Hey. Thanks for posting.
As you say. I’d read some of this before…
But… you were a powerlifter?
The health and fitness thread here is interesting
Do you still lift?

Yes. I don’t lift anymore. I don’t want to do that ever again. It was a trauma response. I felt like if I could be seen as a man by a powerlifting community, I could pass anywhere and have a group of guys ready to kill anyone who tried to hurt me. I still think everyone from there would take a bat to the face for me. Even the guy who called me fat!
They taught me concepts about sustainable health tho and I credit that community with helping me break free from anorexia and other disordered eating.
I would have to get Kameron to tell you any more than that. I don’t remember very much about that period but I did write a lot about it as it happened because it’s always been so hard for us to keep track of things.

I took a walk through a soccer field with my dog today.

Why did I only find out about the existence of ratchet belts this month?

Yep, just placed an order for the updated part. I’m pretty disappointed with the complete lack of direct communication - they know I ordered this bike, they know which model I have, so they should be able to email me or put a pop up on the screen.
I love their content, but the company is a mess.

Padma Lakshmi is 52 years old and will apparently be in the upcoming Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue.
I’ve been watching Top Chef for as long as I can remember and she is literally not aging. She seems awesome, and she’s one of those celebrities where I’ll be fairly crushed if she turns out to be a bad person.

Well, I don’t know about bad person for sure. But apparently she is off the charts on the stuck-up celebrity scale. Seems highly correlated with bad person, but not a lock.
I’d also never heard of this, looked it up, ordered one, and have now worn it.
Safe to say this is the most significant invention of our time, well ahead of the internet, the cell phone, and CRISPR.

There’s a flock of Canada geese in my neighborhood. I collect breadcrumbs and offcuts in my freezer and I’ll feed them sometimes. Well, one of the gals just hatched goslings. I’d think, just in terms of evolutionary stuff, that the folks would be super nice and share with the kids. But that doesn’t happen. In fact the parents are really dickish about it. I just find that curious.
Geese are the biggest asshole animals on the planet. I am not surprised at all.

Humans had to do a lot of sharing to survive. Shaming assholes keeps them from getting out of hand, but isn’t entirely effective.
