I will absolutely lose my shit if/when Nixon turns up in North for a few shows.

Is it everything I wanted? No.

Is it a relief to have a budget that is at least economically literate? Fuck yes.

Do I want more next year? Absolutely.

OK, go on, how does reducing the NI cost for small businesses fuck them over?

Looks like HHH did indeed learn a lesson from nearly killing BritWres, and that lesson was it being widely successful for him and he should do it again!

This pre-PC positioning is absolutely insane.

Zoom!

It absolutely fucks!

I’m pretty sure it’s the first match of Mike D’s I’ve seen and he absolutely blew me away. Myles is also doing a great job as English Randy Orton From Wish, his upside is crazy, amazes me that he’s had no US bookings.

People who claim both parties are the shame are just showing their privilege.

It’s the same in the UK, do Labour come anywhere close to having the policies I want? No. Are they closer to them than the Tories? Yes.

Vote on one day, organise on the other 1200+ days.

And North! 😁

For AEW, yes.

Babe, wake up…

I mean, I absolutely love dumb as fuck wrestling.

But it’s no Yoshihiko.

Oh Trevor, yous trollin

His llamas kicked.

They both deserve so much more.

The comment I originally replied to was asking about removal of appetite. The point I was making was that appetite isn’t the only reason people consume calories.

The jabs do not cause you to exercise, and losing weight without some level of exercise to build fitness is also not healthy.

The point Streeting is making is that you can’t just eat to excess and expect, 20 years later, that the NHS can fix all your problems with an injection.

It’s the same way that alcoholics are not given liver or kidney transplants, or smokers new lungs, because even if you did the transplants all the other problems (cancers, etc) would still exist.

Primary healthcare is really complicated because you’re dealing with people who are generally speaking not at the worse bit, yet, and so patient’s motivation to consider, let alone make, changes can be non-existent.

This in turn is what makes a preventative healthcare model so much harder to achieve. The best way to treat T2 diabetes is to not get there in the first place, but friends of mine routinely have conversations with patients where their likelihood of having T2D, or stroke, heart attack, etc, is very high within the next 5 years, and are met with blunt refusals to even consider something as trivial as a lower calorie butter/spread, and instead just demand a jab.

This is not everyone, but it is a significant proportion, and it’s right the Health Secretary to remind people that while the NHS does exist, and will support you if you get there, that it’s better for yourself to not end up there in the first place.

I’m glad it’s working for you, I truly am.

But my point is that there are a variety of reasons, it will help some people with some of them, and won’t help others. As you’ll see in all the issued guidance, it’s prescribed alongside diet and lifestyle changes. As in, move more and eat healthier foods, in lower quantities.

If that helps, awesome, I’m not going to bash people who need medication to function - as I literally am one of those people - but it’s not a silver bullet.

Now the question must be asked; is Moo Deng going to beat Hayter for the Queen of the Sub title?

Yay!

The benefit of climbing meaning you maintain a level of physical fitness definitely outweighs the risk of you breaking a bone, or dying.

The issue with obesity is that it dramatically increases the risks of loads of other illnesses, many of which kill you very slowly.

You fundamentally should never trust a study commissioned by the company who sells the product.

It’s far too great a conflict of interest.

There’s a false premise here that people only eat when/because they are hungry, as in, they are in need of calories, and stop when they aren’t.

They don’t. People eat for loads of reasons, and many of us have really unhealthy relationships with food, e.g. we eat it we’re sad, or bored, or to punish ourselves, etc.

Then there’s calorie density, you may not even realise how much you’re consuming. For example, a pint of beer has a similar amount of calories to a mars bar. You could quite comfortably drink 4 pints over an afternoon, consume 1000 calories, and then go out for a meal, in a way that you probably wouldn’t eat 4 mars bars, and then have a meal.
