Does anyone know when we even start to feel like a grow up? I’m sure I’ll look back at my 40s and wince.

Ah I see. Yep. And it’s easier to see it as you get older.

Didn’t want to miss out on the chance to diss myself though. I was as dumb as a rock back then. And in many ways, still am.

Er no. My progeny is a decade ahead of where I was at his age. Smarter and more self assured and stable.

He’s not dumber. But I’ve realised I am.

I don’t know Kid Rock songs at all but it made me think of this absolute classic: https://youtu.be/MyMta4RIrlg

That’s a hell of a load bearing tailgate

Not just America, if (without WHO funding) entirely containable diseases are no longer contained.

And we’ll have a few fat, rich, old narcissists, and a staggeringly stupid western voting populace (both sides of the Atlantic), to thank for it.

Had an interesting chat with a chill taxi driver about this. He’d been in the business almost 30 years and says he sees people who don’t adopt this philosophy actually have health issues, and quit.

Piggybacking onto this one, but with a specific ask: same as OP but:

• limited mobility
• spinal issues, no to low impact on spine
• aimed at reducing belly fat, and
• increasing muscles supporting spine eg core
• upper body strength as a stretch objective.

Genuine ask. Appreciate any advice.

Oh subtle. Nice.

I’ve seen this before with people but don’t understand. Why would you not take the labels off your clothes/caps? Are they going to return them?

If that’s not a copypasta then you are amazing.

And with Sechstein.

At least you haven’t been defeeted.

Absolutely! If it’s already broken, and you fail to fix it, what have you lost? Go for it (but pls do your research and be careful. Don’t go poking about inside appliances with big capacitors, for example, like microwave ovens).

What a perfect expression she has in that thumbnail.

“And all who believed were together and had all things in common. And they were selling their possessions and belongings and distributing the proceeds to all, as any had need. And day by day, attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes, they received their food with glad and generous hearts, praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved.” ‭‭Acts‬ ‭2‬:‭44‬-‭47‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Sounds pretty radically left to me.

Tubthumping.

Metalheads I’ve known 20yrs ago vs now? Still generally lovely, kind and welcoming people. They can look fierce but I’d go to them in a crisis.

What a gorgeous shot. Perfect.

I have to agree here.

You need a sense check on your comms.

Possible Autism or not. You alluded to it in another comment about you possibly being mistaken for AI in your letters.

Sadly, masking may need to be a strategy you play here, for a while.
