Sounds like it'll be working out for you then, people be different huh. I know the transgirl that talked about her regrets mentioned how much she misses the arousal from it. But a lot of it can be mental too, so I hope you keep the mental aspect for the bottom surgery as well. I've been told that's where it really helps with the transition after SRS and how much joy you get from sex that way. --- |

| Rainbow_Dashing 10/14/19 1:27:15 AM #123 | Just a bit of warning, my ex girlfriend got implants and she lost a lot of sensitivity for her, to the point she no longer got stimulated. It was really odd. I don't know what process she used, but maybe you should be wary about that. Don't know how much you value that aspect or if you've been told about it. I know for some trans-women they have a new found sensitivity when they begin hormones, and talks with one I know who got implants she also said she lost a lot of sensitivity and kind of regrets it. I hope it's not the same for you but it'd be a shame to lose something new gained for another aspect. I hope your feelings of yourself can trump that loss, if it does occur. --- |

| Topic | Weight loss advice from "health bros" over the years |
| Rainbow_Dashing 10/08/19 12:59:42 PM #12 | Oh yeah and if you want to cheat weight through unhealthy means there's tons of ways that are guaranteed to work. You could become bulimic, that works at the cost of your teeth and esophagus. You could use amphetamines that works too, suppress your appetite, but then you're just using drugs and suffering the consequences of that to lose weight. Who knows what happens when you stop taking them, you'll be back to being a fat fuck most likely. Finally, you could get tape worms. YOU CAN EAT ANYTHING, and then there's this worm inside of you that sucks up the calories out so you don't gain weight. WIN WIN! Oh you'll also be shitting worms and feeling stomach aches, BUT HEY YOU LOST WEIGHT WITH YOUR BEST FRIEND! Stomach parasite will forever be with you and never leave you for another, just keep giving them cakes etc and he'll take care of all your weight problems easy peasy. --- |
| Topic | Weight loss advice from "health bros" over the years |
| Rainbow_Dashing 10/08/19 12:54:12 PM #11 | It really is calories in = calories out. But people don't ACTUALLY count the calories, it's all estimates. They eat their "suggested serving size of 6 tater tots (86g)" that is 175 calories and then log it as 150 because even numbers are better. Then they go weigh themselves and wonder why they weigh more next time they weigh themselves. When you eat "six" tater tots, you aren't eating 86 g. If you weighed it out you could be eating 160g of tater tots despite having 6 heavy ones. 160 g of tater tots is 350 calories despite you eating 6 tater tots. OR You eat 6 tater tots and they weighed 40 grams you log it as 175 but later on you're feeling hungry so you go overboard or not and you suffer feeling hungry despite logging 175 calories the latter is better in the long run but makes you feel miserable and more likely to not log calories, and the first case...well you're fucking yourself over. It does work, but the common thought is "AIN'T NO ONE GOT TIME TO WEIGH EVERY SINGLE THING YOU ATE." In which case, fine go have the time to be a fat fuck. If you're honest and diligent about your diet you will lose weight by counting calories and being under. But most will want to go the way of eating those 6 tater tots or eating "1 hamburger = 600 calories" lol. Then get surprised when it doesn't work and then say calories in = calories out is a fraud. It is, you just aren't counting right. How much you intake vs how much you burn (base metabolism + exercise) is really the crux of weight management. I think the rare case of thyroid gland issues is what bypasses this, but even then I imagine exactly controlling what you put in will lead to results in the long run. --- |

| Rainbow_Dashing 10/07/19 9:12:49 PM #44 | Guys, you all missed one crucial thing. In spanish a lawyer is an avogado, I thought it was weird he was called advogato then I realized it was portugese dur. BUT BUT. There is something crucial about the naming. A lawyer in portugese is Advogado. Wait for it boys, cat in portugese is gato (same as spanish just like how it's similar for spanish for lawyer [avogado]). The cat is called Advogato, like lawyer cat. It's a PUN. These guys are hilarious. I didn't expect to see it on the badge and the article didn't mention it at all, but it's pretty funny. I honestly don't know if it translates in english, but it's similar to saying he's a Pawyer I guess? Pun on a cat's paw and lawyer? But it's a funny pun nonetheless. --- |

It recommends hormone blockers, so they won't experience puberty until they're of age that they can make that choice. "Major medical groups led by both the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Medical Association now recommend that hormone blockers, and later hormone treatment, be provided to kids diagnosed with transsexuality."

