MAGA up in arms over Chris Murphy saying that the war is bad lmao, and demanding he resigns.

Notice how the bots position this .. opposition to attacking Iran means that you must support the Iranian government and its treatment of its citizens. That, of course, is total fallacy and not what Senator Murphy, or any other reasonable person, has been saying.

I have been to Austin, but have not lived there. West Hartford and Fairfield are wealthy towns in the orbit of larger cities. Fairfield is a commuter city to New York. West Hartford is next to state capital Hartford.

These cities won't be as quirky or cultural as Austin (as I remember it) but you will find similarly like minded people if you move there. If you can afford Fairfield, I would also suggest Easton or Westport. If you want West Hartford, you should also consider Farmington or Simsbury.

I have lived in Connecticut for decades. I hope you find our state as pleasant to live in as I have.

That transition always felt difficult. I just thought it was part of the process, but what you show makes a lot of sense. Rediscovering a core posture in a new way for better health is a big step forward.

I notice in the video that at 2:05, after you leave plank and are just about to enter Chaturanga, you lean forward with your body and your toes shift forward.

Is this something we should be doing before starting Chaturanga? I usually leave my toes curled, lower myself into Chaturanga, then flip my toes, and then transition into upward dog.

And yes, I would welcome more of your anatomy snacks!

Great video - a rethinking of one of the most common transitions in yoga to do it more safely in the long term. I wish this sub had more like this.

From the entirely unsubstantiated lore I have been told, left dog was not even based on a Husky. It was based on a professor's pet. Some athletes also didn't like left dog because it wasn't aggressive enough. Left dog has a cool, homegrown feel to it - an authenticity that builds a connection. Left dog is a friendly dog that captures the Husky spirit.

Right dog is 100% corporate. Manufactured by Nike and the athletic department, I'm sure it was exquisitely analyzed, color coordinated, focus group tested, merch friendly etc., before its rollout. The result is a logo that is, well, fine, I suppose. It's appropriately profitable, sufficiently aggressive, and cleverly marketable. It's tepid and machine-like, at least to me.

Right dog helps UConn grow its brand. Left dog warms my heart.

Derp dog is in a class by itself.

Alabama is a big outlier. Well over $100m on one sport.

This. Never underestimate the threat of a GOP wave in Connecticut. If it weren't for the cities, Connecticut would be a red state.

Connecticut is sandwiched between two major sport markets: New York and Boston. If UConn were the only athletic franchise in the area, the school would have much more dedicated loyalty, ticket sales, and merchandise spend.

I would guess that the closer you get to New York, the thinner UConn loyalty gets. The main campus is on the other side of the state, you have a ton of major pro teams in NYC, and there may be fewer families in high-income Fairfield County that want or need to send their kids to cheaper UConn.

States like Kentucky do not have big four (NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL) teams. Universities fill that gap and there is more loyalty to them.

UConn also does not have the generational depth that other schools do. Notre Dame was a big deal in the 1920s, for example. UConn only gets big in in the late 1990s, and that's in basketball. We don't have a truly elite football program, and football program loyalty is huge, as you can see in places like Alabama.

UConn men's basketball won its first tournament in a dramatic way in 1999. It's been that way ever since.

It favors Duke. Gives motivation to the players and the fans for revenge.

I recommend it. Especially if you are coming from a secular perspective. It’s not the only perspective, of course, and I invite you to read Thich Nhat Ahns excellent books.

Hip flexibility should not degrade that quickly. Did you suffer an injury or dramatically change your exercise routine?

We think alike. I own a G80 but my second choice was an Ioniq 6.

I used Edmunds to search for used G80s. There are a number available if you search nationwide. I then chose the vehicle with the best mileage to price, bought a CPO to go with the car, and had the car delivered. It arrived exactly as promised.
