foam rolling is really great to work out any soreness that you might have from your workouts. it works to break up scar tissue and lactic acid. i use it especially on my shins (shin splints), my hips (tightness), and outer thighs (ITband issues). they’re nice that you can also do “workouts” with them; i like this one: …

Quick answer from someone who lost over 120 lbs: any movement is beneficial, body weight or with free weight. Body weight is a great way to prepare your joints for more intensive workouts (for instance, push ups are a great way to get your shoulders ready for say, the bench press or other externally loaded push…

Eh, getting out of the car and confronting 3 guys in full riding gear - likely fueled by his knowledge of said gun in the car (he might have handed her the gun before exiting) - is cowardice.

Dippin’ Dots are cold little garbage pods.

If I were forced to work at Starbucks I’d probably put names like “Kevarn” and “Gnat.”

I work in customer service where we always have to confirm first and last name spelling. People with common first names spelled the uncommon way are the WORST if you spell it wrong. So I would totally ask you to spell Amy. Because of how many times I’ve done the “ok, was that A-m-y?” to get *super exaggerated and…

You can blame all the Amies and Amees, etc.

My sister-in-law’s name is Ami, and she doesn’t like it when people assume it’s Amy. I would rather ask how than get it wrong.

In fairness, I’ve seen baristas misspell names like “Kevin” and “Matt”, so I’m not sure that’s the best barometer of how difficult your name is to pronounce.

Then build a model of the Lusitania using bird saliva and toothpicks.
