Youâd like an extra bullet this week you say? Done. This edition features an extra bullet because I couldnât resist. â
What Iâm using and loving â[How to tie the Marathon Knot](=).â Following a recent ski injury, Iâve had some neurological pain in my right foot. I notice it as shooting pain in the second toe when I go from sitting to standing. One of my doctors suggested this could be partially a result of an overtightened toe box at the front of my shoes, and he suggested trying this lacing technique. I immediately felt better. Itâs not cured, but itâs substantially improved. Sometimes itâs the simple things, eh? â
What Iâm playing â[Secret Hitler](. From the description: âSecret Hitler is a dramatic game of political intrigue and betrayal set in 1930s Germany. Players are secretly divided into two teamsâliberals and fascists. Known only to each other, the fascists coordinate to sow distrust and install their cold-blooded leader. The liberals must find and stop the Secret Hitler before itâs too late.â This is a really fun board game, but it requires a minimum of five players. Any great recommendations for games that can be played well with 3â4 players? [Please let me know @tferriss on Twitter](=). â
My first and possibly only foray into TikTok â[No children were harmed in the making of this videoâ¦](=) Iâve never been on TimTok until now. I donât expect to make it a habit, but this was fun to put together. Pro tip: being bald makes the BritBrit hair toss a lot harder on the neck. Secret Hitler may or may not have been introduced to me by someone in this video. â
What Iâm excited about â[Moonbirds](=). [Kevin Rose](=) ([@KevinRose]()), my nutty brother from another mother, is at it again. Heâs been cooking this up with an entire team for some time, and I imagine there are surprises in store. Moonbirds are âa collection of 10,000 utility-enabled PFPs [profile picture NFTs] that feature a richly diverse and unique pool of rarity-powered traits. Whatâs more, each Moonbird unlocks private club membership and additional benefits the longer you hold [or ânestâ] them.â If you missed our newest Random Show episode this week, you can [find it here](=). â
What Iâm reading and sharing â[Can the Clever Use of Old Legal Strategies Thwart Psychedelic Monopolies?](â â
Quote Iâm pondering âI slept and dreamt that life was joy. I awoke and saw that life was service. I acted and behold, service was joy.â

And, as always, please give me feedback on Twitter. Which bullet above is your favorite? What do you want more or less of? Other suggestions? Please let me know. Just [send a tweet to @tferriss](=) and put #5BulletFriday at the end so I can find it.

Have a wonderful weekend, all.

Much love to you and yours,

P.S. Deal of the Week â [Ascent Protein](=). Ever since I wrote The 4-Hour Body, starting my day with ~30 grams of protein has been an essential part of my routine. Iâve been using [Ascent](=)âs whey protein for the last several years, and I recently tried their new plant-based protein. Iâve experimented with many other plant-based proteins, and most compromise on taste or efficacy, but [Ascent Plant Protein](=) is delicious and provides 25 grams of protein with 4 grams of BCAAs to support muscle health. To ensure their product tastes great, Ascent verified it with third-party consumer research, and it won on taste and texture against the market leader. Whatâs more, itâs made from organic, real-food sources like organic pea, pumpkin, and sunflower and contains zero artificial ingredients, artificial sweeteners, or added sugars. Visit [AscentProtein.com/Tim](=) and use the code 20TFASCENT, and youâll receive 20% off of your entire purchase. This code is valid [on their website](=) and [on Amazon.com](.
