have you ever wondered what the deal is with those nut sorting games because I did, and I also found out at the expense of my sanity

Hey, loving the show so far. That ending? Such a banger. Real quick though, I noticed my character has a lot of red spider lilies in the ending? I’m sure it’s nothing but everyone else has their stuff, and like bam, my character - just red spider lilies. Is there something you’re not telling me?
hi. I know I’ve been quiet on the writing front, but this may be the greatest thing I have ever written

A spotter has one job: protect the lifter. That’s it. When someone has over 700 pounds on their back, there is zero room for intentional interference. This could have ended a lot worse than a missed lift. She could have been seriously injured.
A white supremacist was trusted to spot at an IPF, International Powerlifting Federation, World Championship. Let that sink in. This wasn’t some local meet. This was the highest level of powerlifting in the world. The best of the best.
sorry. I’ve been trying to read books instead of post and I’ve read 29 books so far this year but the opinion slipped out
saw The Odyssey and I actually think they should let any little freak (respectfully) pervert the sacred texts or whatever if it continues to result in banger soundtracks

the bicep vanity project is a whole five years old now. it remains ongoing despite the horrors
I’m sorry everyone. I’m the one who put protein in all the food. I just got so unsustainably shredded, folks. It’s been awful. everyone asks me if I can “suplex a Honda fit” and I cry, because I can, but only because the pop tarts have protein in them and everything good turns to chalk in my mouth.
I don’t know how to use chatgpt etc but I imagine it’s going to a website and typing “oh no what groceries do I buy please tell me false god for I am so weak I cannot go on” as your brain atrophies and leaks out of your ears from disuse and the machine is like “buy eggs milk bread and a horse”

The fascist right is not being hypocritical on gun rights, this is the playbook. Everything is what they say it is the moment they say it. Fascism demands subservience to itself alone. They demand you accept they are the sole engine of truth making.
I really despise how much my tv tries to sell me gambling
