hey, sorry, but i was wondering how you started on your fitness journey? i'm in a similar spot that you were two years ago and i want so badly to make the progress you have. i keep trying to begin but stopping because i get too scared or nervous, it's so daunting. do you have any good resources like websites/videos/youtube channels/blogs/etc.? i would really appreciate it. you look awesome and your post was super inspiring.
No apologies needed! It is pretty daunting man because it's getting into it for the long run.
Before I finally stuck with it I started and stopped several times in the past as well. If I were to give short tips personally on how to get started based on how I did:
-Start with the most simple thing for you and focus on building a habit out of it. Whatever that is, do it even if you don't want to. For me, I started with a scheduled walk around a trackfield (one full loop around the track) twice a week.
-Take the time to really outline your goals. Make sure to include short term goals and not only long term ones! It helps to say "I'm gonna walk for 5 minutes" and building up to the goal of "I'm gonna walk for 60 minutes", for example. Additional: having something visual can help with tracking it.
-Take it slow, and keep it simple. You're in this for the longhaul. And it will be very slow, but trust the progress and focus on the present
------------------------
As for resources, these are what I used (with some notes if it helps!)
Jeremy Either's Youtube Channel
Great source of information in regards to many things, particularly muscle building. I already had a base understanding of working out due to my sports background, but he's great for complete newbies and for anyone who needs a refresher. I still watch his stuff today but I don't rely on it nearly as much now that I have a better idea of what I'm doing.
Hybrid Calisthenics Youtube Channel
Fantastic channel for complete beginners and for people looking to get into the swing of things again, but at a slower rate. He focuses on being genuinely positive and encouraging finding ways that'll work specifically for you. That includes doing variations of exercises that may be too hard at first, like variations of the pushup, or pullup. Simple routines to get you started without destroying yourself. Very good channel, honestly.
Sean Nalewanyj Youtube Channel
He was the first fella I followed before I found Jeremy. His content is short, punctual, and easy to understand, so if you're looking for much quicker advice without the super detailed explanations his YT Shorts would be recommended. You'll likely have to do a little more research on your own to supplement the knowledge though. Like Jeremy I still watch his content.
Jeff Nippard Youtube Channel
His content is chocked full of research based shit and sometimes can be a tiiiiny bit much to follow, so not really something I'd recommend for beginning lifters. That said, his content in general is downright fascinating and if you're looking for in-depth analysis on the world of bodybuilding, powerlifting, and so on, he's my go-to.
Leanbeefpatty Youtube Channel
Her content is far more vlog-ish, but she gives solid advice while simultaneously just being fun to watch. I like how much more relaxed her stuff is as well, so if you're looking for something that isn't as potentially stressful I'd recommend her over anyone else listed.
Eugene Teo Youtube Channel
I've only just started watching him a couple of months ago but he's been a joy to listen to. His content is relatively chill but he gives indepth explanations without getting too science-y with them. He also promotes things other than fitness that'll help with your goals; stuff like mindful hobbies, healthy food-relation habits (for example: there's no such thing as a good or bad food), so on.
----------------
Other sources I've used to help educate myself the more I got into it include MyFitnessPal (I use it to count my calories and macros), Healthline, countless other youtubes I won't list just so I don't talk your ears off, and asking for tips from fellow gym goers who attend the same gym I do.
I hope these are of some help to you! And keep up the grind; take it one step at a time, and if you need any more advice you think I can help with I'm all ears. I'm rootin' for ya! :)

THE CABIN IN THE WOODS. [ 1 / 2 ] roleplay sentence starters of the 2011 film. feel free to edit according to scenario / pronouns. tw: violence, drugs, death, murder, horror, manipulation.
it's a nightmare.
oh, come on. it's a jinx.
seriously? i thought they were looking good.
it's not the first time it's come down to that.
we know what we're doing, [ name ].
you guys better not be messing around in there.
no, i hear what you're saying.
it's gonna be a long weekend if everyone's that puckered up.
are you even listening to me?
why haven't you stuck that asshole's picture on the dartboard yet?
hurry up with the "very fabulous." i'm getting insecure about it now.
no, it looks awesome. [ name ]'s gonna lose it.
i knew what i was getting into.
you know what you're getting into this weekend?
if you treat this like a setup, i'm gonna have no fun at all.
what if i get bored?
no more learning!
he's a sweet guy. and he's good with his hands.
no, who gave you these? who taught you about these?
i learned it from you, okay? i learned it from watching you!
you know, [ name ], it's a weekend, not an evacuation.
people in this town drive in a very counterintuitive manner.
do you wanna spend the weekend in jail?
cops will never pull over a man with a huge bong in his car. they fear this man. they know he sees further than they … and he will bind them with ancient logics.
what are you, stoned?
