This seems great but wouldn’t this just create a moat to becoming a DMA gatekeeper and entrench the current players?


Any idea how much muscle vs fat you lost on your fasts?


I did a DEXA scan at the end only so I don’t know the before accurately. I have some measurements from my Scale on muscle mass which shows a drop of about 2 kgs. Overall I lost about 30-35 lbs of weight. The measurements from the scale should be taken with a grain of salt though because they are based on impedance and formulas that are related to BMI


It’s pretty clear that Mullenweg is having a mental health crisis, not a hissy fit.

Let’s not take pleasure in someone destroying their life because they don’t have the support they need.


I believe you are committing the no true Scotsman fallacy, by claiming Christianity is a belief in Christ as lord.

I myself was raised in a Christian organization that did not believe Christ was lord, but rather a person sent by god to show us by example, how to be, spiritually, in order to enter the kingdom of heaven. They also don’t believe in the holy trinity.

So do consider that you do not speak for all Christian’s and not all Christian’s hold the same beliefs.


A better word is Disciple, this was the original usage of the term and a description which your group would seem to match. Of course, all of the original disciples considered Jesus to be their Lord and this terminology was used extensively throughout both the new and old testaments. Regardless, your case is more fitting the other thread than this one. That’s about folks who call themselves Christian despite not being particularly interested in Christ. This is about the claim that somehow being a “good guy” makes one Christian. (Or even is Christianity)


It goes to the cost of living.



A dysfunctional government is more easily exploited by the rich. No one is less functional to be President than Trump.


I would argue it’s not just the economy, but capitalism in general is no longer serving the public well, and hasn’t for a long time. It is corrupting our public institutions, it is creating poverty and suffering, and it abuses power to exploit people. Capitalism is abusive, and very often the things that we aren’t supposed to talk about are what we need to talk about the most.


Schumpeter called it the eroding foundation of Capitalism. Its not technically Capitalism, as the system, at fault though. It's interesting. Feel free to explore it more. Or perhaps you already do


I agree, Capitalism is not working any longer. Maybe changing it would be a start in the right direction (Not that it would ever happen)


Agreed and Trump is not going to do it, he's going to try and make the richer richer just like he did with his tax cuts last time
