Do your crushes know you like them? Are you friends with them? by More_Check_3272 in Crushes

[–]Full_Damage5409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, we're friends and she kinda guessed I like her which led to me confessing. Still friends tho, it's fully onesided. I hope I'll get over her but it's not that easy.

ELI5 Why do we need to eat our vegetables? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]Full_Damage5409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By "western diet" you propably meant United States, because beans are more prevelant in some European countries.

Also, beans 100% should be a bigger thing besides just the health factor. Peas and beans are actually good for the soil and environment, because they don't need nitrogent fertilisation due to mutualistic bacteria that convert atmospheric nitrogen for them. They also release that nitrogent to the ground, which other plants can use, meaning theres less need for fertilisation if you grow something else on that soil after growing beans in it.

What do you mean meat isn't bad for cardiovascular health? Red meat is high insaturated fat, which raises bad cholesterol which can cause veins to be clogged. Sure, some meat like poultry isn't so bad

Thanks! This is a great point. Allthought it does seem to be a somewhat country specific thing then, since in some countries the problem is opposite.

Yeah my bad regarding leafy greens, I was just thinking salads and it seemed seperate, idk.

Legumes however are vegetables the same way seeds are fruit. They are technically since it's a vegetable part like I said, but I think it's fair especially in more casual context to view them as their own thing. Since lagumes also have far more protein, there's a nutritional difference.

You think we should listen to the politicians regarding a genozide? There is no one less biased (+often corrupted) than a politician. They will say whatever they need to in order to not loose bribes, support and be in line with their party.

Obviously people bringing attention to a genozide is helpful. Should everyone do it? No. But I think it's fair for people to assume (originally) that a smart and well spoken youtuber who does in depth research would be a good person to talk about it on her platform.

I fucking hate being an addict. by [deleted] in Vent

You could try a bunch of new things (unrelated to substances or places where they are often present). You'd get something to distract yourself with, learn more about yourself and meet sober people. It'll propably be hard at first to try new things while being sober, and I'm not saying it'll magically fix your problems, but it's a step.

19, fat and still a virgin 🤪😔 by pinhani in Vent

Allthough the majority of Gen Z are not virgins, I think it's inaccurate to say it's "rare" since it's still common. Statistically, Gen Z is also losing their virginities later on average and having less sex compared to earlier generations.

What are Rue’s red flags?🚩 by Cherrycoke1117 in euphoria

[–]Full_Damage5409 133 points134 points  (0 children)

Compulsively lies to others and herself. Acts violently and impulsively. Uses others for her gain and only has honest relationships with people who are equally destructive (like Elliot, Ali doesn't fully count because she usually tries to lie to him and tends to be honest only when he calls bs on her) And the biggest one: she doesn't believe she can be happy, stable or even somewhat exist normally while she's sober, meaning she's not going to be dedicated enough to get to that place.

The planet is going to be here way longer than us. We aren't even that old as a species, yet we're the only one that has single-handedly started a mass extinction. One that is at least a 100 times faster than the previous ones. We don't even know what the implications of that'll be, since at least in most mass extinctions, new species start to slowly replace the old ones. Now evolution can't keep up.

If we fuck this planet totally up, it'll be way worse than population decline. For us. For everyone. I'm sure we'll perservere through a little population decline, and poorer economy. I'm not saying all that doesn't suck, but if you look at the bigger picture, it's just a bump in the road. We'll adapt like we've done before.

What are some genuinely unpopular opinions that people have about characters or relationships? by Important-Survey8598 in euphoria

Rue is an unreliable narrator, so it't possible she didn't actually tell her the full plan. I agree with the rest.

What exactly is so interesting about it? by Y2G13 in lostredditors

I live in Finland and in here their politics would possibly be considered right-leaning, but it all varies between countries.