[ name ], you fetching minx! you have any food?
let's get this show on the road!
i hope this is the right road. it doesn't even show up on the gps.
go someplace for one goddamn weekend where they can't … globally position my ass, man.
is society crumbling, [ name ]?
society is binding. right? it's filling in the cracks with concrete. everything's filed or recorded or blogged, right? chips in our kids' heads so they won't get lost.
society needs to crumble. we're all just too chickenshit to let it.
i've missed your rants.
you will come to see things my way.
but sitterson does like to be called "ma'am." he'll also answer to "honey toes."
you clear on what's gonna be happening here?
did they tell you that being prepped is not the same as being prepared?
i'm thinking this thing doesn't take credit cards.
sign says "closed."
i seen plenty come and go.
you sassing me, boy?
you were rude to my friend.
you got enough to get you there. getting back … that's your concern.

one spider and i'm sleeping in the rambler.
come on. give me a hand.
everybody get your suits on. in 10 minutes, we're heading to the lake.
i was not informed there would be calisthenics.
that's just creepy.
i didn't even like hearing that.
thanks. for being decent.
well, i'll just be flattered and keep it to myself.
hey, let's not jump to any conclusions there.
ask me that again, only slower.
i'll see it when i believe it.
oh, christ. can you take a message?
to be honest, he's kind of freaking me out.
[ name ], baby, what's happening? how's the weather up top?
their blind eyes see nothing of the horrors to come.
am i on speakerphone?
that's rude. i don't know who's in the room.
i can't believe it. i did it again!
there's something else in the lake!
don't kill the gorgeous man! we're endangered!
they're practically giving their money away.
i'm not even sure we have one of these.
hey, what do you got?
they pick the same thing every year.
what do you want from me?
more than anything, i just want this moment to end.
seems a little harsh, doesn't it?
how can you wager on this when you control the outcome?
yeah, we rig the game as much as we need to.
oh, let's get this party started!
truth or dare?
i dare you to make out with … that moose, over there.
[ name ]… have you ever seen a moose before?
i'm living in a womb of reefer, leave me alone.
how did you know?
oh, my god. that is so sweet of you to say.
there's no need to huff and puff. i'll let you come in.
what's that supposed to mean?
i'm just skipping ahead.
what the hell was that?
the wind must've blown it open.
what do you think is down there?
why don't we find out?
how long do i have to stay down here?
sorry, i just scared myself.
i don't make up the rules.
oh, my god. look at all this.
i'm not sure it's awesome to be down here.
dude, seriously, your cousin is into some weird shit.
some of this stuff looks really old.
maybe we should go back upstairs.
i dare you all to go upstairs.
what is that?
jesus. can we not?
okay, i'm drawing a line in the fucking sand here. do not read the latin.
stop being a fucking baby.
we have a winner!
you had zombies, but this is "zombie redneck torture family," see? they're entirely separate species.

@awordwasthebeginning tagged me to answer 15 questions and tag 15 people, let's see how I fare.
1. Are you named after anyone?
Yeah, both after my mom's grandmother and after my father's grandmother, although I only use one first name in everyday.
2. When was the last time you cried?
Couple weeks back, when I caught up on the finale of Owl House. This show is so good.
3. Do you have kids?
Nope.
4. Do you use sarcasm a lot?
More in writing than in speaking, but yeah.
5. What sports do you play / have you played?
Sports... *hisses at the word* Uh, I don't think Yoga counts. A bit of calisthenics if I can bother? I go on walks sometimes? Eh. Something I can do alone, in any case. In school, P. E. was a humiliation on a regular basis.
6. What's the first thing you notice about other people?
Basic politeness. Say hello, be clear about what you want and don't infringe on other's personal space? We're peachy. Hear music on the train without headphones, think traffic was made Specifically For You, yell at or condescend to people? I can plan your death within 15 seconds of learning of your existence.
7. What's your eye color?
A kind of greyish blue.
8. Scary movies or happy endings?
Happy endings. They can suffer on the way there, but where's the point if it doesn't pay off?
9. Any special talents?
I was told I'm both a decent writer and cook, is that special? If you want something useless, random and slightly freaky, I can do a weird thing where I make my pupils tremble.
10. Where were you born?
The federal state with the ostensibly worst German dialect (slander), Saxony. We got a pretty baroque city here tho, so there.
11. What are your hobbies?
Writing and, when the muse turns her attention back to it, drawing and sewing. Also, cooking. And watching tons of series with my friend to yell and snark about them together XD
12. Do you have any pets?
Not atm, but I'm holding out hope.
13. How tall are you?
1,62 m or 5'4" for my non-metric fellas
14. Favorite subject in school?
German (Literature) and History. Heh, I guess while I collect new fancies and interests every month, my true passions were set in stone early on. It helped that my teachers for those were awesome.
15. Dream job?
I think deep down, I still wanna be a writer. It's not highly realistic, but it's what I think I'd be best at.
