    It is. Fat and sugar are not the same thing. Hot pockets contain about 25 grams of fat and 10 grams of sugar. Depending on the product. The label does not indicate any HFCS but the effect described above would be achieved with any sugar and most sugar substitutes.

    The majority of calories from hot pockets are from empty carbs, and that is what’s causing you to feel hungry after eating them. 72g of carbs to 43g of combined fat and protein, and only 2g of fiber.

    most members of the warrior class were little more than brutish thugs. A handful would have taken the strategy of individual combat seriously and they would have done quite well.

    The majority of the people they were fighting were lightly armored at best and they could get away with just swinging the sharp end at the unfortunate peasant conscripted to try to stop them.

    There are plenty of examples of knights and samurai alike, falling for just the most obvious trap you could imagine. Templars charging in to open gates, samurai rushing to duel a guy who insulted them, in both cases blood drunk and stupid, children of privilege and in armor by accident of birth.

    The Last Duel is a decent example of what happens when guys like that and up fighting each other.

    We tend to have a romantic view of the past, but we have a great Instagram filter between us and then. Reality is ugly and violent. Few people are artists, even fewer are talented artists. This is true whether they’re painting or drawing blood.

    I have occasionally found the Google search AI handy in pointing me in the right direction, like when I can’t remember or don’t know a particular term for something, it’s decent at giving me the term I’m actually searching for. Can’t trust it for shit as it’s intended to be used though.



  • I have a flathead in my plumbing bag because sometimes those funny shaped nuts are so inconveniently located the only thing that will get to it is a really frigging long screwdriver.

    Though if it’s leaking…? From where? Won’t shut all the way off or the drainage or around the faucet? I need more details.

    So the city I live in has a few of these and they’re some of the best burgers in town, for fairly reasonable prices.

    There’s a fucking war on here for the best burger and I’m so happy for it. We don’t fuck around with burgers.

    They’re so good and reasonably priced that the first time I saw this meme I was a little confused. Like yeah the aesthetic is kinda lame but that doesn’t change the food. Maybe the stools aren’t comfortable but like, there are regular tables. Like what’s the problem??

    Then I went to another city.

    My friends, I am so, so, sorry. You don’t deserve this. Good burgers aren’t hard, they’re really not. Just stay home, invest in a griddle. Even if it’s just a small one for your stove top, you can make better burgers at home. Make friends with a local butcher, he won’t steer you wrong. I don’t know what caused that trend but I know the only way to stop it is to stop going.

    If we’re talking about processed meat, that’s probably true. Even a small amount is probably too much.* If we’re talking about like, grilled whole cuts? Which admittedly probably isn’t typical in most diets, hard to get too much of that. And would be much more common if we were butchering our own meat. But so too would probably be sausage and cured meat so, now I’m not so sure things would change that much.

    *Guilty as charged.

    They do help. Tylenol for back pain, ibuprofen or aspirin for swelling or other pain.

    The problem is it takes about 30 to 45 minutes to really kick in. So the question always becomes “did it go away or are the drugs working?”

    Generally, yeah they’re doing something.

    It would eliminate fast food that’s for sure.

    Healthier is debatable. Meat is, relatively speaking, pretty good from a health perspective.

    Most of what we eat that’s “bad for us” is refined carbohydrates. Sugar, fried starches, breads, that kinda shit. The burger patty is far from the worst offender on the plate.

    If suddenly everyone is slaughtering their own animals, the foods they turn to to replace this calories aren’t going to be leafy greens, they’re going to be shitty carbs. Shitty carbs are already most of people’s diets.
