Falim Gum
Mewing is an exercise technique for the tongue and jaw muscles, with the goal of reshaping one’s face into a more desirable Chad-like appearance. In most cases, it involves overpriced plastic bite guards, but I recommend the much more affordable Falim gum (for beginners) or Tears of Chios tree (for experts). It's a very strange and profound thing to watch your face subtly change over time. Don’t go overboard or you will seriously injure your joints!

This review for falim gum: “Flavor: weak men complain about the flavor, and well they should as this gum is not meant for them. This is the gum for a man who knows what he likes and they don't deserve the face gains this gum offers. People say it tastes "herby" which is somewhat true, but the flavor is actually resin through and through. While it is strong at first, it grows weaker but never leaves. At first, I found it unpleasant because I was in my youth and wasn't prepared to understand strength, but now I have come to appreciate it for what it is.”

Serial Experiments Lain
Artist Rachel Rossin introduced me to this anime series from 1998. Serial Experiments Lain is an early cyberpunk mystery (that predates and heavily influences The Matrix) where the online and offline worlds blur in strange and unexpected ways. The show has some really beautiful art direction and points at today’s “extremely-online” social alienation with incredible foresight.

Capitalist Realism by Mark Fisher
I honestly hadn’t heard about this book until I saw a shit ton of memes about it a few years ago. Capitalist Realism is a very worthwhile read and I can definitely see why it's so popular now. Fisher does a great job articulating the cultural experience of neoliberalism. This book set me on the right path in life. I also got much smarter and more attractive after reading it.

Simple Soap
Your average soap brand is full of phthalates, xenoestrogens and other endocrine disrupting chemicals that are making you sick, lowering testosterone levels and shrinking your fetal infant’s taint (it’s real). In the US this stuff is basically totally unregulated and corporations are allowed to dump toxic chemicals into the public sphere. A few easy ways to reduce your exposure is to: use an unscented soap (Simple Soap), store food in glass or metal containers and stop touching receipts. You don’t need to be maxxing, you will just feel better if you absorb less plastic.