Tagging... uh, I'm always so out of my depth at this part. @chaoticpartners-incrime @poodlewithaguitar @str4wanzerin @chrisoels @cricrithings @herzeliebes-waltherlin @mutantenfisch @thotstochter @kittycatalex @owlbear33 @breaddo @krejong @scifi-mistica @fallingforfandoms @mynameisactuallylenny
Oof, are those fifteen? Uhm, tagging with zero pressure, you guys <3 Take care and be prideful!

Hi Irina!!! :D
Sorry for sending an ask so soon after my first one 😅 But I saw the masterpost and I was like "Sunshine Cinnamon roll Harley needs more love! 🥺"
Tumblr media
So!! From the emoji asks:
⚾️ and 💘 if it's not too much trouble??
P.S. You're awesome, thanks for all the posts and info already it's making me so happy/excited!! 🤗
hii poet & no problem you're always saying nice things and being so wholesome so i love your asks lmao
& totally agreed after seeing the last poll</3
⚾ BASEBALL - can they play sports? what is their best position if they play a team sport? what's their strong suit (speed, power etc.)?
💘 HEART W/ ARROW - what traits do they look for in a relationship? do they believe in love at first sight?
from this list
Tumblr media
Harley doesn't really play team sports, she prefers calisthenics and powerbuilding; but she honestly loves anything that keeps her active. However, she's done a pretty good job at goalkeeping the few times she's tried, and she's a goddess at ping-pong. Her strong suit is definitely strength, both absolute & relative; and her reflexes.
Harley honestly just wants someone that'll make her feel seen and loved. Someone that looks her in the eyes when she talks, or that at least listens to what she says instead of waiting for their turn to speak.
She doesn't really believe in love at first sight; however she firmly believes in what she calls it 'love at second sight' (lmao). That's when she's listening to a friend speak, like she's done countless times before, but something suddenly clicks; and she can't help but feel dumb for not having realised before that her friend is beautiful.
So Harley won't fall in love the first time she lays her eyes on you, but the hundredth. :)

if this is okay and you still do requests.. could you please expand on chica and roxy's sides about how they'd help with sensory overload? i really like how you wrote about them and it made me comfy after having my own overload a while ago. thank you ur writing is awesome :]
of course thank you so much omg 🥺💗
Helping you with Sensory Overload Continued! (Chica and Roxy edition!)
💕Chica🐔
- Along with calisthenics, Mazercise also offered yoga and guided meditation classes for a short time - Even though the program was discontinued, she still has all the information in her system, so she can bring you back into the present as gently as possible - “Alright, (Y/N), breath in-two-three-four and out-two-three-four…” “Keep it up, you’re doing great!”
💚Roxy🐺
- Even though she loves to be in the spotlight, she’s more than willing to take some time away from her crowds of fans to be with you - She’ll camp out with you in private for as long as you need, only driving off to grab you some water or food - “I’ll be right back, (Y/N), don’t worry! If I can make it around this track in less than a minute, imagine how fast I can grab you a drink!” - Her eyes will be constantly scanning as you sit together, ready to scare off anyone who might be coming too close

Life updates
I guess this is the place where I write random life updates now on occasional journaling missions.
I finished all my classes for graduate school and have met the minimum req for a master's degree (although I am in the PhD track). So that's a cool accomplishment on my way to bigger and better stuff.
My research is super freaking fun, although I am still far from having results. One step forward, two steps backwards at times.
I really am unsure of my post-school plans. I would be interested in doing a planetary science post doc somewhere but I am *so* so tempted to go into data science. With my experience as a software engineer, and then also as a scientist (I use machine learning techniques too), I think I'll be well-situated to go into the private sector as a data scientist, if that's the way I wind up going.
Alternatively, my advisor has left my university (still my advisor though!) to work for the Smithsonian. All my research collaborators are now Smithsonian employees working on the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter for NASA. I was told I'd have a good shot at a job there, at least as a graduate level intern, and I would love to do that.
I am currently dating someone from the area I was living in before moving to the South (and it looks like in a few years we may move back up there, fingers crossed). I've been super happy and she seems to have also been very happy with our relationship so far. I really hope things continue to work out! Here is a picture of us at a lake:
Tumblr media
I also recently began writing again (fiction). I am writing a collection of connected short stories that build up a greater story line between them while maintaining total narrative independence from one another. I would like to publish one of them sometime (already got a personal rejection and compliments from a magazine editor). I'm keeping details sparse until I can publish something... ;)
Tumblr media
Have also been exercising. I am doing some Yin Yoga now! The stretches for my knees have absolutely changed my life and healed my knee injuries up entirely! I have been running as a result and I'm in probably the best shape of my life, to include how I felt in basic training.
Here's me after running through a rain storm:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Other than yoga and running, I've been mostly doing calisthenics for strength training stuff. I'm not really seeking to be a big time weightlifter but mostly want to just feel as comfortable in my own body as humanly possible. It's working!
