It literally doesnt matter. Whether you sit behind a desk or carry shingles. Drink liquid when you're thirsty, eat food salted to taste at meal times. Outside of extreme athletics, that is all anyone needs for healthy hydration. Evolution figured this out in the kidneys long before we were...

https://brownstone.org/articles/the-moral-cost-of-modern-transplant-medicine/ This was a great article on the insane state of the modern transplant industry. It reinforces my belief that no one should be an organ donor in the current system. What I found most impressive though was that the...

never tried the shaker trick but the key most of the time really is to shock them. My wife always like slowly cools them and it always fails spectacularly. You've gotta put in like a whole tray or two of ice and cold water, immediately after pouring off the boiling water. So they go from boiling...

You and literally anyone else who eats food. Within the first couple bites.

proper hydration requires that you drink some liquid occasionally when you're thirsty, and thats it. the entire "hydration" industry is based on misinformation. drinking soda is less gay cause at least you're openly drinking it for the taste in that case instead of a fictional "need" but...

On the other hand, 99% of the time when one car passes another, its because the driver of the passing car is a fucking idiot who shouldnt be allowed to drive they're so stupid. "If I get in front of this car it means I win!" So 99% of the time that "you just got passed by a girl" sticker is...

All this salt and not one of you has actually tried it Thats cool. Its important to do what the experts tell you, and never try anything else. I rinsed my rice for years then I engaged critical thinking, experimented, and found 100% clear evidence it makes zero difference. Keep repeating...

This is absolutley not true. You read this somewhere. Probably written by an Oriental. To be honest, I did it for many years too. But try this yourself, multiple times. I'm telling you - absolutely zero difference in appearance, taste, or texture. Maybe it affects the feng shui or something...

thats funny especially because it brings up rinsing rice: a completely useless practice that makes no detectable difference of any kind in the finished product. literally undetectable on a blind taste test

The rice discussion is hilarious because not one of you could tell them apart on a blind taste test. 1000%

No, there was no mention of hose water in the article, or anything like that And my post was only slightly longer than the average tweet And the Amish kids werent just better than "modern bubble kids"; they were better than the Hutterite kids that lived a very similar primitive lifestyle with...

Yeah but the article explains why the focused on the barn specifically. It isnt just "be around animals in some way". They were very specifically comparing Amish kids with another group that lives a similar primitive lifestyle. The only real meaningful difference is whether they're in the barn...

Why is it that literaly every photo of bacon cooked by a non-American shows limp, soggy, barely cooked bacon? I don't care much about democracy or even capitalism anymore but we really need to conquer and colonize any country that can't cook bacon properly

Wait that doesnt happen? That was like the only reason to be interested in this movie. Do they connect at all?

Really surprisingly boring given the subject matter and antman. Couldnt stay awake for the end, do they redeem it somehow?

Todays example of "we've found the problem and the easy solution but refuse to consider actually applying it" https://www.zmescience.com/science/news-science/amish-dont-develop-allergies-but-why/ but of course, Of Course, LMFAO. Yeah, a barn, that is just crazy unattainable. Guess we're...

https://www.realclearscience.com/articles/2025/07/21/do_women_really_need_more_sleep_than_men_1123816.html It seems that all sleep "research" starts with the same retarded fallacy. The idea that the amount of sleep you get is the amount of sleep you need. (When do we get to start applying that...

I don't understand this response. All I did was point out other things that this "culture" accepts, and demands we accept. It casts "culturally acceptable" in a different light, but thats not some kind of rhetorical trick. Thats just the truth of the statement hitting you.

Cmon guys, its just OnlyFans, its culturally accepted now Cmon guys, its just a little pegging, its culturally accepted now Cmon guys, its just a they/them pronoun, its culturally accepted now Cmon guys, date a girl thats not white, its culturally accepted now Imagine your decisions being...

