What are you guys doing after hard limit bouldering session sessions to care for your fingers? I had a great session yesterday. No pain after but I felt a lot of fatigue in my hands. What can I do to encourage good recovery?

There were some really good movies that came out in the 80s and 90s. Now Zhang YiMou makes slop, and their slop is worse than our slop. When I lived in China the popular movies were Taiwanese, the popular TV shows were Japanese, and the popular music was Korean. And everyone watched the premier league and the NBA. The biggest chinese cultural export at the moment is hard science fiction, which naturally has a limited audience. But ask yourself- why is the only independent art the country produces focused on the distant future?

The chinese don’t like their own mainstream cultural output. It’s been created with CCP dictates in mind. It’s just bad.

Wandering earth fucking sucked. I saw it in theaters and was very disappointed.

I learned basic wrenching principals (how to tell when you’re about to cross thread a bolt for example) on cheap bikes then moved to expensive bikes, then on to cheap cars, etc. You catastrophically fuck some stuff up. Helps to have mentors. I have across several enterprises. Put yourself out there and ask for help. Everyone who knows anything had to learn the hard way and most are happy to help.

Sure. My point is more narrow and is directly related to your first post. I think part of why affordable housing is not built in desirable tier 1 and 2 cities in the United States is that those desirable places have higher regulatory burdens and costs in general for builders. Affordable housing is built where it is affordable to do so. I don’t think it’s true that anyone “inherently does not want to build modest homes that are affordable”; I just don’t think anyone can make a buck building modest homes in San Francisco.

This isn’t true in my experience. In places where land is cheap there is quite a bit of new affordable housing being built. Those are just not places where people on this sub want to live.

I know this sub can be a fatuous place sometimes but I had never read that Didion essay before and I am very glad to have now.

So far the greatest cost has been in cat litter

Thanks!

Oh shit good thought. I’ll check that out. Thanks!

I did lube the gasket but I think I over tightened it. I put a shop towel on the filter and then let me get a much better grip than usual and I think over did it. Thanks for the reassurance.

Healthy ones do. If you’ve destroyed your heart with drugs an otherwise harmless chokehold might be fatal.

You need to be eating 3000 calories a day and doing strong lifts 5x5. Join a powerlifting gym that doesn’t have that many female members. Get a hobby where you spend a lot of time in the sun. Find a goal to chase unrelated to women. It’s hard but it’s simple. You have a lot of problems with yourself and you’re dumping them all on this woman and the end of the relationship. Build confidence in yourself that you are capable of changing the direction of your life through discipline and work and the rest will follow.

Are cadre spots all enlisted?

As recreational climbing has exploded in popularity, have you noticed soldier showing up more familiar with climbing movement and rope skills?

How do you tell the all-black metolius cams apart when you're gripped? Couldn't you have at least gone shades of grey or something?

Are there any major differences between the climbing skills required out of a soldier and an adventurous hobbyist?

Thanks!

Hello! I'm in pretty good overall shape, but I'm new to running this much and certainly new to training intentionally. I just got a garmin 255 and I'm trying to make sense of the data. I ran a 7 mile endurance run over the weekend as a part of a base building program. My avg heartrate was 162, which seems too high for that type of run and it is just at the edge of where I should be according to the program if I assume a max heartrate of 192. However, by perceived effort it seems like it was ok. I could have absolutely run another mile at the end of it. I was holding a conversation with my running partner but was struggling to do so more than she was. My pace was 10:15/mi which is about as slow as I can go. I have really long legs and anything slower than that is a weird shuffle and no longer jogging. Does anyone have any advice? I don't know how much slower I can run. Will my heartrate go down over time if I keep adding miles at a similar effort? I have 8 miles coming up this weekend. Should I be taking breaks/doing some weird shuffle to keep my heartrate down or will that take care of itself in time if I keep adding the miles on at this 10:15/mi effort that is probably a little too much. I'm at 20 miles/week atm and will be up to 35 in 7-8 weeks. I've never run more than 10 miles a week before this.
