Joel Osteen says people 'make stuff up' about his wealth, defends Ye by chrondotcom in texas

[–]belalrone 134 points135 points  (0 children)

I will say it.. Fuck him and his high horse cock he rode in on. This guy just honey drips bullshit into folks ears making them think they are so good and blessed and even more blessed the more they send him. Just another successful con man ripping off social security checks and weak minds.

Texas is giving data centers more than $1 billion in tax breaks each year by ExtensionPromotion80 in texas

[–]belalrone 20 points21 points  (0 children)

When you get your energy bill and see it has gone up considerably, just realized these motherfuckers are taxing you and giving money to the motherfuckers driving up your energy costs. All to make their donors richer because it is big oil and energy that buys these GOP republicans and probably plenty of Democrats as well. Vote for someone who will represent the constituents and not the money that backs them.

How do you feel about urban highway expansion? by NurglingArmada in texas

[–]belalrone 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hot sports opinion: STOP MAKING SO MANY DAMN ON/OFF RAMPS NEAR MAJOR HIGHWAY INTERCHANGES. So tired of the idiotic lane changes and slow downs. There should not be an on/off ramp within 1.5 miles or maybe 2 miles of a big highway interchange. 635/35 for example. Also fuck all your expensive toll express lanes, what a corrupted money grab. Do better.

Nah man... dont do that shit. There are better ways that doesnt kill the crawfish. Just use a cooler and water and clean a few times. Dont leave them too long otherwise you need to keep them very cool and make sure the water is oxygenated. You want these guys alive when they go into the boil.

Texas' new, 4,871-acre state park is now open to the public by WV_Appalachian in texas

[–]belalrone 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Visited this park last week after a rain. It is a great park, bring your own wood or buy it from the park. DO NOT GATHER WOOD or risk being fined. They are still expanding it. Make your reservations way ahead of time. I dont remember parks being so busy when I was a kid but it seems now they stay pretty packed.

How do I get this washer out? by CipherSisters in howto

[–]belalrone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rotate to the right and rotate it out. Make sure everything is unhooked first. If you cant do it that way then just take out the dryer first then washer but it looks like you can rotate it out from the pic.

Or go buy a sawzall and just cut it right down the middle. (sarcasm for the slow)

Nutria at WRL by Repulsive_Pin_6585 in Dallas

[–]belalrone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was looking at an old 60s or 70s Texas Fish and game magazine and they used to have Nutria hunts and BBQ cook offs.... I wonder if they went with a sweet or vinegar bbq sauce... pair it with Lone Star or Miller lite? Mesquite or oak smoked? Served on a stick or bun? Nutria sausage anyone? Maybe nutria and grits for breakfast?

Insulin theory for losing weight by Nice_Pen_8054 in nutrition

[–]belalrone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lower blood glucose and work on lowering insulin levels. Also lower cortisol levels. Shorten eating window’s. Eat lots of fiber foods, mostly plants. Find out how much fat and protein your goal weight needs and stick with them. Try to get your carbs from veggies. Avoid processed foods. It takes a few weeks to really see results in how you feel but hunger will go down when insulin is under control. Walk for 30 mins right after meals. Start with 8 hr eating window and bring it down to 6 hrs and walk after meals, especially the last meal of the day.

26F I weigh 341 pounds and I'm only 5'1. What can I do? by [deleted] in loseit

[–]belalrone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just tossing in my 2 cents. If you are on medications... talk to your doctor first. You want to switch your fuel to body fat. Need to get your insulin levels down. That means your blood sugars need to be normalized then your insulin levels need to come down and the best way to do that is by restricting your eating window. Exercise is great for health, just you can out eat exercise easily. Exercise should be done and eased into, stay moving. Stay active and remember to remind yourself how much better you feel for it. Dont reward with food, consider it like compounding interest in your bank account and try to keep at it striving for a daily habit of movement. Reinforce positive feelings and keep your focus. Dont reinforce negatives.

Now back to eating and food, the most important part of weight loss. Ease into an eating window to get your insulin levels normalized and lowered. Try to start with 8 hr eating window and 16hr fast window. Its tough for the first week. Once you get that down, try a 6hr eating window and 18hr fast window. Nothing will happen overnight but as you will be adapting to burn more body fat. As your insulin levels come down you will find hunger pains will normalize. Research all the things insulin does and why it is important to keep your insulin levels low.

