You can absolutely minimize it, especially for someone untrained. It called a body recomp.

A very small calorie surplus of 100-200 calories a day, 0.7 - 1 gram/lb protein, 7-9 hours of sleep, and training with progressive overload 3-4 days a week and she'll put on loads of muscle with minimal fat gain for 6+ months easily. (Anecdotally, I have personally done this with great results, but there's loads of research to back it up as well.)

At a certain point she'll have to up the calories, and accept some fat increase to see more gains, but beginner gains are real. Beginners can see gains even on a defecit if they're overweight.

It typically has to be within 3 scores, or with the potential tying run on deck.

But you can also get a save if you pitch the final 3 innings of a game without giving up the lead regardless of the score difference. That's how Wes Littleton got the save that game despite entering with a score of 11-3 (that ballooned to 30-3.)

Dude joining

I'm still lost on the girlfriend/wife thing

Could you explain?

Beardmanta

Lmao which one is it?

You're playing both sides of the argument.

This isn't the gotcha you think it is. "The allies fought Germany before Nazis were even a thing in world war 1."

The PLO used south Lebanon as a staging ground for constant attacks into israel from the late 1960's to 1982.

The PLO carried out cross-border raids, took hostages, and fired Katyusha rockets and artillery into northern Israeli towns. Notable factions within the PLO also engaged in high-profile international hijackings and massacres targeting Israelis such as the munich Olympic massacre.

Just say you want Israel obliterated off the map.

We all know that's what tankies and far right want.

The only source I've found for this is some very extreme Palestinian site.

It's just a picture of graves with zero context.

For all we know this could be in a different city or perpetuated by Jordanian troops, who did desecrate thousands of Jewish graves and destroyed all the ancient synagogues and holy places in 1967.

The irony of Turkey accusing anyone of genocide while standing on the mass graves of 1.5 million Armenians.

They still won't admit the genocide happened let alone do any reparations.

Beardmanta

Just googled it... No results

It's called mutually assured destruction.

Every single nuclear armed power has something similar but because it's Israel reddit mouth breathers think they're cooking by bringing it up as some sort of gotcha.

Have none of you ever opened a history book in your life? It's not bad because it's not democracy. It's bad because they're authoritarians who slaughter their citizens like cattle. China has more executions each year than the rest of the globe combined. I've no issue with communist countries like Laos, or Vietnam because they don't do shit like that.

Google "Great Leap Forward."

Google "Uyghurs genocide."

Google "Tiananmen square."

Google "Chinese mass surveillance."

Google "Chinese Execution vans."

Google "Chinese environmental damage."

As long as you're cool with all that, China is really great.

Or maybe they're targeting the bridge they took out in the video?

When Sadam killed 500,000-1,000,000 kurds I'm sure you were outraged and protesting in the streets...

Beardmanta

Type of guy who'd be opposed to stopping Germany in WW2 because people might die.

Beardmanta

Yes but political backlash became too big and they didn't finish the job.

An armed Hezbollah can't continue to exist

Beardmanta

Al Jazeera is so blatant.

Even Fox/CNN hide their biases better.

You can be against the ear, but the angle of defending the IRCG is such a bad look for reddit.

They systemically beat and rape women, gun down protestors, and execute people for the crime of not following Islam.

Iran has been weeks away from nukes since the 1990s… thirty years ago! There’s a nice clip combining all the times Netanyahu has said “Iran is weeks away from nuclear weapons” with timestamps.

One of the most ridiculous reddit arguments, ignoring the fact that Iran has been building a stockpile or "partially" enriched uranium for years that can be quickly turned into weapons grade uranium. Yes they are very close to multiple nuclear bombs any time they wish to complete the last steps of refinement. Something they started doing the last year.

Samson option is literally just mutually assured destruction. "If we go down we're taking you with us." Every single nuclear armed country has a similar doctrine. The UK has its letter of last resort. France has it's Force de dissuasion. Idk why you'd be surprised Israel has one. It's the only thing that prevented Russia and the US from nuking each other during the cold war

What other nuclear powers DON'T have is a rabidly insane jihadists government screaming death to Jews and death to America every chance they get and they typically don't repeatedly show lack of ability to cooperate with other countries like Iran has. They don't enforce sharia law and hang protesters.

The closest thing to that is North Korea which is a fucking disaster. We don't need a second one.

A nuke in the hands of a proxy of Iran like Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthies or any other jihadists group who routinely practice suicide bombing is about as close to the end of the world as can be imagined.

Black is probably superior hence their survival

That really sucks, I'm sorry :/

"John Wilks Booth assassinated Abraham Lincoln and then opened fire with a machine gun and killed 30 people in Ford theater."

"No thats not true, he only killed Abraham Lincoln"

The most drastic estimates have it at around 70,000 casualties but pop off king.
