Yes, but when this is the range (e.g. only 100g brazil nuts is around 3500% the RDA of selenium), it's not unexpected that many people would be eating foods regularly that many-folds their RDA of some nutrients. The carnivore diet is one glaring example. Add to that the fact that people disagree on various RDAs with many-fold margins (e.g. vitamin D, and in fact B vitamins) and that the real RDA can be doubled between e.g. a 100 lb person and a 200 lb person while most people simply read off the same RDA on the label, things definitely start to look muddy. But yes, definitely test yourself.

1. You know I said something very specific, "if you are already aiming at 100g"? And then I said if you are just a lousy fad-seeking nutritionally unaware vegan, your point is more valid? 2. We're definitely not talking just about chicken vs lamb. We're talking about chicken breast vs chicken thighs, drinking tea vs not drinking tea, eating high polyphenol foods vs not, the list goes on. Also, even if you eat meat, you can eat something like too much walnuts on the side (which I've done many times) and absolutely destroy your digestion of other things like minerals due to the phytic acid (and your stomach generally feels like absolute shit). If you want a diet with sub-single percentage nutritional precision, you have to research literally all the biochemicals and all the nutritional profiles of literally everything you eat.

Lmao. You always seem to make spirituality the teacher's sole responsibility, as if they are omniscient and can bend every millimeter of reality to their will, and as if you giving them your money is their sole responsibility. Raptorsin was a hard nut, he would probably need 100k in transmissions. Nahm was the most legit person on the forum.

Most accurate thing ever said about weed and drugs in general:

Apparently, drinking tea with your meal can reduce protein digestion by around 10-20% (due to polyphenols).

@UnbornTao

It can be significant, just like eating a slice of lamb can be significantly different from eating a slice of chicken (lamb tends to have about 20% less protein than chicken breast). But you won't die from that difference alone. The real problem is just if you eat too little. I personal tend to eat the same amount of different meats in overall weight and that's it; if sometimes there is more fat and less protein, I don't really feel much of a difference (unless of course you want to be a psychonaut about it). On a tangential note, this reminds me a bit of people who react to you taking a multivitamin with "be careful that you don't get too much", as if they care about that while downing a pound of oysters and getting 1000% the RDA of zinc, or they eat some extra steak one day at a barbeque and get 300% the RDA of certain B-vitamins, or they eat a few brazil nuts and get 3000% the RDA of selenium. Sometimes people get real hung up on certain numbers but are rather ignorant about what different foods do.

In that case, if you're consciously aiming for 100g, you probably won't notice much of a difference, unless you tend to accurately weigh your different meats to offset similar differences (different meats have e.g. different protein to fat ratios and around the same percentage differences). It's ironically more crucial knowledge for those that already don't track what they're eating and are more likely to eat too little protein (and which fall for fads and "genius" ideas like "one banana for breakfast").

Is this just @Breakingthewall denying another awakening or can I read and learn something new?

How much lower?

Yes, we'll have AI-enhanced erections next quarter.

Yeah. I said "essentially vascular dementia". Sub-clinical vascular dementia. Sometimes reduction of blood flow can become so severe that it leads to acute cell death. But in general, reduction of blood flow leads to reduced cell functioning (and a shorter cell life expectancy, so your cells die faster).

Unironically, I think my master's advisor wants me to work for him after my master's not for my scientific skills but for my marketing skills

So there is no such thing as vascular dementia. Great, thank you.

You say the dumbest shit sometimes I don't know how else to put it 😂

We're obviously talking about sub-clinical "diabetes" in quotation marks here. If you didn't have dementia, you would understand this 😂 (jking). And if you simply eat less (which skinny people tend to do), glucose obviously becomes less of a problem. Nevertheless, spiking your blood sugar with cola and fast food will cause inflammation, even if you're able to clear it from your blood eventually and you don't have chronic elevation and severe dysfunction of insulin as in real diabetes.

I had some severely decent earwax buildup from sleeping with earplugs for over 5 years and not getting my ears emptied out. It was pretty bad because I often had trouble hearing what people were saying if there was a lot of environmental noise. And music always sounded a bit muffled (not to mention one ear more than the other), so that alone was a good reason to get them cleaned out. I initially bought some DIY ear cleaning device from Temu which broke after 3 days — who would have thought that could happen? — and I made some decent progress in cleaning (but I don't recommend it because you can easily hurt yourself), but I eventually got them cleaned out by a doctor (my mom lol) by flushing them. It only took 10 minutes from entering the office and doctor preparing everything and removing all of it. Here is the before and after hearing test using an app on my phone: Before: After: (It seems like I registered O dB according to the chart at 2000 Hz on the after test. Maybe I hallucinated that one, or maybe not). I highly recommend it. Music is so amazing now and I can actually hear people talking to me and things outside when walking.

I can see how some of my parents decisions moved me in a certain way that could've made more life either more easy or difficult. But whichever way, I'm privileged to say that these things were also in their own way a gift.

Let go of your attachments — don't hurt yourself, just let go of yourself. Let go of not wanting to be here. Let go of not wanting to be in this body. Let go of not wanting to be in this story. Let go of not wanting to be this identity — sexless, aging, suicidal, burnt out, writing endlessly into a void. Let go of being that identity. In general, whatever thought that arises in your mind, tell yourself "whatever happens, I will be ok". Once your identity, your "oughts", die down, you will see your identity as that which existed before you were born and which will exist after death. But the odds are that once you experience this, you will want to not go all the way and instead pursue those things that you're repressing in the world. You want sex, you want connection, you want things. But it does not hurt to go there. In fact, it might be the only way, other than getting help the other ways you mentioned.

I am the Zen stick.

Am I right in saying taking 5-MeO-DMT but not letting go of your attachments is fake spirituality, or is that too radical? 😗

Let's not forget that "fake spirituality" in this case does not equal to "untrue factual claims". That's an easy but mistaken implication here. I challenge anyone to actually disprove the factual claims of "New Age BS". And if not disprove, explain exactly why they're unlikely hypotheses.

Most "New Age BS" haven't been categorically proven to be untrue. You just assume based on some preconceived (and often not well thought through) notion that it's highly unlikely. But if anything, thinking you can turn yourself into an alien live on camera (and your followers being like "oh really? Tell me more!") 😜🤫

Translation for non-French people: "When I'm hungry, I crave cardiac arrest" 🤣.

Reason and human imagination grants the ability of conceiving of an unknown separate from what is immediately known (Being), which allows you to postulate something outside of what is right here, right now, which makes Being only absolute with respect to the known. But that is not in itself to argue in favor of any particular unknown more than any other. The unknown could be anything. Being could be limited and outside of it rests a pink elephant, but you can't argue for that absolutely; it might as well be green, or yellow, or a bird. And if that is the case, why bother with it?
