Polyunsaturated FAs are vulnerable to oxidation in the cell. Monounsaturated FAs seem to be relatively stable in a redox context. Most of the lit you’ll find is quite granular, regarding downstream metabolites of linoleic acid. For example, search 4-HNE on pubmed as a start.
@TeamHerrold
I mean it in a complimentary way, of course. I’m a friendly reply guy (98th percentile).
I can recognize the down sides to being conventionally handsome enough to facilitate a 250k catfish fraud, but still. You’ve done well for yourself, as victimhood goes.
@loganzuber17
I know some vendors who do. They sell copycat packages to builders at slight discounts over name brands. The quality I’ve experienced looks good on day 1 but tends to fail catastrophically under daily use, doorknobs and faucets especially.
@mountainwesttax
I forbid this. Nobody I follow is allowed to buy a million dollar double-wide on a chemical weapons superfund. It’s time to look for some remote work, out of state arbitrage opportunities.

Architect’s probably just a disciple of Harvard Graduate School of Design? I understand Rem Koolhaas strongly encourages that plywood and the like remain exposed, so that a house may interrogate the formaldehyde from which its glued? I vote no drywall.
@ClintFiore
I feel like you're making progress on convincing me to take on the suburban dad bucket-list project of getting a pilot's license? Do you mind pasting the whole spreadsheet?
@realEstateTrent
Manhattan is among the only American cities where you should probably figure out how to give up your car? Then, when you someday leave NYC, you have to figure out how to give up profanity. You can’t just drop F-bombs in the Kroger produce section like you would in the Balducci’s.
@johnplumstead
My kid loves that place. He says, “Dad, it’s not a restaurant, it’s a roadhouse. That means you can throw your food on the floor.” No plans to correct him.
@michaelwatson2
Agreed, my town is de facto owned by a 3rd gen collard magnate. He’s quite short, kinda portly, but overly confident. He wears a white suit with a bolo, and drives a convertible. Everyone calls him “Boss” but not in a condescending way.
@Breck_Maynokur
One DIY hack that works is, replace the switch with a Lutron Casita, cover the Lutron switch with the art, and then install a Lutron Pico remote trimmed as a wall switch anywhere you want. Will probably cost you $75ish?

As a responsible father, I keep a chart of my kids’ tonsil size, and inexplicably, they both track bitcoin valuations to within about 5%.

I don’t know why I’m actually going to give you a straight answer (in this age of media), but I guess I just didn’t sleep well last night?
You’d need to identify the missing, previously installed items during the walkthrough, in advance of closing. Then, at the closing…
@LegacyBuilder__
I recently overheard a mom try to ground her millionaire son for breaking curfew. The son looked up from his laptop and said, “You can’t ground me, bro. You’re grounded!” He actually called his mom “bro” and grounded her. There was nothing she could do. He’s 15.
@shawngorham
People say I sound older in my voice, but it’s really just because I call everyone “Sonny” and drop a lot of WW2 references. I’m only 47, but I’ve been told I sound like a 110 year old.
@sweatystartup
I used to put cayenne pepper spray on my leather sofa to prevent my cat from doing her worst to it. The spicy residue was so harsh on my eyes during my binge watching that I finally had to let down my guard. Homegirl destroyed that leather. I loved that sofa, RIP.
@ScepticalDoctor
@RayPeatQuotes
It’s not terrifying. Redox is essential to life. If you pubmed search 4-HNE, you’ll find thousands, many of which are human. The first page of results will address some of your questions. I mean, maybe you’re being rhetorical and I’m misreading the tone?
@Levijameshere
Someone rolled coal on me earlier today for only going 7 above the speed limit. It was at that moment that I instantly respected his dominance. He won that round fair and square.

@realEstateTrent
I’m gonna write a 1 page letter to myself titled “my ideal cheeseburger”. It’s a slow Friday night over here.
Tell me more about some of the features and qualities you manifested?
@shawngorham
You've been anti-roofing for as long as I've known you. I read your tweets to my kids at night before bed. We're an anti-roofing family because of you. If you reverse on us, I don't know what'll happen.
@meetmikehiggins
But if you’ve gotten all the way to moving day when you realize the mirrors are missing, you’ve kinda passed the civil remedy phase of the deal. Now you find yourself in a spiritual battle. I recommend taking this frustration and sublimating it to a combative political identity.
@StudentRentPro
Haha, if only you would buy college housing on my culdesac. I’d be like Rodney Dangerfield over there, making up for the frat life I missed. You’d have some explaining to do to my family about why I’m never home. Dad’s next door, a red solo cup in hand, wearing a phish shirt.
@ibuyrvparks
He’s attempting to solve a complaint with a complaint. This is the fantasy of “complaint phase inversion” where a complaint is neutralized by and equal but opposite complaint. If done just right, it will result in 0 complaints instead of 2. If successful, he’s the hero pioneer!
@sweatystartup
I can’t help but worry this whole post, but especially the 100 mile bike ride and wife/love motif, is a means of one-upping

