When does it end?! These reference values are super important especially in medicine! This stuff is just unhinged, dangerous and stupid

Thats why I never eat at arby’s, they raise their beef without steroids or hormones. how else am I supposed to get my pump?!

I hope canada capitalizes on this too, I’ve seen a huge brain drain over the years as the states just pays so much more and has a lot more opportunity. I hope that reverses.

Rip and tear

Hurry, grab more gasoline! This fire isn’t going to put itself out!

Just letting go of all that soft power and goodwill built up over the decades eh? I honestly can’t believe he can just bulldoze the entire world order so easily with zero resistance its pretty fucked. Oh well, this is what america voted for, you guys earned it. Hopefully the rest of the world can adapt and work together in a world with a hostile US.

efficient.

Thats actually pretty brilliant. Fire a bunch of important people/piss them off and take away their income then swoop in and offer these important and knowledgable people money for information and/or access. Who wouldn’t be disgruntled after all this BS?

send em’ to Guantanamo /s

the one with the potatoes

I’ve lived in Canada my whole life and lived comfortably up until Covid hit. After the pandemic everything went completely out of whack. My grocery bill tripled, the cost of everything exploded, and we’re experiencing a housing apocalypse (crisis isn’t the correct word anymore). Canada is basically 3 corporations in a trench coat and we’re heading in all the wrong directions.

What we need is a complete housing rugpull and to kneecap grocery chains or to increase wages to keep up with corporate greed but I don’t think thats going to happen. I’ve also seen a bunch of anti-worker policies become popular in general like leaning on contract/part time work so employers don’t have to pay out benefits and pensions. I could go on and on about that lol. Anyway a lot of people I know straight up left the country and get paid way more to do less work and live in much more affordable conditions, I myself might be doing that soon. Basically its a lot of short-sighted thinking resulting in massive brain drain where I work. I think most of our problems stem from unchecked corporate greed across every industry and we have to put up with it because most major companies operate in a duopoly. I’m not an expert but thats my take. its time for a MAJOR course-correction.

I’m bracing for this right now. I’m working casual hours while I go to full time schooling but part of that schooling includes unpaid placements, I’m absolutely dreading not having income for basically half a year while i’m on the hook for tuition, bills/rent, transportation ect…

dude the raw milk thing alone is going to skyrocket preventable death and illness. Theres a reason pasteurization exists.

Hamburger helps those who hamburger help themselves.

This is just straight up dangerous

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.

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 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 :)
