I know sugar and refined food are bad, even outside of calorie counting, and I also have a belief that eating any more than necessary is unhealthy even outside of weight: it seems to contribute to most every disease, including cancer all the way down to brain fog in myself. For myself, calorie counting does not make sense: I only eat bad when I'm 'ran thin' in daily life, like prolonged stress. I just focus on arranging my life to where I naturally eat perfectly, which is minimally and unprocessed, I only eat for nutrition and energy, not for hunger or anxiety. I actually enjoy weekly fasting, I'm not strict about it, but I generally target (2) 40 hour fasts per week, it feels cleansing to me and it alters my psychological relationship with food. The only macro I pay attention to is protein, I consciously try to eat a lot of protein(plant protein). I take a vitamin occasionally and try to eat a wide variety of food, but I have no idea of even my protein values.

...... I think porn use tends to make guys more desperate to jump into a relationship. You don't need porn to masturbate.

I've never heard anyone say it wasn't harmful, everyone knows it's bad Also don't drink soda......

@zazen He didnt mention, If they get these Marines killed, I'll put money on it you'll have suicide snipers in the u.s. taking out the administration. Everybody sees it as a bloodbath if they deploy them. This guy has been out of service for a long time, so, he may be out of the loop. He worked for George W Bush, Iraq Afghanistan (obviously studied Iran). Hard to say how accurate he would be today, a lot has changed. But if he's half right, another thing he left out, that would mean desperation by the u.s. in it's attacks, not as in nuclear, but as in making serious mistakes. The beginning of this video may explain how this happened, Israel, may have overestimated U.S. capabilities.

I think they're going to destroy Israel, if it takes 30 years. Who wouldn't If Iran stops bombing Israel for the next 10 years, I would guess it's only because they're too low on bombs. The second video was a good listen, but scary to hear it from him. These generals need to go to prison.

Leo would have to post a video on youtube explaining that he got banned from his own forum and currently working on the fix.

I have little faith in therapy helping me, I don't have any idea what my potentially-problems actually are, which makes it hard to even look for a therapist or figure out what to tell them. But I myself whole heartedly want to go to therapy when I get the time allotment available in life, what do I have to lose? It's hard for me to imagine anyone that it wouldn't be good to go to therapy.

It would ban leo

Both U.S. armadas have moved away from Iran, one reportedly headed to port in europe for repair. Iran claims to have hit them, the u.s. denies it but acknowledges a 20 hour long fire and injuries on the Ford carrier. A third carrier strike group was dispatched a week ago to head to the region, and a ship with 2,500 Marines is headed that way from Asia. https://defencesecurityasia.com/en/satellite-images-us-carrier-strike-groups-pull-back-from-iran-red-sea-oman-naval-posture-shift/ Satellite Images Show U.S. Carrier Strike Groups Pull Back From Iran ... 3 days ago — Satellite images reveal U.S. carrier strike groups USS Gerald R.

That guy just made up half of what he said.

As much damage as Republicans are doing to the West, if ICC eventually arrests these Republicans for these crimes it could actually be great for the world. But I won't hold my breath expecting a wince from Europe, it still requires a 2028 Dem to make it a priority.

And you're okay with the West not helping you? Thats the only issue.

Im laughing at him begging everyone to come save us, why is trump begging everyone to save us if we dont need help from anyone? This will cause Iran to create nukes. Diplomacy is the only way to de nuclearize the world, this is the opposite. Obama had a no nukes deal with Iran, trump withdrew from it, we were allowed over there to inspect their facilities, under Obama. The u.s. literally, literally, does not have the military capability to stop Iran. North Korea has nukes and they're closer to the u.s. The entire, ENTIRE, world is turning on the u.s. because of Republicans, the entire middle east is being bombed and STILL opposing the u.s. attacking iran.

Trump is openly threatening NATO now. So much winning 👏 👏 👏!!! This has gone way worse for u.s. than I imagined, this guy digs his own holes and keeps digging.

Ooh, that brings up something that could help, remove the moderator badges!

It's just a discussion, not a campaign.

For it to work, would require a process. You slowly reduce moderation while promoting a culture of moderation, everyone is essentially a moderator but can only moderate with words or ignoring users. It would require more people to intervene, a cultural change, one that fosters much needed social skills here. It would take a lot of work, admittedly, but it would create a better community.

Yes, no one gets raped or killed anymore @integral . Brilliant, never thought of that.

https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-730393 Does Israel still discriminate against Mizrahi Jews? Feb 4, 2023 — “There is a clear divide that is systematically maintained in all areas of life, between ultra-Orthodox Jews of Mizrahi and Ashkenazi descent. When the High Court of Justice recently overturned the ministerial appointment of haredi Shas leader Arye Deri, a crowd of hundreds of Shas supporters gathered outside his home to express their dismay over the ruling. Among the chants were claims that the High Court judges – all Jews of Ashkenazi descent – were once again discriminating against Jews of Mizrahi descent." "Benjamin Netanyahu's father was born Benzion Mileikowsky. He was a Polish-born Jewish historian who later changed his family's last name to Netanyahu after immigrating to Palestine in 1920."

We're just having a discussion, it's not like we're rioting. Jesus Monster Energy trying to have a philosohpical discussion What the moderators feel he's saying

Because you don't understand what's being discussed, you keep on going on about emptying, we're talking about how dialogue is moderated. I'm not suggesting we'll be nicer if we're unmoderated, that's your delusion, fake niceties are unnecessary and impediments. The reactions you're seeing in this thread alone highlight the lack of basic social understanding as kindergarteners say "words will never hurt me", in an "advanced" forum lol. Yes it's generally immature to name call, but what happens in public when someone calls you a name, you call the police?

The irony of Israel's current view toward Palestinian revolt, and why Rome originally removed jews from Judea "Rome's removal of Jews from Judea was primarily a response to persistent, intense rebellions (notably 70 AD and 132–136 AD), which Romans viewed as a threat to imperial security and authority. After crushing these revolts, Romans enacted mass enslavement, executions, and bans from Jerusalem—particularly after the Bar Kochba revolt. "

@Joseph Maynorwas banned for like 2 years, lol.?!?

See how easy that is, good job 🌟
