I mean, if oat milk is going to make you less healthy, why are we concerned about the water usage if it’s still a better alternative to cows milk on both counts?
There’s no industrial water usage in sticks I find when out walking. That doesn’t mean I’m going to put them in my cereal (intentional hyperbole to make the point).
Just look out that oat is a carb. If you’re having oat milk with cereal then you’re having carb with carb.
This is another straw on the camels back to svrewing up your sugar levels and potentially giving you diabetes.
I’m no super healthy guy, but a friend of mine had this issue where they were on the high glucose side due to their diet, this was one of the things they needed to cut out.
Almond milk I think was the better alternative.
What worked best for me was fitting eating around my weekly routine.
I have a standard 5 days work, 2 days weekend.
In general, the weekend is for fun so I applied that to food as well.
The week is for healthy eating. No snacks, bed early to be well rested. The weekend is for blowing off steam and eating treat foods.
For me, this meant that I reduced my cravings as I wasn’t eating unhealthily all week. By the time the weekend rolls around now I don’t want that unhealthy food that much. Note. It’s taken a while to get to this point but my weight has now been consistently low for over 2 years.
I think the main thing is whatever you find that works for you, it has to become something you can sustain.

I wonder if it’s calling communists ‘commies’ that some may take offense to.
To my ear, this is sort of a slur in that I’ve only really ever heard it when some army guy is shouting ‘god damn commies’ or the like.
Just a disclaimer, I don’t have particularly strong feelings for either a communist or capatalist structure. I think shitty people tend to gather power so most of us are just taken advantage of in either scenario.
I’m curious, what’s your concern with subscribing to both? I had the same thought when I switched and then thought “is this just a knee jerk reaction? I can’t think of a decent reason why it’s that annoying when they both appear in my subs feed anyway”
I’m interested to hear why others might not like it as that might be what I’m thinking without realising.
To use a different analogy from the commonly used email one, think of each instance as a country.
You are in your country, but that doesn’t mean you can’t hear about stuff from other countries.
Sometimes though, a country does something bad and becomes embargoed by your country. If this happens you can’t hear about stuff from the country your country is embargoing.
By default you can hear about stuff from all countries (federation)
A country can become embargoed (defederation)
In each country, there are towns. And towns in different countries can have the same name. When you’re looking at all the countries together this means you might want to listen to London UK and London USA.
A town can be considered a community in Lemmy, which is a subreddit in Reddit.
I just made this up so there’s likely to be some flaw in the analogy but I think it helps give you a good sense.
As you’re on lemmy.ml
This is something I think a lot of people trip up on. This community is hosted there but the user isn’t on that instane - so they would not be supported the instance they actually on… Unless I’ve missed something?
It’s a coup against the military leaders i think, not the russian government.

Jeez man it’s just some light hearted fun.
