If you're doing shakes, do it after you workout

Wait at least an hour and half to work out after eating so your body can actually digest the food you're eating. Otherwise you'll feel bloated and queasy working out.

Look up an actual lifting routine. Do Starting Strength 5x5 or Stronglifts 5x5 for the first few weeks/months to get a feel for technique. Then once you can't make progress every workout session on either of those two, switch over to something like the reddit PPL, GSLP, any 5/3/1 variation, etc.

"The Elephants's Foot" is an extremely radioactive mass of material formed by the Chernobyl disaster in 1986. It is named for its wrinkly appearance, resembling the foot of an elephant. Observations determined that it was made up of nuclear fuel, melted concrete, sand, and core shielding that melted and flowed together. Currently, spending an hour in the same room as the elephant's foot will lead to death. Multiple photos of the elephant's foot have been taken, with one even including a worker standing next to it. Over time, it decomposed, but it will remain radioactive for over 100,000 years

Been doing keto/keto-ish since September with some good results. Initially started because I heard it was really good for preserving muscle mass while cutting. I've lost about 30 pounds since then and I'm still losing some some overall. Started to introduce some dextrose for the gym (15-20g) because I've been bonking but the best thing about the diet is that I don't really have hunger massive hunger pangs as opposed to any other time I've dieted.

Supplement electrolytes, especially sodium, and you should be fine. Head over to the subreddit for more information.

Those men were created in gods image, and are following the nature bestowed to them by god, and is all in accordance to his divine plan

Men are spiritually created in the image of our Lord. Our Lord does not contain the selfish desires of the mortal flesh. God does not crave for things the way we do.

But he knows we do and let's us do it. Thus, he creates those things.

God controls no man's actions. Everyone is presented with a choice. Just because God knows what you're going to pick doesn't mean he made the choice for you.


Your choices are determined by his divine plan

If God exists you have to concede he is somewhat accountable for the billions that have died over the lifetime of this planet due to natural selection, natural disasters, disease, famine, etc.

Not a single person of faith is willing to concede that.

The dead are lucky because they get to leave the shitty mortal existence that we have on Earth where we are cursed with selfish desires of the flesh that lead to violence and suffering. Which are not results of God, but results of men who believe that this world is all that matters so it is important to amass as much power and decadence as possible. Could God have made the world a peaceful place with zero free will? Sure, but everyone would be a slave unable to provide God the worship that He created us for.

You view dying early as terrible because they are leaving you, I view it as fortunate because it is the transition to being with God. Mourning is for the living, not for the departed.

That's just part of the curse that was instituted when Adam and Eve took of the Tree of Knowledge.

God seems like a pretty fucked up guy, punishing everyone forever because he apparently wasn't smart enough to know the first two people he created might fuck up

If everything in life was always hunky-dory and never had moments of difficulty just as it was in Eden, do you honestly believe that men would actively seek God, or would they be like those that live in wealthy countries that have declining rates of those that are actively religious?

Are you trying to imply poor countries are more hunky dory than rich ones? By which metric has them staying "closer to God" made them good places to live? Is it the starving?
The early deaths? The civil wars? The despots? I'm sorry, I think God is downright evil if he makes some people suffer and die in hopes that it will push others towards loving him. We'd rip a man to shreds if we found out he was acting in such a detestable way. Apparently God views some innocent people as expendable.


This is why I believe that IF there is a God, it is merely a prime mover and not a moral being

For how effective that tactic was I don't think they would be expensive enough to deter. Plus the ship it took out had to have been 10 times more expensive.


I don't think the resistance could afford to keep doing this as a main battle tactic. I'm sure that one ship was used a whole lot before it kamikazed.


The cost ratio, especially considering the rebel losses in almost every battle would be FAR better suited to this sort of tactic. Especially considering you could easily get the same result with one-man ships.


You have to remember that the Rebels are trying to be a symbol of hope for the galaxy. If their go to tactic was kamikaze attacks they'd be seen as the in-universe ISIS.

At first the Emperor was just the evil dude behind everything, but once they established how the Sith work and all that junk in later entries (Rule of Two, etc), it then leaves Star Wars fans feeling like something that should have been explained is being left out for no reason. For the general audience, he just fulfills the same role as Sidious did in the OT.
