Dialog intended to light a fire under our asses: Trump: There’s cheating in elections I must fix it! Us: What no there isn’t piss off. (Trump cheats in election) Us: hold up fuckwit Trump: I tried to tell you but you wouldn’t listen too late now

Caloric intake orders of magnitude are insightful. Almost all food is 4-8kcal/gram, it’s the free energy stored in the covalent bonds of the molecules. One eats about 500 grams of food per day, and by fasting you can lose up to 500 grams of weight per day. Roughly.
