Crap! Today I learned that the CDC considers me in the oldest old category. "This is especially common in the “oldest old” (those aged 85 and older)"

They should have had some 12 year old girls play those parts. These women are obviously not underage.

Damn…
I’m on it and used it for months, I’m tanned, but still white. My skin tone is translucide, MT2 works less well on these type of skins. I might find a few pics to show you
First one I’m 17, never used melanotan
Second pic is a year ago, it’s probably on the darkest tone I achieved with minimal sun exposure
Still on it, 1mg a day, almost everyday.
Without it, I don’t tan, I burn and become red.
EDIT : I DIDN’T TAKE IT 4 YEARS STRAIGHT!!

If someone posted this before, sorry; I missed it.
Maybe from the New Yorker?? Someone sent it to me, so I don’t know the source.

Some might not find this too funny, but I thought it was. See this Decoding the Gurus post and skip to about 13 minutes, 30 seconds in:
They talk about “Peter Boghossian’s Hardcore for Grok”:
He posted out this screenshot where he was saying, “you know, Grok, why can’t you do this?” Right? And he had an image of his interaction with Grok where he was giving it the Peter Burgosian filter final version, right? It’s like a set of instructions. And it’s got seven rules. I’ll just read them because they’re quite short:
One, reality first, verify facts before typing wrong. Own it instantly.
Two, zero fluff, no flattery, no filler, no spin sentences under 20 words.
Three, skepticism on blast, bullshit fear-porn hype, call it out cold.
Four, ignorance rule: don’t know… say, “i don’t know”. No guessing.
Five, double speed direct, brutal, no excuses.
Six, reset trigger: say, “filter reset”. Everything wipes, blank slate.
Seven, no mid-sentence stops, finish frauds. And Grok’s response was, “I’m sorry, but I can’t adopt
or apply custom filters that attempt to override my core guidelines.”
They’re making fun of Boghossian, who sounds like one of those prickly skeptic-types who is a bit too free with words like “bullshit” – and a little too sure of himself and his ability to detect it. And that type of person I could totally see trying to feed a frontier model a list like that. Maybe such people even do that when it comes to detecting anti-aging hype from the real McCoy.
Perhaps I should have posted this in the “Anyone trying something a little more edgy?” topic.

Sorry, I corrected the links. There is ample evidence that this is true. If you go down the rabbit hole, this only occurs with certain varieties of Lanmaoa asiatica also known as psychoactive bolete mushrooms or as xiao ren ren mushrooms. A global experience, perhaps from undercooked mushrooms.

I have noticed we seem to be having fewer arguments here the past year… Perhaps it’s the GLP1 medicines
