(Not AI) Things to do instead of Media and Social Media.

Challenge for you warrior: try getting off social media and news apps for one weekend. 💪🫵

I've been hooked on the information super highway since the 90ties. It was on car forums back then. The kids these days might not realize this because they grew up with the internet, but having interactive access to the world gave me a high as strong as a drug.

Forums were basic. Right now AI is being useful in order to get you hooked. Once it is unavoidable, it will be used to keep you engaged and modify your behavior like a lab rat in an experiment. Even if the alogorithm makes you psychotic. Which has happened to me. Micheal Jackson told us in a song: THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT US. There is More Honesty In Music Than In Newspapers.

Social media and news media has turned into ULTRA PROCESSED INFORMATION and it is personally ruining my mental health.

Here are some things you can do instead of wasting your limited time being alive glued to your screen:

Get YouTube Premium which includes YouTube Music, get some Earbuds or Headphones, and listen to music!

Watch the 100 best movies ever made. Preferable with friends... if you have friends.

Make some friends. Figure it out with your brain.

Go for a WALK. Go to the GYM. Do YouTube AEROBICS. Join a SPORTS club. I bought special earbuds that clip on my ear, and don't go into my ear canal. They allow me to listen to music on my walks while also hearing cars approach.

Make ART. Visit a MUSEUM.

You know what: FUCK THIS LIST. USE YOUR OWN BRAIN.

PUT DOWN YOUR FUCKING PHONE MONKEY.

peace

Reasons NOT To Subscribe To DeMorgen Newspaper.

Review of DeMorgen newspaper / news app. Review van DeMorgen krant / nieuws app. My apologies for this bleak post, but I want to warn people for their wallet and mental health. You won't find bad reviews because they get deleted. You can only review their app's functionality. You will find they won all sorts of awards for journalism. In my naivety I thought journalism meant facts. Their subscription deal is A SCAM. They don't tell you that you are on the hook for 3 years. That's hidden in the terms. And it takes just a few seconds to subscribe. I basically got scammed for about 600 EUROS. I keep downloading their app as a sunken cost fallacy, but it's bad for my mood and mental health. The first thing you will notice when you get your subscription: you get advertisements. That means you are the product they are selling. You will get push notifications sometimes 3 times per day with opinion pieces by immigrants about how evil white people are. The result is that you ...

Protein And Fiber Bomb That Is 5 Minutes Work.

The following is my ultimate Plant Based Hack: Simple Bean Soup. The outcome of 10 years of mistakes. I had to gain a lot of experience to end up with something very simple and easy. I lost over 30kg (66lbs) of FAT by adopting a Whole Foods Plant Based Diet and quitting alcohol. Without a medical intervention. Bean Soup makes healthy plant based living low effort. I always have this in the fridge, and it’s part of my daily routine. I learned from many thrown away Hello Fresh meal kits that elaborate cooking is a barrier for me. I decided not to go against my nature and make it easy on myself. !WARNING! Eating mostly whole plants is one of the best choices you can make to minimize the harm you do to our fellow animals, your body and the wildlife on this tiny dying planet. But you need to plan carefully and supplement. You need to eat a wide variety of Whole Grains, Legumes (Beans, Lentils), Dark Leafy Greens, Vegetables, Fruits, Nuts&Seeds, Herbs&Spices. You need to supplement. ...

Concise Guide To Eating Mostly Plants

A Plant Based Diet is not a Vegan Or Vegetarian Diet. On a Plant Based Diet you get most of your nutrients from plants but allow for a small amount of animal products. ❗️Don't get your nutrition advice from randos like me. Instead, for advice on eating Plants, check out this FREE website:  https://veganhealth.org/ DO NOT BELIEVE ANYTHING I WRITE.  I started writing this guide at the beginning of my journey. It's a mess, and I now know better. Especially when it comes to supplements. I now take a multivitamin that contains B12, D, Selenium, Iodine... and I take an Omega 3 algea supplement which Plant Eaters anecdotally need. I make sure there is always soup in the fridge that includes Beans or Lentils and Dark Leafy Greens. I still agree with a lot of this advice, but changed my mind on some of it. I advise you to read websites and books by qualified people like: Books: Vegan For Life, Nourish Subscribe to the newsletters of the websites: https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health...
