We need a path to permanently removing money from politics, with harsh penalties for violations. “Nuclear harsh.”
That will change the dynamics of incentives for public office, alone solving most if not all issues.
One data point doesn’t make a standard.
In general, most CrossFit coaches were well intentioned, but cared more about a rapid pace through reps, rather than the safety of the members.
Weightlifting in CrossFit is better understood as a subtly different exercise. Traditional Weightlifting is a maximum effort exercise, and purely by human physiological limits it has to be modified for CrossFit. If sub-max effort shortcuts were taught, and technical qualification requirements were mandated, the injury rate would be greatly reduced.
I was lucky to learn Olympic Weightlifting in the 90s from a world class coach, but that was just because I was in the right place at the right time.
I’m thankful for the exposure CrossFit brought to the sport, because there’s lifting platforms everywhere now. However, most CrossFit coaches are horrible in regard to providing necessary technique instruction to avoid injury.
One small example that frequently results in injury: you do not “catch” the bar when performing a clean on the palms of your hands. You catch the bar across your deltoids and clavicle.
At a CrossFit gym where I weightlifted for 3 years, I knew of five people needing surgery to repair damage to their wrists from catching a clean improperly on the palms of their hands. They could have just been taught proper technique from the start, but most CrossFit gyms are more concerned with pushing you to your limit immediately, not with finding your long-term potential and avoiding injury.
Hopefully it’s improved, but based on the rapid downward popularity trend, I’d assume they have killed off participants through attrition.
Because fascism.
Odd how nobody talks much about the Zionists showing up after the Balfour Declaration in 1917 and finding ways to expand their territory at the expense of Palestinians. Often using violent means.
Or the opposite. I now actively avoid Starbucks due to their behavior towards unions. When I do go, I always ask the employees if they have unionized yet.

It’s a whack-a-mole of services which restream content, but the piracy services are also subscription based.
What about the small, local services that are just trying to pay the broadcast production bills and make a little cash to become viable businesses?
Fuck those people too?
Because these piracy services also affect them. These services restream the content taking away revenue from the small streaming services. In many cases we’re talking about volumes less than 100. So these restream services pop up, illegally use trademarks and copyrighted materials to advertise, and can reduce volumes enough that they are no longer viable.
Sometimes these things affect regular people trying to make life work too. Not just billionaire assholes who legitimately deserve the criticism.
It’s beyond me why Americans, who scream about government taxation, can’t see how large corporations essentially have added a hidden, ever increasing line item tax to their paychecks to extract wealth.
And then we fawn over billionaires donating their money to causes we perceive as beneficial to society - they’re just returning stolen money without interest or penalty, which could have been better used when money was actually earned.
This is what Texans vote for right?
Lower regulations and minimal worker rights?
That’s why Daddy Musk set up shop there.
The Democrats who voted against expelling were rationally defending due process.
If Jeff Jackson (NC) votes for something, it’s generally sound logic.
It’s purely anecdotal, but go to a small town in Iowa and you may notice something a little unexpected - there’s seemingly a larger than normal population of gay and transgender people.
Again, anecdotal, but I visit there frequently for work. My gut tells me the crop treatments are screwing with hormones…unless there’s some other explanation.

“You want to bang?”
“Is it bang time?”
Any number of variations with “bang” included.
The government is people. So all you’re saying is people, by nature, will always become corrupt.
Isn’t that convenient?
NOT ENOUGH USE OF REPEATED PUNCTUATION!!!
Creativity takes inspiration. Somebody has to manifest the stepping stones on the path to a masterpiece. The magic of the internet is we get to watch it happen. We’ll rarely hear Beethoven’s garbage or see Michelangelo’s screw ups, but whoever did this…we get to see the stepping stone.
