Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:
-
/c/TenForward@lemmy.world - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts

Your body is constantly afraid that it's going to starve to death at any moment, to the extent that it stockpiles fat to such a degree that you can die of too much fat stockpile. If you start getting exercise and burn some fat, your body will adjust to try and stockpile fat even harder, so you have to increase your exercise load to keep ahead of the system.
Pain has a emotional component. It's not enough that we are aware of damage being done to our body, but rather sometimes that awareness is so strong that it renders us incapable of defending or repairing ourselves. Meanwhile, any number of other animals can full-on get a major limb ripped right off and they just keep on keeping on like it's no big deal.