@shawngorham
I’m struggling with the knowledge that you’re supposed to be on twitter hiatus right now? Do you mind if I mark you down on my calendar as having returned early?
@ShlomoChopp
Well, he got ripped off. The best way to buy a building is to go to Staples, where you get 3x points, then buy Staples Visa gift cards. Finally, use the gift cards to buy the skyscraper.

I came to the comments to find and enjoy the celebration of book matched marble slabs. That extra bit of magic is so worth it. I love the international style vibe. Still holding out for an excuse to book match walnut veneer someday.

Agreed.
The next thing you know, we’ll be charged $25 for a burger at a restaurant.
Wait, I’m being told we live in this dystopia already.
@roblabonne
Since 2009 I have been on a quest never to tweet, only to reply. I hope to uphold my vow of abstinence until 2029. Thank you for recognizing my profound sacrifice.
@ScepticalDoctor
@RayPeatQuotes
Yes, I understand, that’s why I suggested you search 4-HNE on pubmed. 4-HNE is a metabolite of n6. By the way, I’m not vilifying n6, nor ROS, nor fiber, etc. I did a similar n=1 last year, so I follow your hypothesis. I didn’t realize you were being rhetorical.
@SMB_Attorney
I thought about this a bit, and happiness is an interesting meditation. A broad swath of context that’s missing and worth noting are the hoardes of lower status people who are unhappy. I see a scary amount of maladaptive phenomena in my exposure to the non-elite stratas…
@SMB_Attorney
For the record, it’s a leaf blower. Bob’s nervous system is incapable of relaxing, so every minute he’s at home (not taking a work call) needs to be spent blowing leaves and mulch. Good luck trying scroll twitter on the back porch while multi-millionaire Robert is home.
@NipseyHoussle
I don’t see anything wrong with this dude’s deal. It’s cash flowing, he’s got his money back, and he knows what capex is. I give this guy my blessing. What’s the complaint?
@shawngorham
I’m at peace with resigning.
However, if a dad wanted to teach his kid that it’s fruitless to fight over dimes when one should really only fight over dollars with asymmetrical upside potential, then I might change my mind?
A Pyrrhic victory isn’t worth the energy.
@SullyBusiness
I tip my hat at this 60yo stranger. She would be welcomed as a top person of replies with that kind of unsolicited advice. Did you happen to ask for her twitter handle?
@chrissundberg
He’s in distress right now, having to do these house calls. Text him tonight and uncover more of the pain narrative? I recommend opening the text conversation with “you up?”
@LegacyBuilder__
Most of the teenagers in my suburban neighborhood are making >100K/mo with no code. The worst performer I know is actually mixing in some code and only netting ~50K/mo. This is creating a lot of problems for the families because no code is giving the teens too much power.
@theficouple
Even more unpopular opinion: parents should charge their adult kids STR rates, including cleaning fees, when they visit for weekends and holidays.
@sweatystartup
This could end up being Nick’s most prophetic post? I’m always game to hear from anyone who understands that 70% debt isn’t risk free. I also love a good anti-sales pitch, and this functions relatively well in that regard, also.
@SullyBusiness
@OneBetterDay
Have you thought about forcing him to accept payment? What if you lured him to a remote location and forced a duffle bag of cash on him? Just thinking out loud.
@shawngorham
I’ve met so many flippers who say, I wanna make $X on a flip, with no mention of the capital at risk, nor the profit margin in the model. It’s more common than you think. Then they get edged into a higher-end single exit niche where one deal can blow them out.
@Stanley_Tweets
Respect to your friend for sticking to his thesis at the expense of his reputation. Sounds like he will have >6 years of dry powder ready for the day when he finally meets his investment criteria in the wild.
@RobertMSterling
At risk of mistaking this bait, I notice Ciera studied textiles. That’s relatively practical. Maybe she’ll take over as CEO of Berkshire Hathaway someday, assuming they still produce textiles? Or maybe she can buy another textiles company & turn it into the next Berkshire?
@ShadowConserva1
@TripleNetInvest
No, they will immediately sell the property, for any amount, and buy new cars. The deferred maintenance on the houses will continue.
@johnplumstead
My kid and I are going to spill some peanut shells in your honor at five guys next time we’re there. Any establishment that uses sacks of potatoes as decor is a roadhouse, not a restaurant.
@vannman26
I don’t find it useful to say that someone yields a Range Rover lifestyle by owning 10 doors. Hype is cheap. However, I would be very interested in discussing the actual data, the actual arrangement, even a hypothetical recipe via data. Cough up the data.

