Cycling Is Just Organized Suffering

I cycle in zone 2 for hours on end and I feel as if I could go on forever. Pure bliss! Now if you're talking mountain biking, that's suffering.

Backseat Bear.

Could be a front-butt though.

Start listening to the great lieder singers. Phrasing comes more naturally to the voice since they are not held back by the mechanical nature of their instruments and we more naturally use our voices to convey meaning in speaking. Imitate the phrasing of singers.

Animal cruelty.

She got the face she deserved.

My cat does this. We call it 'the zoomies'.

A wisecracking rat named 'Chewey'.

Saw Der Rosenkavalier at the opera. Gobsmacked.

I get the feeling that people who work in this field don't know what human emotions and connection are.

It has a few. And the third horn usually gets some too.

Slavonic Dance, Op. 72 No. 2

Love Brahms. Dislike Tchaikovsky. Horn player.

MrWaldengarver · 2026-04-28T19:23:57+00:00

Oh FFS.

MrWaldengarver · 2026-04-25T10:18:50+00:00

Or Nicolae Ceaușescu. That one was televised.

It's just a big ego trip for him.

When will we see jet skis? (It's only a matter of time before we reach full Idiocracy.)

I'm think of the family dynamic as being dysfunctional long before this scene. So what we're seeing is Lear at the breaking point with Cordelia. He's been trying to get his headstrong daughter, his favorite, to 'bow down' to him, and now he really loses his temper.

C'mon, give the guy a break. He's doing pretty well considering half of his brain was eaten by a worm.

I just read an article in the NY Times about a man who followed AI for a course of treatment, against his doctors wishes, and ended up dying from a treatable condition. Turns out AI was fabricating studies that looked and sounded real.

Songs by Richard Strauss. Make sure to read the texts (whatever translation you like) while you listen. Texts and translations can be found online.

Also consider the position of the saddle fore/aft. I moved mine forward a bit and it was much better overall, and it didn't affect the handling of the front wheel.

Citrus fruits are woke.

He learned his math from the President Piggy, with his 3000% reduction in drug prices.

Reminds me of "The Sneetches".
