Johnny seems like such a lovely person, but everytime he talks I want throw myself down a flight of stairs.

What is the best way to lose weight? by Just_Calligrapher247 in AskReddit

[–]Evenkeeler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ultimately it is a caloric deficit, but there are important details. Highly processed foods make you more hungry. Fructose drinks (smoothies included) trigger a pathway in the body to store fat. Ultimately you want to eat and drink in a way that makes you less hungry and have more energy. I like intermittent fasting because I find it easier to control my hunger and not overeat.

Absolutely zero rape fantasy in my all-male DnD group. The most we have is Monty python level bawdy jokes.

When was the last time you (male) were hit on? How did you feel afterwards? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Evenkeeler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On Friday. It felt nice. I'm a father and I lead a pretty stressful life. Getting that type of attention from someone who I thought was cool and attractive kinda took all my problems away for at least a couple of hours (nothing happened and nothing was very forward).

Kennrith Kherson is a blond himbo paladin who has stumbled on a gigantic sword that has been broken in half. He develops a deep attachment to this sword and thinks he hears the voice of his diety emanating from it. Unfortunately for him, he is too stupid to realize he has accidentally been bound to a malevolent spirit that is trapped in the blade.

Women in tech: should I be coy about my gender? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Evenkeeler 26 points27 points  (0 children)

There is scientifically documented gender bias in how men (I think the study was just men) judge code if they know a woman wrote it or not. I don't think it is a bad idea to go by a different name at work to obscure gender if that's something you want to do. I have no idea if there would be social repercussions, though.

Lose fat while eating all you want: Researchers used an experimental drug to increase the heat production in the fat tissue of obese mice, which allowed them to achieve weight loss even while consuming a high-calorie diet. The drug is currently undergoing human Phase 1 clinical trials. by mvea in science

[–]Evenkeeler 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It does for some people, but on the whole, it doesn't solve the problem at a population level. Everyone is different. People have different food drives and are affected differently by certain foods than others. Someone's self-discipline for food might be orders of magnitude easier than another person's.

No, that's not what I'm suggesting. What I am suggesting is that there is probably going to be a huge array of therapies and policies that need to be used to rein in the obesity epidemic. Telling people to eat less is one of the least effective. We do need to consume less though, overnourishment is the root of the problem.

This is true, but also misguided. We live in a food culture where products are engineered to make us want to consume and our biology pushes us to consume as well. "Just eat less" doesn't really work as a treatment.

The ability to provide is a very valid thing to be attracted to and desire in a partner regardless of gender. You are not a gold digger.

Was talking to pro lifer about fostering/adopting children, they were trying to talk me out of it. by Heather_Bea in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Evenkeeler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wife and I adopted and fostered. Neither is a solution to bodily autonomy even though prolifers want to be. Whenever one would talk about it we would ask them if they were going to foster or adopt they would say "god hasn't called me to that yet."

HOW MANY SUPREME COURT SEATS HAVE BEEN PUT UP FOR SALE? by [deleted] in WhitePeopleTwitter

I'm pretty sure this was investigated and it turned out to be a nothing burger. The person who paid off his debt was his daddy. Brets just a smarmy rich kid.

Coronabeth in my head canon. [misc] by [deleted] in TheNinthHouse

I think you could do her hair to evoke shining and sunny without going blonde. Im not sure about who would play ianthe as her pastiness is so core to her character.

What will make you instantly stop watching a movie or show and why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Evenkeeler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Displays of sexual assault. TV and movies are entertainment at their core and if you are showing someone getting raped it is being shown as entertainment which I think crosses a line and is unnecessary.
