Great, but that’s not what republicans mean when they say “extremist liberal.” Instead they have coopted the term “extremist” so it no longer means anything, except what they want it to, when they want it to.

That’s what extremists do, gaslight, obstruct and project. It’s all 101 level stuff.

Well, that obviously calls for deprogramming. All the commercials this month inform me you are a radical socialist trying to feed children who don’t deserve it. I think the correct answer is to throw them in labor camps instead so they can earn bread and water. Serves them right for being born poor.

That’s funny, because I think fishing is probably the best example to answer OP’s question.

No the poor advice is to go below bmr by some rando who says, “No it’s cool. Nutritionists don’t know what they are talking about.” But go for it. Do like everyone else who is in a rush and turn your diet into a roller coaster and put your health at risk.

Basal metabolic rate (BMR) is the number of calories your body needs to perform basic functions while at rest. Consuming too few calories, also known as severe caloric restriction, can cause a number of health problems, including:

-Slowed metabolism: Your body slows down your metabolism to conserve energy when you don’t consume enough calories. This can make it harder to meet your daily nutrient needs and cause fatigue.

-Weakened bones: Consuming too few calories can weaken your bones.

-Reduced fertility: Restricting calories too much can negatively affect fertility.

-Muscle loss: Going below your resting metabolic rate (RMR) for an extended period of time can cause you to lose muscle mass, which can lower the number of calories you burn each day.

-Nutrient deficiencies: Eating fewer calories than your body needs can make it harder to meet your daily nutrient needs.

-Other health problems: Other health problems associated with severe caloric restriction include anemia, menstrual disturbances, and decreased mucosal immunity.

On apple there is an app called mynetdiary. HIGHLY recommended to help answer your questions. It sounds like finances are an issue, but the paid version really helps you dial in nutrition with detailed nutrient info and meal plans. The key feature of this app for me was the predicted weight loss trend line… and then seeing my results line up perfectly. It’s almost like they knew what they were talking about.

DO NOT go below bmr…

If you are going into deficit, stave off the full effect of adaptive thermogenesis (“starvation mode”) with weights and higher levels of protein.

Why the fuck do you people think there is an obligation? A) don’t go or b) don’t eat. If you go to a business, you play by their rules.

Buncha fucking children that want everything their way, or they bitch and complain on the internet. Just don’t go and stfu about it?

its fuckin exploitative

It’s literally how they pay for the seats you’re sitting in. The money you pay for the ticket goes to the studio, not the theatre.

I don’t see this as a requirement to “tolerate intolerance”. I see this as an explanation of why we’re seeing the results we do. I’ve always had a kind of feeling that the extreme resurgence of the right is a hard reaction to the specific reforms of the left. The more reform, the more angst and reaction. It’s just nice to know this “feeling” has a name, and a proper theory.

Basically, the more social woes we fix, the more conservatives get pissed. Like they need time to adjust to their new reality or something.

So our options are: Pick and choose priorities, and slow it down, or face the right’s backlash, populism, and calls to arms, risking political turnover. This is not arguing appeasement. Just explaining their behavior, and the choices the left needs to make in how they govern. I.e., Slow and steady, or risky business.

Finally, I don’t think the right will ever stop trying to pull us towards The Handmaidens Tale, but given time to adjust to significant societal changes, their base becomes less charged and the backlash is less severe. See: Abortion rights.

It’s bacteria poop.

Why doesn’t […] get rid of it entirely?

Because you keep putting stuff inside your mouth.

With a bit more self-awareness, Bray could have avoided contact with us completely.

He was arrested for being obtuse.

The original article contains 287 words, the summary contains 288 words.

Bad bot.

Or because we are comparing rates now to those when COVID restrictions were in place?

I liked the movie. The activity itself is as boring as baseball.

Really?

Cuba has long had good relations with Russia. It was a key ally to the former Soviet Union during the Cold War that briefly hosted nuclear missiles at Moscow’s behest during the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis.

Also…

Again on October 19, 1960, almost two years after the Cuban Revolution had led to the deposition of the Batista regime, the U.S. placed an embargo on exports to Cuba except for food and medicine after Cuba nationalized the US-owned Cuban oil refineries without compensation. On February 7, 1962, the embargo was extended to include almost all exports.

I would argue the original reasoning was very valid. Helps to know the history though, I guess.
