On Tuesday I went for a 14km power walk, I was sore all over, I could barely move by the time I got home – I rested on the sofa but I was still sore so I decided to go to bed and sleep it off. After having a good night sleep I felt so much better so I started the day with some blueberries and unsweetened low fat yoghurt along with some sardines with some sriracha sauce on top. For dinner I had some chicken chowder which was filling – I’ve decided that I need to expand my repertoire of food beyond just salads and proteins.

Conservatives are throwing their toys out of their cott because the half time show at the Super Bowl 2025 isn’t their type of music. I hate to break it to you but the world doesn’t revolve around your every wish, whim and personal taste no matter now much you’d like to convince yourself that you’re the most important person. Was the music at the Super Bowl 2025 half time show the kind of music I listen to? nope but I have the maturity not to grizzle and whine on Tiktok with the sort of reaction one would expect if someone had just had their mother slapped. On a side note, I did like the metal group at the Olympics – the sort of music I listen to isn’t mainstream so people in my position accept that the mainstream doesn’t cater for our tastes and we move along in life.

Unfortunately there is a generation of people who are unable to accept the fact that what they like used to be the mainstream but as society changed what is considered mainstream changed. There is nothing wrong with having a preference, preferring a certain style of music, food, clothing etc. but part of being an adult is accepting that society changes, the US has become more diverse and through the melting pot process what is mainstream society is a reflecting of that diversity, a coming together of different music styles, food, clothing etc. to create something new and unique.
