And now the browser on the phone is cleaned up.
Have I read all these? No, but some of them. Interesting in a way what they are. Not surprising I guess. Not at all.

Something to keep in mind - esp in the sciences. Sure we have a groper in chief now and the white good ol'boys are loving it up but the science bro stuff exists too. That article is a good delve into that. Esp since Feynman has been a source of inspiration and all that over the years, to be honest, at times I envied the womanizing ability - that's the shy awkward part of me but the part that kept me from all that also recognized how wrong that behavior is and why I could never get close to trying it in any way. Even if I had the courage.
Treat people like people. All of them.

yup - sports stuff

insulin and glucose stuff

Pretty sure most of the arguments can be made if you substitute running for any other physical activity, like say cycling but perhaps not.

And here's another bit wrapping up quite a bit - Bourdain, my 90s MTB crush Furtado, a reminder that I've been pretty damn lucky...
I am very lucky, I feel pretty alone most of the time but I'm not. In the past I've had people to ride with but like life - I move at a different pace and right now I have no one, I also have little time. Most people seem to have moved over to Mt biking more and more. The whole get in the car to go ride and then drive home thing never sits right with me, that and I don't have a MTB that is compatible with the trails around here.
Supposed to be doing the early shopping today. Haven't managed that yet. Might skip it for afternoon shopping and do battle with the emptier store shelves and more crowded aisles but, maybe I'll finish writing, make a coffee and still manage to get to the store, home and then to the bike shop before noon. Kind of have to get my ass up out of bed, the one cup of coffee is making me functional so that's good and having a slow morning is much needed.
Going through the tabs has been an interesting self evaluation exercise.
Now browsers are clear. Actually the tablet (I'm typing on it now) has all these tabs, so I'll go through them once more before closing them).
Cued up an audiobook for the bike building - The Feed. interesting, kind of the opposite of the Medusa chronicles that I listened to a bit ago. or at least different take on implanted connectivity. In this case what happens when it goes away. Not sure I like it but I started it so will finish it.
Alright - need more coffee, maybe racing through the morning will boost productivity for the rest of the day and I'll get stuff accomplished. and then come home and make dinner instead of being a useless lump.
