The meatless Whopper is just the beginning — get ready for vegetarian tuna, steak and eggs.

And the corporate propaganda push continues, just as I said it would. Watching people fall for this shit is sickening (as is the food).

Saw in person another reason not to be be fat and out of shape today — one I’d never considered.

There was a kid, maybe three years old, sprinting down the side of the road, out of control. His mother, who maybe weighed three hundred pounds, was “running” to catch him before he veered only the few short feet into the road. The kid was fast, but any capable adult could’ve caught him. I stopped my car altogether because I didn’t want any risk of hitting the little Usain.

I use “running” in quotes because the mother was so slow due to her weight that she took almost a full minute to reach the kid. That was a distance of only a few hundred feet. It would’ve only taken one inattentive driver and that kid moving a few feet into the a road that he would’ve been dead.

Note that this would still be true of mass transit because he could’ve just as easily sprinted away onto train tracks, or a bus route, etc.

I’d never thought of this but you can’t creditably watch your kid correctly if you’re fat, and many kids love to run away with no understanding of the risk. Again, any reasonably fit adult could’ve caught this kid within 10-20 feet.

But HAES, right? No, fuck all that noise.

All ya’ll who are like, “You can’t change your body!” And “It’s genetics! WAHHHHH!” Just wait a few months till I get a bit more muscular then do a heavy cut to get my body fat around 10%. Then I will post before and after photos of my results.

Then you can cry some more and I’ll keep on changing myself.

Great thread about the danger of DRM — how it allows history to be erased, retconned, and ultimately forgotten.

Other than through the valiant efforts of pirates, much of the history and culture of our era (even absent a calamity) will be lost, all due to the greed and shortsightedness of corporations and the utter morons who say worrying about DRM is irrelevant or a waste of time.

I think my least favorite phrase in English is “deserving poor.”

When you hear that, you know someone is trying to commit soft genocide.
