No, it’s not government censorship to avoid spending taxpayer dollars on books for school children containing questionable content. You can buy those books for your kids if you want and the government won’t stop you.

Read the criticisms. Seeing everything as a struggle to dismantle structures of oppression, exclusion, and domination is a mental illness.

Not intentionally and I don’t consider it ghosting if you just forgot. People get busy and either side can follow up later.

Nobody agrees on what those words mean so it’s a confusing question. Clearly he would have had a better chance of winning.

Nothing. They hate government censorship. Schools are not that and you can always access anything outside school.

Not my job and won’t happen here.

No, common misconception. The more fiber you eat the worse your digestion and especially in people already having gut issues like IBS, bloating, constipation, or diarrhea. The trend continues all the way down to zero fiber which minimizes digestion problems. I’ve tried it and it works.

It’s more complex than most people think. Higher protein tends to be good. Animal foods tend to be better than plants. Fruits tend to be better than vegetables. Fiber makes gut issues but also protects against excess sugar. Natural foods and processes tend to be better than artificial and highly processed. You can find success on a low carb or low fat diet but not a low protein diet.

It will get easier the more you practice and your bones will get stronger. If I’m uncomfortable I just change positions.

You have fallen down a rabbit hole and lost your mind to bad ideology. What you need to do is get your mind right but it’s not a quick or easy process.

Similar process to other addictions. Take it seriously if you want serious results. Find social support.

There was a time before the internet. It would be like that.

You’re not wrong. But do consider that those other people may know what works for them better than you think you do.

You have to tell me.

Of course. It’s the default option. No pressure. You decide how important it is to you.

I like wool for all situations including work outs and base layers and outer layers and just use the cheaper or older clothes for work outs. I don’t care about the brand but look for discounts.

When the ideology is so bad it just volunteers itself out of the gene pool.

Many of the things that really matter to us are fundamentally beyond human comprehension. We cannot understand ourselves, society, our place in the world, the consequences of our actions, or the laws of the universe, and we rarely agree or cooperate with each other.

Great question. I expect more people will move away from identity politics and embrace one of its many criticisms such as queer politics which is more inclusive of everyone.

Scholars have identified queer politics as the opposite of identity politics, aiming to unite diverse marginalized groups and transcend traditional categories.

You have to find your own sanity. Same for peace, purpose, and meaning in life.
