https://www.reuters.com/world/us/usda-says-it-is-working-comply-with-court-order-pay-food-aid-benefits-2025-11-07/ I guess Trump is happy that SNAP recipients are suffering as much as possible. (also in post #88 I mentioned how shops were banned from giving SNAP recipients discounts) [though I...

Yeah fat is 9 calories/gram, and protein and carbs are 4 calories/gram. So "simple" sugar has less that half the calories of fat but it is less healthy than certain fats. It's more complicated than just the calories. To fatten chickens it is 20% protein, 60% carbs and 5% fat. But bird seed...

So they're hurting those SNAP recipients (banning discounts) to hurt Democrats? Note that it is affecting MAGA too to some degree. Maybe they did it because they knew it would get news coverage and cause some outrage...

Reducing housing costs would help ordinary people so therefore it shouldn't be done. Promises could have been made but Trump's priorities now are rich donors, etc.

Trump's government doing what it can to hurt SNAP recipients as much as possible: https://www.msnbc.com/the-weekend-primetime/watch/trump-s-usda-bars-grocery-stores-from-offering-discount-for-snap-recipients-251625541764...

And don't forget a higher proportion were now store-brand items... Trump also mentioned this example of better affordability at the White House

About obesity/overweight in the US vs places like Japan: That's like 11 slices of bread, etc, a day! (and burger buns, pizza bases, breakfast cereals) Then there are diets that completely cut out grains/cereal even though this pyramid says they're the most important part of a healthy diet...

...for beginners. Here is some borrowed code I've been working on: def fact(n): if n == 0: return 1 else: return fact(n-1) * n while True: n = int(input("Enter a natural number ")) print (fact(n)) I can enter numbers up to around 985 - which gives the answer...

It seems fat can come off some areas before others. For me it seems it comes off areas like the buttocks earlier and the belly and manboobs would be later. It's even starting to come off my face (which would be worse if I went below 70 kg). BTW when I was in high school I was very skinny but I...

In response to myself, I can get to whatever weight I want by counting calories, but I can't get to my desired body fat percentage. I'm "skinny fat". I've read that if you keep on losing weight you'd eventually lose most of the belly fat but I decided that 71 kg (156 lb) is the lowest I want to...

It might hurt their feelings but it could be effective at least at first. I think the worst thing you can do is to say nothing and offer them food (being an "enabler"). Other possibilities involve suggesting different alternatives and not buy them food that is too high calorie. Fat shaming could...

BTW 42% of American adults are obese and 74% are overweight or obese...

This video compares US convience foods to Japan. In Japan it is very easy to find convient affordable healthy foods including in vending machines. They also have smaller servings and have foods that are less sweet (less sugar). School lunches are also very healthy while US kids can have lots of...

If it's just about your weight I think what matters is calories, not necessarily what is healthy (but ideally both). I think sumos eat a healthy diet (besides beer and occasionally fried foods). I calorie count but it is to not lose weight (I need about 12,000 kJ/day to maintain 71 kg though the...

Apparently about 36% of the recipients are children. https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2023/07/19/what-the-data-says-about-food-stamps-in-the-u-s/ BTW obesity can make people feel "safe" (which led to the end of perfect diet results) https://fat.lifesplayer.com/safe-fat.php I think...

I thought it was interesting that prostitution doesn't seem to be that bad in the Old Testament but adultery has the death penalty. They're both about having sex with women that aren't your wife. This is related to sex before marriage:

I think Trump and his team are thinking a few moves ahead of their rivals. People get outraged every now and then but Trump and his team know they can get away with it. Then those things become normalized and so they keep on pushing the envelope.

Sorry I'm not sure what you mean... who is "his audience" and "they"? MAGA or ordinary people? And who alledgedly started it? (Democrats?)
