But every time I lay down it feels like I'm about to shit myself again

Sounds like you need more high-quality fiber in your diet.

My recommendation for anyone that is having poo problems is muesli.

You can usually get it in the bulk goods aisle of your local store, assuming that the store has that. At my local winco, they sell it for about two dollars a pound.

You dump about a cup or two into a bowl, fill that bowl with milk. It's okay if you use a plant substitute, then top it with some plain yogurt and some berries and a little bit of sugar or honey or maple syrup.

Stick it in the fridge for a couple of hours or overnight.

And enjoy, it's just a little parfait with some granola, it's not a big deal.

But I promise you, two or three days of eating that, you will have the easiest poop of your entire life. That combo will clear out stuff that's been sitting in your colon since high school.

Eh, it was already dead inside

Real talk if I was EA with all of the bad press that comes with being EA, I would have killed the EA brand and become Bioware.

One, it's a terrible idea. Two, it's a great and terrible idea. Three, the zombie memes of EA skinning BioWare and wearing it like an Edgar suit would have been fantastic.

Question: find ANY diet in which a person can bulk BUT they cannot eat any starch, fructose, dairy proteins, or meat please

Okay, in that case I would look into the vegan meat substitutes. They're typically relatively high in calories and would be an excellent addition to getting your calorie count over what you need.

Supplement that with some Pea protein, and also make sure to take creatine, as creatine will cause you to absorb a couple of pounds of water weight.

If you are exercising and the point is to add muscle, that extra water weight will raise your NEAT just a hair, a few calories a day, but if the goal is to put on muscle, a little bit of extra expenditure is not a bad thing.

If, God forbid, that TV fails, and you find yourself being forced to buy a new one:

Use the hot spot on your phone if an online account is required for set up. Change the SSID to something that you would never use like newTV.

Set up the TV as needed on the input you want and then revert your hotspot settings.

Tin foil hat time: I'm not 100% convinced that there isn't a way for data to travel in reverse across the HDMI connection back to the computer, but I would say that risk is much smaller than the known risk of it sending data points on what you're currently watching back to some corporate server. If you are at the point where you are truly concerned that that is a possibility, you could probably put a cheap Chinese HDMI switch between them of the type that breaks HDCP.
