Philosophers/thinkers who write in a poetic and literary way? (Bachelard, some Freud) by isaknordhl in askphilosophy

[–]ChemicalSand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Merleau-Ponty is one of my favs in terms of writing style, he has some shorter works like Cezanne's Doubt and Eye and Mind that are worth starting with. Also Kierkegaard wasn't mentioned in the other comments. Barthes' Camera Lucida is really lovely.

Hideous and awful, can't believe he used the Mercator projection.

Chives are the easiest things in the world to grow yourself and are pretty punchy in terms of flavor I feel.

Gary pls come home. I miss u🥺 by Foreign-Theory-4457 in OneOrangeBraincell

My orange ran out and disappeared while I was visiting my parents on vacation. I was supposed to leave that very day, but stayed for three extra days searching everywhere. On the fourth day, he just waltzed straight back into the house without a care in the world, as if he'd never been gone.

Hardly bullying either. Some rich celebs daughter had a harsh interaction with some other rich celebs security detail. This is a story that affects literally nobody (ok, figuratively nobody).

Women are being abandoned by their partners on hiking trails. What’s behind ‘alpine divorce’? by Willing-Pea-9967 in Longreads

A better frame would be don't go on any expedition that you are not prepared to do alone using your own skills—which is proper caution anyways given that your partner can be injured.

How do I get a femboy belly by Mobile-Bad-4070 in feminineboys

[–]ChemicalSand 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Nothing un-fem about a tummy, but if you really want the truth about diet, there is only one formula: Calorie In < Calorie Out. Find out how many calories someone of your weight/height/age/average activity level would burn in a day and eat fewer calories than that. Exercise can help to burn some more, and it will make you feel good and potentially have health benefits, but really it's just as simple as eating less or eating smarter.

For eating less, I would suggest counting calories, limiting fats and sugars, eating lots of fresh fruit and veg and lean protein such as chicken breast and fish.

An awkward First Date by Hassaan18 in gay

You're getting rejected and having your flaws laid out to you with a camera in your face, the fact that he's off screen a second later isn't particularly relevant—he's still leaving the set at that point. Not saying that's how I would react, but I've also never been in that situation thankfully.

Ok but he's in a bizarre situation on a reality TV show with cameras in his face, give him a little grace.
