I started @GetTranquilitas because all of the calming drink mixes use ashwagandha. The products without ashwagandha were essentially just magnesium. I have a blend of inositol, taurine, magnesium glycinate, l-theanine, and saffron extract. It tastes great and really works. If it doesn’t work for you, I’ll refund your purchase.
I stopped taking Ashwagandha for exactly this reason. Made me anhedonic.

xchange-marketplace.netlify.… Holiday shopping is officially solved. X-Change is live! What is X-change? X is always so far ahead of the curve, so I decided to try to aggregate all the brands and founders that push that curve into one platform. Just give a few Quick Look and you'll see not just your favorite brands, but your favorite founders as well All brands currently on here have been pulled from Claude & Grokbot, so if you see your name on here and want to claim it, click the link on your card. If you don't see your brand on here, submit to add yours This is a rudimentary V1 and I am 100% expecting bugs, so let me know if (when) anything breaks, looks wrong, or any other feedback you have Enjoy!
This post inspired me, and now Christmas shopping will have never been easier Im not in the ecom game (yet), but there are so many founders and brands on here that are inspiring in so many ways, and I realized there was no platform where they were all aggregated and supportable So I set Claude and Grokbot to it overnight, and am now building X-Change: A platform for brands built on X to showcase themselves. This is where founders can tell their founding story. Everyone always says how far X is ahead of the curve, this whole platform *is* the front of the curve.

Those small packs require so much work behind the scenes to produce. Things that seem inconsequential are weeks to months of work and waiting to make real.
Let's gooooo! @DrinkSalinity Appreciate it, brother. Single packs will be live this weekend!

Josh wins the pouch of @GetTranquilitas! Tommy weighed in at 116 today. He’s been gaining 16-17 pounds per month. Both of his parents are over 200 pounds.

Last call on this. I'll let it run until 7 pm Eastern tonight. I have the answer already. He also really did not want to step on the scale today. Took 15 minutes of coaxing.
This is Tommy. He’s nearly 7 months old. Mom is an English Mastiff and dad is a Cane Corso. I’m taking him to the vet on the 6th to find out exactly how big he is. If you want to guess what his weight will be on Thursday afternoon, I’ll make it interesting. Free pouch of @GetTranquilitas to the person with the closest guess. We’ll do Price is Right rules where going over means you lose.

You still have time to get your guesses in. I’m waiting for @RAScott324 to swoop in and win because she knows dogs.

This is very true. The vast majority of the small guys on here are doing everything solo. I suppose at some point things progress to outsourced customer service, but you can always @ or DM a founder here. I still get irrationally giddy when I see a new Shopify notification.
the wonderful thing about buying gifts from family businesses here on X is that every purchase is, in its own way, a gift twice over.

We just launched LabTested on Claude. “Show me this batch’s lab results.” “Compare lead and cadmium across these products.” Ask a question. Explore interactive evidence cards. Open the original lab report. No LabTested account or API key needed.

This is the problem with looking at what advanced/near-elite folks are doing and assuming it applies to you. Could be fitness or business. You have to understand the context that people are speaking from. Don’t just copy what someone with more followers says is working for them.
Important reminder for anyone taking info from people on social media Ask yourself “Am I the person they’re creating content for?” Many people out there that give GREAT info But it’s TERRIBLE info for you and your current situation Lastly That doesn’t make them a bad person or a liar or whatever other BS claim people make It just means the info wasn’t meant for you

Hear me out: the $20 trial of @GetTranquilitas. Works equally well as a stocking stuffer or a random gift to a friend whenever they need to chill out. drinktranquilitas.com/produc…
I’m on a crusade to make people stop gifting junk. It’s bad for the wallet, the environment, and the soul Stocking stuffers don’t have to suck! They just shouldn’t be random crap: The ideal items are either immediately consumable (candy, hot cocoa, etc) or something you need Good categories for the latter include: - Toiletries (nail clippers, makeup, makeup wipes, travel-size shampoos/sunscreen/etc) -Socks, underwear, gloves, hats, scarves -Books!!! -Candles and mugs -Office supplies (pens, pads, envelopes, stationery, postage stamps) -Crayons, markers, chalk -Pantry items (coffee, tea, local honey, fun hot sauce) -Headphones, chargers, and AirTags, if that’s your type of budget -Random household things that are actually useful (scissors, kitchen tools, fun soaps, batteries (I know it sounds weird but especially for toys!), Tide pens) -Seeds and bulbs for planting -Hobby items (golf balls and tees, guitar picks, yarn, fishing tackle, tennis or lacrosse balls) Basically, for the love of Christmas, avoid anything marketed as a “stocking stuffer”

Gave my buddy a sampler of @Half_A_Pond on Friday. Got this text from him on Sunday. You can do all your Christmas shopping with small brands that started on X. The products will blow the minds of anyone not on this platform.

This explains a lot of the neurotic health stuff you see in some of the surprisingly large corners of health/fitness X.
A lack of flexibility or adventurousness is a hallmark symptom of distress, dysfunction, and even legitimate psychological problems. When, for example, children will only eat certain foods (and will never try any others), or when people develop intensely ritualized ways of life (from which they can never deviate or else they crumble) -- such people have developed an "insecure attachment" to reality itself. They need repetition and homogeneity as a kind of comfort; and whatever comfort they derive from it is a kind of surrogate for some essential thing they are lacking, or never received to begin with. You see this in so many poorly-formed children and teenagers especially. And I often see it in myself when I am doing my worst; I always know things are improving for me when I try something new, take a risk, do something out of the ordinary, etc. It's a small observation, but important nonetheless.

I cannot believe how much spam I am getting from peptide companies I have never heard of. Where did they get my number to text me? I shop @PurePeptidesBio and @nexgenpeptides for my very limited peptide needs.

If you cook your own food, even infrequently, please consider an order from ENAK Flavors today. These seasoning blends are awesome. Start with the Gulf of America bundle if you can’t decide. I want to see a photo of my friend lighting up that cigar today. Www.enakflavors.com
I didn’t get to enjoy this fine offering from @RandRCigars two weeks ago. So I set it aside for the first $10K revenue month, seeing no path to get there this month. Woke up this morning close. I’ll be at the Farmers Market, Maggie’s going to Mt. Olive Baptist, and Meta ads are chugging along. Let’s go.
