creapure got too expensive IMHO probably tariffs

but you are right, independent testing finds some brands are garbage

I switched to sportsresearch brand when they had a sale on amazon

$19 for 1KG (2.2 pounds) but it's like double that now (don't buy) amazon.com/dp/B0DXR7MPNV

I’ve found nutricost to be good (they do well in Suppco’s analyses apparently), and they have a great variety of supplements, but very few “blend” type products - I.e. they’re a good place to get what you want for a good deal and nothing more.

not sure if I got it from here or reddit but someone made an automated site that gathers all published creatine studies

The water retention can be avoided with low-dose creatine which still has some benefits in studies

Instead of 5grams/day like 2grams/day

You can also spread it out during the day to avoid retention, 1000mg x 4 or x 2

Creatine is also a precursor to SAM-e which is a natural antidepresant

every 1 single day = another 1 week of misery for the world

100 ships per day now single digits sometimes zero

90 days = 90 weeks

except it's going to be still like this in SIX MONTHS if not all the way through January 2029

wait until Cuba happens some Friday night too

Yes.

if the Dems don't also take back the Senate, this country is done

it will take longer than this decade, maybe even next, to restore the brain loss and faith in secure jobs for research

basically this country will just become a highway of non-stop warehouses, alternating ICE prisons vs "AI" datacenters

science, medicine, all research and development just gone to other countries

Ever notice how there really always just enough Democrats in the senate to tank a progressive bill? The Senate needs to go honestly.

When the constitution was first written up, senators were all appointed. People had to fight to amend the constitution to allow us to even vote for senators. And the presidency was definitely not meant to have as much impact as it does today. The whole thing seemed drawn up to give the "vibes" of a democracy while protecting elite interests. In fact James Madison basically explicitly admits this in Federalist No. 10. He supposed that true democracy would result in people voting to redistribute wealth and, the founding fathers all being bourgeois, that just wouldn't do.

ah there's a good term

so "AI" mania ("AI" derangement syndrome?)

when ram and storage starts to cost as much as rent or a car eventually

now we just wait for the bubble collapse and lots of cheap hardware even if slightly used

sadly the AI it produces despise the overhype is still way more useful than tulips. I don't think bubble burst would get us to RAM prices pre-boom for a while

it is easier to list the few days of his life that he did not commit crimes

most now just outright in plain sight as if that makes them okay

he's even moved onto outright murders of innocent civilians, kids in illegal wars

most corrupt crime-spree in history, there is literally no end to his horrors
