Starting to lift weights was the best decision I ever made and the best habit I’ve ever formed. Nagging aches and pains are basically a thing of the past. I’m way more useful, and my lower body, which was once withered and useless after a decade of working in an office, have been replaced with tree trunks and a dump-truck ass

A couple of the accessory benefits of this that in order to support my lifting progress I now eat way better, quit drinking and prioritize proper sleep. Overall it’s just been a huge increase in quality of life

Never turn your back to the bathroom door bro

You hit the nail on the head with this one

I switched from Reddit to Lemmy cold turkey, not willing to put up with that user hostile enshitification shiticane reddit was going through. There are a few communities that I really miss (/r/weightroom) but new Lemmy things (/c/tenforward) that give me joy. The Internet is getting pretty shitty but Lemmy is a great small corner of it that’s resistant to much of that fuckery

Strength training has such an incredible impact on your overall wellbeing everyone should incorporate it into their routine as much as possible

Damn I forgot all about this, that was a serious birdstrike

I haven’t played this since it was new, so my memory is a little foggy…

Something like “Temporarily inconvenienced billionaires” I think?

Thinking that there is no reason to take your shoes off is the most American thing in the world. There is poop, pee, puke, pollen, pollution, parvo and prions out there, among other things.

In Japan the entryway of a house is usually a step lower than the rest of the house. It is considered part of the outside, where the shoes stay, as well as all of the dirty things from the outside that are on the shoes. And symbolically, your troubles from the outside world are not brought into the house either. It’s a major faux pas to wear your shoes in the house past this step and bring all that shit inside. Interesting contrast

Shoes in the house

Purée them

I’m extremely consistent with my weightlifting program (1.5 years aww yeah!)

No doubt that… It’s been a long road

“I got mine, fuck you”

Looking back now there were some signs but boy that escalated quickly

Private equity/venture capitalists - they acquire unique brands and then extract all the value and enshitify them into the ground

Your take is so incredibly bad and you should feel bad and this is the most uncomfortable upvote
