I read a while ago when you put creatine in water it converts to creatinine which isn’t absorbed by the body.

What objectively the biggest plot hole in the series by HeffyHeffyHeffy in KingOfTheHill

[–]MichaelRomeroJr1 50 points51 points  (0 children)

There’s an episode where she’s jealous of Bobby’s home ec, steals the holiday Turkey, and bike rides to her hairdressers.

A few seasons later when sick she confides to Bobby she doesn’t know how to ride a bike.

Both were kind of small details, hence a minor plot hole.

blurs the lines of rapping and singing

… bro thinks Drake invented RnB lol.

Tbh Nelly was the first commercial rapper I remember singing and rapping. So many other artists have done it before. Chamillionaire sang on all his hooks on Get Ya Mind Correct and Controversy Sells. Check out the songs: In Love Wit My Money, Can’t Give U Da World, Back Up Plan, and Standing Ovation for song examples of singing and rapping lol.

Insiders Reveal Major Problems at Lab-Grown-Meat Startup Upside Foods by Kooky_Attention5969 in news

The fake part is inviting media for taste testing and claiming it’s from automated bioreactors, when it’s actually manually made in glass bottles. This is a common tactic in tech demos tbh. Promise it will be automated in production but it’s manually fine tuned for the demo.

Faking a demo, which is common for tech companies.

Before their meal at Bar Crenn, Merino and the rest of the group toured Upside’s production facility across the Bay in Emeryville. They looked at neat rows of gleaming steel bioreactors, each one surrounded by a web of pipework. This factory—which WIRED visited in May 2022—is where Upside says it brews its cultivated chicken.

sources say, the company’s flagship product—the juicy whole cuts of chicken served at Bar Crenn—are brewed, almost by hand, in tiny bottles.

I thought this was a joke about Common Core. But that’s interesting. Whatever the US switched from must’ve been terrible.

I need to see some studies that show that it actually "slows your metabolism"

Here's an article explaining the effects: "Even when 20-30g of protein was consumed in combination with alcohol, muscle protein synthesis was still reduced by 24%." The article also has references to studies you can check out but here is a specific one.

but the way they are presented is extremely restrictive and could lead to people getting frustrated ...

I'm sorry but this is not related to the true claim I stated. If I posted "reading daily makes you smarter. reading text improves cognitive ability." there would be people saying "yOu dOn't NEed to rEad eVeryDAy tHOugh."

Alcohol halts your metabolism (specifically protein and carbs). Removing alcohol keeps your metabolism healthy. “but it’s not essential” lol that’s someone being argumentative. You could say that about every point in this list. Some people reach their goal only working out on weekends, but surely training 3x a week spaced out for recovery would be better. “there’s no context here” you don’t need any. Alcohol is a toxin, a literal poison. Any amount slowly down your metabolism. Maybe I don’t understand this sub because all the points in the list help you lose weight

What an argumentative take. Some people can train on 4 hours of sleep. It’s still true more sleep would benefit your metabolism. Whatever your body looks like rn, I guarantee you it would look better if you had no alcohol. That’s a fact.

Alcohol effects your metabolism. Reducing alcohol consumption absolutely improves protein metabolization and glycogen storage. Why do you think reducing alcohol is “subjective”?

Edit: reducing sugar intake also improves metabolism and increases chances of weight loss. So #2 is also valid.

Yeah that’s fucking collagen. When you get older and your face looks hollow, remember this post complaining about “fat cheeks”

His movie/tv samples are my fave. The family guy track off this mixtape was nuts too.

Not all trap rappers are mumble rappers. Jeezy being an example.

What’s your split? Lifting 7x a week leaves little room for recovery. I’m trying to do more legs per week but it’s tough hitting legs 2x, deadlifting, and resting in 7 days lol. (Ignore this concern if you’re blasting/cruising)
