Kitsune:
I was hesitant to play Smash Bros with my siblings during Easter but I played anyways. Of course, I ended up looking like a tomfool. :'(

I've come to realization that multiplayer games overwhelm me and I prefer to play in single player mode. I rather play for my own enjoyment and not be judged by others. Anyone here in this same boat?

Now, I should play my good ol casual flash games sometime.

I’ve been working this new door to door job for a week and a half now and I know that I’m not eating enough to maintain my size at this activity level, let alone gain. Any tips for high calorie options that I can bring with me to work?

there’s enough demand in the American market any importer will pay reluctantly at a loss, the importer could hike prices all they want it would only increase the tax.

there are going to be people who say import taxes are justifying price increases merely to make profit it’s economical.

I mean, kudos to you if you can take the hit, but that's not a lot of people. And RIP to the small businesses that are failing specifically because of the tariffs.

We also lack the infrastructure to manufacture all the overseas products here. It will take years, over a decade in some cases. If he wanted to create more American jobs by forcing businesses to operate over here, this is the worst way to do it.

The wealthy will always find ways to stay wealthy. They will probably be fine in the long term concerning the tariffs. But the average American? Not so much.

At some point activity will inevitably stop though. My now wife was in the 200s ten years ago and quit mobile, agile and fit. She has been steadily gaining over the years- something I discreetly encouraged - until almost 5 years ago when I confessed to her that I am a feeder and that was the turning point of her massive gain. She is now 593lbs and although not immobile, she’s hardly mobile. Even though we were happy in a relationship as a girlfriend and boyfriend, i wanted her to feel secure in this new condition.. that i will always take care of her and be there for her regardless of her massiveness and immobility, so we got married a few months ago. I love how she let go, and I can’t wait to see her hitting 600 and beyond even if it means that we can’t do together all these activities normal young couples do. I love driving her around and going out to restaurants that have accessible seating for her. Or pushing her wheelchair when we go to malls.

No because most food products come from America. We’re like the world’s biggest exporter of food.
And most importers are American anyways.

I don’t support Trump at all but I supported the tariffs because it made billionaires who got Trump elected lose money, 500 billion dollars to be exact, and just shows anyone who’s paying attention who’s truly in power. I want representation in my government not lobbyists and tech billionaires.

Holy fuck 47 lbs in that short amount of time is insane

It sure is! Heavy whipping cream is no joke.
It really is magic blimp juice. I'm glad I still have my fat clothes because I outgrew my regular wardrobe. Went from a normal weight of 158 pounds to an obese 205 pounds.

I hit a plateau, so I took a break for one week. I hope that was enough to reset things. I have been back on the heavy whipping cream for a little over a week and hope to see the pounds start piling on again.

1,000 calories from fat is about as much as the body can handle in one sitting. If you want a higher calorie shake than that, you'll need to add carbs to it. Another option is to have more servings per day.

I don't make shakes. I recently watched a youtube video about a weight gain idea, and it is absolute genius! I make pudding. I use 1 package of family-size instant pudding and mix it with about 1,200 ml of heavy whipping cream. The recipe specifies about 700 ml of milk, but when I tried that with the heavy whipping cream, it was too thick and sweet. 1,200 ml of heavy whipping cream is perfect.

This stuff is absolutely delicious and addictive. It really is a shame we can only handle about 1,000 calories of fat at a time. I could eat this pudding all day. My favorite flavors are vanilla and banana cream.

I eat this three times per day on weekends, and twice per day on weekdays, only because I don't have a suitable container for it, but I am working on that. In the meantime, I cover the third serving on weekdays by just drinking heavy whipping cream and chasing it with some cookies to get rid of the aftertaste.

Three servings per day works for me. I am able to do this consistently, every day, and I have already gained 47 pounds since January of this year.

How are the tariffs and other political issues impacting your ability to gain?

I mean they were recently paused so it hasn't impacted my financial situation too much. But assuming the come back in full force eventually it'll make certain foods a lot harder to get here in the US, since a lot of fruits just can't be grown here. And even if in a later version of the tariff plan food is exempted, everything else will still increase in price so I'll have less money to spend on overeating. Across the board tariffs are a bad idea, anyone who tries to convince you otherwise is a lunatic

Munchies:
Shit like this makes me think of the Maduro diet. For those not in the know, back in 2010, Venezuelans were having severe food shortages under President Maduro due to his gross incompetence.

I'm not saying it will be that bad for us, but I foresee many feedees and gainers slimming down - no Ozempic needed.