@fire_bottle
The point is really that protein has enjoyed this benign reputation for quite a while, the residue of which is still the prevailing paradigm. I rarely see mTOR caveats from most nutrition gurus, much less the idea that protein could be adversely metabolic for many.
@meetmikehiggins
For example, I know an older gentlemen here whose trim carpenter glossed over some cabinet door workmanship issues. This old man has effectively turned his defective cabinet frustration outward, toward a residual policy of the Obama presidency that plays well in his peer group.
@Levijameshere
Meanwhile, the real aces, who barely average 17% over 10 years, are too humiliated to slide into DMs and grovel with their measly low double-digit returns.
@shawngorham
In 2009 I joined Twitter with the goal of having something to tweet, anything. By 2010, I still hadn’t tweeted my first tweet. Years passed. Nothing. After 14 long years of silence, I think I am ready to let my dream of having a first tweet die.
@sweatystartup
My kid became obsessed with that place when we moved to real America. He kept repeating, “Dad, it’s not a restaurant, it’s a roadhouse.” To him, the distinction meant one could politely throw any food item on the floor. He was seduced by the peanut shells flying everywhere.

@housleyd
@housleyd
is kinda my mentor, per se, although it’s worth noting, he’s not a pure reply play. He originates tweets sometimes. I’m more of a 2nd gen reformist of the genre. Think of me as more of a spiritual seeker who replies as a techno-religious practice of faith?
@financeguy725
You’re also buying a fax machine backed by familial venture debt.
I wish you had not mentioned Outback. You’re really making me miss the old days, when chain restaurants were fully staffed. Old people dare not complain now, and I think it’s making them depressed?
@joshuamschultz
I’m not trying to blow my own horn here, but you should see me ordering at a Chipotle. I get it done, dude. I’m getting like three scoops of beans. They can’t even close the lid on that bad boy when I get through with my agency.
@shawngorham
Kohler is the only honorable warranty program I’ve experienced. If you ever need support or a missing part, they’re the standout. My plumber prefers delta, and fair to say most crews don’t read instructions, so might be worth considering installer’s preference.
@mhp_guy
Let me try to understand the logistics here. You were running to the bathroom when you ran into a virtual stranger, at which point you struck up a one hour conversation about modal pop up windows? Am I missing something?
@SullyBusiness
Anyone who calls me buddy better make sure we’re not anywhere near an unsecured or heavy or inconvenient table, because I’m likely to flip it over and storm out.
@Camp4
No, we propose this kind of thing for super block developments all the time. Once approved, once the eminent domain phase is over, etc etc, we dump the starchitect models and actually build the plans that midwestern firm specializing in medical malls has cooked up.

I don’t have that luxury because my nearest Olive Garden has a roach infestation. There’s only so much focus one can direct at endless salad when roaches are trying to big-time you.
@fire_bottle
I’ve been in an undeclared battle with BCs since 1999. The only protein cautioning voice I’ve encountered since then is Valter Longo, and his approach is largely untenable.
@sweatystartup
I hope my kids have good taste in designer puppies and don’t condescend to that whole rescue farce. I’m a bailout opportunist, but I’ll want my dog valet to see the genealogical paperwork first.

I’d live in a tiny house, but I guess I’d need it to look a bit more intentionally designed? This feels like my rocking chair would rock right off the front porch?

Kind of genius and applicable to many institutions who honor donors.
On a lesser strata, my local Kroger has an employee of the month honors wall by the restroom. Get them before they become donor class and capture the full upside.
@shawngorham
I hate to be the messenger on this, I feel terrible, but it’s the truth. If you know she’s got 16 hours a week to give to a job, as her father, you kinda need to be pushing wholesaling? I know it goes against the family values, I get it, but flipping is just too involved.

@TheDukeofDirt
This is why I’ve chosen to rage over the most minute details of $4M pied-à-terre cabinets. Rage pays. I’m planning to write a sternly worded open letter to Liebherr demanding lower freezer dimensions that align with drawer faces and counter heights. The virality is inevitable.
