They're also removing immune system juice that's kinda important for the whole preventing cancer cell proliferation thing. Edit: lol at me being so wrong about the beetus . Considering my education/work background I promise it's extra shameful. Bixington has issued a correction as of 18:22 on Oct 7, 2023 |

Carbs are carbs. Flour is easily broken down into simple sugars when it reaches your intestine. A complex carbohydrate is essentially just a long chain of glucose molecules.

I shouldn't say dozens anyway, but about a dozen people. I'm sure round up plays a significant role as well, being the mutagen to the accelerating factor of stripping your blood fat twice weekly for decades.

Zodium posted:brexit was a thoroughly reactionary response to the core's growing loss of control over the periphery, which britain is uniquely vulnerable to due to its great reliance on the city of london. reaction, and the form it takes when it reaches sufficient mass to control the state, fascism, is basically a reaction to a bourgeois state's inability to serve its purpose of producing capital, and the particular form this reaction takes is always an attempt to reproduce the material conditions of the distant past, when the system was stable and serving its purpose for the reactionaries. in the original sense, this took the form of trying to return to feudal rule; in modern britain, it took the form of a blind attempt to disentangle itself from cybernetic capitalism's integrated imperialism; in america, it took the form of trump's america first. this produces deeply incoherent politics because the political world is contingent on physical relationships, and the physical relationships that existed when the system was stable and serving its purpose no longer exist, and so trying to simply will the past back into existence produces only self-destructive nonsense. but these were just canaries in the coal mine--reaction wasn't able to reach the necessary critical mass to control the state. what terrifies liberals is that they will lose control of the periphery to a point where it will, and the bourgeoisie are made to turn their efforts towards intensifying exploitation of the core to maintain capitalism, and so they paradoxically rally around imperialism, and thus reaction, in an attempt to shore up the system. it has nothing to do with people wanting to burn down the system. quite the opposite. I will add that, while by all means if you get some reactionary willing to learn, grab him, don't count on turning that group red as a major strategy. Capital has a fairly easy and proven strategy that has profitability to turn them back to its side, and that's 'plundering and kicking around X minority and giving them a cut of the spoils.' The causes are the same, but 'enemy's enemy is my friend' is a fallacy for a reason. Deradicalizing, and radicalizing in the correct direction is useful and necessary, but cannot be the basis of a strategy.

You're running your blood through plastic tubes and having to regenerate cells you would normally not be losing at such a rate. that is certainly an interesting hypothesis, albeit a concerning one since plasma donations are very very important. but most overwhelming donations from from poor people who won’t/can’t get cancer diagnosing and die quietly somewhere (because they can get paid for it)

the customer is always at fault Why furniture got so bad quote:No one expects an Ikea bookcase or West Elm sofa to last for generations, or maybe even to survive another move. But walk into a vintage furniture store and you'll find all types of old pieces that were inexpensive and mass-produced in their day, yet have still managed to achieve heirloom status.

And I mean yeah I'm fat now but I haven't always been fat, was pretty skinny for most of my life really and I still just went through chairs. Cheap ones, expensive ones, it didn't really matter. Dunno if I fidget too much or sit weird or what but it's something I've noticed my whole life. Our entryway is next to our open dining room so I often shoe up there and as a result have used our dining table chairs to don and doff shoes, not like prolonged sitting sessions and they're just solid chairs that aren't intended to fold or swivel or whatever and sure enough a year or so of using them as my temporary seating for putting my workboots on and their legs get the wobbles. Rather than just run the gamut of destroying the entire dining room set I've set up a humble folding chair there, but I'm sure soon enough it will fade into ruin.

I had a couch back leg snap off about 3 years after I got it. It was an older couch, but had been in storage for nearly its entire lifespan. It was a very light couch, so probably cheap wood. I never replaced the leg and no one notices that it's a three-legged couch unless I explicitly point it out.

mawarannahr posted:the customer is always at fault This is why you go to rummage sales at churches in wealthy suburbs to buy your furniture, or take it from your folks when they move or die. Lots of places have throw-out days too. I remember my parents scoring a solid mahogany dining room table & 8 chairs at one of those. I doubt it's buying into the rationale that it's barbiecore or social media as much as tho.
