1 year agoNice article but it doesn’t really prove that calories are not equal. The article discusses how the calories get absorbed differently, but that doesn’t mean the calories have changed or disappeared. Kind of misleading title.
I am very similar and I agree with this, specially with the limited emotional energy. It is physically/mentally not possible to handle all the bad shit in the world; I only focus on those around me. For example, I only have one homosexual friend, but I never speak about sexual topics anyway so that never comes up. I will never take part in a gay pride parade, but I will also never stop it or oppose it. This goes on for many topics as well.
So yeah, fairly neutral on such topics, and prefer to stay neutral. Even for topics I don’t agree on, I still try not to pick a side. “But you should be pro-X and pro-Y because of Z!”, no, take my neutrality as a sign that I am not against your existance.
