Lewis and Clark were both born in Virginia. They had probably seen black bears, which are like, half the size of a grizzly bear and a tenth of the temperament.
Bears had long been extinct in most of Europe for a thousand years, so if they’d been Brits, they’d probably never have seen a bear at all, outside of a circus.
We know that certain foods, particularly animal products, especially cheaper animal products, lead to cancers, heart disease, etc.
It’s very very difficult to get obese on a well balanced healthy diet composed of mostly vegetables.
But yet again we have yet another study uselessly pointing out a correlation which is unhelpful for actually solving public health issues
What do you mean? This is very helpful. It says that if you want to reduce cancer incidence, you should work to decrease obesity. If we only did science that produced direct results that require zero political action to be effective, no science would get done.
Besides, its not as if it’s a giant mystery what causes the obesity epidemic, it’s just that undoing that would mean some massive regulation in the food industry, changes to zoning, increases in public funding and a dozen other areas, and other things that aren’t a mystery, but are very politically unpopular.
continues to encourage the passing of the blame to those in society who have the least responsibility for their situation.
The paper absolutely does not say “Don’t want cancer? Don’t be a fatty!”. The article does do, but that’s not the fault of the researchers.
Their organs aren’t any bigger, except for maybe the steatotic liver
And the skin
Eating less 👏 always costs 👏 less than 👏 eating more.
Does this make the point more clearly? I think it looks pretty dumb, but you do you.
The organic food industry has done great damage to Western society by making people think you need to buy fresh organic food to eat healthy, when canned/jarred/frozen conventional food is absolutely fine as well, for a fraction of the cost.
Yes, you will need to spend some time preparing it, unlike fastfood. But it’s MUCH cheaper, less calorie dense and contains more micronutrients.
Imagine judging your employees based on how much money they spend…
Both US petrochemical and military industrial industries are putting out record numbers. So that part of the plan worked great
Wait, are you talking about consequences? No no no, you can’t have consequences for conservatives! Those only apply to others.
Never abuse warning labels for comedic effect. This is deadly.
A few years ago, there was a news story about a guy driving with radiation warning labels on his car for fun. He got fined HARD because he wasn’t certified for that or had the permits .
Doesn’t matter if you don’t have actual radioactive material. That shit is illegal for a good reason.
Even if it got blocked, there’s a fair bit of metal in a phone which will produce Bremsstrahlung under beta radiation. Obviously that’s only going to hit your face, not the sensor.
Wait, what do figs do?
Same with musk
Might be because of translation?
The bully will keep shoving you until you shove back.
So hey United Nations, remember that charter to oppose genocide? Yeah, that’s what this is.
Do something other than write sternly worded letters. You fuckers.
NYtimes doing what they’re paid for.
It’s not Reddit. I know quite a few people who seem to think anyone will agree with them if they just explain it properly.
Because it is entirely impossible for someone to disagree with them, so if you don’t hold the same opinion, it’s because you don’t understand things well enough.
Also, green isn’t a colour found in fur. So there really isn’t a way there can be a green mammal. Only two types of melanin exist in mammals, so we’re stuck with shares of white, brown and light-brown-but-we-call-it-orange.
Birds get to cheat with crafty structural colours, but that doesn’t work for fur. So alas, no green, blue, red or iridescence in mammals.
It’s very hard to figure out a solution when you directly profit from workarounds
Example number one. I agree it’s not as tasty as fresh, but often times the canned and frozen veggies have MORE vitamins and minerals than fresh, simply because the fresh one has had more time to break down.
You can just look at the labels and see that isn’t true. Hell, you don’t even need to get up, just check out Walmart brand canned or veggies online and look at the label.
Everything is a chemical. This is a meaningless propaganda phrase from the organic food playbook. You are literally proving my point.
Uhhh yeah, if you can’t afford fresh vegetables, or its not available near you, eating frozen/jarred/canned is absolutely fine. It’s not bad for you in any way, and far superior to premade crap.
It’s nice to hear that you have the option of fresh fruits and veggies. I also take that for granted, but its important to remember many people don’t have that option. And they are just as susceptible to propaganda as you, so they don’t buy frozen or canned vegetables because it’s vaguely “bad for you” somehow in some undefined way. And they end up getting obese because they eat stuff that’s much worse.
