Topic	Andy Now Does Yet More Andy Nouns [ANDYMAN] Vol. 1: Self-deprecating, contained!
KujikawaRising 09/20/18 12:08:06 PM #134:	No gaming. `Weight loss:` 14000 steps yesterday. 1400 + 15300 + 11500 + 14000 = 42,200 The "step goal" feature on the thing I'm using through work is daily only. Daily step goals are stupid. Getting "10K a day" is bad because it doesn't allow your body a day of rest. There's a reason I do "70K a week" - that's the same amount of steps, but it lets me be a slug on Sundays. It's healthy to do that. The reason athletes hurt their legs so often (pulled hamstrings, torn ACLs, etc.) is because they're pushing themselves too damn hard. They need TWO days of rest a week to allow their body to compensate for their strenuous activity. Many of them don't realize that and pay for it. Me, I'm all about self-care. That's why I do the things I do, like taking Sundays to rest, using The Stick, getting a massage every 3-4 months, yoga, etc. The goal is to lose weight but not at expense of my well-being in other areas. (Also, we didn't go to that family reunion thing, obviously - my mom was NOT interested) `Song of the Day:` A little different route today. Boyz II Men - End of the Road https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDKO6XYXioc" data-time=" `Australian Survivor` More maddening stuff incoming! Episode 12. Okay, so the bullshit that was the first "swap" when it was a surprise that Tara wasn't voted out of the game and then they voted a second time was bad enough, but it was the ultimate payoff that makes it abhorrently unfair. Tara and Anneliese poisoned the entire Asaga tribe against A.K. - to the point that when A.K. ended up with Tara and an Asaga majority, there was NOTHING he could do to save himself. A.K. was also right that Tara shouldn't have even been there - she got voted out of the game. The intent was to remove her entirely and that she wasn't is unfair. And because of that twist and that plus a bad swap, A.K. got voted out at no fault of his own. And we have smug, narcissistic Tara agog about the entire thing, going so far to call it a "blindside" (it isn't - A.K. knew he was on the bottom and was fighting for his life). It's insulting to the game to have a waste of space like Tara outlast a strategically AND socially savvy player like A.K. , who did so many things right: He was self-aware of his earlier poor play. He picked up that Luke was playing him with ease. He saw right through Tara's stupid decision to act confident (how does that help? It makes A.K. more paranoid - she should act like she's going home!). He also knew the only person he could feasibly target was Tara. He knew he could get Sarah and he did (though she voted with majority). He also knew Odette was next to go if there wasn't a swap and tried but failed to get her on board. And he knew he had to charm everyone, but Tara's poison made it seem disingenuous even at the times he was being real. Meanwhile Tara is self-unaware, too clueless to realize that Ziggy and Jarrad liked A.K. as a meat shield, cocky AF, dumb to act confident when she should act scared, and just so... repulsive with her self-adoration. There's a reason she's the fans' most hated person on this cast...
