An article can have a main subject, with an obvious and blatant reference to another subject, EdgeMaster.

Yeah, I know. It seems like the main subject was two people were shot and killed and a slight reference to corona along with despite ongoing warning against large gatherings.

I think I may have spotted one just now, since you apparently need help understanding that taking a mask off involves touching it and most people, shockingly, can't wash their hands in their cars, so some people will just wait until they get home.

Crazy how you cant touch your mask to take it off, yet that doesnt deter you from touching a bunch of shit to put in your shopping cart.

Just in case the takeaway from above part wasnt clear, more people touch stuff you put in your shopping cart than your own mask or anything in your car.

Do you think Republicans actively trying to suppress voting rights has anything to do with it? Also, do you think Republicans defending confederate flag wavers and confederate monuments has anything do with it?

I think most people are too far removed to know what really goes on outside very basic things:

the media hates trump, the media discredits Tara Reade and protects Biden, the Democrats fuck over their good candidates, the dems try to go various lengths for voter fraud because they fucked anyone on their team who talked about policies who people would vote for, etc.

the fact that any bills are written to be confusing in such a way that it is very hard to tell which option you should pick. Like the bill and agree with it? Well yes might not be the right answer.

People only believe what they want to hear, good luck swaying opinions, so reality is it doesnt matter. Many people vote for who the tv tells them to, or because of identity politics and do very little of their own thinking.

So to answer your question, no, probably not. Its more of a lack of hindsight to think well fuck, shit still sucks, they didnt keep their promise on shit not sucking, and things didnt change, maybe Ill vote for the other team next time. Both candidates are generally shit anyways.

They really don't like it when people "disrespect" their country, but actively disobey stay-at-home orders from their own government.

And what makes it even crazier is that the person currently in office is the guy they voted for so they can't even make the argument that he's not their President.

What is going on

You can be patriotic regardless of your political ideology.

Gonna assume because youre asking this question you dont have a strong grasp on the English language, so here to let you know that conservative is more about having a hands off government and protecting individuals rights (hence why its called conservative, kinda like what cautious means) and they arent eager to have a big brother government with false promises of many goodies in exchange for their rights and freedoms.

Prior military training gets you ready for a harder regiment. It's the same with any job really. If you start from the bottom in one job, you can enter similar jobs at a higher level as you accumulate experience. If you just plainly enter the marines, you can prosper, but your not going to have as easy of a job of it as someone entering from another branch of the military.

Someone entering just the Marines will take years to get to get the discipline and knowledge to progress further, compared to say.... someone who was in a position in the army for many years used to some form of training.

It's not to say you can't do it. You certainly can, there are exceptions to every rule. If I were to make a comparison to something I'm slightly familiar with, video games. You can immediately go out and play Touhou, one of the harder bullet hell games out there, but you'd have a better chance at success if you had some experience with games like Raiden or Jamestown.

I meant more like why would you ever say it may take many many years to get to the next level, if you get to the next level.

I dont think you understand how ranking works in the US military. You are E2 out of basic assuming you dont fuck up really hard, for every branch. You should be E4-E5 by the end of your first enlistment, from there things slow down but not before.

You also seem to think marines are special forces... which isnt correct. Every branch has different jobs, and different schools to go to, depending on what you enjoy and what type of job you want and your asvab scores youd do a bit of homework and figure out where to go. The navy has the best firefighting program for example, go airforce if you dont like sleeping in dirt and dont mind two mandatory showers a day or you want a medical type job (corpsman in the navy is also good), pick infantry in the marines if you wanna see combat, etc. being a cook in the army or navy isnt gonna help you be a better cook in the marines lol.

As for entering the marines, anyone could probably enter, though you'd have an easier time if you start with a branch like the Army or Navy first. You can certainly enter, but your starting from rock bottom first, and it may take many many years to even get to the next level, if you get to the next level.

Problem is they dont always have the funding or are otherwise incapable of beating the democrats and republicans these days.

It has kind of devolved into if you cant beat them, join them but even then that doesnt always work out, recent example being the Democrats fucking over any of their good candidates, like Gabbard, Yang and Sanders.

The last 3rd party candidate that had any real momentum was Ralph Nader in the 2000 election.

Absolutely. Prices for college were already highway robbery and a fucked up game of well the gov/private banks keeps giving loans so lets raise tuition, college keeps raising tuition so lets loan more money at predatory interest rates

$10k a year to do horseshit online homework and no real involvement with any professors or anyone who could further your career.

As a college student, online classes are nowhere near as good as in-person. Mizzou is planning on reopening too.

There are definitely worse states but that still means students are spending $28k-$40k for a college education on tuition alone. Insane.

