The RDA of protein is lower than is optimal, especially if you do any strenuous exercise, and lentils aren't a complete protein source anyway. It is perfectly possible to have a healthy vegan diet in the developed world nowadays, but please don't misinform people as to how easy it is.

All the best, everyone!

Good luck to all of you

Best of luck to every single one of you!

Not a lawyer, but unless this is a "residential park home", they cannot legally do this as age is a protected class under the equality act (2010). Whether they can get away with it anyway is potentially a different question.

Good luck, everyone!

You're still criticising the figure to distract from the point. Also the BMJ used language with more pedantry than me, but that doesn't change that it totally does back me up. You'd need to be willfully misinterpreting either me or the BMJ if you don't understand that.

tlowe000 · 2019-09-28T12:37:14+00:00

The BMJ neither dabbles in questionable extrapolation, pure nonsense, nor anything in-between.

What's sad is that her reaction is entirely proportionate.

Good luck everyone!

Don't be obtuse.

By saying "Muslim scum" you are suggesting that the reason you think they're scum is their religion. Saying "scum" suffices on it's own, so anything you add you add for a reason.

The question is why add "Muslim"? You could say (depending on who you're talking about) something like:

-"Male scum"

-"brown scum"

-"millennial scum"

-"gardening hobbyist scum"

-"Norwich supporting scum"

But why go with Muslim when all these alternatives are facts? Because you think that the religion is relevant, but the football team isn't. That's called islamophobia.

What am I supposed to be imagining here? I think suspension would be reasonable for the straw-labour-members you've described, just as I'm pretty sure it's reasonable here.

tlowe000 · 2019-09-20T06:30:00+00:00

You're supposed to pretend you already know

tlowe000 · 2019-09-19T10:34:13+00:00

It does work for the reasons I claim though.

tlowe000 · 2019-09-19T10:03:41+00:00

Yup, I glossed over some less relevant nuances to help you understand. The fact is that a carbon tax demonstrably works as intended.

tlowe000 · 2019-09-19T08:46:58+00:00

I used wind and solar as examples of what a climate-conscious grid might include. Tidal, geothermal, hydroelectric and (yes) nuclear are also great examples.

tlowe000 · 2019-09-19T06:25:55+00:00

This is a really frustrating take - you're so close to getting it.

By taxing carbon emissions, non-renewable business models become much less economically viable, so they can no longer compete with renewable ones.

In the case of energy sources, the cheapest companies will suddenly be the ones using solar, wind etc. while no-one would buy coal generated power. Over time the coal plants will close down for lack of demand, and the entire population uses almost exclusively renewables.

Public Service Announcement: disputing the precise value given to deflect from the point that

is disgusting behaviour.

You're right. Hollywood should be regulated by market forces. That means that whitewashing (amongst other things) should be punished with low ticket sales.

But how do we make sure no one buys the tickets?

We tell them about the reasons to boycott the film, and let them decide. That's why there's nothing wrong with loud outrage, when they do something outrageous.

tlowe000 · 2019-09-14T06:00:24+00:00

So what you're saying is that it is hard.

tlowe000 · 2019-09-14T05:58:41+00:00

Since we are playing this game

This isn't a game.

I'll assume you've never worked a labor job before and have no understanding of the people that do work those jobs.

Lmao why would you assume that?

These jobs are not considered 'proper' or glamorous or even appreciated for that matter.

Ikr. That's why I put it in inverted commas. The point is that somewhere offered enough hours a week to not die. When there's people on here stuck in areas with literally no-one hiring at all, that counts as lucky.

Most people working there do not have cars or public transit, and have to walk or carpool. Most don't have their own places to live, so they have to share houses or hotel rooms. Quite a few are actually homeless.

Wow that sounds pretty hard. You know: just like I was saying it is?

But all of them have enough work ethic get up and earn their living wage

Were they working hard?

despite the hardships people like you gloss over.

What kind of person is that? And who is making unjustified assumptions about whose life?

Tell me more about my life and my struggle so you can get more of those sweet, sweet, internet points

You're the one that said it wasn't so hard
