personally, I could take it or leave it. and since it was a bunch of extra shit all over the bathroom counter and just another thing to periodically buy more of, I decided to leave it.

I'm more interested in strategies and creating habits around eating well, getting some exercise every day, and maintaining my living area and my person to functional and hygienic standards instead of getting too caught up in chasing youth as an aesthetic.

there are a million and one voices blasting from every outlet at me daily telling me I'm eccentric or just wrong... that I should just eat the triple decker cheese burger, take metabolic pills, and get a chemical skin peel.
