"We should not let anything overshadow the most important event the world will ever see, and that is the funeral of her majesty the queen" (Sir Lindsay Hoyle)

Aside from being one of the most ridiculous statements ever, what does that say about Charlie's upcoming coronation?!
It seems to me that in their haste to reboot the public's perception of the Royal family through this ridiculous PR campaign and infringement of our basic human rights, they forget that once this spectacle is all over, Charles will still be king. And there's no fixing that.
All his life he has acted like a spiteful, spoiled child. And when you're in your seventies and are one of the richest men in the world, that's gonna piss off a lot of people. Especially once the cold really kicks in and we're all queuing outside food banks.
So I for one sincerely hope that once the "most important event the world has ever seen" 🤮🙄is over, the end of the monarchy will begin. (And that Britain will finally realise what a small insignificant island it really is) #NotMyKing

Diabetes: a history lesson

250BC: Appolonius coins the term diabetes which refers to a condition in which people pass more water than they can consume. We now know that this is because excess sugar in the urine leads to the classical symptoms of weight loss, excess thrist/urine
11th century: a Persian scientist named Avicenna and several others began to notice that the urine of diabetics was sweet to the taste (don't ask) hence the term Diabetes Mellitus (the latter means honey in Latin)
18th century: scientists recognise that some people die within a few weeks of the their diagnosis and others live a lot longer. It becomes apparent that there are 2 types of diabetes.

BMI: a history lesson

The 1800s: Adolphe Quetlet, a eugenecist, measures the heights and weights of a group of white European male soldiers. He draws a graph and finds the centre of the bell curve. He refers to this as l'homme moyen (the average man).
He goes on to say that the AVERAGE man is the IDEAL man (this is where the eugencist comes out to play) and anyone that deviates from it is either less than or more than ideal (apparently more than ideal is bad in this case)
1900s: Louis Dublin, a well respected public health pioneer and lifelong employee of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, "developed a new formulation for the money value of a man as they provided measured dimensions for length of life and the outlook of future longevity..."

So people often ask, what's the limit. Surely I don't think a 600lb person is healthy.

First of all, why do you always say 600lbs. Ever asked yourself that? Why not 550 or 700? Its not an accident. The answer is the media and television. Think about that for a moment. Anyway...
So heres what I think. What does healthy mean to you? I'm asking you as an individual because there is no agreed upon definition of health. It's different for everyone. For many, healthy has a certain look. For others it's about disease prevention and longevity.
Others recognise that it is far more than physical. Plus there are a number of external factors that often get ignored (the environment, housing, employment - all have a massive impact on health outcomes).

Me? I just wanna be able to live life to the fullest in the here and now

Fat people die younger, right?

Wrong. Even the CDC admits that Fat peoplelive longer and even being very fat "fail[s] to show up as a statistically significant mortality risk".
But losing weight is definitely good for you, right?

Wrong. Not only is it impossible to sustain in up to 98% of dieters, but there's evidence that it leads to a variety of negative health outcomes (both physical and psychological)
But if you're diabetic or have high blood pressure/cholesterol though - then it's definitely good for you!

Wrong. There's no evidence to support this. There is evidence that demonstrates that lifestyle changes in the ABSENCE of weight loss does benefit your health.

The myth that the police exist to protect us is one that only exists within communities that have never experienced police brutality. The rest of us know that the police exist to enforce the desires of the ruling class and to subdue the masses

People have the right to protest the monarchy whenever and wherever they choose, whether that offends your sensibilities or not. The fact that our televisions, newspapers and radios are being used for the purposes of propaganda, is in of itself a worry.
But the fact that police officers are now using their powers to silence and arrest those who are exercising their right to freedom of expression should be a 🚩for all, no matter how you feel about the monarchy.
