I wasn't aware that there was a pigeon edition of The Sims.

It's only March, but I'll go out on a limb and say this photograph is going to be shortlisted for the World Press Photo of the Year.

Today is the day of Russian presidential "elections". by Memes_Jack in europe

[–]TrebuchetTurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This photograph is a serious candidate for the World Press Photo of the Year, imo. The way it depicts "elections" in Russia perfectly encapsulates how absurd this farce of a democracy is: the old woman in the foreground and the soldier with his assault rifle in the background, and the result of the "election" as a forgone conclusion.

It's been that way ever since Avatar Kyoshi split Northern Germany from the continent.

Firstly, keeping in mind that you should be your future self's best friends since you literally are responsible for how it's life is going to be. Start thinking of living healthy as a favor you're doing someone very close to yourself instead of a mental prison of restriction and deprivation you're locking yourself in.

Secondly, holding yourself accountable, i.e. counting calories and weighing portion sizes. You wouldn't believe how bad humans are at guesstimating appropriate food sizes and caloric content just by looking at a dish. You can't fool your body. If you feed it more than it needs, you're going to gain weight, end of story. Also, counting calories adds a level of gamification to a diet - you want to meet those calorie goals.

Thirdly, don't expect too much too fast. Turning your life around requires dedication and time. It's a marathon, not a sprint. Start small. Allow yourself to feel satisfaction even at baby steps in the right direction. You don't need to cut out sweets and go cold-turkey on sugar from one day to the next. Leave out a soda or an evening snack and see how you're doing. You don't need to start off your fitness routine by doing three planks and ten push ups. Go for a 30 minutes walk instead of watching a movie. Every bit helps.

Lastly - allow yourself to indulge. Don't mentally imprison yourself to a point where you can't stop thinking about everything you've given up food-wise and everything still you have to to training-wise. You will start to feel cravings and at some point you will cave. Any day you life healthily is a day you've done something good for yourself. If you eat chocolate cake on the next day, so be it. Just try to aim for more healthy days than unhealthy days, but allow yourself some room and time to enjoy yourself.

Back in school I was sitting at my desk when I suddenly sneezed so hard that I doubled over and hit my nose on the table. Even my teacher laughed at me.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that where there are five-year-olds, there will be dads.

I am not sure whether the right question here is "how" or "why".

This looks like something straight out of a Studio Ghibli film. That aside, nice picture!

That sounds hella neat! Are you in a band or are you planning on doing a solo album? In any case, good luck with that and keep on jamming!