My gf and I have also gone on a bunch of adventures! We just got back from a trip up north. We feasted on some amazing charcuterie while camping and have come across some pretty awesome wildlife!
Here are some pics of wildlife stuff, as well as some delicious food stuff I have recently had:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Left: Alligator directly beneath boardwalk (only a few inches above the ground).
Right: Bear scratches on a tree trunk near my cabin in Massachusetts
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
From left to right (+top -> down): a delicious zucchini pasta with prosciutto, a pickled beet salad w vinaigrette (BEST salad I have EVER had!), the charcuterie we ate during a camping trip, Sicilian style pep pizza, oysters, pistachio spread, ratatouille
I fucking looooooooove food

In Another Man's Shoes
They don't mind questions, I told myself to learn someone's name everyday, but should've done that by now. Still some maskers, but hey it's a choice.
Right dorsi erector sore, soft from old years of guitar/mouse, so i need to do some stretching lower back, hanging leg raise for calisthenic lat spread, plus toe touches, in the 30 rep range for endurance, each working set should grant 10 minutes to filling boxes. Tight back, stress, cracked on foam roller, stretching.
Functional training is a warmup. Stamina training after work, should get me thru the weak, rowing should build back endurance. (example) In basketball, running laps because your hands are sore, vs, toe touches because I can't stack. Rest.
I'm trying to level up, cutting 2lbs/week. Finally sub-212 for now (from 250), 180 if i can eat the same thing, same times, for each and every day, carefully or my body will change metabolism. If you've seen someone with 5% bodyfat, they talk normal things like they've just seen a war.
Tumblr media
Truck bit the curb and threw a shoe. Backup car fills 1/3 cheaper than truck. Room cheaper than rent, etc. Next level opportunities at work, and meeting people, learning the language.
Red scow deathtrap crashed in the parking lot, at the gym, crossways in the angled spots. Kismet. Luck. Fortuitous. Serendipity. Fate. Awesomeness. Gutting and scrapping it.

Jake English, Karkat Vantas, Dave Strider
Meat, page 30
JAKE: Ah chaps dont you love to take a rigorous jaunt about the wilds first thing in the morning, middle thing in the day, and last thing in the evening?
KARKAT: NO
JAKE: By jove karkat that you are so winded by such little activity is truly alarming!
KARKAT: WE’VE BEEN HIKING FOR A FUCKING HOUR, DIPSHIT.
KARKAT: I CAN ALREADY FEEL MY LEGS STARTING TO LOCK UP. I THINK THEY’RE GETTING A HEAD START ON THE RIGOR MORTIS!
KARKAT: BECAUSE YOU’RE FUCKING KILLING ME, IS WHAT I’M SAYING. BY MAKING ME HIKE THROUGH NATURE IN A FUCKING SUIT.
KARKAT: GREAT WORK EVERYONE. YOU’LL BE OFFERING UP A PRE-ASSASSINATED PRESIDENT TO A FRENZIED ELECTORATE. AWESOME STRATEGY!
JAKE: Perhaps you need a better calisthenics routine. I can suggest several alterations to your morning workout and even give you a lesson or two myself!
KARKAT: MY MORNING WORKOUT??
KARKAT: I COULDN’T THINK OF A MORE OFFENSIVELY PRESUMPTUOUS PHRASE IF I TRIED.
KARKAT: ALSO, WHAT THE FUCK IS A CALISTHENIC?
KARKAT: IS THAT THE NAME OF YOUR FAN CHERUB??
DAVE: hey jake were cool on the whole cardio program or whatever
DAVE: karkats not really what id call a kinesthetic learner
KARKAT: HEY!
KARKAT: I CAN HOLD MY OWN IN A THRESHING MATCH BETTER THAN 99% OF THE SQUISHY, PLACID HUMAN POPULATION ON THIS PLANET.
KARKAT: I WAS LITERALLY TRAINING TO BE A COMBAT SPECIALIST ON ALTERNIA.
KARKAT: MAYBE WE SHOULD SOMETIMES TRY TO REMEMBER AND *FUCKING RESPECT* THAT FACT ABOUT ME???
DAVE: hm
DAVE: gonna make another mental note about which material to avoid when writing your campaign speeches
DAVE: like
DAVE: dude is nuts with a sickle
DAVE: can carve a bloody arc through a surrounding circle of gathered squishy humans
DAVE: watch their guts spill on the floor while he roars at the sky in honor of his genocidal ancestors
DAVE: were kinda trying to downplay the idea that trolls are naturally good at violence and shit here?
DAVE: hey speaking of which
DAVE: jake you wanna back karkat in this election or what
JAKE: Uhhh...
JAKE: Ah i see. That was your purpose in coming out here.
