At this point 70% of my personality is raw milk - procuring it, drinking it, taking photos of it with pithy little captions like ânight cap!â, talking about it to other people against their will, like on dates or to like trapped baristas at Starbucks. As someone of formerly lactose intolerant experience, I am not exaggerating when I say raw milk has VITALLY improved my existence. Besides the fact that it has something like 70% more available vitamins in it than pasteurized milk (I keep an infographic of this on my phone because Iâm a girl and canât be expected to remember numbers and science) it has all its natural enzymes for digestion which means not only can I party on as much raw milk and cheese as I want, the enzymes in those also digest regular bootleg ass milk, cheese, ice cream etc. I love you so much raw milk!!!

I can't tolerate pasteurized diary at all really, so raw milk has been great for me. I also think it tastes better, but you just have to make sure it's coming from a trustworthy farm.

Listen, guys, Iâm with youâIâm appalled by the mass-scale animal cruelty of factory-farmed dairy, not to mention the poor nutritional quality and foul taste of its resultant product. That said, I donât have a dog in the raw milk fight; while I canât muster outrage over it, I also canât bring myself to careâmuch like many political issues Iâm socially obligated to have a black-and-white opinion on. I find myself torn between my opposition to authoritarian nanny-state control and my inherent distrust of the Amish, the common purveyors of black-market raw milk (itâs fine, they canât read this unless theyâre on RumspringaâI guess, in which case: welcome, Jebediah).
Anyway, I just wanted to let you all know that thereâs a middle path between factory-farmed slop and forbidden milk straight from the cowâs teat: organic, grass-fed, regeneratively farmed A2 beta-casein milk from heritage cows. A2 beta-casein is easier to digest because itâs the primary protein in human breast milk; cowâs milk originally contained only A2 beta-casein until a sinister genetic mutation introduced A1 beta-casein, now dominant in nearly all commercially available milk. A1 beta-casein is much harder to digest because it doesnât break down as easily in the body. I love Alexandre Family Farms and Origin; they have great animal welfare standards and their products taste amazing. You can even get A2 beta-casein ice cream from Alecâs brand! Seeâyou can make a cool enlightened alternative choice without being an annoying contrarian about it.

I got into weight lifting for the same reason I get into most things, which is pure unbridled vanity. I read or heard somewhere in my many biohacker information channels that weight lifting is the most anti-aging form of exercise, especially for women, and so I was like on my way! I wasnât about to pay some community college bro $100 an hour at my LA Fitness to train me though so I just googled âweight lifting classes near meâ and because I live a charmed and bless life I found the fucking coolest independent gym like a mile from my house and have been going there for almost a year. Vanity aside, it just makes you feel so good all the time. I love watching myself get stronger and I love the feeling after you lift something really heavy you thought you could never have lifted and I love all the neighborhood friends Iâve made there, including former PI subject and possibly coolest girl alive Petra Cortright. (Honestly a large part of my social life takes place there?) Anyway everyone over 30 should lift weights, preserve your waning muscle mass and build up your self-esteem babe.

My favorite kind of movie is a kind they really went hard on in the 90s, where itâs largely just interesting characters talking to each other about ideas the whole time and the dialogue almost sounds like a play. Walk and talk movies, if you will. Hal Hartleyâs are like that but dropped into these sort of fantastical, dramatic plotlines. I love them so much. Surviving Desire or Trust are perfect ones to start with.

If you can do this, every day is filled with moments that fill you with joy and wonder. This already happened to me like eight times today, starting with my perfect smoothie (other moments included seeing a squirrel, walking past these cool flowers that look like fried eggs, and smelling the new perfume samples I ordered). Itâs pretty easy, just go stand outside and look at something beautiful. There are gorgeous things everywhere. If youâre having trouble connecting with this, which I do sometimes because Iâm not a lobotomized freak and also because life can truly beat you down, just take like 1-2 grams of mushrooms like two hours before sunset and then go on a super long walk with great music in your headphones and I promise youâll remember how fucking cool it is just to get to be alive.
