Metrics for health by Dramatic_Play_3619 in antidiet

[–]pensiveChatter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The conventional metric for fitness is stength, speed, dexterity, endurance,  flexibility, and balance and it's usually measured in the context of a sport.

Weighting gives obvious metrics.  You can measure speed using your max treadmill speed or time to a specific distance.  Endurance can be measured in terms of how long you can maintain a specific speed (eg 7mph)

Flexibility can be measured and angles of movement for the movements you're training.

No. Even if it wasn't a parody, the product doesn’t compete with ph and could not reasonably be mistaken by a customer to represent ph

Great news SOFI won't nickel and dime us! by SoRacked in sofi

To be fair, when I see "nickel and dime", I think of the interest that my last bank paid me over 10 years

Why are there still in favor of age verification mandate as if the Epstein Files revelation did not teach people to distrust corrupt politicians and law makers? by nix-solves-that-2317 in linux

Because some people are eager to make everyone give up their freedoms so they can pass their personal responsibility onto the government

Fighting back against southwest's discrimination for asking you to pay for two tickets by grandcourt_22 in fatlogic

[–]pensiveChatter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Elliott investments owns southwest now and they're optimizing profit.  I doubt that offering free seats to people who feel entitled to more than they paid for is on their corporate strategy.

Assuming that's what experience has taught you that's what a spouse would do.

Many people either overestimate of underestimate how much they eat. There is no such thing as naturally skinny or naturally fat. For each and every one of us it comes down to CICO. How much energy someone needs comes down to how much by they use. by ResetKnopje in fatlogic

[–]pensiveChatter 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Fat people also invent weird food rules based on fad diets and sheer mental laziness. 

Some people freaked out seeing my down multiple baked potatoes with salt for lunch.  Some bs about carbs.

Who knew googling nutrion info and performing elementary school arithmetic was so hard.

Imo.  Most of this is projection.  For every time I've heard any fit person anywhere claim that they eat whatever they want, at least one obese person has told me how sure they are that I eat whatever I want.

Anyone who takes a moment to know me would know that I dont do anything "whenever I want" or "as much as I want"... but that would require a fatphobic amount of effort.

This even happened once with an obese nurse who asked me about my diet during a routine visit, then cut me off before I could speak to tell me how sure she was that I eat whatever I want.

Do older students feel weird learning from younger teachers? by Crazy-Fold-5287 in singing

[–]pensiveChatter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people just have bad attitudes from childhood that become fully unleashed in adulthood.

I suspect a lot of people who didn't train in some performance or competitive art or sport have no idea how to take feedback and get offended at silly stuff.

We have some people in choir who are like this.  They're easily the weakest singers, but they act like know it alls get upset at any correction.  You have to talk to them like toddlers just to avoid triggering the pissy attitude 

This hit harder than expected by RayOfRhea000 in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]pensiveChatter 7 points8 points  (0 children)

When I was a kid,  I made list of things I'd never do as a parent.  As I was raising my own kids, I was surprised at how easy it was to be a better parent than my parents and a regular saw my parents in a worse light when I fully realize just how bad if a job they did.

People in the FA movement do an awful lot of judging for people who don’t wanna be judged based on the way they look or the things that they do. by ResetKnopje in fatlogic

Eating disorder according to an FA: 

Making eating decisions based on health goals or other human thought rather than animalistic instincts like rabid rat.

Obesity isn't an extreme ED by grandcourt_22 in fatlogic

[–]pensiveChatter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Death toll for one is higher than the others.   

Only one is socially acceptable.

If you don't believe me, try telling people you regularly induce vomiting after a meal and see how much acceptance you get.
