Milk is bad for you

[gamefan5]

It matters where your food comes from. And what it is. As for potential harms, after decades of the trans fat misinformation debacle, I think it is wise to avoid all processed foods. Unfortunately, unless you happen to live near that almost extinct species "family farm," it is probably impossible.

Science's ability to self-correct is often shouted down, delayed, or bought off by corporados and medicine show con artists. Science is industry's bitch. The company, FDA, EMA, WMT whatever doesn't love you. It loves its bottom line and nothing else. Read Sonia Shah or Paul Farmer.... But hell, with 10,000+ nuclear weapons still in the world and less than 100 required to destroy global civilization, Pschitt-food is the least of our problems.

Believe it or not, you just proved his point that all that matters is the chemicals inside.
One of the things processed food has is unsaturated fat, trans fat being one of which which the human body does not recognize and reacts badly to it.

Which of course, produces bad Cholesterol and lowers good Cholesterol, so to speak.

It doesn't help that fat itself is rather difficult to digest compared to the other molecules as well.

It's not a matter of where, but how the chemicals are tempered when preparing food.
It is easy for example to remove the fat from meat when prepared single handedly as an example. And you can substitute said fat with other spices to produce the same (or close) quality of taste.
Molecular Gastronomy is a real thing.

-cows get raped to get milk

I see this word thrown around cheaply in lots of contexts not even involving physical or verbal contact,
but I never dreamed I'd see someone go ahead and use it here of all things.

How come did your mind go there? Is it because of the color?

I love milk.

Well, I majored in dead languages and my education lies like a forgotten toy on a corrugate roof I once read about in some Haiku.

I've never liked milk much; it has always smelled a little off to me even when fresh from the container, whatever the hell "fresh" means in the context of the processed shite most of us settle for from WalMart (the only store in town!).

Sadly, almost all the alternatives (soy- or nut- based) to milk are processed, sugary garbage food. There is usually only one choice that is not spiked with sugar.

I have nothing against sugar or junk food. When I eat a nice, honest Snickers bar, I know I am eating garbage that tastes good. When my milk is full of I-don't-know-what and my chips are fried in hydrogenated oil I get pissed. I also get pissed when products claim to have "zero" trans fat simply because lawyers have made it possible to round down 0.49 grams to zero. I also get pissed when I drink too much.

I'll use this opportunity to say that I love nukes, every country should have stacks of'em, both on SRM's and LRM's. Peace Walkers for all, that's my policy. If everyone had nukes, maybe the f*ckheads in Washington would think twice about invading countries that obviously cannot match their military power. There's no "invading" going on in Russia or China - that's because if you invade either, you'll get a nuke shoved up your a*s. No, they're invading dust bowls like Iraq or Afghanistan - because they have oil and don't have nukes. Nukes are great - nukes for everyone.

I drank some milk today. I'm alive. Obviously not bad for me. Maybe not good, but, not bad. Lol.

Not every country but every citizen!
Nukes are a right of the peoples!
We shall fight so that every family can mount an ICBM on their backyard and shoot either their neighbour next door or the annoying troll on the other side of the world!
Vote sarkwalvein for president of the world and get your right granted!

PS: Trust your MADness, if mutual assured destruction doesn't protect your right, it will at least crush the right of every possible offender.

PS2: Sorry, I drank too much milk and now I am having a milk hangover.

Quick! Say something related to avoid getting banned! Milk is yummy.

Who got banned?

Who got banned?

Just a statement to our staff here. I have seen quite a number of friends of mine get banned within the last few weeks. That's all.

With a memory as bad as mine, ( And no conversation records can be found anymore...? ) I can only recall @kelton(12)? I forget the whole username. @Jack_Sparrow and a few others I can only remember from talking to on here.

They both made duplicate accounts which is punishable by instant permanent ban. I remember that incident.

Nobody remembers poor explosively reactionary @the_randomizer.

I remember when I got called on by certain people for having a " Dupe ". @Gloomy Rube lol. No, but seriously, with the staff we have here, I don't trust myself to push this any further off topic than what it already is.

After seeing this threads growth, I have little faith in humanity.
I don't want to live on this planet anymore...

They're more lenient then you think. More so then most forums. There are just some situations that they are required to take action on immediately for security reasons. Duplicate accounts from the same ip is one of those, as they could be a potential attack on the site. Not to mention it's an obvious troll attempt. To be honest, if any action is taken against this conversation we're having now, they'll probably just delete our posts to clean the topic conversation. They aren't bad. In the end they have a responsibility to the site and it's owners that come before the users. That's what it means to be a staff member.

As far as I'm concerned, sure. If you can afford it, put a nuclear silo in your backyard. Deterrence only works if everyone has nukes - if you don't like nukes, force everybody to disarm, preferably with nukes. I don't like the idea that some countries are found "worthy" to stockpile them and others aren't - it's as if nobody learned anything from the Cuban Missile Crisis.

AFAIK, there are many problems with nukes.
Only looking at the strategic value of nukes, you can say that by themselves they are more of a hindrance than a deterrent.
By just having nukes you justify other countries to use nukes against you, and then comes the real problem.
Nukes are only a useful deterrent if you have an effective system to deploy them, that implies strong, advanced ever improving missile technology, a strong navy/submarine force and air force.
Also the effectiveness of yours and the others systems is affected by having advanced SAMs, radar, satellite and intelligence.
In the end, for your nuke to be useful to deter anybody else, you need to put a lot of money into developing a myriad of related technologies and maintaining up-to-date active missile sites, militar machinery and on duty forces.
Only economy or resource powerhouses like USA, Russia or China can really afford the luxury of throwing so much money into the garbage can instead of using it into more everyday issues like health, education and quality of life. IMHO.
