By this definition, performing a genocide is art.

Edit: I have been informed by replies, thank you.

By this definition, performing a genocide can be art.

Also, this post was art because I pissed off a bunch of people to the point that they were compelled to respond.

You really should be providing a source when you make these kinds of claims:

Joel Myers' Wikipedia article is pretty damning. He does sound like an asshole.

Myers faced criticism in 2005 when he supported the National Weather Service Duties Act of 2005, a bill ... that would have prohibited the National Weather Service from publishing weather data to the public when private-sector entities, such as AccuWeather, perform the same function commercially.

Fruit, vegetables, whole grains, exercise, some sunlight, some socialisation, an easy creative hobby.

You're right, it is easier to list those things.

Not according to latest studies, there is no safe level of processed meat consumption.

Cold cuts are often processed, rather than delivered raw.

Secondary News Article: https://www.sciencealert.com/massive-review-finds-no-safe-level-of-processed-meat-consumption

Original Study: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-025-03775-8

consuming processed meat (at 0.6–57 g d−1) was associated with at least an 11% average increase in type 2 diabetes risk and a 7% (at 0.78–55 g d−1) increase in colorectal cancer risk.

So eating a gram of processed meat per day would significantly increase chances of type 2 diabetes, and colorectal cancer.

1 gram ≃ 0.03 ounces (British imperial units)

Conversely, they welcomed automation that would free up time for higher-value work (69.4%), reduce task repetitiveness (46.6%), and improve the quality of their work (46.6%). Specifically, they welcomed automation that might include scheduling client appointments, maintaining files of information, or rectifying errors in records.

The study also explored preferences regarding the level of AI involvement. Most respondents favored a collaborative approach, with 45.2% desiring an equal partnership between workers and AI and 35.6% seeking human oversight at critical junctures. This indicates a clear resistance to fully automated systems, the scholars noted.

The Mad Lib type of writing.

"Today I learned that [enter service of company], they [enter bonus service/ product offered]."

It walks, swims and quacks like an ad.

Not sure why you're being downvoted, this is clearly an ad.

This is the same logic as "The big red sticker says I'm saving money if I buy this thing."

Want to actually save money? Don't spend it at all.

Also, if you think Prime day somehow hurts their bottom line, you're misinformed.

27% of 8 hours is approximately 2 hours and 10 minutes. That's about right.
