I use them to make sauces.

@thebodyelectric_ It lasts for a while, but it doesn't fix the underlying issue. Dark chocolate has pretty amazing properties.

Put a piece of (at least 90%) dark chocolate in your mouth and let it slowly melt, do not chew it. It will clear your tongue.

What you call "far right" is simply the common sense and standards that normal society had decades ago.

The demographic changes that have taken place are irreversible. It doesn't really matter which "anti-inmigration" party comes in now. Nobody will come to save you. Elections are fake and everything has been carefully going on according to plan and it will only continue to get worse.

@cale That sounds really fun. I wish you the best!

Lack of vitamin C.
Flossing and warm salt-water rinses are your friends.

Depends on where you live, but it's probably fruit.

@MB I have thought about it too. If I'm destined to be a slave wagey, I might as well have a job that maximizes my health.

I found the IT field and remote working to be a good middle ground. You can work around most of the typical disadvantages of having a desk job by ergomaxxing your set up with a standing desk, split ergonomic keyboard, ergonomic alternatives to chairs like yoga balls, kneeling chairs, stools, or deep squatting; standing on a grounding mat, rolling a tennis ball under your feet, applying red light therapy, wearing blue-light blocking glasses, or better yet working outdoors if the weather allows it. The biggest disadvantage is the lack of social interaction, but if you live with your family, it can be fantastic, especially if you have children.

@MB The jobs I listed fit OP's criteria. I'm sure there are a ton of jobs that I missed, that don't compromise so much in salary.

Ideal jobs:

• Farmer
• Gardener
• Park Ranger
• Outdoor photographer
• Beach lifeguard

Otherwise, any job that allows you to work remotely. A standing desk is a great quality of life improvement. You could even set up a treadmill under the desk and work while you walk... You can also work outside on your backyard or balcony when the weather is nice.

@Sepp-Dietrich That parasite report has completely blown my mind. What the fuck did I just read.
Now I wonder if the entire "eat raw eggs and raw meat" is a psyop to get those in the esoteric health sphere to be infected by parasites.

Do you follow or recommend any deworming protocols?

I started sprinting after learning that it can boost growth hormone and testosterone levels.

As someone who typically focuses on weight training, trying sprints has been a humbling experience. As a beginner, I do 5 sets of 20-second sprints with 1 minute of rest in between.

One thing I haven't quite figured out yet is how to integrate them properly into my PPL routine. Some days I sprint before entering the gym, while on other days, I do it after leaving the gym. I've noticed how sprinting first can impact my compound lifts and vice versa.

How do you guys do it?

Indian raw milk? What could possibly go wrong?

Ourense has the highest number of centenarians in the world.

That's pretty peaty.

Make sure you warm up enough, and engage the muscles with perfect form.
Here is a good shoulder warm up routine:

I've been using mouth tape to sleep for over a year now. Overall, I've had better sleep, and my mouth doesn't feel dry after waking up. I use 3M micropore tape. It feels weird in the beginning, but you adapt to it pretty quickly.

I've never been a mouth breather, but when I sleep my jaw is so relaxed that it drops as soon as I fall asleep. I'm basically the opposite to the people who grind their teeth. And the only way that I can keep my mouth shut and stop my pillows from getting wet with my drool is by using mouth tape.

So I would recommend anyone to try it out and see if their quality of sleep improves.

There are many kitchen towels being sold that are made of PLASTIC.
Many people don't realize that these soft-to-the-touch fabrics are actually made of polyester.
You can find them anywhere in physical as well as online stores.

Many people use these for things like drying dishes, cups, and cookware.
As these towels get old, they can leave tiny traces of fibers on the plates. Here is an example of a "microfiber" rag I used to dry some wet dishes.
When you put any food back on these plates, you will directly put these traces of plastic inside your body. In the photo it's obviously very noticeable, but the moment you first notice, it is already late.

Guess what these "fibers" are made of?

MMMMMmmmm!!! Yummy sustainable plastics!
How could they have the nerve to call these plastic rags "sustainable"?

I suspect this is a source of microplastics that many people haven't even considered.

If you haven't already, get 100% cotton kitchen towels.

Mine used to have a yellow tint when I was vegan, so I suppose it's a product of your diet. Do you add lots of spices on your food? It could be from turmeric.

@CO3 Which would you rather drink? Whole or skim "fresh" milk? (pasteurized at a lower temperature).

I've just recently started to drink milk again after 10 years of not doing so. Now I'm drinking whole "fresh" milk, and it feels better compared to what I used to drink, but it still doesn't feel "fully right". It doesn't have a lot of flavor, and from what I've read, milk is supposed to be delicious.

I never liked UHT milk. It always made me feel kind of nauseous and gave me a bad gut feeling (no pun intended).
