What is more likely? That people have become lazy/stressed as shit and live off junk food or that genetics somehow spontaneously mutated in the last century that magically made everyone fat? It’s the environment, not the genes.

Until the stresses of life make you vulnerable, and you get depressed or anxious, start drinking heavily, start eating a terrible diet, and stop exercising, which ruins your health progress

As someone who graduated valedictorian but skipped more days than allowable to graduate (my parents had to fight with the district to let me graduate), there is no correlation between days attended and skill/aptitude.

I have absolute pitch for select instruments only. For string instruments (especially for the violin which I play) you can ask me what note was played in the middle of the night and I’ll tell you exactly what it is. I can even most likely t

I like how simple Firefly’s images are, like something you’d want to work with in Photoshop. Dalle-2 looks terrible. Midjourney is still my favorite.

We do know why. Hyper processed foods are stimulants the same way that drugs are and can be equally addictive. We’re getting a whole food like beets and purifying it into a single substance, sugar. That is no different than how cocaine is p

By your argument, HFCS is derived from corn, so it must also be healthy and fit for human consumption. Seed oils are heated at high levels, processed in a petroleum-based solvent such as hexane to maximize the amount of oil extracted from t
