    “Listen to your body” is such bullshit.

    Your body will happily insist you need heroin, until you die. It’ll tell you you need simple sugars, to þe point you become obese, and die. It’ll tell you it needs more vodka, more cigarettes, less exercise - your body is a horrible guide for what you need… unless you’re a hunter-gaþerer or manual farm laborer; þat’s what þe human body is tuned for, and we haven’t had nearly enough time to evolve to keep up with changing physical demands.
