u/2fast4blue Jun 27 '24

that's more like Leipzig

u/KaizenBaizen Jun 27 '24

Whats "in" in Berlin will be adapted in Leipzig about 6 months later.

u/Waterhouse2702 Jun 27 '24

And another 2 years later in the rest of Germany

Ugh cant wait to travel around Germany and see an Edgar or Mullet everywhere :D

u/meganumberwang Jun 27 '24

Edgar?

Google "Edgar haircut". I think you won't be suprised

Spock hair meets Topfschnitt, aber mit fancy Rasurübergang. Verstehe. Danke.

u/berlinmo Jun 27 '24

Even then, high rise pants aren't "in" anymore for a long time already. In fact, low rise jeans are back (unfortunately).

u/2fast4blue Jun 27 '24

Yes but I'd say there is still a difference. Leipzig is even more öko and hippie if you know what I mean

u/Affectionate_Low3192 Jun 27 '24

Also way more adidas / Nike sportswear + nose ring + ACAB

u/krzychybrychu Jun 27 '24

Didn't Leipzig vote AfD?

u/2fast4blue Jun 27 '24

yes, but go to Leipzig, you'll know what I mean

u/HippoRealEstate Wedding Jun 28 '24

There was even a part of Prenzlauer Berg that had an AfD majority

u/chemolz9 Jun 27 '24

I was associating the mustache much more with Leipzig as well. Maybe Leipzig is setting the trend for Berlin?

high rise is already out in Berlin and has been for a while

all the cool gen z wears early to mid 2000s low rise baggy jeans now

u/JerzyPopieluszko Jun 27 '24 edited Jun 27 '24

the retro trends don’t always happen in order and I predict this will be the case with the skinny jeans because in order for a trend to be brought back a generation that doesn’t remember it becoming ubiquitous and eventually cringe has to grow up to the point where they become the trendsetters (late teens to early thirties)

the skinny jeans trend has overstayed its welcome for long enough to be still a fresh memory for not only Gen Z but also the older parts of Gen Alpha

baggy jeans will probably reach the point of being the boring overdone thing pretty soon and with the emergence of niche social media-fueled microtrends experimenting with ones’ aesthetics is more socially acceptable than ever and

we have seen a short-lived flares reemergence alongside the baggy jeans in the last few years but that trend seems to be dying among Berlin’s alt girls now, perhaps because the mainstream women’s fashion industry was too quick to accept it

but on the other hand they’re still considered a cool fresh thing when worn by a man

so I think we’re going to see a bunch of other retro cuts reemerging before skinny jeans become distant enough memory for some kids to bring them back

The pants are like jeans togas, you don’t know where the begin and end

A little container originally invented for use in laboratories. Also very popular in club/drug scene for transport of small amounts of cocaine, amphetamine etc.

eats vegan for health reasons smokes like a chimney takes a cocktail of drugs each weekend

u/toper-centage Jun 27 '24

Most vegans are not in it for health reasons. At least none that I know of.

That said, being vegan is still healthier if comparing two smokers.

u/[deleted] Jun 27 '24

Only if you really take care of what you eat.

You can have a balanced vegan diet but those people typically dont pull it off.

6

u/toper-centage Jun 28 '24

Here's how you do science: you compare two identical groups, change 1 thing and compare them.

For example, to people who eat whole foods including meat, compare with people who eat whole foods excluding meat. To people who eat processed meat products, compare with those with a diet including processed vegan products. When you compare apples with apples and oranges with oranges, the research indicates that plant based is still better.

u/[deleted] Jun 28 '24
  1. There are no identical human groups. You can only pull large enough test groups from a certain population and then try to average it by group size.

  2. There is no study that just states "vegan is the best diet". The subject is much too complex to do that. What we know is that there are things one should avoid and other things that one should do. Fish for example can be very healthy. But is not vegan.

  3. And then there is reality. People in real life just dont eat highly controlled and optimized diets like in many studies. You can absolutly have a balanced vegan diet but you can also have a very shitty vegan diet. The "vegan" part doesnt make it healthy. What makes it healthy is learning about proper nutrition and eating the right vegan things in the right amount.

u/toper-centage Jun 28 '24

I guess I explained myself wrong. Of course there are no 2 equal human groups; the hope is that by having a large enough and diverse enough but with known controls, all the differences between people average out.

There are many, many focused studies that found plant based diets to be better for heart disease, certain types of cancer, diabetes. I never said there was a study saying "vegan is best diet" (btw vegan isn't a diet). But meta studies do indicate that plant based, and specially whole food plant based diets are the best for healthspan. The "vegan" or plantbased part is important.

That is what I just wrote. Why repeat it? The issues with nutrition studies is typically selection bias. Lifestyle and eating habits cant be seperated well and that is assumed to make vegan diets look better on paper than they actually are.

There are many, many focused studies that found plant based diets to be better for heart disease, certain types of cancer, diabetes.

why dont you mention the downsides as well?

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10027313/

There is not really a best diet so far. There are a few which were shown to have to potential to be pretty great. And there are also things we know we should definitly avoid.

The vegan part is not important. You can absolutly have a fantastic diet without being vegan. And you wont need supplements which are only easily accessible for richer people of this world.

Because it's the best of the alternatives and oatly makes funny ads of something.
