She was 19. I don’t really care about their fight, but if you’re going to hold it up as some piece of evidence, you should get the facts right. It takes under a minute on Google.

It’s so interesting and telling what contributed to you feeling good about eating foods that are healthy and what made you feel like crap. The way that so many talk about weight and how to “manage” it has nothing to do with tackling the underlying issues that affect how we eat. Like, having the time and access to…

Having empathy and being nice are not the same thing. Also, if you want to waste time and dig through that whole story, it was consistently Moritz who initiated criticism of the Kardashians. I think celebrities fighting over Twitter is peak idiocy, not about to pick a side.

Of all of the members of that family on that show, Khloe was the only one to demonstrate things like insight and empathy. She also struggled the most with mental health growing up (she left traditional high school due to social/emotional issues). I think the sadness and self-criticism she mentions in the post is real,…

I think it has less to do with education a more to do with control in an out of control world. The people I know who are on scientifically unsound restrictive diets all have graduate degrees. Similarly, the over-eaters are equally educated, just looking for comfort in lives that are unstable. They crave control and…

It’s completely back-asswards from any kind of notion of health.

Yes! I’m mostly vegetarian now, but just look and that and think, “Whatever.” I will never identify as a specific kind of eater because it ultimately leads down a road of obsession over restriction.

Privacy doesn’t exist anymore. Every famous person is one small hack away from leaking tons of information about their lives. Maybe they could be a little proactive and like, try to organize against tech companies constantly mining and hoarding personal data in addition surveillance...oh wait, those are the companies…

It’s possible that one could argue that the BMI is useful as a metric for research, but all the BMI does is combine height and weight and give that ratio an arbitrary value. It was developed by insurance, not healthcare, and it only used White Europeans to develop the scale, which should tell you everything, i.e., it…

No lie. My high school boyfriend had political aspirations. We started dating when I was 17 and he was 18. He wouldn’t sleep with me until I turned 18. I remember thinking, My hormone-filled boyfriend is turning down sex for three months - politicians will do any weird thing for their careers.

The specific books also aren’t “cancelled” (I’ve lost track of what this even means).

CrossFit is a high stress exercise, so people who have stressful lives shouldn’t do it everyday/most days. Unless they want a constant cortisol stream that throws the entire hormonal balance out of whack (causing decreased energy, unhealthy eating patterns, impaired sleep, and a host of other annoyances). For people…

It’s also possible that exercising the wrong way or too much can cause a stress response in your body that reduces the immune system’s ability to fight off infection. Pre-pandemic exercising was kind of like 75% of my personality and I was fit as f*ck but also always somewhere in a 2 week window of getting a cold. I…

It does however, look like she is f*cking an invisible giant. Which is cool?

Never testing positive for COVID doesn’t mean you got it but kicked it’s ass (and therefore can brag about your “healthy lifestyle”), it just means you never got exposure or didn’t get properly tested after exposure (my moneys on the latter in her case).

CrossFit sucks so hard because they tried to turn basic training into a sport.

Honestly, the NYT has really gone downhill in its effort to create non-print media. The Daily podcast should be shut down. They ran an entire long-form story even after they knew that their source was a fraud. This prompted a lot of public radio stations to stop airing it because it didn’t meet their journalistic…

I think it’s fair to say that anytime a person isn’t involved with a documentary about their life, we should believe them when they say they’re not into it. Regardless of her legal situations, I don’t think she wanted to watch a bunch of people who need a hobby to make a string of assumptions about every aspect of her…

The only valuable parts of the documentary were the attorney interviews that shed more light into how conservatorships work and the evolution of her conservatorship. Everything else was horror porn and speculation. One record producer made an entire set of assumptions about Jamie Spears based on one thing he said…

Your experiences are just that. Yours. They aren’t a template for how everybody is.
