I’m just tired of everyone asking for my money. Rent/mortgage: insane. Groceries: insane. Transportation: insane. Phone/internet: insane. I think people realized they can just charge whatever they want and get away with it so thats whats happened, everyone is squeezing every last penny out of everyone. If everyone starts doing that then theres not much left over and yeah, people feel like shit. They did everything right and its just not enough. Thats the world now.
I could go for personal quad copters. Imagine leaving work early on a friday and packing up the oll’ whirly bird and heading up to the cottage? that would be awesome.

Thats pretty neat “you cant kill something thats not alive”. Can viruses respond to stimuli? We consider bacteria alive but viruses are debated, wheres the line? are enzymes alive? Are prions alive? cool article.
technically viruses aren’t alive. They just use cellular machinery to replicate and thats it.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10144565/ Here’s a good start on “NNS”/non nutritional sweeteners.
Honestly its probably not a very big impact, its more of a “its possible” sort of thing.
Its a really interesting field!
Ya thats a fair point!
ya I did a lit review for my thesis a few years back, plenty of papers on microbes metabolizing these compounds, shouldn’t be hard to find.
FYI there is no such thing as truly “zero calorie”. Sure, we can’t use aspartame and those “0 calorie” sweeteners for energy BUT our gut microbes can metabolize those compounds into products that we can then use for energy. So one way or another you’re still taking in calories. Now do you gain more energy from straight sugar vs the sweeteners? I have no idea, I haven’t studied this in years. I just like to bring up that little bit of trivia whenever anyone brings up zero calorie drinks in conversation :)
well yeah. In this world that we live in money is freedom and if you don’t have it your options are severely limited. For those that don’t have it it getting it is the only thing that matters.
jobs, housing, cost of being alive… honestly what is there to be happy about? A lot of people did everything right, have good jobs and are responsible but most of these problems are completely outside their control, of course people are depressed. everything really is just shit.
