    I mean it just sounds to me like they’re insisting that getting up early and running isn’t good for your physical and mental health when it demonstrably is and modeled that on a narrow class of “apex predators” that they half-paid attention to in a middle school biology class.

    Kind of just reads like unironic copium about a sedentary lifestyle. If it’s a joke, then I mean, the basis of the joke doesn’t check out either.


    Edit: Oops, I was right.

      But it’s obviously a joke. (at least to me)

      That means that the text in no way represents anyone’s opinion, it’s sole purpose is entertainment. If anything, it’s a jab at the people that claim to do things because of the idiotic and meaningless “alpha” label, not an endorsement of sloth.

        I mean I’ll grant that it’s about as pseudoscientific as “alpha”, so turnabout is fair play.
