Lugosi? Fleck? Bartok? Enquiring minds want to know…

A quality double-sided safety razor. Saves a ton on cartridges. About as easy to use once you get used to it.
johnny_deadeyes@slrpnk.netto Public Health@mander.xyz•Ultra-processed food addiction is a public health crisisEnglish1·1 month agoOur digestion of unprocessed foods improved with the addition of some fermented foods that maybe tuned up our gut biomes. Milk kefir in particular is a diverse probiotic and is easy to make yourself at room temperature on a kitchen counter.
johnny_deadeyes@slrpnk.netto Public Health@mander.xyz•Ultra-processed food addiction is a public health crisisEnglish7·1 month agoYeah. I was compelled to go cold-turkey off processed foods a couple decades ago for dire matters of health. I know it’s not possible for everyone, but for me it was utterly necessary and vastly improved the quality of my life.
Everybody’s now talking about satiety because it’s the mechanism of these popular GLP-1 drugs. I’ve been trying to tell folks about it for 25 years. It was literally the key for me to losing ~120 lbs and keeping it off. I resolved diabetes, hypertension and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease -and vastly improved other issues that were making me miserable.
The bottom line was an awareness that what I eat now has a direct and powerful effect on how soon and how much I’ll be compelled to eat later. I began to weight my choices towards the low-caloric density, the low glycemic and high-fiber. This of course also means mostly dumping processed foods.
I realize there is privilege in being able to do this and even devote the time to untangling health puzzles, I was fortunate to have the situation and support to do it.
I guess my point is that given resources it’s at least possible to game your own satiety without being dependent on expensive drugs. No argument at all that the quality of what folks now regard as staple food is lousy and in fact calculated to cause overconsumption, illness.
Loved the idea that outer space is full of Australian Muppets.
I wish they would maybe capitalize the proper nouns in this post. On first readings, not knowing Astronomer is the name of a corporation, I thought they were just referring to a CEO that also happened to be an avid stargazer -“What a strange detail to include…”.

It possibly wouldn’t matter if it were called into question by evidence of tampering. Their devotees are indoctrinated enough to swallow almost anything -especially if it reinforced their biases against people they’ve already been trained to hate. What fallout are they afraid of in releasing a doctored list? I’d wager this will be the eventual outcome. A fake file that most know to be fake, but will mollify his base.

Leave one out for Mothman.
I can’t quite see the skin. Maybe it’s a carefully scooped out avo half? I’m just wishfully speculating here.
