I'm with you. Any good criticism is much more valid without vulgarity and profanity. And just because Trump is vulgar and profane is not excuse for anyone else to be so. When they go low, we should go high.

See this just lacks punch. And substance. But mostly punch. Criticism is valid if it's true, not in how the fuck* one expresses it. *Yeah that ones gratuitous. So sue me.

@NoPlanetB that it supposedly does (I've seen at least one study on it), but I have a feeling that's only amongst those who aren't easily offended by crass words and less than pure thoughts. You know, fucking prudes. But we haven't actually answered his question, which is quite rude of us. So @alon it's because he's a vulgar, profanity inducing piss poor excuse for a human being that the world, as a whole, would be a better place had he never existed. For people like that vulgarity and profanity are required to express the appropriate level of contemp, frustration, and hopelessness being exposed to that motherfucking buffoon causes astute and erudite people.

Interesting little study.

I tried keto for last 3 months of last year, felt terrific, dropped weight, face less bloated, knees strong.....then Xmas came....alcohol, party food....weight back on, feel shit but still can't get motivated.....ant tips for getting back on it?

1of5 replies on Jun 26, 2019:

What works for me is preparing my own food instead of going out and just not buying the stuff that shouldn't be eaten to have around the house, and if I'm going out to eat a keto pod https://ketogeek.com/pages/energy-pods or a "fat bomb" https://www.amazon.com/Squared-8-Pack-Chocolate-Keto%C2%B2-Nuggets/dp/B07JP26QXH?th=1 before, which drops the temptation level down. Because face it, some carbs are delicious. I'm also not a hardliner - I routinely break the diet about every 2 weeks in a minor way (cookie or 2, muffin, that type of thing) just to shift out of ketosis. Started doing that about 6 months in and I shift back into ketosis very quickly. It varies my intake and doesn't keep things in the forbidden fruit category. I'm also very lucky in that my wife does keto so there's built in support. It doesn't hurt that she can't do gluten, and I can't eat nightshades, so entire food groups are eliminated automatically for us when planning meals. That's what works for me, anyways.

@Cutiebeauty without looking it up I'd guess kidnapping is taking against thier will while illegal imprisonment is holding against thier will. I could imprison you in my house if you entered willingly and I didn't allow you to leave, for instance, and only be guilty of imprisoning you. Probably should let someone who knows actually answer, though, cause I'm just pulling this out of my ass.

Those may always be a recouring craving. How long have you been doing low carb?

Took years to recover, wasn't interested in dating and wasn't really looking - my hopes for online dating were just to find someone to have lunch or dinner with once or twice a month. Then I hit the relationship lottery. I wish everyone could, seriously.

The sun does not rotate the same at its equater and poles so its magnetic field is unstable. Plasma travels along the magnetic loops and when they break the plasma is ejected as a solar flare.

@Allamanda i think it'd be a wash. For every one that wasn't messed up by religion I think you'd have one that religion currently restrains. So they'd be different individuals, but the numbers would probably be the same, or relatively close. People get messed up for a number of reasons, as you pointed out.

I wonder, how do you all view jealousy? Personally, i see it as a child-like emotion.

@DaveBA5150 that's all true, but it would still be "on file" in case there were a more recent victim who found the courage to say "me too". There's the other angle that if he knows others know about him that next time a red flag pops up it won't be ignored, and just may stop himself (big if, but you can only do what you can do) before his plans are carried out. Situation sucks. Sorry.
