I think getting your blood flowing is key. Stand up (step outside if you have to), do some stretches, jog in place, do some squats. Just get your heart pumping.

I've had trouble falling asleep for as long as I can remember. Mind racing, tossing and turning, checking the clock for hours. Last year I thought I'd finally 'outgrown' it or something because I was falling asleep quickly and staying asleep through the night. (I usually wake up numerous times during the night.) I was…

He must have been shot in the neck by police. I still want to know why the hell they started shooting at him in the boat in the first place.

I had eaten about 60g of carbs Wednesday without being conscious of it at all, so yesterday I thought I'd stick with it, aim a bit lower and just see what happened. Wound up eating about 32g and began to feel woozy, nauseous, and extremely lethargic later in the night. I still can't believe it happened that fast and…

The thing is, there is no real way to quantify the good that religion has done in the world. It pretty easy to quantify the bad though.

There's definitely a lot of hypocrisy in the atheist community, that's for sure.

Haha. As far as food choices it really wasn't as bad as it seems (meat, fat and lots of leafy greens). Plus, it was only going to be temporary for me because I wanted to see if it would really work better than the old 'calories in calories out' cliche.

A banana saved my life last night. Now I'll never be like Ron Swanson :(

I skimmed a good portion of this and totally missed the part saying her conversion was 1.5 months ago. lol. And she wonders why her Mother isn't taking her seriously.

I'm not sure humanity is capable of keeping conversations about religion civil.

This person has spent a lot of time searching for an organized religion which matched her personal moral beliefs perfectly. Why not just live according to your moral compass and leave it at that? It seems like the search for a perfect religion is creating more strife than peace in her life and more harm than good.

Reminds me of Jurassic Park- "Fat finds a way."

Are you talking about the pics at the top? Cause, both of them.

I have no idea what to make of this because you are totally right. But, based on Jez's last article on this, the plastic surgery phenomena in South Korea is far more extreme than anything I've seen elsewhere. A lot of the women had their bones carved, completely changing the shape of their face- and all to the same…

Ebay prices for old Candyland games are going to skyrocket.

Really good point and picture. BUT, really, Dodai's point still stands too. Regardless of how they wound up with the same look (makeup or plastic surgery) the end result is the same- there is apparently one 'ideal' beautiful face.

You know, I really have to give her props. Turning your life around and getting sober is not an easy thing to do. It takes a ton of hard work, introspection, and total dedication. The fact that she's putting herself out there and talking about her experiences honestly is awesome. A few years ago I never would have…

She clearly meant 'if you look back, starting from a few decades ago through the millenniums to the beginning of time...' Not that a few decades ago WAS the beginning of time. She's just a bad writer, as am I.

That salamander is too far to being lying on that rock... That groundhog needs to do some crunches...

Fuckin' women. Why can't they look the way we want them to look, amirite?
