This dude is making some great Shut the Fuck Up Karen GAINZZZ:

A British journalist admits that the plan to reduce "global warming" will involve taking coercive measures to force people to eat less meat.
A journalist has said what many of us have been suspecting for some time now: that governments -- in this case the British government specifically -- will have to start forcing people to eat less red meat if it is to meet its ambitious climate change targets.
Christopher Snowdon, who heads the Lifestyle Economics unit at London's Institute of Economic Affairs, was appearing on the newly launched GB News network when he uttered the words many of us have been waiting to hear spoken openly.
'The political reality is that Boris Johnson is going to have to stop advising people to fly less and eat less red meat and find ways of forcing people,' Snowdon said.
Unspecified 'draconian actions' and 'meat taxes' were mentioned.
Come and take it.
Woman loses 149 pounds by walking.
Well, and some dieting.
When her colleagues started a walking challenge, Roxanne Mullenberg decided to participate. At the time, it seemed like the medication for her under-active thyroid was finally working correctly and she wanted to cultivate healthy behaviors to try to lose some weight. When she started the step challenge in February 2020, she weighed 358 pounds.
"I tried different things as far as trying to better my own habits," Mullenberg, 42, an assistant vice president and project manager at a bank in Fargo, North Dakota, told TODAY. "I was like, 'This will be great for me. I'll start doing this. It'll give me a different motivation, a different challenge and accountability.'"
...
A month into her step challenge, COVID-19 caused the country to shut down and her life changed dramatically. Suddenly, Mullenberg was working from home and helping her son, Ryan, 11, with home school. Exercise then gave her a chance to reflect and she found herself walking even further.
"The walks became such a good mental break and stress release," she said. "It became both a physical and mental benefit when I would do the walks, which was great. Then I'd bring my child out and obviously we'd both have these fun adventures roaming around parks."
Mullenberg was walking three miles but soon increased it to four. As she began feeling better with the increased activity, she noticed she wasn't losing weight and decided to examine her eating habits.
And then she threw some dieting into the mix.
She also had a thyroid that wasn't working right and got medication for that.
Still:
149 pounds since February 2020. That's a ton.
I've continued walking six days a week, usually from 3 to 5 miles. My GAINZZZ improved this past week. I lost about three pounds. Not bad.
What about yo' GAINZZZ?
Any READINGZZZ? PROJECTZZZ? PLANZZZ?
