And your 40s are for getting totally fucking jacked!
Is it better to work out in the morning or at night?
The best time to work out is when you’ll actually keep at it consistently. That’s it; that’s the real answer.
So Russia is going to illegally ‘annex’ part of Ukraine and then look like absolute ass clowns when they’re unable to defend those same occupied territories. “This territory is now part of Russia but we’re incapable of controlling it,” is a weird strategy.

It’s been done; saw my first one today:
Putin's announced mobilization of 300,000 "reservists" was jaw-dropping to me this morning, but not for the reason some might suspect.

One thing I like about Ireland is there seems to be more inter generational integration. Old folks, young folks sharing spaces pic.twitter.com/Ih24MtYI56

In the US that would be considered “creepy” and “sus.”
Do you really want to know how Iranian morality police killed Mahsa Amini 22 year old woman? Watch this video and do not allow anyone to normalize compulsory hijab and morality police.

The idea that the hijab is “feminist” is falling apart utterly and that is nice to see.
The more I play with AI image generation the more convinced I am that it is akin to photography. You move around in latent space by using keywords (or vector transformations, if you are so inclined), you find a nice spot, and you take a snap. pic.twitter.com/977vvETJmr

Starbucks says it is ending sick pay for #COVID19 starting October 2, ending paid time off for COVID illness, self-isolation and vaccine side effects.
The average Starbucks barista salary is about $34,000 — less than 2% of what the CEO makes ($20.4 million last year). pic.twitter.com/MfDyz2xMUU
