  • Exactly. Presenting arguments in good faith with people who are willing to accept objective views and valid factual information can be thrilling and present opportunity to learn about your own belief systems.

    In practice, though, it is such a rare occurrence that you are mostly just better off banging your head against a wall.




  • Of course, it’s not better. There is no way around the laws of thermodynamics. Weight loss is a measure of taking in fewer calories than you burn. That’s the formulae.

    That said, intermittent fasting can be a great way for some people to manage their caloric intake. Some people just find it easier to manage their calories by eating once or twice a day and restricting themselves at others.

    At the end of the day, though it’s not meant to be a panacea, it’s a tool to be used for those that prefer it to other options.








  • At what point can you not blame the democratic party for failing to inspire voters in the midst of an authoritarian blitz.

    It can’t be their fault thought despite spending hundreds of millions of dollars, thousands of hours of research across hundreds of focus groups each year to find out what is popular among voters only to continually accidentally do the opposite and disenfranchise the very voters who should be voting for them.

    Surely it can’t be the fact the democratic party continually accidentally gives up every political advantage and opportunity to advance by somehow acquiesce to Republicans because this time, “they’ve learned their lesson”.

    At this point the democratic party is either controlled opposition, or so completely inept and ignorant that they probably shouldn’t be in power either.