DAVE: yeah
DAVE: that IS basically the only reason either of us would waste time climbing a mountain instead of like
DAVE: almost perfectly replicating the experience by checking out sweet stock photos of a mountain on the crockernet image search while spraying our hive with air freshener or something
DAVE: oh hey wait that reminds me
DAVE: isnt it fucked up how jane literally owns the internet??
JAKE: Id never really thought about it i admit.
DAVE: its pretty fucked up trust me
DAVE: like she already owns the major method of information dissemination and now she wants to be the one ultimately in control of what information gets disseminated
DAVE: do you really think one person should have all that power
JAKE: Hmmmmmmmmm.
KARKAT: THE ANSWER IS NO, IDIOT.
DAVE: yeah
DAVE: which is why you should back us and our campaign
DAVE: our campaign slogan for the purpose of this conversation only is “hey isnt it cool how were not jane and also we dont want to own everything”
DAVE: and also... man
DAVE: on a more personal note
DAVE: i mean have you even SEEN the shit janes been saying about you in the media
JAKE: Ive seen the shit YOUVE been saying about HER!
JAKE: Your poorly optimized billboards about “huge dunks” on the economy and “neoliberal austerity measures” tumbling down geometrically improbable staircases have made quite a stir in the neighborhood.
JAKE: These advertisements play at all hours of the night my good man. One can hardly get a wink of sleep!
DAVE: yeah but at least we paid for it out of campaign dollars instead of spinelessly setting up super pacs to spew out propaganda for us
JAKE: Super pacs??
DAVE: oh yeah
DAVE: listen to this bullshit
DAVE: so theyre technically expenditure independent committees meaning they can allocate unlimited funding for...
KARKAT: LOOK, DAVE. JAKE REALLY DOESN’T CARE WHAT A SUPER PAC IS.
KARKAT: I DON’T THINK ANYONE CARES ABOUT FUCKING SUPER PACS??
KARKAT: I KNOW YOU PUT A LOT OF WORK INTO YOUR SPIEL ABOUT IT, ESPECIALLY THE RAPPED SEQUENCE.
KARKAT: BUT YOU’RE NEVER GOING TO GET ANYBODY TO GIVE A FUCK ABOUT THIS STUFF MAN, I’M SORRY.
DAVE: mmff noomph
KARKAT: JAKE, THE POINT IS THIS.
KARKAT: JANE IS HAVING YOU SMEARED INDIRECTLY.
JAKE: Well that would be the way to do it i suppose if you wished to keep clean hands in an inherently dirty business.
DAVE: ok but thats partially my point
DAVE: were doing all our propaganda in house instead of outsourcing to unscrupulous shadow networks with deep money pockets
KARKAT: FOR BETTER OR FOR WORSE.
DAVE: what does that mean
KARKAT: AS MUCH AS I APPRECIATE YOUR “ARTISTIC VISION” DAVE, I THINK THAT YOUR POLITICAL ADS ARE LARGELY GOING OVER PEOPLE’S HEADS.
KARKAT: THEY’RE KIND OF...
DAVE: bold?
KARKAT: NO
DAVE: oh you mean avant garde
DAVE: well yeah
DAVE: everyone knows that
KARKAT: NOT REALLY HOW I WOULD PUT IT EITHER.
DAVE: nuanced
DAVE: oh wait
DAVE: visionary
DAVE: you think theyre visionary as fuck
DAVE: ok yeah you got me
DAVE: im a forward thinker karkat
DAVE: this is just what life is like in the dave lane
DAVE: buckle the fuck up
KARKAT: JESUS FUCKING CHRIST
KARKAT: I’M GOING TO SAY THIS FOR THE LAST TIME.
KARKAT: SWEET BRO AND HELLA JEFF IS ABSOLUTELY HORRENDOUS SUBJECT MATTER FOR PRODUCING CAMPAIGN ADS!
KARKAT: NOBODY KNOWS WHAT THE FUCK YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT, OR WHAT POINTS YOU’RE TRYING TO MAKE!
DAVE: yeah its awesome
KARKAT: YOU’RE WASTING CAMPAIGN MONEY!!!
DAVE: were fucking trillionaires dude
JAKE: Willickers dave has anyone ever told you that you have an uncanny talent for cutting straight and incisively to the point without sweating any of the bullshit.
JAKE: Youre rather like dirk in that way actually.
DAVE: i... what
KARKAT: HAHAHA. *DAVE* IS GOOD AT CUTTING THROUGH *BULLSHIT*??
KARKAT: STRIDER IS A FOG MACHINE OF *PURE* BULLSHIT.
KARKAT: THERE IS NOTHING THAT COMES OUT OF HIS MOUTH THAT IS *NOT BULLSHIT*.
DAVE: thats basically true
KARKAT: AND I’M PRETTY SURE DIRK MIGHT BE EVEN WORSE?!
