A keto diet is far from without consequences. It’s a very extreme change, that can only be done safely with a lot of care , as it implies cutting out most fruit and vegetables, for instance.
Afaik it’s not medically recommended for anything but a few very specific serious neurological disorders.
I wouldn’t go around recommending something like that.
If you want to enter a ketogenic state, intermittent fasting is a much less worrisome way to do it.
So a minimum alcohol limit, then.
Sometimes I call my colleagues Italians 🤌
(None of them are from Italy, but that pasta!)
They really didn’t do grass, huh.
I’d say it’s probably averaged from bra sizes sold by some company.
Ivy! I think mine was Talim, with the tonfas.
I don’t really understand the reason for the sand. I thought having sand where you want plants was mostly a bad thing?
Making first past the post worse is a challenge. I’m proud of Americans for raising the bar of terrible voting systems
Ah man. I have a colleague who we call a pigeon behind his back for his funny voice, low intelligence and bad attitude. This is perfect, except in his case the head-licopter collides with a window all the same.
This is so unapologetically the Nazi empire now it’s not even funny. They’re just screaming the quiet part - all the quiet parts - out loud.
Maybe a quarter of my class held their pencil various “wrong” ways and no one seemed to care beyond “huh, that’s original”. Same with eating utensils.
I don’t think it has much, if anything, to do with autism.
Yes, but since volunteering is a thing, they may think they’re in the clear. Doubt they are though.
Parties used to get a bit of funding for every vote. Conservatives didn’t like that and they repealed it under Harper.
Now all they get is, I guess, pride?
In a riding where the other candidates don’t stand a chance, I vote for the candidate who doesn’t stand a chance but whose party’s values I like best. Like the NDP or the greens.
Doesn’t do much, but in a way, it’s freeing and I can pretend I’m free to vote for anyone.
If someone has a chance to beat the worst candidate, though, I’ll vote for the most likely one. And that’s the most depressing situation of all.
I really hate this voting system. But it’d take a miracle for it to change.
Oh yeah they look pretty handy, and affordable. Only thing I’d be worried about is that they look like steel. I don’t know how well they react to water, snow and salt.
But you definitely look like you have a lot more options than we do.
The plastic basket was the best the bike shop where I bought mine could find. Most people here use satchels on the sides of the wheel, but 1. That precludes the use of a trailer for groceries, 2. I don’t see what’s so convenient about them unless you’re a camper.
There’s also just having no storage and using a backpack for everything. A popular option, but backpacks are hot. Not a fan.
The basket I ended up with is certainly big, but its aluminium construction reduces the weight, and above all, it’s handled a few falls just fine so far.
And well, on an e-bike, weight is much less critical. I paid a fortune for this bike; might as well enjoy the perks.
Oh god that would stop me from using my bike so fast.
Oh yeah it took me years to finally find an apartment where the landlord would allow me to get a storage shed. I’m glad I can finally own a bike.
Leaving the bike outside all the time was always taught to me as a no-no that’ll pretty much instantly ruin your bike, so I hadn’t considered it.
Now though I’m moving this year or next year and I’m unsure how we’ll manage with my shed. Can it be moved? Will someone buy it? 🤔 Eh, I guess I’ll see.
Over here the only one I could find that would allow me to lug around my purse and a little bit of extra cargo if needed was this one. It doesn’t even mount on my bike so the people at the bike shop had to improvise with zip ties and the like.
It took a while to find, because I couldn’t trust steel not to start getting rust stains on all my stuff, and my previous one pretty much instantly broke the very first time my bike fell, so I couldn’t trust just any kind of plastic.
I had the employees of no less than 5 bike shops try to recommend me something with little success before finally finding something. Most shops seem to carry 0~1 models of bike basket period, and not to have much more that they can order from their distributors.
I think North American shops are just confused at the idea of a bike for anything but leisure overall. Which is understandable considering how goddamn dangerous our awful car-centric cities can be.
I love my big basket, but man was it not easy to find
I thought even nuts and carrots were too much carbs to maintain a ketogenic state, and even broccoli had to be consumed with moderation, or symptoms would resume.
But to be fair my knowledge is from my complete memories of, like, Doctor Mike videos.
