Great post!

I wanted to add that this isn’t quite how proteins work. Those protein-rich legumes aren’t what you would call ‘complete proteins.’ There’s a number of amino acids our bodies use as proteins and while legumes are a good source of many of them, there’s a couple proteins you won’t get enough of from just the beans. Fortunately, brown rice- while not as rich in protein- gives you the proteins that the beans are lacking. That’s why beans and rice are a match made in heaven.

Herbivorous animals are just better at metabolising proteins from plants and of course they’re capable of eating much more than us. That’s why they’re able to live off of grass.

This just stuff I read up on a few years ago so if I’ve gotten something wrong please say so

You might notice Pork Belly and Ribeye Steak belong way higher than the red dots representing them. In your proposition, I don’t think there exists an elegant way to represent those data points.

Please please please come back.

Then what is your explanation for black and brown people more likely to use the skin toned emojis, as has been mentioned so much in this thread? Are they less lazy than white people, or care more about it? If they care more about it, then why?

White dude here. I use the white skin emojis, but honestly I think it’s just because I see my black and brown friends use their skin tones as a rule, and I feel like using the yellow tone is a bit weird when others are using the skin tone customization.

I’m not ashamed of my skin color or anything and the phone remembers my last tone selection so I don’t really see a reason to not use it.

Yeah I wish I had a better way to contribute to the community but I think I could do worse than just highlighting a smallish content creator that I admire.

We are the protagonists

All and probably most Local feeds are negative. If you’re looking for a more positive experience, you should change the way you interact with Lemmy and the Fediverse.

First, you should investigate different instances (or consider hosting your own) and find one that sounds like it has a better vibe. Then use the Local feeds instead of All.

Second, look for better communities. Many people complain about there being different iterations of communities but this is where that’s a strength of Lemmy’s structure. If the news community you’re frequenting is too full of downers, then look into different news communities. Or- again- if you’re feeling up to it, make your own and advertise it as a light-hearted community, then moderate it as such.

Is there any reason to believe Zinny might be on the way out other than that the fans are down on him?

Yes I always find it a bit disappointing when managers jump away from a team they were doing well with at the first chance they get. Looking forward to seeing how Ipswich fair.

I don’t know what you’re referencing, sorry if im a bit dense haha

Absolutely, and it’s infuriating. The only thing that can stand between criminals and sociopaths is the vote, and a too much of the vote is controlled by morons.

Yes, and it’s important that felons be able to run for president. Were that not the case, a corrupt enough system could just disqualify anyone that would seek to oust it.

Try to improve lemmy/fediverse 100%

I have to wonder if those who complained about the Jorginho and Kai deals are the same complaining about the Rashford links.

I think City’s success has made it clear how poorly most big clubs are run relative to how well they could be run. Cheats or not, they are very well organized.

Yeah those comments are annoying
