Actually, please don’t. It’s Lemmy and we need all the users we can get

People like Kirk will see that quote and say things like, “See, not every belief is equal and not every belief should be defended, that’s how we got to this point.” The mental gymnastics is incredible

Personally, I think very few people in life are truly independent and never need help or assistance with something. As far as thriving, I know way more people that are struggling with something like their finances, health, or something else.

I think most people either get lucky early on and their lives generally go well, or they don’t get lucky early in life.

Edit: As a child, I thought life was hard but ultimately a good experience if you put in the work and did the right things. As I got older, I realized that my life is mostly bleak but with some good experiences throughout.

Actually not a bad game.

Not quite, Royal Guards typically know what they were getting into - it’s a little more involved than just joining the military and being tricked into the position.

No, no, we do don’t this here. This is bait and it is intentionally misleading. If you want rational discussions, don’t present arguments in bad faith.

Those numbers are for FOMO, one pack and I’m set for life

Too late, I studied Finance and National Economics and work in Logistics. Space and evolution are my biggest interests outside of that, though

I feel like seeing life before it had been through so many evolutionary shocks would have been neat

Fun fact, many birds can and will hiss when they feel threatened. Parrots and some larger birds come to mind

That’s why I advocate for elliptical machines if someone really wants to “run.” Running isn’t bad for you if you’re wear proper shoes, have good form / posture, and run on soft ground. But many people don’t do those and end up increasing their life expectancy but with terrible joints. Elliptical machines solve the issue by forcing your body to actually run properly but they eliminate the shocks that come with each step. And you’re right - swimming is by far the best cardio anyone can do. Plus everyone needs to learn how to swim.

Sadly I can’t do either for now, but hoping to by next Spring.

I used to run 3mi each day until I had to stop due to hip issues that I’m still trying to fix. I never thought I’d miss it this much. One of the biggest things I’ve been wanting to do for the past few years is to just run for the hell of it. You never realize how fortunate you are to do something until it’s taken from you.
