Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

No it's not the sardines, it's just that my body is used to eating full meals. And a small can of sardines is just not enough to give me the nutrients and energy that I usually ingest at that time of the day. So in short, by starving myself I'm also starving my brain.
IANADr. But it is my understanding that the fish would have been the ONLY thing feeding your brain while your body was shutting down to conserve its resources. Sadly, you weren't eating ENOUGH. And to eat enough you probably would have hit that lunch budget you were trying to save in the first place. So, yes. Starving yourself while trying to do the right thing at the same time. There has to be a Greek tragedy about this somewhere. Or a maudlin French poem. Or an O Henry story.
