I understand taking the aisle seat if you are old and overweight. but straight up taking the aisle seats at the start when the plane just opened is just inconsiderate.

? If your seats are assigned, how are you supposed to avoid that if you get on the plane first?

There's always a stable of villains that alternative medicine quacks can blame. Carbohydrates, processed foods, msg, etc. None of these diseases are new; even Egyptian pharaohs suffered from gout in 2500 BC. Gout is a problem of protein metabolism. That's it.

You can twist over backwards and say that as long as you eat almond pancakes while doing a handstand during yoga, you won't have gout, but it's all a bunch of bullshit.

As far as dietary changes, reducing the amount of pickled and fermented foods can reduce the incidence of gout, but not by a huge amount. At the end of the day, reducing the production of uric acid through protein metabolism is the solution.




The whole naturalistic fallacy that people have gets annoying

From that other topic:
A better question might be that if skin color isn't relevant in the rings of power, why did the writers send the only black elf in the first episode to the only village in the show that isn't ethnically diverse, where the all white morgoth worshipping locals can hurl slurs at him and rumors of him dating a local white girl is enough for the kids to relentlessly bully her son over it, even though in lore the southlands is where the all-black Haradrim would have lived (Harad means "south" in LOTR languages). They took a black people, made them all white, then sent a black elf there to be the victim of racism so that audiences could understand how badly they hate elves.

Fantasy races are often used as allegory to explore racism. This might be the first time I've seen racism used as an allegory to explore the hatred of fantasy races.

I didn't even note the hostility as a skin color racism thing. I was way more focused on the human/elf racism aspect of it. Similar to the other commentary about elves and non elves that During made, regarding the differences in longevity of time that passes

How long ago were they created? I'm pretty sure it was thousands and thousands of years ago and since most of the species reproduce sexually it would allow for unique traits to be passed down in different regions/groups based off how they adapt to the environment they are in. I assume they weren't identical when they were originally created either. There is nothing saying that it is impossible for certain traits to exist.

Oh I agree. My main point was against people saying other variations shouldn't exist because it doesn't "make sense". I'm saying anything can really make sense

Can you quote me one legitimate study where men and women with comparable skill levels, seniority, and time worked are paid differently? Typically the oft-quoted pay gap uses the "average man" and "average woman" who are two completely different workers. Meaning men are more likely to work longer hours are harder, higher paying work, etc. For example, I work in the oil and gas industry in the Gulf of Mexico where your typical employee works a 14/14 schedule, would you like to take a guess how many female personnel I see on a rig?

When accounting for those things, there is still a gender pay gap, but I believe it's more like 5-10%, and what it really is, is a "pregnancy/motherhood" pay gap. Which is bad by the way and we should have better policies for mothers and families in general

But theres no question that the Republican Party today is dominated, driven and intimidated by Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans. And that is a threat to this country
...
That's why tonight, I'm asking our nation to come together, unite behind the single purpose of defending our democracy regardless of your ideology..."
