Till your fingers bleed

G-morning 🦁 This is Andrew's Apples - spend the Fourth eating hot dogs, igniting illegal fireworks, and shooting automatic rifles into the sky using one arm. This is not a political statement. I have in recent months begun to redirect my energy into “higher” activities, such as watching good movies and running like a bat out of hell. I will return to politics when I have both made my tiny fortune and screened the combined film canons of Japan, France, Italy, the UK, and the US. I missed you guys. I have been doing some thinking about how Andrew’s Apples ought to grow up… perhaps a short under-5m-per-episode podcast, perhaps a small physical book that compresses all previous posts, perhaps nothing. Albeit a small outfit, I find joy in writing these and if one single person out there likes reading them, then onward and upward we must go. Tell me what you think. Anyway, here is some stuff:

🦍 Anabolic drugs. Here is the unusual list of anabolic drugs that help burn fat: sunlight, sleeping 7-9 hours, liver, steak, oysters, raw cheese and milk, not wearing tight clothing, pasture eggs, collagen, raw honey, sprinting, walking, and moderate use of caffeine and nicotine. I will not post sources because a simple google search will drown you in evidence of all of the above. 🍎Andrew's Take. I recently watched the Arnold documentary on Netflix. On one hand it is impressive how he made bodybuilding cool and mainstream in the 1970s, on the other he looks like a complete freak. Arms like legs. Tiny head. And boy was he on steroids. The ones your body does not produce on its own. There is no way that steroids played zero role in his need for heart surgery a mere decade later (it almost killed him). The above “drugs” are not only better, but preferred by our ancestors. Yes, the ones who at once competed in the Olympics and wrote great philosophy.

🕊️ Tweet of the Day. Anyone who has ever spent even a small amount of time in a gym has heard some variation of “running’s for losers.” It oftentimes spills out of the mouth of a fridge-shaped man who can, sure, bench 350 pounds, but can’t finish a mile. Too gassed. Huffing and puffing like an upright water buffalo. Sad!

How about them Apples? Hit me with any comments or questions or hate speech.