DAVE: yeah pretty much
KARKAT: SORRY JAKE. I KNOW WE’RE SOLICITING YOU FOR THE SWAY YOUR HOT POPULAR ASS HAS OVER THE PEOPLE, AND NOT EXACTLY YOUR BRAINPOWER, SO MAYBE THIS IS SOMEWHAT UNFAIR, BUT...
KARKAT: THAT MAY HAVE BEEN THE WORST TAKE I’VE EVER FUCKING HEARD IN MY LIFE?
DAVE: whoa chill out man
DAVE: remember were trying to woo this guy onto our side
DAVE: can you maybe go at least a solid minute without forgetting youre a fuckin politician now?
DAVE: that means you should try not to insult everybody you meet multiple times per sentence
KARKAT: FUCK!!
KARKAT: YEAH, I KNOW.
KARKAT: I’M FUCKING SORRY JAKE. FOR IMPLYING THAT YOU HAVE SLIGHTLY LESS CEREBRAL PROCESSING POWER THAN THE SWEATY WEDGIE THIS FUCKING SUIT IS GIVING MY THROBBING, HIKE-SORE ASS.
DAVE: hmm
DAVE: nope that still sucks
DAVE: you suck dude
KARKAT: YEAH, WELL CHEW ON THIS, “MASTER STRATEGIST.” MAYBE YOU TELLING ME I SUCK IS ACTUALLY THE SMARTEST THING YOU’VE EVER FUCKING SAID!
JAKE: Gentlemen!!!
JAKE: Jeepers fucking christmas.
JAKE: I was just trying to pay mr strider a gracious compliment not every little pleasantry need be taken with such blasted literalism!
JAKE: And i appreciate that youre trying to sway my political favor into your bungalow with a bit of the old elbow grease and cajolery even if your methods are wont to veer into full throated invective in virtually every single exchange no matter how harmless the topic.
JAKE: And i truly mean it when i say i DO appreciate the effort. Both at the brownnosing as well as the dubious restraint when it comes to impugning my noodle.
JAKE: But all this is adding up to make me wonder...
JAKE: Why should i side with either of you?
JAKE: Flattery is all well and good but i hardly think i would bother casting my knickers in with anyones lot based on the quality of praise or for that matter withholding them due to having my ego bruised from a verbal drubbing.
JAKE: Im not entirely ignorant of the rules of this jamboree. I understand that whoever i endorse will have a good chance of winning on nothing but my good word.
JAKE: So why should i trust ANYONE trying to win my favor right now? Do you have ANY case to make which does not involve glowing accounts of my muscular bottom???
DAVE: ok yeah we can do that
DAVE: you mean like
DAVE: an actual pitch?
DAVE: on policy or shit
DAVE: or vision for the world
DAVE: we can set you up bro
DAVE: or i mean this guy can
DAVE: thats what he was made for
DAVE: born fuckin leader right here
KARKAT: WHAT?
DAVE: take it away man
DAVE: our boy jake here wants to be goddamn dazzled
KARKAT: LOOK, JAKE.
KARKAT: I’M NOT GOING TO TRY TO SELL YOU SOME LUDICROUS STORY ABOUT HOW I’M THE BEST CANDIDATE EARTH C HAS EVER SEEN OR ANYTHING.
KARKAT: I’M NOT GOING TO BE THAT ARROGANT, ESPECIALLY SINCE MY ARM HAD TO BE TWISTED RIGHT OUT OF ITS SOCKET TO GET ME TO EVEN RUN.
KARKAT: BUT AT LEAST WE’RE NOT HIDING OUR INTENTIONS.
KARKAT: AT THIS POINT, IT’S NOT A POLICY BEEF THAT I HAVE WITH JANE CROCKER.
DAVE: yeah im the one with the policy beef
DAVE: corporate welfare destroys public infrastructure
KARKAT: SHUT UP, I’M TALKING.
DAVE: word
KARKAT: WE’RE STILL LIVING ON AN INCREDIBLY YOUNG PLANET. LET’S BE REAL. EVERY PRESIDENT UP UNTIL NOW HAS JUST BEEN SOME BOZO BASICALLY PLAYACTING AT BEING IN CHARGE.
KARKAT: BECAUSE THIS WHOLE TIME EVERYONE’S BEEN HOLDING THEIR BREATH WAITING FOR ONE OF *US* TO RUN.
KARKAT: WHOEVER WINS, ME OR JANE, WILL SET THE TONE FOR SUBSEQUENT ADMINISTRATIONS FOR WHO KNOWS HOW FUCKING LONG.
KARKAT: IT’S ENTIRELY POSSIBLE THAT JANE WILL PROVE TO BE A COMPETENT PRESIDENT. I HAVE NO DOUBTS ON HER ADMINISTRATIVE ACUMEN, CONSIDERING THAT’S PROBABLY THE ONLY FUCKING THING SHE HAS GOING FOR HER, BESIDES A SERIES OF PHYSICAL ATTRIBUTES WHICH I KEEP BEING TOLD AREN’T TOO HARD ON THE EYES, BUT FRANKLY, I STILL DON’T KNOW IF I’M SEEING IT?
