> Sure you can get some free stuff, but at what price? What if you took that time and invested it in bettering your skill sets, etc.? This sort of sentence is extremely annoying to me. I'm good at several things, one of…
It doesn't lead to suicide. It predisposes one to suicide, but the trauma isn't insurmountable. What causally leads to suicide is the choice to take some kind of weapon and use it on yourself.
I'm not sure how much I believe that. I've dealt with reddit's administrators from a moderator side before, and they can just shadowban moderators they don't like. It makes no sense to ban a subreddit for the actions of…
Physical analogies are dated when we have accurate terms now. "There are mental trauma, that has not been caused by physical trauma, that will end up being like the gash you describe never being able to acclimatize to."…

> Do you have any reason to believe the experts know better what is good for one's health? Yes. You don't need to look at the effects of a particular diet because you can be reductionist as a proxy. For example,…
Giving up grains or sugars isn't necessary, though, especially since "giving up sugar" would entail giving up fruit, and grains, while high in carbs, are some of the most nutritious foods you can eat. In fact, most…
Satiation index exists already, in the form of Glycemic Index. It's not designed to measure satiation, but in practice that's what it does. Eating low GI foods will make you feel full; eating high GI foods will not.
