Reply to Research suggests that school-based physical activity intervention, by way of increasing physical exercise classes to daily during school, is successful in reducing childhood obesity. Scientists found that obesity was reversed after 3 years. by Wagamaga
It’s almost like moving around more burns calories and sitting around all day doesn’t, whoda thought huh?

Sorry fellas, infrastructure isn’t in the budget. Looks like you’ll have to settle for being financially ruined after a perfectly preventable disaster.

The migrant caravans they they organized to send to Martha’s Vinyard thinking that the Libs wouldn’t know what to do with all these people, only to find out that they would treat these people with some compassion and that it wasn’t even remotely the catastrophe that the right wanted it to be? Those migrant caravans?
It cracks me up every time just how badly it backfired.

The stuff they always complained about, Trans people in the bathrooms, Gays kissing in public, sexy cartoon characters being drawn a little less sexy. You already know.

Reply to comment by pete1901 in Left in isolation: how the online revolution failed our elderly people | As day-to-day services increasingly move to the internet, older and vulnerable people are cut off by SetMau92
You know what though? There are a lot of elderly people out there who are perfectly tech and internet savvy! It isn’t that old people are unable to learn, it’s that a lot of people of all age groups are just fully unwilling to learn. I’ve seen it in younger people I’ve worked with, they’re already set in their ways with the phones they have and anything that’s different or new scares them.

Reply to comment by subjecttomyopinion in CO2 ventilation breakthrough could turn city rooftops into bumper vegetable gardens by Sorin61
I work with a guy that said that if he was made ruler of the world, he’d have all the trees removed from the side of the road so that they won’t make a mess in the fall.
People just aren’t educated, they think plants are all over the place just for decoration. They were either never taught, or were never paying attention in school. They have no idea that plants consume CO2 and spit out oxygen. It’s called photosynthesis.
Go ahead and ask some people in your life if they can explain photosynthesis to you. You’d be shocked how many people know the word but have no idea what it actually means.
The problem’s about to get worse unfortunately, the young generation suffered serious setbacks in education thanks to the most recent pandemic.

It doesn’t work like that, you would do so poorly in an economics course that you would fail out.

He’s the second richest man in the world. You don’t get there and stay there without being absolutely batshit and doing some evil stuff. It comes with the territory of being that obscenely rich.

As a general rule of thumb yeah. Inactivity is a killer, literally. You can never retire from physical fitness.

Reply to comment by monkeying_around369 in Heavy workloads make employees feel a greater need for a break, but new research finds they may actually discourage employees from taking breaks at work despite causing high levels of stress, fatigue, and poor performance. by Wagamaga
When my workload is overwhelming, I do what I can and I return to my boss with the work orders that haven’t been completed and say “I’ll add one or two of these in tomorrow and the next day to see if we can get caught up, but this is too much for today.”
I’m not going to pull the impossible and set crazy expectations for the future.
