I know people who use the tracking feature because it helps them remember to brush their teeth (they're ADHD)

Friendly reminder that 1200 calories is the recommended amount for a 5 year old

[rambirb-deactivated20221115]

this hit me.

another fact is that 500 calories isn’t even enough for a new born.

why did I go so long convinced that going over 500 in a day was the end of the world?

[naamahdarling]

Another friendly reminder that the United States used 1,000 calorie diets as torture for political prisoners and justified it using the diet industry.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/04/17/bush-torture-memos-commer_n_188190.html

In a footnote to a May 10, 2005, memorandum from the Office of Legal Council, the Bush attorney general’s office argued that restricting the caloric intake of terrorist suspects to 1000 calories a day was medically safe because people in the United States were dieting along those lines voluntarily.

“While detainees subject to dietary manipulation are obviously situated differently from individuals who voluntarily engage in commercial weight-loss programs, we note that widely available commercial weight-loss programs in the United States employ diets of 1000 kcal/day for sustain periods of weeks or longer without requiring medical supervision,” read the footnote. “While we do not equate commercial weight loss programs and this interrogation technique, the fact that these calorie levels are used in the weight-loss programs, in our view, is instructive in evaluating the medical safety of the interrogation technique.”

Another another friendly reminder that the Minnesota Starvation Experiment subjected adult men who were VOLUNTEERS to 1,560 calorie diets and the psychological effects were so profound that one volunteer cut three of his own fingers off and could not remember why.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minnesota_Starvation_Experiment

These men were volunteers who knew exactly what they would be going through and when it would end, and who believed they were doing it for a good and moral reason (the research was used to help rehabilitate victims of starvation and famine at the end of WWII).

And these are the things we are expected to engage in FOREVER to stay at a “healthy” weight.

Reading about the Minnesota Starvation experiment was my wake-up call.  It was what kicked me out of my eating disorder.  The guy missing three fingers, whatever his name was, he was the last straw for me.

Scared me so fucking bad I stopped restricting my food that day, and never went back to it.

[naamahdarling]

Just bringin’ this back around like I sometimes do.

[to-dance-beneath-the-diamond-sky]

Wow. This really hit me hard.

[radicalduck]

EAT

[bigmouthlass]

Fun fact– calorie restriction exacerbates symptoms of pretty much *every* mental illness.

[zenosyneee]

One of the BEST WAYS I fight my anorexia is wising up with scientific facts, and letting go of my twisted logic!!!

When you feel like restricting, remember that diet culture MADE you think restriction=weightloss=skinny=Good.

[naamahdarling]

Gina Kolata’s book Rethinking Thin has a lot of fact and is very readable, for those wanting a jumping-off point.

[imfemalewarrior]

Diet Culture also tries to lie to you by telling you if you restrict long enough you will conquer hunger. This is impossible, and it is a lie designed to keep you dependent on diets and to scam you out of your money purchasing diet products. Feeling hunger is part of the human condition, it means you are alive and healthy. 

Eat until are sated, and eat when you are hungry. 

-FemaleWarrior, She/They 

[lemmondoggay]

Fun fact there's actually a natural way to eat to get the ideal body type!

Eat when you're hungry

That's why hunger exists, if you end up being fatter or thinner than you thought, that's still your ideal body type, your body generally knows what it's doing.

[demonius-darkblade]

imagine converting to the catholic church LMAO catholicism is only supposed to be passed down from parent to child in a manner best described as ‘if I had to live like this then so do you’

12 Adult Actors Who Played Teens Vs. What Teens Really Look Like

[hanszimmr]

Grease, enough said 

[newyorkcitysubway-deactivated20]

i love that this article is not only pointing out a super common and troubling phenomenon in movie culture but was also probably set up the way it is specifically so the author could put embarrassing pictures of their friends on buzzfeed

[lemmondoggay]

This stuff warped my perception of teenager for so long oml

[beepbeepdaddad-deactivated20180]

i have a deep respect for scotland because i was at an ireland vs scotland football match and their chant was “we hate england more than you”

[brood-mother]

one time at a germany vs scotland game some german fans started the “stand up if you hate england” chant and the whole stadium stood up

[gan-firling-deactivated20141208]

WHAT DID WE DO?!

When old people in England complain about all of the immigrants, I always reply:

“Well then perhaps England shouldn’t have run around the planet sticking its dick in every bloody country. Inviting them over for tea is the least England can do.”

