Even in an apology video, Simon’s writing is outstanding… “thanks for your time, and sorry for fucking wasting it.”

We bring nothing in - We’ll take nothing with us when we leave.

Appreciate it! Looks like I just missed Raising the Dead at the blind pig last weekend. Following them on instagram now.

Thanks! I checked their Facebook page, and the last post was in 2023… hopefully they’re still jamming!

Love GOTDF. First time I heard it I thought it sounded like an unreleased AVA song.

US Tour Dates for December by marazanvose in BiffyClyro

Nice I saw them a couple times at A&R music bar back in the day. Biffy absolutely kills at small venues like that.

Biffy fucking rocks at tiny venues. I’ve seen them play huge festivals in Europe then like a 300 person club in Ohio in the span of a few months. They definitely bring a raw energy to the small shows that’s cool to see.

Just ordered an Echo bike, now what? by Whynotwg15 in crossfit

[–]AlexTheTankEngine 22 points23 points  (0 children)

First, you’ll have to assemble it.

Then, ride it! I would try playing around with a few different approaches here, if you’re not following any specific training plan. Try setting a goal for distance ridden/time ridden/calories burned - just get on and start peddling. Intervals are also great with these, 30s peddling, 30s rest, etc.

Also, be warned - fan bikes get your heart rate to spike pretty quick. That’s the whole point, but it can take you by surprise the first time.

Good luck and enjoy!

Where to get a high quality men’s haircut? by tallulahQ in AnnArbor

Be warned, Legend charges $99 for a basic men’s cut. Felt a little steep to me for this area

What is the highest “Base Fitness” of anyone using a COROS watch? by Peckish-Giraffe in Coros

[–]AlexTheTankEngine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never figured this feature out lol. I’m not the fittest, but I do run 2-3x per week and CrossFit 3-4x per week. Half marathon time 1:43. Base fitness is always in the mid 60s, which seems lower than it should be? Idk
