“I love you.”

It was a phrase Black Hat had started hearing often from Flug. Admittedly, it took a lot of getting used to.

Love. He’d always thought of it as such a revolting concept. Yet, he’d feel something strange whenever the doctor said it to him. Something… pleasant.

Even more shockingly, he found he had a desire to say it back. Gross.

……… But still though. How is he to do that?

Every time he’s tried to even say it, he gags on his own words. Ugh, it’s so stupid. Flug must think it’s ridiculous, trying to return a phrase so simple only to back out every time after choking on just the damn “L”.

No, it is ridiculous. Black Hat won’t let some– some dumb word get the best of him!

Aliens and diets

Another thing I thought about was how aliens may find diets to be a strange thing, and not only the diet itself, but the reason why most of them exist.

I mean, humans - at least many in first world countries -  have gotten to the point where they need to limit what they eat in order to maintain good health. Many can’t just eat whatever they eatable thing they can get their hands on whenever they are hungry because that will cause health issues in the long run. There are also other reasons for people to have diets, such as religious reasons.

But then, there are those who nutritionally deprive themselves on purpose without any religious/ceremonial reason. Those on the low/no carb diet are depriving themselves of their largest energy source. I understand that many people do that for weight loss, which is an important issue for some, but most that I’ve seen on such diets are of average build and I at least assume that there is no health benefit for them. The vegan diet is another popular one that often deprives others of nutrients. Don’t get me wrong here, it is entirely possible for a vegan to get all the protein and iron they need to function properly, but it is difficult to do so and many people don’t really know how. I have known a few people who are vegan and also have anemia. Also, the reason for being vegan isn’t always the same. Some do it because it’s healthier and it is in many aspects. Some do it because they believe that it is better for the world.

I don’t have much evidence for this one, but there are also those who diet for science. To prove that weight loss has nothing to do with nutrition and calorie counting is what actually determines weight loss, A man went on a diet purely of junk food for two months. He only ate things like Twinkies, Oreos, Doritos, and sugary cereals in small quantities, and lost a total of 27 pounds. (Source)

Dylan Scott at Vox:

With the failure by Republicans in Congress to repeal Obamacare this year, President Trump is taking matters into his own hands, as he prepares to sign an executive order Thursday that targets the health care law.

Trump is asking federal agencies to look for ways to expand the use of association health plans, groups of small businesses that pool together to buy health insurance, and to broaden the definition of short-term insurance, which is exempt from the Affordable Care Act’s rules, administration officials said.

The ultimate impact will depend on any new regulations written as a result of the order, but overall, Trump’s action could make cheaper plans with skimpier benefits more available — and experts worry that will damage the ACA’s marketplaces.

“The president still firmly believes that Congress must act to repeal and replace Obamacare, but before that can be done, this administration must act to provide relief,” Andrew Bremberg, who oversees domestic policy at the White House, told reporters Thursday morning. “We expect these policy changes to potentially benefit tens of millions of Americans over time.”

Policy experts warn that together, these changes could represent a serious threat to Obamacare: Trump wants to open more loopholes for more people to buy insurance outside the health care law’s markets, which experts anticipate would destabilize the market for customers who are left behind with higher premiums and fewer insurers.

The fear is that Trump’s action could lead to many association health plans being exempted from core Obamacare requirements like the coverage of certain essential health benefits. It could also potentially allow some individuals to join these plans too, which could hurt the individual insurance marketplaces by drawing younger and healthier people away from them. In much the same way, short-term insurance could also take healthier people out of the law’s markets.

The effect won’t be immediate: Administration officials said they didn’t expect any new regulations to be implemented before the end of the year. But Trump’s order does present a long-term risk to the ACA.

“The clear intent of the executive order is to create a parallel insurance market exempt from many of the consumer protections in the Affordable Care Act,” Larry Levitt at the Kaiser Family Foundation told me. “This has the potential to siphon off healthy people with skinnier benefits and cheaper premiums, leaving behind a sicker pool of people under ACA plans.”

Black Coffee Will Save You

The taste of black coffee at first can be initimadating, but don’t be frightened. Once you realize what black coffee can do for you, it will definitely change your perception of it. Eventually you will overlook the bitter taste because the taste ends up becoming tolerable. TRUST ME! I’ve definitely been there. I drink black coffee because of the health benefits. I’ve acquired the taste but I’ve also appreciated what it does for the body in terms of the mobilization of waste and the mind by enabling individuals to be more cognitively alert ☕️👍🏼