Thats on the lower range of things. Graduated $35k in the hole and did pretty well. Its easy to get $100k in loans if going to med or law school or you really managed to fuck up your loan money.

It costs $7-$10k a year just to sign up and take 4-5 classes per semester. Student loans can be used on anything related so youre gonna have to factor in rent and other necessities for several years too. Working full time in school is a terrible idea, you are likely working a shit pay job, because you dont have a degree yet... and 40 hours a week is asking to fuck your grades up. Realistically if you dont have your parents paying for everything, youll be $35-$50k in debt at the end and work 10-15hrs per week for beer money.

The only popular exercise I won't touch is deadlifts. I've known too many people who hurt their back doing them, even people with normally great form. It's just too risky to me.

Checking in. Had my back slightly rounded doing stiff legged deadlifts, pulled something and deadlifts and cobra hurt like a bitch. Started doing weighed pull ups because they didnt hurt and never looked back.

Dealifts are the most common injury exercise and bench you can guillotine yourself if youre an idiot. Most other exercises require you to really fuck up and do it very wrong to get a crippling injury... like locking out your knees on leg press.

My arms can only go as far back as the ground during the pulling motion. Felt like I was cheating myself. Anyone know more about ground benching and whether its worth it? Ive been doing pyramid pushups as a substitute

You arent cheating yourself, benching from the floor just takes your shoulders out of the equation. As far as form, try to squeeze your headphone cable in between your pecs. Doesnt really work, but do it right and your arms raise up naturally.

Well my 2.5bw deadlift gave me a refrigerator body and I don't give a shit how much I can lift. Much happier doing pullups and dips

Deadlifts are good in the beginning. Ended up getting a minor injury (didnt fuck anything up too bad nor need surgery) a few years back, switched to weighted pull ups and never looked back.

Yeah, I liked it (and thought I looked good on it >_>) but it's a bit long in the tooth.

I like a lot of the fundamental ideas though and think squats and DLs will always be beneficial for their effect on the CNS and growth hormone levels, co-ordination etc., but these days I'm more likely to recommend something like Greyskull LP to a beginner

Any routine that incorporates compound lifts is going to be half decent. Its not so much growth hormone levels, effect on CNS or anything like that as much as it is just getting enough stimulus to break down and rebuild muscle. Things like leg extensions wont ever build the mass squats will, same goes for shoulder press vs lat raises, etc. Being an iso champ or hopping around from machine to machine is gonna end up with a beginner spinning their wheels and having huge development flaws and weak points.

I think ice cream fitness 5x5 is a good routine for beginners although Im not a fan of the guy who made it for many reasons lol. Once you get some decent strength you can start doing more volume and stuff like 4 sets of 15-20 squats at 225lb.

Its not really an american thing. The USA is huge, bigger than the EU as Im sure you are aware. These things are not typical for the USA but typical for any shithole city in the state of Michigan. As Im sure you can imagine, Michigan (particularly Flint and Detroit) is near the bottom on the list of places you would want to live in the USA.

Yes struggling to lose weight as in lbs

But I've basically shed all of my fat. Like my wife says it is a huge difference. Which means if I'm staying the same weight then that has to mean I'm replacing fat with muscle. Working great for me :)

I have done every nutrition plan known to man so luckily for me I'm pretty in tune with how my body reacts. So far, one meal a day is treating it well.

If you dont have abs then you arent lean, and each percent of body fat is roughly 2-3lbs. Also takes quite a bit longer for your body to build new muscle than it does to lose fat...

it was less of the one meal a day thing and more that your diet consists of salami, hamburgers and little Debbie snacks... if youve tried every nutrition plan known to man Id think youd realize there are far more optimal ways to make progress than eating salami all day or having a burger and half a little Debbie snack... but Im not here to rag on you. Let me know how it works out I guess.

Btw I definitely feel this, pretty much the same timeline too. Tbh I feel like the online fitness community and I guess I would call it ecosystem are way better than they were when I was really into lifting before, like 2009-2014 ish.



Need to know where to go. Getbig was very lively back in the late 2000s up until about 2015.

Personally, Im doing alright. Gyms have been closed for a good 6 weeks where Im at. Can only do so much at home. Not regressing but not making progress very quickly either Kinda got a case of the fuck its and just been eating around maintence with the gym being closed.

The same can be said for any open forum online. Reddit is perfectly fine as a news congregate as long as you as an individual user dont use it merely to reinforce your own beliefs. The comments section are going to be what they are. Same can be said for CE. Just because we have differing views doesnt mean were some beacon of impartiality. We just have two echo chambers yelling at each other instead of one coddling each other. Same can be said for almost every other comment section on the internet.

