This^ again, in a bit…
All the exercises are unweighted, apart from the hip-thrusts… will add them back at some point, in the near future.
_
Today… weighted bis tris and shrugs, so a very short session.
Bought this… to make bathing a relaxing pleasure, not a very painful chore, or… why are baths so go’damn hard… every twist and turn, causing traumatic amounts of pain - no wonder I dislike(d) bathing so much, but not now I’ve got this[size=85]v[/size] and can’t wait to use it. #excited
20 minutes max! or you’ll start developing vesicles…

Same.
…someone’s sock-puppet, I would imagine.
The pretend-Christian troll’s, perhaps… or an ex forum-member.

This week’s onwards, edited/upgraded weekly workout… now, a 3-day split.
…might move work-out 2, to Fridays… as lower-body is the most exhaustative day.
_
My first (and probably only) workout of the week… just a squat push-ups-calf-raises and hip-thrusts kinda day [a 12 x 3 sets, quadruple-set]
…might throw in a few minutes of abs, too.
…first workout in almost 2 weeks… this^ again.
Well that felt good!
Today’s workout, shrugs and upper-limbs… might throw-in some obliques.
_
Another day, another work-out… core/lumbar, obliques
_
Me, after completing any task on my to-do list…
[minus the cigarette, and not on workout days 
]

When anyone rings the doorbell, and 30 seconds later when you open the front door there’s nobody there. Fuming! 
…talk about a short-attention-span. 
It’s like everything is good about christianity but the christianity part. It’s a tried and true culture that produces solid, healthy families that are generally productive, law abiding contributors to their society.
It’s not complicated at all. U go to school and get an education. U get your first job at the lawn and garden store when you’re sixteen and get your worker’s permit. The old man gets u a starter car in his name and let’s u make payments on it. You learn responsibility, and u enjoy the rewards of your hard work. You discuss college and career options during dinner. That kinda thing. Good solid family foundation with world’s greatest dad at the head of the table. U go to church often and u meet Rebecca in her dress at one of the events. She will end up being the mother of your childrens one day when u take the seat at the head of your table. An honest, hard working christian man who loves and takes care of his family.
If u just follow the middle class christian script, everything tends to work out. Stay in school, develop a good work ethic, don’t be a ho, start a family, forgive your enemies and give to the needy once in a while.
I mean that’s the blueprint for a well oiled society if u wanna look at numbers and quality of life. So long as you’ve experienced an industrial revolution as a country, u got the means and economy to produce a very strong single family unit middle working class if u got the christianity to indoctrinate with.
But what’s so fucked up is this: does it take such a fantastic and often terrifying story as the bible to induce in people whatever it is that makes them so modest, honest and hard working? I say no. But it can and does. It’s the cash value of being terrorized by christianity that we’re noting. Whatever bizarre substance christianity may be, it seems to work pretty damn good. It’s that protestant work ethic trip your homeboy weber was on.
But can we keep it. I say no. It’s gonna fade away over a long period of time in gradual stages. Gen z’s kid’s kid’s kids will live in an atmosphere where christian material is almost totally absent except as a historical relic. Like how we view egyptian animism today. Something childishly optimistic at best, utterly preposterous at worst.
By then, physics and cosmology might also solve and/or explain a lotta shit that’s a mystery or a theoretical problem right now, too. U gotta keep that in mind.
Brian, whatever happened to studying Kierkegaard & actually reading the source material (the Bible)?
Keep on truckin.
Also this. Sometime… i dunno how far in the future… the number of mothers going through pregnancy and giving natural child birth will drastically drop. They’ll have synthetic wombs that grow the childrens and u can come pick em up when they’re done. Nine months or less or it’s free, like a pizza.
This way women won’t have to suffer nine months of hell and losing their hot bods after pregnancy or whatever.
There will be, however, a marginalized number of futuristic hippy conservatives who will protest and insist that the special spiritual bond between the baby and the baby moms is sacred and that the baby gotta be a part of the baby moms when it grow.
Liberal women will be like nah I’m good I’ll take the baby-to-go, thx.
Once u have scientists explaining how your baby is gonna be the same as it would have been had u had em in your womb for nine months cuz he’s got your DNA and it duddint matter where or in what u grow em in, women are gonna be like ‘i mean it’s totally like still my baby tho, right?’ and Dr. Middleton will be like ‘yes Mrs. Williams i assure your baby develops no differently in our incubators. We’ve delivered over three thousand successful babies since the beginning of the project in 2084. All of them genetically consistent with and identical to the parents’ and then Mrs. Williams will be like ‘oh wow… oh, okay’ and then she’ll look over reassuringly to her husband john sitting beside her. He’ll hesitate and aks a few more not entirely relevant or critically important questions like he’s just feelin the doc out… tryna see if he’d bullshit em about sumthin like this just to get his business. Mrs. Williams will then surreptitiously side with the doc when he’s answering John’s seemingly useless questions to reinforce John’s trust in the doc so he’ll get on with it and sign the fuckin papers already becuz we’ve been in here for two hours almost, john.
In any case this is gonna be another challenge for traditional christianity. Big changes in roles and family member funktions are comin.
Look at these roses i got a picture of. Aren’t they just beautiful? Would anyone like to write a poem to go with the image? I think that would be just fine.
Roses are pink and yellow
Anyone that messes with my mom
Is gonna eat shit on my lawn
Until they black & blue

Kickorguard was a healthy neurotic philosopher intellectual who’s obsession with christianity made for the possiblity of some really beast mode writing and insight. Now I’ve never read a single work by Kickorguard completely, but I’ve spent countless hours reading bits of his work.
He’s a hard one to pin down becuz in order to determine whether his cynicism and withdrawal is a healthy arrogance and pride (a pathos of distance) or a symptom of a genuinely tormented soul who is unable to tolerate the hard truths and so resigns into christian faith becuz there’s nothing else worth doing in a meaningless world, you’d have to hang out with him and get a feel for his stature and composure.
The bible, on the other hand. Nobody reads the bible bruh. Be sirius. If anything, u might read stuff about the bible, but very little before you’re like okay i get it… can we move on now? Kay. Great story tho.
So I’m into the water enhancer trend now and i buy em all the time. The ones with the caffeine and B vitamins. Aren’t they the greatest thing? Like i really do feel the effects of the stuff. U just put a little squirt in 8 ounces of water and u can’t overdo it becuz that shit is concentrated af.
B vitamins are not toxic so you need not worry about high doses of it. It’s easily metabolized and passed. But you’ll feel warm and flushed if u have to much at once.
But the Mio products are really quite brilliant. One tiny bottle will make a twelve pack of water bottles. Non perishable and u can fit one in your pocket.
vitalize with MiO. At supermarkets and stores near u.
A good indicator of a forum’s elan vital is how silent it becomes if and when somebody announces that god is dead. There are two types. One type loses all ballast and the other type becomes rowdy and loud as if having just been set free from a yoke or a curse or sumthin. It makes no sense. It’s like ‘hello unless there is god, everything is meaningless why the fuck are u all excited u retard?’
Why would u be happy that god wuz dead? Well unless u have some kind of metaphysically equivalent alternative to the general atheist materialist’s view that if god is dead, everything essentially sux.
