Presumably Moo Deng would be the water type... would Punch be the fire type and Jimothy the grass type? Or, is it the other way around?

Yep! It's from the opening.

They had me at 40 for a while as it built up; 20 seems to be about right for me as a maintenance dose. I felt like I slept for a week when we cut the dose! :p

My docs put me on prozac (well, the generic version of it anyway; it's cheaper). ~20mg/day seems to be about what I needed. Hope your meds are working out well and you're less anxious now; get your docs to adjust them if not!

For me, I felt tense/"on edge" basically all the time. At some point I realized I couldn't really ever "relax" properly -- just distract myself for a while. I'd overthink trivial things and worry about stuff that didn't really matter... so much so that it was getting hard to just do normal interactions in my life (like take out the trash or check the mail or buy groceries). My heart was pounding all the time to the point that chest pain was fairly common for me but I'd already had heart issues ruled out (even going so far as to wear a monitor for a month) before they pinned it down as general anxiety. You can get a lot of weird transient/phantom issues as a result of anxiety as well.

If you think you've got it, go talk to your doctor.

I've got boxes of spaghetti that are at least six years old (I know I had them on hand during COVID...) which I've cooked up successfully as recently as last week.

YMMV with other types (particularly if it's got any meaningful amount of oil/fat in it) but for spaghetti at least, I haven't yet found an upper bound on usability.

Not sure where it started, but the earliest that comes to mind for me is "Reticulating Splines" from Sim City 2000.

They sell farmed, ground venison in one of the grocery stores I go to. It's imported from New Zealand, IIRC. I got a couple packs of it once. The stuff I got, at least, had a more iron-forward flavor than what I'm used to from beef and was very lean -- which made it less satisfying than ground beef or lamb for most of the dishes I use ground meat for. It tasted like beef that, if I paid attention, was kind of off, but otherwise wasn't very notable. Edible, but not something I've felt much inclination to seek out again. I'd be willing to get it again if it was cheaper or if I need to change my diet to be lower in fat, but otherwise I'd rather just have beef or lamb. I have not tried it as a steak though, and I haven't had wild caught as far as I can recall.

If you just pulled the default version of qwen3.5 from ollama's repo you downloaded a mediocre one that only uses ~6GB.

Check ollama show qwen3.5 and see if you get something like this in the result:

  Model
    architecture        qwen35    
    parameters          9.7B      
    context length      262144    
    embedding length    4096      
    quantization        Q4_K_M 

This is the default version I got when I first tried using ollama without any experience. It worked, but it's a heavily quantized, lower parameter version of the model -- i.e. it's pretty dumb -- compared to what you can actually run on your hardware.
