“…police confiscated a crossbow, a BB gun and various documents among other items, they added.”

Am I a joke to you?

So, so good.

The training program was 2x per week. For resistance training, they ran a set of machine based training, increasing resistance over time.

“3 sets of 10 repetitions as the main RT program on the following 6 weight-stack machines: leg curl, leg extension, arm curl, rowing, shoulder press, and chest press.”

As an old dude, over been wondering what I can do to made my skin tougher.

Cold fusion.

What can I say? A man of simple tastes.

I think Judaism is pretty interesting. No hell to speak of. Strong community focus. Traditions seem not-evil. Seems to foster a sense of curiosity and knowledge seeking. At least among those I know.

Education, specifically primary and secondary education for girls, is highly effective at reducing poverty. It deserves be highly prioritized for investment.

“Lost” seems a bit too much - how about unmanaged?

Hmm… I don’t know how to predict the impact on the U. S. Economy. Less capital in the market seems… Bad. But the sale of China owned assets to (U. S.) owners seems good?

Heh. They said tuber.

Back in the day, this job was a contract test position, or if you were lucky a technical trainer.

I am in a similar position, and really wishing I could go back to my technical training gig. My ideal would be contracting fall-to-spring, summers off - working in climate. Feels like there’s got to be some seasonal work in an industry growing so fast…

You’re not wrong - shit’s fucked up. But that’s not all - there is tremendous progress in the world, and significant change coming down the pike.

Why bother? Shape the change towards what’s good, and be kind like the good dude above said.

What a fucking awesome movie.

Glasses. My only super power is astigmatism - the contacts for it are horrible.

I went to get lasic - the dude said: you’ll need reading glasses, and maybe you’ll see a boarder. What?!? No thanks - if I need glasses sometimes it’s far better for me to use them all the time. That way I don’t lose them.

I do wish I could use sunglasses more easily, but…

Interesting - they sell not only repairable phones but OEM phones with the /e/ os (degoogled Android).

Don’t mind if I do! (Wearing my vintage utilikilt this very moment)
