As well as big farma selling protein. I feel all this is the modern equivalent of the food pyramid from the 80s… Which was largely designed by grain producers. I straight up mistrust American science given its links to capitalism. Yes we need some protein but not the massive amount we’re being told to consume. Plus it’s the worst macronutrient for the environment and ethical consumption.

It’s amazing that people actively answer a question with insults rather than simply scrolling past.

FWIW I tend to block power users on whatever site I’m on. It feels like going to a party and having three people come and stand between you and the party. I also block a ton of meme and nonsense groups, that’s not why I come to lemmy.

Work boots - Redback - until they split at the bridge and water gets in - ~4 years.

Runners - Asics Trail Running shoes - until the foam in the sole has worn down. 1500km (8km/day dog walking).

Crocks - Until they’re fucked. Had them two years now.

Birkenstocks - Until they’re fucked. Had them six years now. Self replacing the sole was a waste of time for me. I’ll but another pair sometime but I only wear them a few months of the year.

RM Williams dress boots - Had them twenty years but rarely wear them. I got them in thrift. They’re my suit shoes.

Another rule - If you’re actually firing a gun and never have, only load one bullet. I’ve seen plenty of videos where someone fires a second accidental shot because they weren’t ready for the recoil. More of an issue with bigger caliber guns but firearm negligence can be fatal so don’t fuck about.

I thought it was shopped because it was so big.

The big dumb cars that seem to be infecting the world.

I was required to read both of those books for school. I’d say they’re already required reading, or at least were.

The movie is great too. It’s on Amazon.

Oh my god I just finished that. I’m not a big reader and it was such a fucking drag from the second half of the book. Good action in the fist few chapters and I liked the old timey sci fi lingo but a total wankfest as you say.

Liar Liar by Stephen Fry

Thanks homie, appreciated.

I had all that happen. The initial ban was from AI for inciting violence when discussing JiuJitsu technique.
