“press X to doubt”
not entirely sure why either, could be bots or I tried to post in gaming communities and maybe it’s not thought to be a (video) game so then those posters followed over here
anyone who does any actual housework
I think you understand, maybe others have not had the same experience, and I should have perhaps asked people if they have done or do housework and have “felt the burn” from it or not
artificial exercise equipment at home
This was also what I was reasoning lately, that I would try to “exercise” and do “chores” and it was kind of overwhelming, so maybe I could just skip the “exercise” and get more chores done, which is a win win on saving time not “exercising” and getting exercise from the physical chores or work. I’ve sometimes felt like gyms are a “scam”, in that there’s probably some kind of practical manual labor “work” that could be done as “exercise” instead that produces something.
housework burns a lot of calories
I guess I should have added more clarity. There may be a few reasons why people don’t recognize housework as “exercise”.
Firstly, the word “housework” is a bit unclear. Maybe I consider more broadly things to be “housework” while some people are envisioning something simpler like baking which may seem to be pretty inactive if you’re just moving some light ingredients around.
Another issue is everyone’s living space may be different; for example, people with stairs might burn more calories going up and down them versus people on a flat level or with elevators.
Maybe some people move slowly, where they might be able to move faster, or lift less weight when they might be able to load themselves with more for a greater workout at once, or maybe they don’t do as much when they could add more chores to their routine.
Some of the tasks include:
cleaning, which might involve walking around to mop or scrubbing (which feels like an intense workout of muscles).
moving things around, like groceries, trash, machines like vacuum cleaners, laundry, furniture, children, etc.
moving up and down stairs, which burn about double the calories versus walking (this may depend on people’s environment)
walking around in general which can involve a lot of steps
making things, or like weeding, working with manual tools, and so on
a lot of people don’t consider housework to be exercise for some reason
cooking at home
To note, sometimes it can be good to taste the local food and have the local food experience, but this is a !frugal tip for those who are inclined to save some money this way
thanks for catching that! There is a micromoon this week, but on Wednesday, and I grabbed the wrong article (that one should still be informative about micromoons)
This article mentions the correct date: https://www.timeanddate.com/astronomy/moon/micro-moon.html
interesting rollercoaster of a story, thanks for sharing
well psychology can be pretty non-scientific for one
Psychology is not a scientific field because it does not meet the five basic requirements for a field to be considered scientifically rigorous: clearly defined terminology, quantifiability, highly controlled experimental conditions, reproducibility, and predictability and testability.
lust might be another problem like gluttony for another
I got a lot of downvotes on this on lemmyworld but I may be speaking from a different perspective of already assuming that there are certain physical or scientific factors involved… it just doesn’t seem like enough to explain all the obesity we see in the world
also there seems to be some confusion, either all the factors are known for losing weight and people won’t do it (which is some kind of choice or spiritual issue), or we don’t know what all the factors are and you couldn’t in theory rule out something extra-scientific or there is more to the story… which is what we should discuss (I could see people disagreeing with me and having a good discussion about it but the downvotes seem like a little much)
I guess 4/32 would be most accurate, but I think a lot of these pushes for four day weeks are not for 10 hour days but 32 hours with fulltime pay
some are calling for 6 hour days whether on 4 or 5 day weeks which is another topic for discussion in perhaps anotger post or here as well
what are the recommendations for balancing the hormones (tl;dw if video discusses it?)
say I’m a flat earther, I say you look at the oceans and they’re flat, and you look at water and would expect it to just spill over (how can it be flat on a round earth? it makes no sense how the waters look on a round earth…)
or say you acknowledge that the composite images of the “Blue Marble” view of the earth have been faked: https://qz.com/192700/the-guy-who-created-iphones-earth-image-explains-why-he-needed-to-fake-it
how do we know the earth is the shape it is then if people are not honestly giving photographic evidence of its shape?
Or say with GPS, I say that could be done on the land, there is no need to rely on satellites. Then how do we need to believe in satellites orbiting the earth, when land operations are sufficient for explaining them?
Or say someone says they don’t know why people are lying about the earth being flat, when we know it is. What are they trying to hide by lying about its obvious flat shape?
and so on, to give you an idea of how a conversation might go
set up friction-less systems
When reddit imploded Lemmy wasn’t fully set up to take advantage of the exodus
I think it was good enough but now is better maybe
in my understanding, relying on wiki for definitions:
communism is stateless moneyless propertyless religionless classless society where there is the common ownership or non-ownership of the means of production
socialism in theory wants to prioritize the value of labor and seeks to have the common social democratic ownership of the means of production
what’s the boost button
someone suggested mini sponges instead
I guess maybe smaller might hurt less lol
Marriage is the sacred bond between a husband and wife which may allow for the biological production of children, as God created people male or female “in the image of God”
It’s therefore impossible for two people of the same gender to marry as it is outside of the divinely constituted institution of marriage, and the encyclical discusses at length the beauty of the matrimonial union
Higher-ups in the Church would therefore of course not sanction unnatural unions and would insist upon relationships that satisfy the mutual longing of man and woman