Sales data disagrees https://imgur.com/hOFtqCg And...ranking data https://imgur.com/oX0Mbgu Mind you the ranking data is primarily how the manga is placed in jump. If you're the first comic up, then you're first place in ratings. This is all done by the editor of jump. It USUALLY implies perceived value, you put what you think people will like more up front and the worse ones further in the back. But sometimes it can have no meaning at all. But it is an indicator. Sales is better. I don't know what you mean by the final arc sales started to dip, it clearly was dipping well before that. The signs were all there, sales and ranking data doing poorly. He knew it and his editors I'm sure were telling him all about it constantly. --- |

Apparently they gave him an absurdly small amount of chapters to wrap up the entire seriesThat only happens when people don't like your series and the ratings continue to fall. Happened right after Aizen was done for and he should've finished there instead of adding more crap. He knew it was going to happen but diddled around until his hand was forced. But he did have 3 chapters to finish which is true, but if you're an artist you know exactly what your ratings are and when your ratings do shit on Jump the axe is coming soon. Jump tries to help of course because they want to make money too, so they give you covers and better placement in Jump, when that doesn't happen. AXE BITCH. Either write better or change it up, but you know it's coming. Toriko got the axe too, but at least they ended it gracefully. Bleach didn't.  They explain more about the fall of bleach. --- |
| Topic | High level chess players lose a lot of weight playing in tournaments |
| Rainbow_Dashing 09/15/19 2:40:28 AM #18 | "Grandmasters in competition are subjected to a constant torrent of mental stress. That stress, in turn, causes their heart rates to increase, which, in turn, forces their bodies to produce more energy to, in turn, produce more oxygen. It is, according to Marcus Raichle, a neurologist at Washington University in St. Louis, and Philip Cryer, a metabolism expert at the school, a vicious, destructive cycle. Meanwhile, players also eat less during tournaments, simply because they don't have the time or the appetite. "The simple explanation is when they're thinking about chess, they're not thinking about food," says Ewan C. McNay, assistant professor of psychology in the behavioral neuroscience program at the University of Albany." There we go boys, case closed. Unless they're doing CO2 measurements on these guys playing these calories burned numbers are pure bullshit. It's not hcess doing it to them, it's them not eating and some stress. --- |
| Topic | Weight loss update... I've... hit a plateau? Not sure... 201 pounds lost |
| Rainbow_Dashing 09/09/19 8:42:14 PM #5 | Nice job man, are you counting calories strictly, including possibly weighing your food by mass rather than following a general size? http://www.attachmax.com/p/2018/11/11-best-photos-of-pizza-food-label-totinos-pizza-rolls-within-with-pizza-rolls-food-label.jpg Like there it says 6 pizza bites, so you think just slapping six pizza bites on a plate means 210 calories, right? Nope, if you weigh those 6 pizza bites and they end up being 170 grams, you've just had 420 calories. I know it's an exaggeration, but imagine if consistently you're having like 120 grams of pizza bites you're eating 1.5 times more than you thought and logging it, and that might be why you aren't losing weight as expected. You can also be eating 6 pizza bites and it weights 60 and in that case you are not eating as expected, and basically starving yourself for nothing. --- |

You just cut up chicken breasts, season it with onion powder, garlic powder, and random shit like oregano, or buffalo seasoning or honey seasoning etc, then throw it in a food processor. Ball up the paste you have, roll it in egg and flour and fry. GG delicious homemade nuggets. And you know it isn't chlorinated ammonia pink paste from the early 2000s. But really though McDonald's nuggets are made with actual chicken breasts. But you can make your own awesome nuggets at home without the random tendon. --- |

