/hot-takes[Hot-take] Acne is a signal of youth
When someone feel insecure about their acne, I always gently reminded that having acne is a sign that they're still young. Changing the framing for something that affects 1/3 of americans would lead to better mental health among young people with minimal downsides- a net posi
/diggslifeprotipsLPT: For one week, take a photo of everything you eat instead of counting calories or journaling
The simple act of photographing your food creates awareness and can naturally shift your choices without strict tracking. In fact that's a pretty popular belief for the purpose of calorie counting- to signal awareness of how much you're actually eating and how often. But count
/diggslifeprotipsLPT: Schedule send your emails to catch mistakes
Set a 2-5 minute delay in Gmail or Outlook so every message sits briefly before actually sending. That small buffer lets you catch wrong recipients, missing attachments, typos, or rethink a reply-all before it becomes permanent.
/diggslifeprotipsLPT: If someone says “I don’t know,” give them absurd options to react to
Some people struggle to estimate from scratch, but they’re good at correcting something wrong. Throw out exaggerated guesses (“10 years ago?” ) for a question like "when did we first meet?" or "when did this happen" , and they’ll often narrow it down by disagreeing. Honestly I
/diggslifeprotipsLPT: Plan your meals around a weekly theme to make grocery shopping easier
Instead of deciding every meal from scratch, pick a theme for the week like Japanese, comfort food, vegetarian, high-protein, or “sheet pan only.” It narrows your choices, simplifies your grocery list, and reduces decision fatigue without requiring strict meal prep. Obv not for
/hot-takes[hot-take] There’s nothing wrong with Tex mex (American “Mexican” food)
Is it authentic to have 4 cheese seasoning on ground beef and not a single bean in sight? Absolutely nots. Is it going to cause a heart attack with how much fats and carbs there are in a single meal? You bet it is But adoption of other cuisines to fit the dietary desires and a
/hot-takes[hot-take] Valentine’s Day breaks relationships - and that’s okay
So I saw some online blogs that Valentine’s Day is one of the most likely days for breakups to happen. And I think this is a good thing Valentine’s Day really stress tests broken or slumping relationships. It’s a day of joy for most couples but for a few it forces people to re
/hot-takes[hot-take] restuarant tipping is a tax on kindness
Before I get downvoted to oblivion I have worked in the restuarant industry for 7+ years including 3 years as a server, so this isn’t without merit. Talking with other coworkers the trend for tips is roughly 10% of customers don’t tip while 10-20% of customers have huge tips.
/hot-takes[hot-takes]if you’re going to be an asshole just admit it
People always be beating around the bush. Saying stuff about feeling uncomfortable or trying to rationalize themselves into doing. i hate how people act friendly and then they’re actually terrible people inside. I would rather take an honest villain than a hypocritical good guy
/hot-takes[hot-take]Engagement based communities > topics based for posters
As the mod of both Diggslife pro tips(150 members) and hot takes (20 members) I actually like hot takes a lot more. I don’t feel like I’m talking to the void, even when my views are flawed or deeply unpopular: I like the conversations. Whereas for topics ones like finance or
/hot-takes[hot-take] Dinner for breakfast should be more common
We have breakfast for dinner why not the opposite? Having roast beef and veggies should be normal at breakfast because you get your veggies and protein in, rather than just carbs. Furthermore in Asian countries there’s dinner like foods for breakfast. And when considering wha
/hot-takes[hot-take]real italian food in the US is overpriced
Was in the bay and saw that most Italian places are like $30-50 per meal on Google maps. This is absurd because I texted someone who lives in Italy and says Italian food is like a couple dollars a meal. Besides anecdotally, there should be no reason Italian food is expensive .
/hot-takes[hot-take] McDonald’s is awesome when traveling
Sometimes you just miss a bit of American flavor. And I think it’s perfect after a flight when you don’t want to experiment with local foods. It’s like choosing the C+ tier option of food, but the good thing is you expect it to be C+ tier and that it’s relatively cheap and f
/hot-takes[hot-take]- Justin’s stance on cross posting
I agree with Justin take of allowing cross posting but I think it should be encouraged even. I think cross posting should be allowed for Digg beta for four reasons 1)it encourages mods to engage communities outside of their own-everyone feels kinda insular rn posting within th
/askdiggI don’t understand the etiquette of cross posting on Digg
Some people like it some people don’t. What’s the consensus for different scenarios? Scenario 1-similar topics For instance, if you post the same thing on /finance and /money is that allowed, say if you’re the active member of /money Scenario 2-squatters Youre the only ac
/hot-takes[hot-take] Americans should try mayo on burgers
Mayo adds a creamy texture that prevents burgers from being dry in addition to fat content for that yummy tasteIt is not weird or strange to add mayo on a burger. And if you have chiptole sauce you're adding mayo with extra steps. What is chipotle sauce? A mix of spices and ketch
/diggslifeprotipsLPT: If you’re going to use drugs, test them for fentanyl
I’m not advocating drug use, but I know it happens and I would rather you be informed but fentanyl has shown up in substances like molly and even LSD- so it's pretty crazy to me that some people don't test their stuff before use. Paying for the tests is part of the safety measur
/diggslifeprotipsLPT: Don’t punish the behavior you want to see
If you want someone to repeat a behavior, respond positively when it happens instead of criticizing how rare or late it is. Use encouragement and small rewards to reinforce what you want more of, and save consequences for actions you actually want to discourage. Think about how u
/diggslifeprotipsLPT: If a stranger asks you to take their photo, count down from an absurdly high number to make them laugh
Start at something like 30 and keep snapping photos as you count - they'll laugh at like 27 and you’ll get a more natural shot

/hot-takes[hot-take] Gym Bro culture is dumb- so incredibly dumb
Yesterday during a workout club we had shirtless gym bros being very extra during the exercises I.e doing push ups during rest periods, grunting and being super loud, etc. so this post is my critique of that dumb culture Why I think it’s dumb - 1) you make people feel uncomf
/hot-takes/diggslifeprotipsLPT: Low end furniture all comes from the sample place- Asia (mainly china). So just buy the cheapest one
Buying a $20 chair from Amazon vs a $30 one from wayfair makes no difference. All youre paying for is style and selection- quality wise it’s the same Ive spoken to quite a few furniture companies and in the low end furniture selection it’s all an import game. No one is manufac

/diggslifeprotipsLPT: If you find a restaurant on Yelp, Google their phone number before calling
Yelp often replaces the real number with a tracked one that can charge the business a marketing fee, so calling the restaurant directly helps them avoid unnecessary costs
/diggslifeprotipsLPT: If you’re buying a car with cash, don’t mention it until the final out-the-door price is agreed on
Dealers often make money on financing, so revealing a cash purchase too early can reduce how much they’re willing to negotiate on the price @diggnabbit probably has a better take on this than me tho
