Your best country to live in?
-
There was an interesting thread on X recently and a "theory" was proposed that warm climates make people lazy and not willing to work and be motivated (think southern europeans, italians, turks, spanish..). And that the reason America has more economic power is the widespread use of AC. Colder temperature makes humans more motivated, more ambitious to get things done.
AC is not widespread in Europe. -
Very interesting story. There's plenty of raw milk and other dairy available where I live. But it's always (as far as I've seen) full fat.
Is that what you bought?
Also did any of this make you gain a lot of weight? -
@happyhanneke, it’s full-fat dairy, yes. I started out removing the fat from the milk (with a turkey baster) and once I stopped experiencing gallbladder attacks, I left the fat in. I didn’t gain any weight, but aside from the last year or so that I was on the fruitarian diet and the year and an half I refed, my caloric intake has stayed fairly consistent throughout the years.

@Jennifer thank you so much and sorry to the OP if the thread got temporarily derailed!

@Androsclerozat I think those are the last of our concerns at this point. There are so many more toxic things in our environment that we actually have control over.

My pleasure, @tubert.
@LetTheRedeemed, the top pic is crustless quiche (eggs, raw cream, honey, orange zest, onion powder, garlic powder, chives, parsley, cinnamon, nutmeg, pepper, salt and topped with slices of raw cheddar) and the bottom one is zucchini soup (peeled zucchini, coconut cream, honey, lime zest, onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, salt) topped with scrambled eggs and a mild yogurt strained until it’s as thick as quark/cream cheese.

I would be happy with any of the following countries:
• USA—specifically, the coastal towns of New Hampshire, Maine and the Carolinas
• Canada—specifically, the Atlantic provinces and British Columbia
• Iceland
• New ZealandYou like cold places I see, but aren't those places full of chemtrails?
Sorry, I’m not sure what you mean by chemtrails. Do you mean chemicals in the contrails that are formed when vapor and soot particles from burning jet fuel freeze? Since the ice crystals persist in higher humidity but dissipate in low humidity, is it a case of there being more contrails in wetter climates than drier ones, but the chemicals are still in the atmosphere even if we don’t see a trail? I’ve read that high humidity means that contrails can last for long periods and become thin layers of cirrus clouds found at such high altitudes that they’re unlikely to reach ground level.
Chemtrails are heavy metals thrown from a plane on purpose by the government to poison us. Others say that those block UV so we don't produce vitamin D. I noticed them more often on weekends. Now we enter a place of what people call it "conspiracies". You are free to believe what you want.

AC is not widespread in Europe.This was a theory for a long time that I believed and I still do
I noticed people calling for issues at work more often during winter
Work seems easier when it's cold
But I believe it's stress driven work
No motivation in hot climates is because you are happy with yourself already and don't need to follow any man-made objectives -
You’re welcome, @LetTheRedeemed.

I see. Thank you for explaining. Do those who believe those theories say what the government does to avoid poisoning themselves and their loved ones or prevent themselves and their loved ones from ending up vitamin D deficient, while attempting to harm the rest of us? Or these theorists believe those in government don’t care if they harm themselves and their loved ones in the process? They are a strand in the web of life, after all.

@Jennifer You should totally make a thread sharing all your recipes! They look and sound so good
The earth speaks to us all, Just listen
-
@Andrewㅤ seconded.
-
Thank you, @Andrew and @LetTheRedeemed.
I’d be happy to start a recipe thread. Mine are really quite basic, though. I’m cooking two separate meals three times a day for two adults who have the palates of a toddler so they have to be simple and relatively quick to make. Plus, some of the staple meals I make my dad aren’t so Peaty like brioche French toast and pepperoni pizza. They’re made with only clean ingredients and low in PUFAs, but there’s wheat so… -
@Androsclerozat Iceland is full of chemtrails. Source; I am from Iceland

@Jennifer simple is cool!
Yeah breads are generally fine, I’ve found good substitutes like sprouted sorghum and buckwheat, both gluten free. They just take trial and error finding the right moisture ratio, or finding a recipe that uses them. Also masa harina can be used in many bread recipes — Peat approved of course
-
@LetTheRedeemed, I have a bread machine and used to make bread from sprouted flour, but my dad likes the really soft, commercial breads without much of a crust so knowing that it’s soft and traditionally made with butter, I searched for a commercial brioche and found one with fairly clean ingredients. When I make him pancakes, muffins, quick breads, cookies etc., I use sprouted flour. I even found pasta made from sprouted flour. It’s just homemade bread I wasn’t able to sell him on. lol

anyplace you can go outside safely that i own a house in and dont have to work in is good
