‘..the default setting for #Australia’s #political #elites will remain #conservative and #restrictive. That will come as a cost to us and, ultimately, them’

One of the main reasons why I haven't fully embraced a different social platform from FB (and why I never got on with Twitter) is the restrictive character limit.
Screw that.

High Starch Diet: Don't Get Caught on the Blood Sugar Rollercoaster In today's episode we're taking a critical look at the High Starch Diet, an eating pattern promoting 70-90% of calories from starches like potatoes, rice, and corn while strictly limiting fats and proteins. Proponents claim miraculous weight loss and disease reversal. However, mounting evidence suggests this extreme approach creates a blood sugar rollercoaster, leading to chronic hyperinsulinemia and increased risk of metabolic syndrome and Type 2 diabetes. We examine the unspoken dangers, including anti-nutrients that block mineral absorption and critical nutrient deficiencies like B12 and Omega-3s, which are essentially devoid in plant foods. Find out why this restrictive fad is a risky bet not worth taking. All research and studies can be found here: https://foodnourish.net/high-starch-diet/

#Fed's own modeling suggests that its policy is still moderately #restrictive relative to where long-run neutral rates should be, mainly b/c #inflation is still above target, the jobless rate is near historic lows, chart @reutersmiked.bsky.social

Recently spent some time in a Lucifer chair and it was a great experience. I really enjoy very restrictive scenes and this worked really well. Need to find more like this to play soon and maybe add in additional toys to increase the fun!

#ECB - In this landscape, fixating on whether the stance should be qualified as #restrictive risks keeping attention on the #Rstar galaxy when our gaze should focus on the inflation horizon, chart #FabioPanetta @financialtimes.com www.ft.com/content/4434...

There's little doubt among #ECB members that current rates are now above that #neutral rate and still #restrictive, which is why there is likely to be agreement on another cut this week, chart @reutersmiked.bsky.social www.reuters.com/markets/rate...

#ECB - “The data are showing that the degree of restriction has come down significantly, up to a point where we can no longer say with confidence that our monetary policy is still #restrictive,” @isabelschnabel.bsky.social said, chart @financialtimes.com www.ft.com/content/5b6c...

#ECB is data-dependent. Yes.
But what is the data dependent on?
Mostly dependent on the #ECB, at least at the short end of the yield curve. A #restrictive monetary policy has a restrictive impact on the real economy. Period.

(ending 3-meeting streak of rate cuts)
With #Fed Funds rate now 100bps below its cycle peak, monetary policy, while still #restrictive, is closer to #neutral than it was just months ago, and there are few reasons to rush further cuts, notes @JPMorganAM

One of my doctoral trainees is undertaking research to better understand #restrictive #eating in autistic people. To read more see below:

Colour photo of a fit hairy guy tied tightly with juteropes. His wrists are tied together and the arms are tied to his chest in a snug roping. The structure doesn't only restrict his upper body movement, but a tight corset-like structure around his stomach hinders deep breathing. Something that he clearly is turned on by as the cock is visibly erect at the edge of the photo.

#LA had me longing for beautiful #men in my #juteropes such as the #attractive #fit @boundalphadog.bsky.social
