Legality isn't going to make a damn bit of difference if the call originates in Bulgaria or Burkina Faso or Ukraine. The only thing that can stop the epidemic of robocalling is technology.


This is like being hounded to death by clouds of mosquitoes. It's almost gotten to the point where I'm going to say "Fuck it; I'll do without a telephone."

Lets build a wall around the internet.
 
The weather outside is frightful.

Not cold, but windy, rainy, generally nasty.

There was a damp chill all through the house.
Not a creature was stirring, not even me, the louse.

So I stoked up a fire in the wood stove to chuck some stuff into the atmosphere.

House feels better now, but not the louse.

So fuck you all and to all a shitty night.
 
The car is sold!

Less than 12 hours on CraigsList.

The ad is deleted and the car will be picked up next week.

My weekend is saved from those annoying pests.
 


If I were the Russians or the Iranians, what I would be doing is funding all the crackpot believers of dangerous anthropogenic climate change. The Russians and the Iranians must be thrilled by the prospect that the climate nutters succeed in getting the West to voluntarily eviscerate their own industrial economies and the societies that are entirely based on the wealth created by those industrial economies.


I'd be writing cheques to Greenpeace, the Natural Resource Defense Council, the Sierra Club, the Wilderness Society, 350.org, Earth Guardians, Skoll Foundation, William & Flora Hewlett Foundation, Rockefeller Foundation, MacArthur Foundation, the Gates Foundation, the Pew Foundation, the Audubon Society, etc., etc.


The Russkies know damn well it'd be cheaper and easier if they can get the West to commit economic suicide. After all, how hard can it be to get the English majors, art history majors, sociologists, poets, political scientists, communications majors and the rest of the gullible fools who make their livings manufacturing noise to believe scary stories based on computer models of a highly complex (possibly chaotic), multi-variate, dynamic, non-linear system where the variables and coefficients are unknown?


Quite evidently, Governor Moonbeam, fucking Martha Raddatz, the dimwits of Pravda (a/k/a the N.Y. Times), the yokels of the WaPo, the artistes of NPR and the morons of the L.A. Times can be led to believe almost anything as far as climate is concerned. We're witnessing exactly that.


 
You doing intermittent fasting?

Yea......it's a little shitty adjusting to it but the science don't lie, it works.

Other than avoiding simple sugars like poison and keep your meals balanced? You can eat pretty much whatever you want and the fat will melt off.

If you want to get way cut on it, go Keto too.

Keto and 1 meal a day? That's how your abs get abs... in like 6 weeks if your moderately active.

Omg I once read the best car ad ever and I have to find it. Stand by for update because it made me consider a Toyota Carola or however that's spelled.

Edit: I found it instantly.

I wasn't even shopping for a car, a friend of mine sent me this and asked if I was selling a 1999 Toyota Carola because apparently it reminded him of me.

This guy gets it. This is how to live your life. Fuck everything and get a Toyota Carola.

You're not British and this isn't 1982. You also dump your climate bullshit in the ISO because you get laughed out of the climate threads. Happy Holidays, fuckface.

I've been reading about it for women after a friend's husband started doing it and had good results. Haven't heard about it from anyone else who has tried it so I appreciate the input. :)

Oh my god that's awful. Don't listen to him. 1 meal a day will slow your metabolism to a crawl and going into ketosis is literally what you do before you die. Like that's some proanna shit. It means that you're dying. That's what that word means. It's literally a phrase used by anorexics to promote anorexia.

I'm not joking. It pisses me off that "keto" diets are a thing. If you go to a hospital and you see "Ketosis" written on a chart, it means that you're near death. I deal with this a LOT and it really, really worries me that this is a diet because this is the kind of disordered eating that literally kills you. Ketosis is a straight up medical condition that your body goes into to conserve calories because it's starving to death. You can smell the decay on your breath because it shuts down all functions that aren't vital. You are literally rotting if you're in Ketosis. Please, for the love of god, ask a real doctor about this.

You might not be shocked, given my intense vanity, to learn that I was raised in a household that dealt with anorexia kind of a LOT. This was something that people with anorexia were treated for LONG before it was a fad diet, and that was one of the keyword caregivers were trained to look for to tell if someone had an eating disorder. It's not something to fuck around with. This was literally only a thing because hosts started cracking down on ProAnna sites and ketosis was a keyword the algorythem used, so they shortened it to "Keto" to try to normalize it.

If you want to lose weight, there's no magic diet that's ever going to do it. You just have to expend more calories than you take in. Eat less and move more. Eat healthy food that you crave including carbs that you need to fucking live. Don't micromanage, just exercise.

Having said that, seriously, don't just do diets. Talk to a doctor first. People die like that. Lots of people. I have people in my life who were affected by this.

But literally that is the history of this diet. It's anorexia disguised to get around the algorithm that checks and destroys ProAnna sites. That's all it is. If you're in ketosis you're in really, really bad danger. You are ACTIVELY dying. That's what that chemical change is, the body trying not to die even though it actively is.

It's not a diet, it's a method of starvation.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29150275

If you're diabetic, going into ketosis at all can lead to ketoacidosis, which will put you in a coma in as little as three days because it fucks up your insulin. Like it does that even if you're not diabetic bit it kills diabetics faster.

Edit: I think you have pms turned off because I tried to find a way to contact you to give you the shit I've been through and a lot of people I know have been through that wouldn't be appropriate for a public forum, but I can't find a way to pm you.

Just seriously, this is not a small thing. People die from ketosis. It should not ever be used as a "diet" because the very reason those chemical changes take place is to let you know that you have begun the process of dying. If you're a caregiver and someone you're watching displays signs of ketosis you're supposed to take them to the ER, it's that bad.

This is like when people started drinking active charcoal a little while back. That's the shit they give you at the ER to make you throw up if you've accidentally eaten poison, and then the government shut down those smoothies and shit? Ketosis is literally that same level of danger. I'm not being hyperbolic. I'm not exaggerating. Ketosis is a symptom of a problem so bad you're supposed to take the person to the ER.

The ProAnna community is trying to normalize a serious medical condition related to anorexia so people won't take them to the ER. That's why this is a thing.
