Why is one wearing socks? Does that mean it's otherwise naked?

[–] Jerb322@lemmy.world 3 points 23 hours ago

Power pose.!.

Strenuous activity makes his feet sweat.

[–] naticus@lemmy.world 2 points 23 hours ago

That means one is nervous and considering running away.

It is not rod shaped. Although "bar" and "rod" can mean the same thing, they are not interchangeable in every circumstance.

The depicted shape could be called many names. prism. panel. wafer.

Rather than energy rod, it could be called a stratified calorie wafer.

I choose energy prism.

wasn't this guy exposed to be an anti-abortion christian, like, 6 years ago?

Did he use his platform for hate?

when confronted with it, he did openly pronounce it again, iirc. But I don't use any platform he uses so I can't source it rn, sorry.

still is, from what I know! He at least never apologized or changed course.

Yeah looking at his Wikipedia entry as well as his original tweet, he deffo supported his wife and the MarchForLife. Seemed like his response to the backlash was a sort of weasely "we have faith and believe separation of church and state is important" without addressing the actual problem. Not good.

Energy Rod!! I love that guy.

[–] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 9 points 1 day ago

I prefer an awakening liquid to an energy rod.

That is a Cliff bar and they are amazing but goddamnit they're expensive little fucks.

[–] TheTetrapod@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They're also basically rice krispie treats.

A little more expensive than that, but yeah. Plenty of no bake recipes and even boxed ones you can buy if you don't want to source protein powder. I made a tray of protein balls for the price of a single Cliff bar once, but they taste better with real honey, nuts, etc.
