!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I’m sorry to read your comment. But I’m curious about why you despise vegetables and even hate tomatoes.
I wonder if it’s because you “learnt” to hate them or because your body refuses it. If it’s the first one, I’m sure you can also learn to appreciate it. Not all at once, not in one day, but little by little, it can truly change your life for good. It’s never too late (I’m 48 so I’m almost there with you).
I absolutely hated almost all vegetables and legumes when I was younger. After I started forcing myself to eat them regardless of my opinion - since they are indispensable - I found that I have been disliking them on a mental basis, and just simply eating them has undone my hatred for vegetables.
Rice, and simple carbohydrates in general, are debatably not healthy whatsoever, as they're processed more quickly into fat than they can be burned, leading to hunger reappearing earlier than it actually should. Fats and proteins take longer (I think) to be converted to raw energy, and so you don't get hungry as quickly, and gain less fat. Also in general if you don't eat any carbs, you'll fall into ketosis, and then your body can more easily burn your body fat when you're hungry.
who is “they” in this context
Try black lentils. Also, use more salt in your cooking.