True its just that reddit seems particularly awful in that regard. Every board or forum has it so own subculture to some extent but maybe Im just naive as Ive been part of some forums where theres not that every outside opinion or method is wrong circle jerk.

Imagine going to reddit for any reason other than trolling.

Unfortunately this. So many subreddits where people are just not very knowledgeable or just parrot shitty advice for upvotes.

Reddit is a place where if it doesnt align with what Ive heard, its wrong mentality thrives. Not even worth a discussion most of the time.

Was a good game, but been probably 10 years since Ive played it. People were pissed that the 360 version was basically the trial version and were sold an unfinished game.

Vesperia was good, Yuri was a nice change from many protagonists in jRPGs. I think its def a bit more weeaboo ish than some of the other Tales games and couldve done without all the vocab words and cringe dialog. Then again idk basically every Tales game is like that (Graces F was absolutely fucking terrible, makes me want to skip every cut scene) and if Phantasia and Symphonia just spoiled me.

Probably around 17-18. I can go without them if need be but some I enjoy the taste.

Not worries about health problems either. People say that but its incredibly ignorant and just plain stupid. They are no worse than soda.

Yikes, the reply someone gives when they are stunned by the logic in someone elses explanation and have no way to counter it, but are hesitant to admit to a loss.

Cop was placed on modified duty which means the department sees he did nothing wrong but just did that to shut the public up so protests and riots dont start, the cop will just be watching netflix for two weeks then he will be back on the street. The guy will most likely sue the cop and the nypd and theyll give him $10,000 and be done with it. The situation started because the first guy in the video getting arrested was drinking.
its so bizarre how some people think its okay to threaten a cop then when the cop deals with it people cry about it.

Good for him. The guy who got arrested wont be getting $10k lol. The city will tell him get fucked and he still needs to pay his court fees.

Absolutely wild how people dont understand that many people would hit you if you approached them with clenched fists and an aggressive attitude. Funny how some people who dont put up with that bullshit, arent shy of physical confrontation and would hit you back, sometimes pick law enforcement as a career.

didnt watch with sound on, couldnt see the guy the cop was pointing the taser at, but first impression it was already a heated incident, cop shouldnt have pointed the taser at him (often easier to work with the public while you arent threatening them...) but guy deserved getting his ass beat. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

I dont know. My old neighborhood was a nice, quiet one. No coyotes or any type of predator animal. Not much traffic. Chill neighbors. We had a big yard. It was a nice suburb. As mentioned, my first cat contracted feline leukemia from another cat.

Then my brother brought home another cat a few years later that he also let outside. He wouldnt venture far. Hed always come home the same day. Until one day he didnt. I went around looking for him and asking people around. Some guy said he saw him and fed him granola. He seemed very nervous when I asked him about the cat. To this day, I think he took him. Who feeds granola to a cat? He was a year old. Then years later, my brother moved out and got yet another cat and tried to keep him indoors. One day, the cat escaped through the front door and he never saw him again. That one was about 3 or 4.

So not much luck for us with cats being outdoors. Even in a neighborhood with no coyotes/wildlife. And theres no way to avoid shitty animal abusers. They can be anywhere.

Had a reply but this archaic website had to reload and fucked it up, so just gonna say Im not sure why tf someone would feed a cat granola but theres plenty of stupid people who wouldnt know cats dont eat granola

The argument still stands that you're letting an apex predator roam free and massacre local wildlife. By your own admission. Do tell how you know your cat isn't killing any endangered species.

Rofl. My cat being an apex predator. This was in a state where alligators eat small children. You wont be happy with my answer but gonna go out on a limb here and say my cats werent killing any endangered species because moles and garden snakes arent endangered.

I'm guessing these guys suck at interviewing, because notice how they never get callbacks for their "practice" interviews? Lol.

I'm kidding anyways they are full of shit and don't actually do this

That and its for piddly piss ass jobs like Dollar Store Manager.

Applying for any big kid, fully functioning adult job is often 2-3 interviews and assuming you already have one of these jobs and your applying for one of these jobs, not Dollar Store Manager, then its a great way to burn bridges and really cut your options short in your industry.

Not to mention the time spent getting on planes and gigantic waste of money it is just for interview practice.

its one thing if you take a day off your job once a month to fuck around and apply and interview at places like Burger King, Kinkos, and Dollar Tree but thats also incredibly stupid and a massive waste of time.

I guess what Im getting at is whoever said they commonly practice interviewing is full of shit, but if they arent well then they arent actually getting any useful experience for jobs that pay a living wage.
