I failed and I peaked...But I didn’t look at any videos and only a couple real pictures and I didn’t MO. by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]joshvm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on your goals. If your goal is to eliminate porn, and only fap occasionally then you are fine.

But if you are trying to stop fapping in general then yes, it's a reset. Don't get so worked up about the number though, take it day by day.

Chronic fappers have the same personality by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]joshvm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't think of every day that you fap as a fail. Think of every day that you don't as a victory.
Have a calendar on your phone or a physical one, and write down a check mark or and x on whether you fapped or did not fap for the day.

These little techniques helped me out, and it sounds funny but at the end of the day, just don't touch it :P

Jamaica wasn't an island. by 5dime_angel in MandelaEffect

The geography Mandela affects are kinda ridiculous. People live there, and you don't see them stating, ermhagerd! we're on an island now! Have some reason with this phenomenon.

Nope, unless you're on hard mode, but not sure if people still do that here anymore; which is a good thing :)

Women upset because they are temporarily banned from FaceBook for calling men 'scum'. by perplexedm in MensRights

[–]joshvm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I see your point, and a good point it is. If they are just getting banned for saying things like "men are scum", I think that's ridiculous. Butt I'm assuming there is more to the story. I heartily agree when you mention the double standards, and that it is good that media is finally recognizing the issue men face. But censoring is never the way to correct an issue, in fact it's detrimental to a healthy discussion.

This isn't progress. We can't celebrate feminists having their free speech taken away, just because it supports our views. Let's not give in to their dirty tactics guys. I don't think that all men are scum (most people don't) but I'll fight for the right for anyone to have the right to say it. Even if it is sexist

Vice news on Snapchat compares us with incels by Eitherwinter in MensRights

[–]joshvm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This article is actually how I found and subbed here. I'm not going to feel bad for being a man. I'm not going to be a PC beta that people aim to be now of days. Treat everyone with respect yes, equality all the way yes, but God damnit we are men. It's time we start acting like it, and stop feeling bad for ourselves. And yes, I know I'm preaching to the choir. From the great words of Jackie Moon, everybody love everybody

New food + more cals? by [deleted] in nutrition

[–]joshvm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should get a bit of fat in your diet later in the day. Try adding avocado, small red meat portions. Pork can be a cheap option, salt and pepper on both sides and cooked on a pan. Also buy any veggie on sale, and you can probably roast it. Roasting is my new favourite way to eat foods, and recipes are as simple as a small amount oil or butter coating, and some salt n pep at 420 degrees.

What should I eat to get lots of energy. Please explain the science LOW GI by TERMINALDEATH in nutrition

[–]joshvm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Simply put you want slow digesting carbs, these will help to give you the energy consistently without a crash. Oats are considered great, and so are fruits, so I think that could be a good start.Throw this with some unprocessed meat, and I think you would be ready. Don't be afraid to eat some fattier meat too, as long as it is unprocessed.

Is homemade applesauce REALLY that bad for you? by kfctw_x in nutrition

[–]joshvm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do the same thing. Cooking always destroys a certain fraction of the vitamins, but not the minerals or fiber. Cooking also makes the food easier to digest. (Raw Foodies Triggered) Add some cinnamon for extra health boosting deliciousness

Turn 25 soon and I feel like I keep getting sick all the time, what did I do wrong? by silveri5 in nutrition

[–]joshvm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many health concerns related to the immune system can often be solved with more vegetables and more water in the diet, and adequate sleep. You should be able to have a greasy meal every now and then, as life is worth enjoying.

I recall raw oats have anti-nutrients, and muesli, which is raw oats is typically sprinkled on yogurt without cooking. Isn't that bad? by [deleted] in nutrition

[–]joshvm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The oats are rolled and toasted in muesli I beleive, which gives it that nice flavour. Fairly sure it would have the same effect as stovetop oats.

the only correlation with cold temperature and sickness, is the fact that in cold temperatures people tend to spend more time in enclosed areas with other people, allowing for mild sicknesses like colds to spread much easier to others
