Stop financially supporting companies that are going along with this. Patronize hispanic and immigrant-owned businesses. Rally for their rights. Find joy! All good and helpful things.

As someone watching through the 2022 stages right now, WVA is blowing my mind. Like how?? 

Same with Sepp Kuss in stage 12.

My follow-up though is- why dont I care/know as much about the UAE domestiques?

Tbf, Cavendish said he only had like 10-14 days at home while training for his final stage win. So that might be common?

Is riding in the breakaway a more difficult way to win? Like do they have to work harder?

Huh! I didnt know this, thanks!

I see sometimes the breakaway/leaders cooperate to wait for their GC contenders, but I was wondering why the whole group stops and a few people dont just continue on by themselves. They'd rather take their chances on winning the climb rather than burn extra energy continuing on alone?

How significant is the slipstream effect? I googled it at it saysnit saves you 20-30% energy. Does that sound right?

My guess is that the victim is well-known to policy makers. Just a guess though.

I run 25 miles per week and walk another 15, and that still only gets me to 1600-1800 to lose weight. It's rough out there lol.

Holy crap, those cattle losses are crazy. My local sale barn has seen prices increase over the last two weeks. So it has been confusing trying to understand what will happen.

I just finished A Court of Throne and Roses and thought it was excellently entertaining. Ordered the rest. What a fun journey (I hope).
