Find some way to get your heart rate up that you enjoy doing or at least can do consistently, and take in fewer calories. However you do it is up to you, but that's the only way!

Pepperoni! Sometimes Italian sausage and/or bacon.

Depends on your goals! If you're trying to lose weight, I've gotten in shape with DDP Yoga a few times over the years, and elements of it have continued to be mainstays in my gym routine.

I didn't really go in with any particular plan other than "lose weight." I just started setting gym goals (do 10 pull-ups unassisted, Black Crow for 10, then 30, then 60 seconds, etc), then working toward them.

I've always done this more for my mental health than anything else.

Age verification?

I have Neopets that could pass it.

Back during the early PS2 vs Dreamcast era console wars, I believe it was @andrusi.bsky.social who coined the joke:
"PS2: Add a slash, double the power."
Me: Can we get a PS2?

Mom: We have a PS2 at home.

The PS/2 at home:

Seems like an appropriate time. AMA about fitness, working out every day for a year, food, and motivation! (or anything else idc)

I can't relate to desperation
My give-a-fucks are on vacation
And I got this one boy
And he won't stop callin'
When he hits the gym every single day for a GODDAMN YEAR
He's named Josh Wallen

Now he's thinkin' 'bout me every night
Oh, is it that sweet? I guess so
Say you can't sleep? Baby, I know
That's that me espresso
Move it up, down, left, right, oh
Switch it up like Nintendo
Say you can't sleep? Baby I know
That's that me espresso

Holy shit...
Is it that sweet? I guess so

That is the END of the streak! One year is enough, I'm gonna drop back to going 3-4 days a week now.

I don't have to go to the gym tomorrow and it's the WEIRDEST FEELING.

I saw a Youtube short talking about how Tangle and Whisper are about to be the first Sonic characters introduced in a comic to get voice actors, so I'm here to tell anyone who doesn't know it that Charmy Bee first appeared in a manga in 1991 where he looked like this

I too once saw Kid Rock perform in front of a crowd who absolutely could not give a shit about him.

(I promise this is worth listening to. I've never seen anything like it before or since.)

I only caught a few episodes as a kid. It seemed fine! Dedede's voice sure wasn't what I expected, and yet somehow it fit.

Definitely not, putting it on the DS was the right call. Dual screens and Pokémon games are like peanut butter and jelly.

Actually, I always wished Gen V was a 3DS launch game. It came out just 3 weeks later! For a while Black was my most-played game on the new hardware!

I'd been looking forward to it since 1996 and was excited for it to come out!

Then it did, and the reviews were *bad*. I rented it anyway, and yep, they were right, I didn't see any reason to get it when F-Zero GX had just come out and was *right there*.

If SADX and SA2B switched places, I don't think it would've made a huge difference.
