this is not a common outcome but a year later I still think getting 30x WGS done was actually useful for seeing what types of things in my body are especially stressed/bottlenecked while sick (metabolic variants and ion channel issues) also knowing HLA is cool

Very confused by what people expect me to do when they say "hold on a second". Have you ever tried to hold on a second? It's freaking impossible! Seconds keep happening one after the other no matter what you do!

i feel so emotional -- it's like these are made for me -- main pdf reading in pdf reader top-left, google doc and auxiliary google search top-right, codex + obsidian down below, gpt voice running in the background at <$3/hour, sony xm4s blasting music, fully blinkered, no physical-world distractions, aaaaaah. im tweeting to u guys from behind my xreal glasses rn!!! sorry, xreal monitor is like standing desk and monitor all-in-one!!! sooo good for work-life separation also :o it's this general trend of bringing environment optimization inwards, the *afferent impulse*, get more done in-house; blackout curtains -> myhalos sleep mask, monitor+standing desk -> xreal glasses, p100 respirator -> immune-computer interface next?