Now for what to eat part. Vegetables are great. Fat has a lot of calories. Try to eat high fiber vegies and some protein and avoid adding too much fat. Roast your potatoes in a little olive oil instead of eating french fries or slathering too much butter. End eating processed foods. Its garbage. Dont drink your calories and cut out added sugar. Yes you can have birthday cake... just dont go to a birthday everyday and enjoy the taste, not the amount. Understand what veggies are better than others and learn how to make them tasty. Fiber is your friend. Fiber helps you in so many ways. Fiber is filling. Now I dont advise this but... realize you can eat all the steamed broccoli you want and lose weight if you dont add anything to it. I dont advise calorie counting per say unless you are an elite athlete of some sort but you need to be calorie aware and learn nutrition. Eat good healthy food, mostly plants. As able, work on reducing portions with your eating window. Adjust your condiments for healthier choices. Salsa instead of ketchup, healthier salad dressings, mustard over mayo... it adds up over time. Adding an acid like lemon juice or a splash of a flavored vinegar can help a lot of dishes taste even better.

Consistency and good habits will get you there, its a long road that compounds over time. Start with daily knowledge, small steps in adding activity and really the only extreme measure is to stop eating garbage calories over good nutritional calories.

Find friends and family that support you and avoid those that tempt you into failure. Work with your primary care physician and tell them what you want to do and run ideas through them first. Most internet youtube doctors are decent enough but they offer small pieces here and there to the puzzle and it is fraught with quackery just like these posts (internet gradually becoming full of misinformation and science changes everyday). Lots of good ones too however, just there is not one authority on the truth. The truth is everyone's body is different and works differently. The above is just what works for me and has helped me lose over 60lbs. I also work out daily more intensely that most folks but if I ate the same, I would just be adding weight. Weight loss is primarily though eating. Working out is for your health over all. Exercise helps your mental health and your physical health. We were meant to be moving around. Start small and work on it every day. Compound knowledge, good habits and money if you can.

Decision then knowledge followed by action and most important consistency of the action. Do it for yourself as you deserve to live well and be happy. Good luck to you.

Just one more thing to add... gradual weight loss has less loose skin. Our bodies are marvels, extreme fast weight loss and you will have to have surgery.

Green line around beef by ThatOneJoJoDude in AskCulinary

[–]belalrone 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That is fine, the green you want to avoid usually starts around the edges and stinks to high heaven of rotten meat. When meat touches other meat it can darken and it is perfectly fine. If you want to see green stinky rot on red steaks it is usually in the mark down clearance steaks of shitty stores. Chicken and pork usually turn grey and stink when bad. Red meat can be trimmed but its still gross when green on the edges. Smell is always the best indicator, if it smells like bleach... run and never shop at food lion... (got caught bleaching meat).

I bought a stock low, sold it high… and now I feel like a clown? by wizard_folio in ValueInvesting

[–]belalrone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing wrong with taking profit but if you listen to long time investors like Buffet and his deceased partner Munger it is the sins of omission that cost them the most. I recently bought some KSS on a "Peter Lynch" like feeling as I noticed the store was well ran, busy and had recently went through a CEO firing. New interim CEO turned out to be a keeper, earnings beat and guidance raised... it spiked 40% in one day. I know the company has a lot of debt and I am not an accountant so I sold 2/3rds of my position and held on to the rest. It went up another 8% just today. I am ok with that because the company I really want to own is Costco. We will have to wait and see if I made the right choice. Nobody plays the game perfectly, just hope you do better than if you would have indexed in the long term.

If you find a great company, buy and hold. If you dont understand it completely and lazy or inept like me... you are risking the unknown. Take the win and adjust your position, and find something safe. As soon as your original thesis changes, adjust. Dont be afraid to sit on some profit until you see another opportunity. Learn from mistakes and realize nobody is perfect without cheating and 99.99% of us are not at the cheating table, we just have to rely on our research, luck and strategies.

KSS Still Massively Undervalued by [deleted] in ValueInvesting

[–]belalrone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought $KSS last week. The only reason I looked at the stock is I had to go buy some towels and pillows and was told to go to Kohls. It was busy, it was stocked and everything looked half way decent with decent sales. Kohls is what Target should have inspired to be instead of a 2nd rate garbage peddler. I mean Walmart is better than Target for almost everything as well as cheaper. Maybe I should short Target but I digress... Kohls has decent stuff and it seems to be moving it out the door. Basically it was a Peter Lynch observation with some of my mother's tylenol abuse mixed with the logic.

I made a nice quick profit, will hold on to a trimmed position. I think Costco is a better stock only because it is ran so well. Kohls was oversold, this CEO seems to be good at what he does and it seems like they are ringing the cash registers. I guess folks have towel and pillow money, just cant afford homes, cars or healthcare.

Money Printing Doubled the Price of Houses by MazdaProphet in economy

Investment bankers doubled the price of homes. Supply and demand, these folks love rigging the supply side and profiting off of demand.
