Pulptastic@midwest.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How has standing or standing-sitting vs sitting while working affected your life?English3·3 days agoThe nubs on croc insoles are not that great and start to irritate me after a bit. Maybe there are reduced-nub alternatives out there.
Pulptastic@midwest.socialto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Are infidelities really that common?English2·3 days agoThat’s interesting. I wonder how much religion plays into it. My marriage is monogamous but we are both open to each other about attractions outside the marriage. It is OK to be turned on by someone else or some other situation, and we can use that together. It also helps that we both don’t generally like other people; we have a close knit group of friends but most folks we meet outside that are obnoxious and gross.
Pulptastic@midwest.socialto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What was the biggest pill you've had to swallow about your own self or habits?English1·5 days agoI’ve basically learned that drinking sucks. A long time ago I would drink 1 beer a day, 2-3 on weekends. A few years later I cut it down to 1 a day. A few years after that I cut to 3 a week. This year I do 1 occasionally. When I have that 1 I sleep like crap, my stress score is higher, I gain weight and feel bloated, and it’s just not worth the buzz. I am considering a full quit, or cut back to 4 a year. I have quite the liquor cabinet, lots of good stuff, but basically stopped drinking it.

Pulptastic@midwest.socialto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Social media sites should have 'reverse' Parental Controls; where adult children can block their boomer/senior parents' accounts from viewing conspiracy and radicalizing content.English131·27 days agoThat’s a feature, not a bug. They show that stuff intentionally.
Pulptastic@midwest.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why does it seem like so many (young) men these days flock over to types like Andrew Tate?English1·29 days agoWeak fathers, in the sense that the recent generations have been abandoned and ignored a lot more. Turns out that is on par with fucking beating your kids. At least the boomers got attention from their fathers.
The boomers and prior gens were the definition of absent fathers.

Pulptastic@midwest.socialto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How many of you have nice parents that listen?English5·1 month agoOne good one. Supportive, listened to me, encouraged me to be me, put my needs first. I talk to them regularly and fly across the country to visit.
The other never listened, was totally phoning it in, is mow and has always been a terrible human being. I have all but cut them from my life.

Pulptastic@midwest.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is one moral you have that most people don't agree with?English4·2 months agoYeah you can’t really require a license to do something like that, it is impossible to enforce. What you can do is offer safety systems. Free protection, free testing, safe harbor when needed, a safe space to work. People want to be safe, if you make it free and easy they’ll use those services and our societal cost goes down.
Pulptastic@midwest.socialto Memes@lemmy.ml•Spoiler: It's not the bones that are heavy🥲English1·2 months agoI don’t care if the calculated % is wrong and I don’t believe you about changes in error. A thinner subcutaneous fat layer will form a thinner pinch at the same load. I am aware that it is an indirect measure but nonetheless it helps me meet my goals.
Pulptastic@midwest.socialto Memes@lemmy.ml•Spoiler: It's not the bones that are heavy🥲English1·2 months agoAs an amateur who has used them enough to get repeatable results, I strongly disagree with you. Yes they are not accurate but they can be precise enough to track progress when the scale is flat or up due to a recomp.
Pulptastic@midwest.socialto Memes@lemmy.ml•Spoiler: It's not the bones that are heavy🥲English11·2 months agoSkin fold isn’t necessary accurate but it is repeatable. I’d you measure the same spots the same way you can tell if you are gaining or losing fat.
A butter knife could cut them all too.
