These sticks look super uncomfortable to use though

I have recently stumbled upon Grayjay and it has instantly replaced NewPipe on my phone

Genuine question with no intention to talk down on someone: how are there adults that don’t know how to cook at least the basics? My mother told me a story about how she went on a trip at school and a teacher that apparently had never cooked before wanted to make spaghetti by putting them in the cold water and then boiling them. Ended up with a huge fused chunk of pasta. How can you not know how to at least make pasta as an adult? Parents and then partner that always cook for you?

“I think it’s very easy to convince people they are wrong.”

“Actually, here’s all these studies that prove that the opposite is-”

“Well I don’t believe that.”

Not Commander Keen, it was a lot grittier (if you can call games from that time gritty). Thanks though!

Yes. Cold showers (and that means as cold as you can make em) stimulate your immune system and activate your brown fat cells who in this artificial environment in which we’re never cold lie dormant. Brown fat activates just before you start shivering, it heats up the body by burning calories and helped our ancestors survive situations where they could just turn up the heat. There’s a cool book on this: “What doesn’t kill us” by Scott Carney. It’s about Scott, a journalist, being sceptical of the achievements of Wim Hof (the dude that takes hour long ice baths) and visiting him to prove that he’s a false prophet.

I once spent almost a year only taking cold showers. It sucks big time for ten seconds and then your body adjusts and you’re actually quite comfortable (seriously, try it. Pretty amazing feeling). Wish I hadn’t stopped, but come winter hot showers just became too enticing :D
