie-dense breakfast

yeah but there's that funny tendency for any CG to cost way more than just building physical props and sets, which I imagine is still going to happen when you need like 50 people to spend a week coaxing an AI to do an operation one guy could do in photoshop in 15 minutes.

Flaming Lips frontman Wayne Coyne's family owns most of the commercial real estate in our student ghetto part of town and they're driving businesses out en masse by jacking the loving rents up, I thought the entire point of a student ghetto was that it's cheap so cool weird poo poo can happen there.

Costco might be winding down stocking Bud Light.


"Bud Light sales have been plunging since spring after an ill-fated social media marketing campaign caused political backlash. Data from Bump Williams Consulting and NielsonIQ suggests the brand sold 28.5% fewer beer cans in the week ended July 1. The week before, sales plunged 27.9%."

Also lol

"In response, Anheuser-Busch has initiated a temporary rebrand of the Bud Light product. Aluminum bottles of the beverage will feature camouflage prints and images evoking the “Folds of Honor” program that offers special educational assistance to the spouses and children of disabled and deceased U.S. Army veterans."

Support the gays or support the troops, an American dichotomy.
