r @recombobulating.bsky.social · 15hI didn't say it had no effect. Again this supports my point that it has a small effect. The glucose spike is about 10% higher with oat flour than it is with oat flakes. Both are still relatively small spikes. The product under discussion is a mixture of both of these - and isn't on most UPF lists. 010
r @recombobulating.bsky.social · 15hit could only do that if it did change the molecular structure 110
r @recombobulating.bsky.social · 15hwhy are you responding as if he said it only exists in one country? we can all read the post you're replying to and that isn't what it says 080
r @recombobulating.bsky.social · 16hthat doesn't contradict my point grinding grains does make them slightly easier to digest but it does not turn a complex carb into a simple sugar and as with cooking with heat people have been doing it for thousands of years it certainly isn't new 130
r @recombobulating.bsky.social · 16hno the complex carbs in oats are different from simple sugars at a molecular level you cannot turn one into the other by chopping it into smaller pieces they don't make blades that small 120
r @recombobulating.bsky.social · 17hI don't live in a place where people need a time machine in order to remember things that happened in the past And I didn't say it was a golden rule It wouldn't apply if the political establishment was popular with the public 000
r @recombobulating.bsky.social · 18hno it's just a post from someone who can remember things that happened more than a month ago it's a bit concerning if you think that would require the ability to time travel 100
r @recombobulating.bsky.social · 18hherbs and spices are often summarised as 'flavours' on labels, it's very rare to fully itemise them 030
r @recombobulating.bsky.social · 18hthe process of cooking food with heat breaks down cell walls and means you can absorb more calories from it that's why people started doing it that doesn't mean it's unhealthy and tainted and wrong 130
r @recombobulating.bsky.social · 18hdaring to contradict establishment dogma seems to be working out pretty well for them so far while the centrist approach has led to the most unpopular PM in polling history 100
r @recombobulating.bsky.social · 18hhow does that relate to what I said? you seem to have taken my post quite personally for some reason but I wasn't replying to you 100
r @recombobulating.bsky.social · 19hbecoming more popular with the political establishment means becoming less popular with the public because the establishment isn't popular with the public hope this helps 110
r @recombobulating.bsky.social · 19hyou're still acting like Jewish people all share a hive mind and have the same opinion on this issue that's messed up 030
r @recombobulating.bsky.social · 19hMultiple British Jews have also spoken in support of it. No demographic is a monolith. It is dehumanising to try and use Jewish people as a rhetorical prop like this. You should own your opinions rather than trying to use others as a shield for them. 030
r @recombobulating.bsky.social · 19heveryone has ideological biases some people think they're only found in their political out group but that's also an ideological bias in itself 110
Reposted by rr @recombobulating.bsky.social · 25/09/2026neurodiversity is an existential threat to the establishment because it is a frame where all human minds are considered to be human minds rather than one where only those who are willing and able to pretend to be 'rational actors' get to count as people 29830
r @recombobulating.bsky.social · 04/10/2026the two 'sides' here are liberals and libertarians (ie classical liberals) that's an incredibly narrow political spectrum 0160
r @recombobulating.bsky.social · 04/10/2026makes about as much sense as saying you need to stop eating food because you have to gain weight 050
r @recombobulating.bsky.social · 04/10/2026yeah it's a bias against humanity from those who demand to be separated from and placed above it 020

Reposted by rDr Alex Fitzpatrick @animalarchaeology.com · 30/09/2026The rhetoric of ‘perfection’ is so telling here, just completely minimises the harm being done RIGHT NOW to trans people and immigrants and other vulnerable people.

r @recombobulating.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I think sometimes people think they can/do understand the world in the same way that LLMs are claimed to, as a collection of decontextualised tokens of information, and that means they take it even more personally when someone says that isn't really how it works in humans in practice. 020