Which is not a bad perspective. It is kind of off for a grown man to be drinking some fizzy fruit flavored drink. A lot of Americans have infantilized tastes, and its weird. I have that same reaction every time I hear an adult talk about eating chicken nuggets. Its like do you prefer the ones...

The ending just doesnt even attempt to answer the only interesting question they built up over the seasons. How did they get back to society but no one knows about all the killing and eating? NM, we won't even bother addressing that, heres some interpersonal drama bullshit instead!

The Mandela Effect describes two divergent past timelines. I'm starting to wonder if Sylas doesnt come from a third, where they had a totally different set of movies and cartoons in the 1980s.

What the fuck are you talking about? Superfriends was the major attraction on Saturday Morning Cartoons on the major networks in the early 1980s, when I was watching cartoons as a young kid. I feel like you either beamed in from a parallel dimension or youre basing all of this on like some...

FTFY (PS, Superman has been the best known superhero and the archetype for all other superheroes for our entire lifetime)

This is bizarre. You just have some weird antipathy for superman and are trying to project it on everyone else. OR youre Gen Z or something? Either way, its best not to assume the rest of the world shares you unusual views. Most of us saw those movies repeatedly as kids. Superman has been...

absolutely mind bottling and before somone gets upset about gramar nazi ing, this is exactly what happens when we don't grammar nazi. otherwise literate people start actually saying things like "tow the line"

It generally works best if its hand washed for about 5 to 10 minutes, seems like a shame they left that part out

Aside from divorces with shared kids, etc., there is just nothing good to be gained from staying in touch with exes. I'm skeptical its ever done innocently. "You used to suck my dick but I'm totally not thinking about that right now we're just chatting and being friends". uh huh. sure. 8...

Thats where GRRM got addicted to sniffing his own farts about "subverting expectations". Obviously the whole series was leading to an epic showdown between Jon Snow and the Night King, so GRRM had to do something different and subversive. It really would have fixed a lot to just go ahead and do...

Nope, thanks! Looked it up. Arent they still bolted on? Are these floating houses dragging around big chunks of concrete? Again, I'm not arguing, just trying to imagine how a house goes from attached to its foundation to floating intact down the river

I thought that was code everywhere. Note, I'm not saying ytou're wrong, just that I'm surprised. So what, the frame is just like sitting on a gravel base or something?

Wild. We keep seeing videos of whole houses floating downstream. Every time it blows my mind. How is it that the nails hold the frame together better than the big ass bolts hold it onto the foundation? I'm not saying its fake or proposing some conspiracy theory or something, just saying...

Just look on the bright side. When an adaptation is announced there is always the question, will it suck? When they release casting like that it answers the question without wasting a single second watching it. I just file it away like The Dark Tower: a book someone should have adapted to...

Absolutely. I'm not a big advocate for rules like this, but if we're already requiring companies to list all that shit on the label, the portion size needs to be realistic. Your muffin example is a good one, but really if you pick up almost any package thats obviously a single serving, it'll...

I think you make some reasonable points. Certainly exercise is healthy for a lot of reasons, and fat fucks should absolutely be encouraged to exercise. We should just be clear that its not whats causing the weight loss, which is specifically and directly caused by the amount of food shoveled...

https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/your-brain-on-food/202507/i-keep-exercising-but-im-not-losing-weight Good article does a nice job of summarizing the data we've known for a while

You wouldnt need the third if the medical establishment hadnt cut off part of your penis

I know lots of people who consider it perfectly normal to just drop by the store literally every day to pick up food for dinner or whatever. We can debate the cost benefit tradeoffs of adequate prep for real SHTF scenarios of months or years, but a hell of a lot of people are literally not...

For what its worth my kids did too, on that particular question. But I did discover that one of them had a whole row or two of the table they hadnt memorized My comment was based more on my experience with college freshmen

You don't seem to get my point. Youre acknowledging that most advances are accomplished by a small fraction of the population. But you're still trying to use those advances as "evidence" that the population isnt getting dumber. Whats 7x9?