KARKAT: I MEAN, SHE’S LIKE... *ALRIGHT*? I FUCKING *GUESS*??
JAKE: Now lets not be too unfair old chap...
KARKAT: I THINK I’M ALLOWED TO BE *UNFAIR* WHEN SHE’S HOLDING THE REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS OF MY ENTIRE SPECIES HOSTAGE.
JAKE: Ah. Point well met.
KARKAT: JAKE, SHE WILL SET A HORRIBLE PRECEDENT.
KARKAT: SHE’S INDIRECT. SHE’S PRIVILEGED. SHE’S CONCERNED WITH HOW THINGS *LOOK* RATHER THAN HOW THINGS *ARE*.
KARKAT: NO MATTER HOW NICE SHE WAS WHEN YOU WERE KIDS, HER DEDICATION TO THE APPEARANCE OF THAT “NICENESS” HAS ALREADY LED HER DOWN A PATH OF CORRUPTION AND DUPLICITY.
KARKAT: BECAUSE WHEN YOU LIVE INSIDE A SKIN THAT’S A LIE, YOU’LL EITHER GROW TO FIT IT, OR COLLAPSE UNDER THE UNBEARABLE WEIGHT OF YOUR OWN SHIT-SPEWING COGNITIVE DISSONANCE.
KARKAT: TRUST ME, I FUCKING KNOW, BECAUSE I USED TO SPEW AN UNTOLD AMOUNT OF SHIT.
DAVE: (yeah... “used to”)
KARKAT: DUDE!
KARKAT: WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU WANT!
KARKAT: GET OFF MY BULGE.
KARKAT: YOU WANTED ME TO SPIN SOME FUCKING GOLD? TO BUST OUT THE *GOOD SHIT*??
KARKAT: THERE! I SAID IT! THAT WAS THE ***GOOD SHIT***!
KARKAT: I’M DONE! I DID MY THING! THIS MINCING HALFWIT IN THE TINY SHORTS CAN DO WHATEVER THE FUCK HE WANTS NOW!
DAVE: (no no that was good man)
DAVE: (i was just messin with you)
DAVE: (great job dude i love it)
JAKE: Well dash my wig!
JAKE: Ill do it!
KARKAT: DASH YOUR WHAT?
DAVE: fuck yeah

Easy Rider | Original Trailer [HD] | Coolidge Corner Theatre
youtube
We have to remember that Dave did not start the fire it was Max and they're continuing on and they have a plan to go after him this is a great way to advertise it I'm in the movie I started losing it and then he said you got to be kidding you're riding the hard knock and the sergeant level and I said wow that's awesome so he wrote out there people give it a s*** the whole time some people weren't and the guys are riding by bothering us at least stops for some reason they show up in the movie with hard knock they said I see how it is and they told some people and it's trying to become a gang. And it's funny because we had an experiences out there and some of the hard knocks for around and it took a wind out yet I mean geez. And so he wants someone to climb this mountain this 8 Mile mountain and he says it Dave was doing it for information to try and survive and didn't kill people and how does he have the people cuz they're low level and to survive and I thought it was a good thing to do cuz we were hitting his people and we understood it later and we said it's really gross but we're not listening and it was harsh but now we have him as a motivator to stop everybody from getting their stuff and mostly the Max and we're working on it this stuff works and it started with Jason who was inspired a little bit by our friend but it was helped by zigzag and they say of Mars. And that's wonderfully awesome it's motivational and but it's really it's really intense these are other Giants and they're fighting him and the max it's intense so it makes us want to get in the game and we also see something else he's trying to be helpful and he wants stuff he needs stuff to do things in the code is horrendous but he has to go through it in this new thing with a Firebird it's got me up and I'm ready for it I want my Vader Firebird and I want it now and he says and a skit as Vader you are but an apprentice and he said to learn to have my job or take a lot of effort or something like that and he's walking off in the robe is flowing now I see what it's like it's about it's about power now it's got me a chokehold I can feel it a little and he says you think my power is waiting when it's still growing I got to tell you it's kind of freaky cuz he knows how to say stuff but then again Stan is one of the raiders so we're moving on no we're going to get to it and I should have a pizza so I'm going to stick one to my face this is all about what we love to do but he's hard not kicker 5150 mean something and if we had the originals it's intense and he thinks we're on the originals and he thinks I'm on his and he says it's a good place and it's a good thing it's probably going to get him beat up but that's not why it's a good idea it'll be even Steven I thought it was really cool cuz I'm taking his ride but he lifted that motor and I want to see how heavy it is he says it's most of the bike I'm riding along laughing cuz this damn thing's heavy and most of his damn motor and it's heavy it's a lot of weight for kids to lift up so what are you looking forward to it and he thinks right in the barn right we're back left them know his friends Randall text Cobb left it one of his friends and he says I'm all right with it I have to work out and stuff I get that
Brad
Says he's doing calisthenics over here with the mind because of us that's not very good but still we going to get going on this and that's awesome we're going to try for him but it looks like bja and Brad and I'm kind of hitching a ride yeah it looks awful it looks kind of gay I think Tommy F switches out in my job to be on it it's on rental bike and he it's on Randall and it's really a joy it's on his bike and people want to be him now I see what bja is saying I'm the one doing it

Calisthenics Chest Workout – 4 Effective Exercises
youtube
I've got an awesome Calisthenics Chest Workout for you! These calisthenic chest exercises are fantastic for training and enhancing your chest muscles without the need for weights. We'll be doing a combination of pike push-ups, triceps dips push-ups, and toe touches, which will not only challenge your triceps but also engage those chest muscles. The key to doing these exercises correctly is to focus on each repetition, ensuring a full range of motion. Slowing down the tempo of each movement adds resistance to your chest, helping you maximize the benefits.