[trickstertime]

“The English have a reputation for invading lots of different countries and then being really annoyed when those people follow them home” - Tommy Tiernan

[beameized]

The USA is doing that rn and is mad at immigrants so some things never change

[kaldicuct]

When did America invade Mexico? Just wondering.

[skrytch]

1846

[graylibrary]

dude we didn’t just invade, we TOOK PARTS OF MEXICO. Multiple states used to be part of Mexico, like, for example, the one named NEW MEXICO.

[takkezooi-deactivated20200726]

In the Netherlands, abortion is legal. There is however one pro life organization called Stichting Schreeuw Om Leven. But instead of harrassing women who are on their way to the abortion clinic and make them feel miserable, they offer them HELP.

If a woman wants to get an abortion because she is financially unable to give birth to and raise a baby, the organization will pay for everything she needs during the pregnancy and after, until she’s financially stable to raise the baby on her own.

This organization won’t stop women from going to the abortion clinic, but would rather hve a healthy conversation with them. Ask them if they can help her with anything in order for them to keep the baby. They also hand out contraception in the streets for those who can’t afford it.

Women don’t get abortions just because they want to. There are reasons why. This organization doesn’t fight abortion, it fights the reasons why women get abortions. Take notes America.

[thelearnedsoldiertoo]

America doesn’t WANT to take notes. Anti-abortion in America isn’t about actually preventing abortions it’s about controlling women. That’s it. That’s all it is.

[kaylapocalypse-deactivated20201]

its also about creating more poor people because rich people need a healthy thriving number count of poor people in order to remain rich a’la snowpiercer. 

[lemmondoggay]

If that organisation is okay with people getting abortions its surely still pro-choice since though they will do everything they can't to help her not get an abortion they aren't trying to force her, they leave the choice to her.

[blueskittlesart]

botw is so fucking funny when u remember that all of these normal hyrulian people dont know what the fuck is going on. link has been gone for 100 years like to any outsider hes just a random guy smashing all the pots in their only recently rebuilt village and then fucking right off never to be seen again

[blueskittlesart]

me, a normal hyrulian girl: mom this guy is outside hitting our crates with a skeleton arm that’s still moving for some reason and stealing our apples when they break

my mom, crying because thats the hero of legend or whatever: hes going to save us all

“Hey, are you a barmaid? Because I’m a bar(d), and seeing you just maid my day *wink*” immediately eats a pitcher of ice water to the face

[transmascworld]

New concept: Lets support all trans people and not just the ones we find attractive.

[toontwink]

oh big mood

[lavendarjevil]

Large. Fucking. Mood. You can’t consider yourself an ally if you just support hot trans people. That’s just being a fetishist. Your ability to pass or even just your general looks hold no bearing on your right for human love and support.

[tetch-a-sketch]

Also another dandy concept don’t misgender or deadname a trans person just because you don’t like them.

[securityunit-ese]

These are hilarious! NGL major preference for adults here. Other adult bonuses:

Don’t need naps

Can go on hikes for longer

Can be left alone for longer

Less fragile

Teeth don’t randomly fall out

Majority of teenage hormonal bullshit is over

Surprise fear periods done with

No more growing in size or coat

[thegreenwolf]

Pikka was five when I adopted her, and while she has her quirks from poor treatment in her previous life at least I have a pretty good idea of who she is. Any changes are more predictable because I can see the intersection of her personality and behavior patterns with how I treat and train her, and while I’m sure she’ll always surprise me, most of the time I should be better prepared. 

[chemicalkin]

In case anyone was wondering, these come in cat

[securityunit-ese]

Holy shit it comes in cat

[chironomy]

this is a fantastic ad campaign

[lemmondoggay]

Love this except my grown ass dog still eats shit

[penguinsledder]

OKAY SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME HOW WE GOT FROM THIS

TO THIS

Are you freakin serious?!?! This is what the outfit looks like btw

The jeans are even kinda baggy at the shoe??? It’s more of a relaxed fit than skinny???

And she’s not really baring any skin??

Seriously she almost DIED fighting for her right to education and now she has the opportunity to study at Oxford and people are bashing her clothes 😒

[itsprinceoliveruniverse]

She’s a fucking adult who’s done more the past 5 years for equal rights and education than most will do in their entire life’s

[shadowshown]

If you bully Malala I will personally come to your house and break your arms.

[lemmondoggay]

I wouldn't use such violent means but yeah what kind of person insults Malala?
