This makes sense. However, I'm not familiar with cannabis ingestion. I do know that smoking anything at all has increased negative risks.

I drink infrequently, but certainly more than I consume red meat. I might consume one steak a year, for example.

This is helpful.

Of course, it's focused on positive health benefits. I'm not actually looking to justify alcohol consumption as healthy. What I would honestly like to know is if it is proven to be unhealthy.

This article is the first time I've actually heard it associated with cancer risk. And that is with the presumption of frequent and excessive alcohol consumption.

I'm more concerned with low to moderate amounts and what the proven negative effects are. Is it worse than consuming red meat, carcinogen ingestion, microplastic congestion, and any number of other negative factors we ingest due to a bad diet (e.g. high cholesterol foods).

I'm gonna be honest. I need to do a lot more reading because I'm just more confused about alcohol consumption now.

I'd really like to better understand the direct health effects, like cancer mentioned in this article with low or moderate consumption.

"There is no safe level of alcohol consumption" isn't the most helpful piece of information. A lot of things we consume aren't completely safe. Whether it be carcinogens, red meat, or microplastics, we are always ingesting things that have both negative and positive effects.

Life is about managing risks. Eating fatty or high caloric foods, affects us a whole lot differently than eating whole foods, vegetables, and low carbs. Alcohol is just another item on the list of risks to manage.

How does low to moderate alcohol consumption compare to the risks associated with all the other sources of consumption?

Exactly my thought. WTH?

I watched this again recently. What a crazy episode. They shouldn't have lived. And that entity... WTH. Haha.

Yep. Makes sense.

This week at home, Clue was playing for the umpteenth time. Week before that, I am pretty sure I heard Back to the Future again.

I also have another category--introducing my kids to something from my childhood. Those can be hit or miss for them.

Thanks for the new inclusive naming.

Subscribed. Thank you.

I was hoping for a gender neutral variation.

I probably wouldn't either, but that would be pretty abnormal for me anyway. There's a very small subset of films that I watch more than once.

What kind of movies do you find yourself rewatching?

Sounds good. The boost app doesn't show active users in the community search, so I wasn't sure. Thanks.
