  • I was lazy and asked gemini to do this.

    Here are the key points of the article in bullet points:

    • Bowlero, a private equity-backed bowling company, has been rapidly expanding by acquiring existing bowling centers.

    • Bowlero’s focus is on entertainment rather than bowling, with features like loud music, expensive cocktails, and video games.

    • Serious bowlers complain that Bowlero centers are poorly maintained and have raised prices significantly.

    • Bowlero has faced accusations of ageist and racist hiring practices, with a federal investigation currently underway.

    • Bowlero’s stock price has been boosted by investment personality Jim Cramer, but some analysts believe the company is overvalued.

    • Independent bowling centers are worried that Bowlero’s expansion will threaten their existence.

    • Professional bowler Parker Bohn III criticizes Bowlero for not caring about the sport of bowling.

    Commenting because I’m in the same boat.

    Gmail was so handy because it did a good job at filtering the spam and offered customization. But it’s doing a worse job at the spam and not a good enough one at customization. Where should I go?

    Proton mail? Some similar platform?

    I’m terrible at maintaining my email but I check it often enough.


  • My personal journey with sleep meds - I think it’s a success

    • staying up all the time my sleep schedule keeps changing
    • start taking Seroquel
    • buy ear plugs and an eyemask
    • staying up all the time my sleep schedule keeps changing with weird side minor effects
    • get off of Seroquel
    • staying up all the time my sleep schedule keeps changing
    • more structured life and better habits
    • staying up sometimes and my sleep schedule changes sometimes and it’s rough when it does
    • try melatonin - feels like it hardly does anything
    • covid lockdown hits - my PCP tells me about a study where ppl who took massive doses of melatonin had better immune systems
    • take massive amounts of melatonin
    • sleep schedule does better than ever!
    • do well on this for about 3 years
    • learn that melatonin likely effects your reproductive system
    • get off it and replace it with eating pistachios at night (which have an insanely high melatonin amount)
    • sleep schedule better than ever!
    • ween off of needing it every night
