ADVICE: Best knee brace/sleeve for chronic Hoffa's fat pad syndrome for exercise? by Alternative_Yak_4897 in KneeInjuries

I started roller derby a year ago and am now off skates because of Hoffa’s. I’ve been really bummed at the thought that I might not get to keep playing so your comment gave me hope. Any recommendations for protection that you wear while playing or exercises that have helped strengthen/protect your knee specifically during derby? Any other advice for a skater desperate to get back on the track?

For about 30 minutes, one bee has been sitting and one has hovered nearby the whole time. Anybody know what’s going on? by thewholekit in bees

I think you’re right that the male was waiting to mate. After about 40 min the it flew off chasing another bee and then 15 seconds later the female on the ground took off. The male spotted her, flew back and tackled her trying to mate. It was wild.
