It was Martin Prince vs Bart Simpson.

She ran a traditional campaign on issues, Trump got them chanting “More asbestos” difference is they voted.

The Dems need to realise that this is now a popularity contest and you have to fight a cult of personality with a cult of personality.

This is probably the most showerthought showerthought I have seen in a long time.

Its all a very complex equation of quality vs additives vs effort vs cost vs time vs storability vs fridge life vs convenience.

Some stuff is just too much or too little of some of them.

I think if he loses theres a good chance that the people behind him will knock him off.

You know what works better than a hero? A martyr.

Agreed, I think the diehards have gotten much louder and the people who saw him as a catalyst for change have gotten a whole lot quieter.

I admit that I very much didnt think it was a good thing when he got elected but I did think “Maybe he will piss off a few people who need pissing off, upset some apple carts and generally upset the status quo and MAYBE be a catalyst for change some of which for the good.” Yeah… it wasnt.

Deficits are a funny thing.

How are you doing it? How long for? How big a deficit?

Previously its been hard, but I did a lot of research about macros, meals, using fat content to slow digestion etc… Once I got my diet dialed it was easy, because I figured out a few meals that were FUCKING HUGE and still low enough in calories that I got to be “full” at least once a day and hit all my nutrients.

That being said I’m on the last 2 weeks of a 750 cal deficit for 12 weeks and yeah, its starting to get real. Ive had a couple of days this week where Ive said “Fuck it” and had a second protein bar after dinner taking my deficit to only 500. After this I’ll be transitioning back to maintenance cals for 8 weeks although I have promised myself a “Mega blowout” meal of a whole costco pizza and I can eat until I dont want any more pizza in 1 sitting.

Its not so much that you feel “hungry” but you learn to love the feeling of not existing on a sugar and fat cocktail 24 hours a day. I think I’m actually going to have trouble readjusting to an extra 750 cals a day, let alone going onto bulking cals at some point.

Can I start you off with some I dont own games I buy on Steam! or perhaps some advice on why Linux is superior to literally everything.
