  • An unhealthy lifestyle can cause you to get fat but being fat doesn't necessarily mean you live an unhealthy lifestyle.

    The focus should be on the lifestyle and not on how people look.

  • That is a myth - for many people, trying to lose weight is counter productive to living a healthy life.

    Sometimes sick people are/get fat and sometimes being fat can strain the body. But trying to make your body thinner than it wants to be is also associated with strain on the body.

    I am not trying to say, that fatness and health are totally unrelated, but the correlation is not as important as people make it out to be.

    This article explains it quite nicely.

  • You can be fat without eating too much and it is okay to be fat.

    For some people being fat is like being red-haired, just genetics and for others it might be caused by illness. In all cases, fat people still deserve respect.

    I say this because stupid myths about and prejudice against fat people cause a lot of harm and even death.

  • All the visuals in the video seem to be generated by AI.

    The video lists no sources, the claims are ridiculous and I couldn't find anything to support the theory or even the existence of anything mentioned in the video.

    The whole video seems bogus and made up.

  • the "collective" is just me, my boyfriend and two of our friends :))

    we've lived together for about 7 years and plan on keeping it going. I don't know if collective is the right word to describe our living situation but I can't think of a better word either :)

  • I like to collect mugs - nothing better than drinking your morning coffee from a crazy mug :))

    I collect mugs with my boyfriend (and the rest of my collective) and it is such a nice hobby. I can almost always guess who brought the mug into the house, based on people's interest.

    Yesterday I drank coffe from a Friday the 13th Mug and I know one of my collectivists loves that series :))

    the only issue, as with all collections, it takes up so much room in the kitchen 🥲

  • I've worked in shipping for a couple months and I can only say this: People should order way less stuff online or make sure they are using an ethical shipping company (if they even exist).

    the industry prays on young people (often minorities) who have trouble getting other jobs. they almost exclusively hire people with short term contracts (because your body can't take the work for more than a few months). I've been part of a union for a long time and I know a lot about work safety. These companies teach people nothing and they can only meet their deadlines if people actively break their backs twisting around, doing unsafe lifts and generally working to fast.

    I get that shipping is sometimes necessary, but it can only be as fast and cheap as it is, because poor people pay with their bodies.

  • as mentioned by (an) other comment(s), you should add Kakoune under text editors, perhaps with the text:

    Kakoune

    A modal terminal text editor based on Vi. Kakoune is based on selection before action and is committed to the unix Philosophy.

    and when talking about descriptions, I don't have a problem with the descriptions being subjective in tone, but could you remove the word "master race" from the Vim description ?

    while I understand the history of using "master race" in tech related discussions, I think the nazi history overrules that by a long shot. Even if it didn't have the history it did, the word emanates eugenics.

    otherwise, I think it is a nice list and a good initiative :))

    I really like community made resources :))