I'm only 3 minutes into the video, but I am wondering if he's going to go into the part about cheating on his wife and the whole open marriage crap.He goes into it briefly, but says it is really none of our business. He wanted to break up and split apart and she knew about it, they went to counseling, and he got threats from her. He didn't say this, but she effectively was the catalyst to starting all of this, while Chai and Charlie did their lies as well. I would HOPE she wasn't working with them, but I want to say it is just two bad coincidences that occurred roughly around the same time that sunk Jared. --- |
| Topic | Radio discussed if doctors responsible for opioid crisis |
| Rainbow_Dashing 08/27/19 2:57:17 PM #47 | Doctor's are stuck in a battle with people screaming for pain management and a doctor just being unable to tell how much pain they are in. Not to mention with how people go online and rate a doctor and put out bullshit reviews, it becomes significantly easier to just give what people ask for or else suffer the consequences. If you're a good doctor and you don't prescribe, you'll only lose your patients to a doctor who will and you'll just go out of business as you get bombarded with reviews saying that you don't care about your patients and you don't cure anything. The opiod crisis is the same shit as the antibiotic resistance that's developing. Timmy is sniffling, he needs both ANTI VIRAL AND ANTI BIOTICS AT THE SAME TIME. Oh Timmy scraped his knee he needs morphine! Don't give him morphine? I'll go tell all the parents how shit you are and review slam you online etc. It's a losing battle. A doctor really can't tell how much pain you really are in either. I mean obviously if you say you're a 10 and you're pretending to scream you'll probably get it, but if you say you're a 10 and you're wincing a bit, you'll probably get it, and if you're a 10 and making no face? Guess what? You might still get it because you could just be really tolerant of pain, and some people are. Pain is so...subjective. The worst pain for someone in the world could be a scrape if they've never fallen or have gotten hurt, but what are you to say that's not the worst pain? All that matters is the review that the patient writes about you in their survey while they're at the hospital. But then people go around and say doctors are prescribing too much opiods. Lol you caused it with how uneducated you are and thinking how magic pills solve everything. Overweight? I need pills to make me lose weight. A doctor is supposed to always solve any problem immediately is what everyone believes. Nothing takes time to heal, it has to always be NOW. It's absurd. I really recommend people have honest discussions with doctors about what they're taking and why, and if there are always alternatives. All too often for some people, they'd rather take blood pressure medications than lose weight because it's just easier. But then they go around and complain how they have to ALWAYS take these stupid blood pressure pills. People just don't understand...you're alive at this point because you refuse to fix it on your own and the medications let you do that. Same for people with diabetes, amputated legs because they don't take insulin or manage it well. This belief that one medication will solve everything just once and then it is done does not exist. Either fix it while you're resolving it with medication, or deal with the consequences of your actions and take the medications daily. TL;DR: Patient Compliance, Patient Reviews, Administrative Surveys caused all of this. Oh yeah and big pharma, but ehh it's really reviews and how people will seek immediate satisfaction short term than resolving and working it out for the long term. --- |
| Topic | Whats wrong with only eating fast food and processed food? |
| Rainbow_Dashing 08/26/19 9:14:25 PM #65 | I've seen chicken alfredo cooking packages for family at the supermarket for 12 bucks. Fuck that shit, I went and got some nice breaded chicken cutlets 8 for 4 bucks, then some pasta for 2 bucks, and a jar of alfredo sauce for 3, and that was 9 dollars. I made enough chicken alfredo for 2-3 families. Granted it was easier to just make the alfredo myself (and tastier), sometimes you just gotta cheat because the meal prep packages are usually taking advantage of people who don't know what to do. Which is fine, but you can make chicken alfredo much easier and tastier your own way, I'm sure the package had shitty chicken pieces and shitty watery alfredo. But hey it might teach you the process to go out and make your own. --- |

| Rainbow_Dashing 08/23/19 9:57:43 PM #29 | thronedfire2 posted... how can someone be HIV+ if the strain isn't detectableYou can still have the virus in you, but thanks to medication, the virus isn't multiplying so crazily to the point that you can infect others. I guess the best comparison is...chicken pox? You can have it, be infectious for a period of time, your body fights back, and then it goes dormant in your nerves to then repop up as shingles. I imagine it's the same case for HIV, you still have it in your white blood cells, they're just not exploding into more viruses like before and infecting your sexual fluids. It's just dormant. As for how they detect it, they use a polymerase chain reaction to determine how many strands of the virus exists, if you can't pcr anything then the load is undetectable. The other way they determine how advanced your HIV is to go to AIDS is how many T-Cells you have. As you know it attacks T-Cells and hijacks the machinery to make more viruses and eventually explodes out of the T-cells killing it. So if you don't have very many T-cells...well you're really kind of fucked and full of virus, and your immune system is fucked too giving you AIDS, of course you still have HIV too in that case, but it has advanced to AIDS at that point. --- |

| Rainbow_Dashing 08/23/19 1:49:36 PM #9 | MC_BatCommander posted... Imo if you're just gonna be reading books you should get a dedicated eReader. The Kindle paperwhite is really goodAgreed if all you're going to do is read with it, the paperwhite is amazing, and you can go out and read it in the sun and TURN DOWN THE BRIGHTNESS, because it isn't an led screen. I don't know about the fire tablets but I imagine they're not e-ink like the kindle and do too kindly in the sun. Weight is probably less too, but since I've gotten a paperwhite I've been reading a lot more since I'm not annoyed by pages flopping in the wind, or the book snapping shut when I stand it up, or just being limited to carrying one book. Or twiddling around with the pages with my thumb in the middle because I want to read upside down. Don't have to get those stupid clip on lights to read at night. The side lighting on the kindle is pretty gentle at night too so it won't keep you up all night reading. Get one of those nice cases that can self prop themselves and protect the screen and you can read it sideways or vertically at different angles nicely. Speaking as a lying in bed reader this is a god send. --- |

I wouldn't order it again nor would I pick it over a normal burger because normal burgers are cheaper, and taste better. HOWEVER, what I will always buy is those bbq chickenless patties from aldis, so freaking good, if they were just a bit cheaper I'd be buying those over actual chicken. Tastes great, have a horrible after taste when you burp though, but they taste so good I don't mind it. That is something I would support if it were cheaper. --- |