Whether you're new to calisthenics or a seasoned pro, this workout routine is suitable for all levels. We'll walk you through each exercise with step-by-step instructions and valuable tips to ensure you perform them safely and effectively.
Let's work out those chest muscles, sweat out, and conquer those fitness goals together! Happy workout! 💪

I’m trying to have a more concrete reason I’m working out again but I can’t seem to find one. I used to exercise because it was fun to do gymnastics and high jump but these are basically impossible to do as an adult.
It’s so sad we kinda stop doing cool shit with our bodies after we become 18 (and after the age of 22 if you continue with college athletics).
Yes, there’s running. You can run until you’re old and gray but I can’t seem to fall in love with it. Yes, there’s yoga and calisthenics but there’s not a competitive element to it. I can’t win lol
Maybe I can be the adult at the trampoline park all alone 3 days a week. What a cool fun awesome idea that is lmao
I’m sure there’s something but I just haven’t found it yet 🙃

15 Questions
And the sponsor of today's inbox: @juststayquiete.
Hi kleff (。・ω・)ノ゙
1. Are you named after anyone?
Either no or I am not aware of it.
2. When was the last time you cried?
Can't really remember. Maybe this winter?
3. Do you have kids?
No, thank you.
4. Do you use sarcasm a lot?
Sarcasm is a passive-agressive witty. I prefer not-needing-a-therapist witty, also called "irony".
5. What sports do you play/have you played?
Surprisingly, there is a list.
Handball at school for a few years. Mostly used it to travel, since we as a team have been to Moscow, Saint-Petersburg and some other places (lol no, we weren't that good, but still had some competitions, for an unknown to me reason).
Some track-and-field. Left after a month, i guess. Just did it because my school teacher told me to try. The vibe was off.
Aikido. Got a new girl to our class, she was into it. Went with her for a couple months or so. Was fun but not my thing.
And like 3 years of gymnastics around age of 6-7. The funniest part, because I don't remember these 3 years at all, it's only that my mom said it was whole 3 fucking years. I have only like 3 core memories about it and genuinely thought it was about 4 months total at most.
6. What’s the first thing you notice about other people?
Actually, nothing at all. I just vibe and see if it feels okay. Leave, if it's not.
7. Eye colour?
Gray.
8. Scary movies or happy endings?
Happy endings. Life in today's society is one big drama anyway, give it some fucking sense with my happy fluffy stuff.
9. Any special talents?
Sometimes insanely adaptive.
Make not working shit work, even if at the beginning i have no idea what it is.
Speak like 3.5 languages, if it's any special.
10. Where were you born?
Northern Russia.
11. What are your hobbies?
Obviously gaming and VP. Also drawing, learning languages, coding, some calisthenics, some guitar. And I play D&D sometimes.
12. Do you have any pets?
A cat at my parents' place. Not quite "I" have it tho.
13. How tall are you?
170
(5'6/5'7 something, dunno, not american)
14. Favourite subject in school?
Math, Arts, Chemistry.
Math is cool. Love it.
The last one is here only because the teacher let me make tea in a cup at her lab and drink it during the class. Love her.
And my arts teacher taught me how to use a tattoo machine at the housekeeping classroom after school (yeah, i know, fucking awesome. ao3 worth tier of awesome. which is a lot). Shout out to her, she's cool.
15. Dream job?
Hanako Arasaka's sugar baby is a job, right?
Right.
If not, just a cool software engineer with cool tasks and architectures to project would be neat. Don't forget the high ass salary.
Tagging @bnbc and @soul-invictus because I can. And no one can stop me.
Join if you feel like it. Or not.
