Alot of work nowadays is also very...sedentary.
After switching from food service to a call center I gained like 50 pounds....I have a pudge. :(


It happens to the best of us old boy. The old problem used to be ironically the dreaded one pound per year weight gain. Which at the end of life would be disaster tier. Now it seems we are snapping into a two tier health system weight Wise. Being fit is a function of wealth, as is the traditional two parent household and a slew of other things. It is strange.

Tbqh, I’m just glad that I managed to avoid the “freshman fifteen”, ngl. I actually lost a few pounds, which is a nice bonus.

I did too, but then I got put on a medication by my psychiatrist that apparently (and I only just learned that it does this), kills off a lot of the intestinal bacteria and causes significant weight gain. Fortunately, now that I'm off that medication, I'm losing weight rapidly with a new psychiatrist who told me about that side effect.

The Marxists tbh are right in that we will be condemned to live in the pod and eat the bugs while they get to live the idealized dream behind fortress gates. They will miss us when we are gone.

Then that's separate from what I'm talking about, though I do strongly support making extended PE classes mandatory in schools as well as expanding ROTC programs.

I showed this to TEM a while back but it still holds true.
Obesity is a National Security Issue

We need to take a hard look at what young people are eating and how their getting their exercise, because that influences their behavior later in life.


Never thought I'd agree with Mark Hertling but yeah we're in agreement here. Especially the PE and ROTC part.
What would things have been like if every security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive? Or if during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? The Organs would quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!

Jobs that pay you enough to be able to afford to eat healthy are largely extremely sedentary (think white collar office jobs) and take up much of your day, and sometimes require you to bring work home with you, leaving you little to no time to prepare a full meal (which depending on what you're making can take anywhere from 15 minutes to a couple hours) and get to bed in time to be able to get up for the next day. Meanwhile most jobs that are more physically active and you don't have to worry about once you clock out don't pay much money. Everyone wants everything quick, and those who are making less money are looking for something cheap yet filling. Put those together and it's not a huge shock that people stuffing their faces with terrible processed crap all the time.

Admittedly, cyberpunk has the best aesthetics. I was just expecting Robocop, Blade Runner, GITS, Neuromancer or Judge Dredd and not fucking Demolition Man.

Are you implying that San Angeles is a dystopia, citizen Nap? It is a perfect society. San Angeles is a beacon of order with the purity of an ant colony and the beauty of a flawless pearl.

Y’know, I don’t even know if I’m joking or not. But I do know that elements of it will be added to my write-up on the Greater Pennsylvanian Hive.

No, you don't need to any of this, that's like saying the availability of guns is why we have high rates of gang violence and such. People just need to learn to have some fucking self control.


The availability of guns in the United States does contribute massively to gun violence though. "Self-control" isn't a very good argument when you have multibillion dollar companies who can afford to spend billions on finding ways to get you to cave and eat their trash. Give me an actual reason Coca Cola and twinkies should exist.

It really is. Demolition Man easily has one of the most nefarious dystopias. You aren't drugged up into oblivion like in Brave New World, you aren't dodging the neo-Stasi like in 1984, you aren't living in crime ridden hell hole like Judge Dredd - you just live in an incredibly boring society.
