Self-indulgence could be classified as hedonism. How is exercising hedonistic behavior? Even if you exercise solely to make yourself happy, your loved ones would benefit from your improved behavior.
i would only make that classification if pleasure is all you care about—you're not necessarily a hedonist just because you engage in self-indulgent behavior every once in a while

that doesn't make it intelligent behavior, i just think hedonism is taking it to another extreme that i'm not trying to argue

so how is your behavior tied to your physical well-being, how does exercise improve it, and how would your loved ones benefit from it
Well it’s a fact that exercise improves mental health. But if you’re going to exercise, be bitter while you’re doing it, and then when you accomplish whatever goal you set out to accomplish use it to try and deny science, you’re just wasting your life. Everyone will know you’re lying and chalk it up to you just being you. Just like what happened with all that anime you watched, you ended up enjoying various shows.
do you think anomalies are unscientific or something

also thank you for admitting that exercise is a waste of life lmao
Well that’s the thing, you want to be an anomaly. You self-indulge in trying to be (in your mind, not in actually reality) superior to others.
and that's bad?
I would say yes, you would say no. The point is, what makes what you do any better or worse than exercising for a six pack?
you don't think there's ANYTHING better that i could be doing than getting a six pack?

i know you're just trying to say that i'm not doing any of those things, but you already know that's just ad hominem
That’s exactly what I’m saying. There’s plenty of things you could be doing instead of getting a six pack out of spite.
i thought exercise was incontrovertibly good for me, and is guaranteed to improve my mental health

Universal Studios just announced that they will be reopening their parks early June, which means the other two of the big three should be quick to follow in the near future. Speaking about one of them, Disney has still been posting on all their blogs certain status updates on those who are still working. The animal husbandry team has posted two new births in the Animal Kingdom park, both species are endangered so it's pretty amazing (and super cute) to see new life come out of all this.

Baby Babirusa piglet named Kirana.

And last month, a mountain zebra foal named Asha.

Chillin on my savings until a job starts rehiring. They cancelled the position right when they would've started hiring because of Covid so I was bummed out. But I'm doing well in college, straight A's and I graduate next year!

Life is good.

We're reopening the parks July 11 and I got my haircut today. Contrary to what some people are desperate to believe, the price of my haircut total was $15; no ones 97 year old grandmother with terminal butt cancer and hasn't left her house in twenty years died because of my haircut.

Unless you have a magical Covid crystal ball, it's going to be very hard to determine that and if indeed you passed anything on to anyone.

I find it weird how people still think viruses are transmitted by sneezing directly into someone's face. You could have been asymptomatic and been a spreader just by walking within 6 feet of someone. Authorities didn't just invent social distancing because they wanted to fuck with your freedumbs.

Hair salons have been open since Mother's Day and Florida has not had an explosion of cases. We have been on the downward end of the curve for a while now and the point of the lock down was never to drop infection rates to zero; it was to "flatten the curve" as everyone likes to keep saying. So when are we going to get this massive explosion of new cases that's going to make the state of Florida look foolish? Another two weeks? Yeah, I haven't heard that one before.

I would also like to point out Das that I am by no means passive about it. I have repeatedly told my coworkers before we shut down that if I had gotten the Kung Flu while we were still open I would make sure to come to work anyways and cough on everything.

Flattening the curve does not mean a return to normality. It means that hospitals have the proper capacity to accommodate patients. South Korea and Ontario have reduced measures and recently seen a big spike in covid cases. If you think the end is in sight you haven't been paying attention.

I swear, America is a third world country with a Gucci belt. "100,000 deaths? Irrelevant, so long as I can CONSOOM product and move on to next CONSOOMABLE product."

It's funny how you bring up other nations, considering Japan has had no lock down, completely bungled their handling of the virus and they're not any worse off than most countries. Also could you please come up with new material other than forced soijack memes? You're getting awfully stale.

besides, America is fucking huge. We were always going to have a raw death toll only surpassed by china.

But you look at statistics per capita and we're doing better than Sweden and Belgium and almost twice as good as the UK.

the hospital my parents work at has 0 corona patients in ICU and the lowest amount in general since this all started, to the point people are now going back to working in other departments because they're not needed, which is pretty nice

China isn't even in the top 10 in respect to death toll. Europe as a continent has a combined death toll pretty much on par with the US, a singular country. What is the comparison you're trying to make here?

Masks are a common sight during the winter flu season, and in spring among people with hay fever. The custom of bowing rather than shaking hands or hugging, generally high standards of personal hygiene, and the removal of shoes when entering homes have all been held up as possible explanations for Japan’s low infection rate.

Next time pick a better example.

Next time pick a better example.
From your own article:

Quote
But Japan’s version of “lockdown” – requests to avoid unnecessary outings, work from home and observe social distancing – came across as a timid response to a situation that risked spiraling out of control. The dispatch of two reusable masks to every household was met with derision, as people posted photographs on social media of the small, and in some cases dirty, “Abenomasks” – a play on the leader’s economic policy dubbed “Abenomics”.
Quote
Abe’s performance throughout the crisis has been uneven, according to Tobias Harris, an expert on Japanese politics at Teneo consultancy. “I think he has struggled to stay ahead of events since the beginning, has not communicated effectively, and has been poorly served by his lieutenants.”
Quote
The Abe administration has gained few political dividends for its response; instead, most plaudits have gone to the quiet determination shown by the public, armed with virus-challenging habits formed long before the pandemic.
Quote
“I don’t think the falling number of infections is due to government policies,” said Ryuji Koike, the assistant director of Tokyo Medical and Dental university hospital. “I think it looks like Japan is doing well thanks to things that can’t be measured, like daily habits and ‘Japanese behaviour’.”
Quote
Japan’s incremental exit from the state of emergency continues. Last week, Abe ended the measure in 39 prefectures, adding another three this week. Tokyo and four other prefectures could join them as early as Monday, according to media reports.

You're wrong, and that's okay. Things will go back to normal before the end of the year, most people are finally starting to grow some common sense. In your own words: cope.

Don't forget that a large number of those US numbers are from NYC where they have incredibly strict lock down measures.
