Oh I like twisty ties! Because I just wrap it once around the bag, then I get to spin the bread like a nunchuck to twist it all up

Lawful neutral, or if the clip gets lost, then chaotic neutral.

My grandma had one. Growing up we just kept our bread & bagels in the microwave.

We should all use Einstein-Landauer units.

You should look for kitchen tested recipes.

Wait, what’s their true purpose?

This is a recent problem. Do we think those purported fat genes just evolved in society over the past eightyish years, and spread so widely that, per the 2017-2018 NHANES data, 73% of American adults are overweight (30.7%) or obese (42.4%)? On a population level it’s clear this cannot be genetic. There’s been a cultural shift that has caused this problem, often thought to be related to processed food, less time to cook, and for some underserved communities, food deserts.

Look at how dramatically obesity has risen since the '80s:

I think their point is that doctors don’t want their patients to become entrapped by obesity into lifelong poor health, which also traps them as sources of revenue for corporations that profit from sickness and fat: pharma, companies that sell fad diet and/or exercise plans, etc. So if your doctor tells you to lose weight, it’s probably coming from a good place, regardless of what else might be going on with your health.

(And just in anticipation of some replies I might get: yes, it’s absolutely a real and shitty thing when doctors only see the fat and assume it’s the cause of all the patient’s problems. You deserve better healthcare than that. But also recognize that while the fat might not be the cause of a given problem, it might be exacerbating that problem.)

I see beans but no jeans. Come on lemmy, do the thing.

I wanted my name to be Jerrica for a while there

I’m neither. Just an introvert with a good imagination ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Don’t compare yourself with others - comparison is the thief of joy. And those people who have graduated are probably trying to get jobs right now. Have you seen the current job market? It’s fucking insane. I don’t know that it’ll be any better in 7 months but I wouldn’t want to be looking for a job right now. Enjoy your reprieve.

Breathtaking

Man why you gotta do us like that Oatmeal

I mean, before the stupid challenges it was Jackass; before that it was America’s Funniest Home Videos. Dumb entertainment has always existed.

Animé from ages 15-18. It was the mid-to-late '90s and only the weird kids were into animé. My social life improved immensely when I grew out of that phase.

Hims adorbs 🖤

• Watching the blue jays at my bird feeder & birdbath
• My first sip of tea in the morning
• '60s music
• Dogs and cats
• Also horses - I moved to an area with a lot of horse farms and, from my second floor windows, sometimes I can see a horse or two hanging out in a paddock a couple of hills away
• Fun new makeup (one of my most recent new palettes is this:)

Man for me it was that $1.25 pool stand hot dog
