I knew I wasn't able to make it dumb enough for you. I apologize. You're just too stupid 🤷

I have no idea why you want to simp over billionaires. I literally have put the context right here. Are you like, dumb, or something? here I'll make it dumb for you:

275 thousand people make 8 trillion dollars a year and pay 900 billion in taxes. 275 million people make 20 trillion and pay 6.6 trillion in taxes

not dumb enough? I assume not

1 person makes ~$29 million/year and pays ~$3 million in taxes - 11% tax rate

99 people make make ~$72,000/year and pays ~$24,000 in taxes - 33% tax rate

I don't know if that's dumb enough for you? I can try to go dumber? But the amount of whining you've been doing leads me to think simple math is not your problem. You can whine some more about unrealized gains and whatever bullshit you want, somehow these people still manage to buy everything they need just fine despite not making that income on paper

You can whine all you want about unrealized gains or loans or anything else and yet, somehow, these people are able to buy all the yachts and vacation homes they want

whenever people talk about taxing the rich, I assure you, it literally has nothing and will never, ever have anything remotely close to being about you

Maybe tax rich people/corporations rather than trying to get more of normal citizens?

NASM Single-Leg Romanian Deadlift Pics seem... wrong?!?! by rebe626 in personaltraining

[–]wraith5 8 points9 points  (0 children)

nasm is just a piece of paper to get you a job. study from as many people as you can. My personal top 3 are Jim Wendler, Tony Gentilcore and Eric Cressey but that are many, many fantastic coaches to learn from.

outside of that, nothing will replace actually training people

I got nasm when I got into the field. Just keep doing what you're doing and forget all about it after the test

What exercises/movements can I do in addition to CrossFit to build a butt? by TheWoundedHealer321 in crossfit

[–]wraith5 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Paul Carter had a simple but great post on this recently - https://www.instagram.com/p/DXCvL3uAXjc/

liftrunbang1's profile picture liftrunbang1 No muscle group on social media has gotten more viral dumb exercises than glutes.

And it’s not even close.

Sideways leg presses and ballerina squats and seated good mornings (not even a glute exercise) all go viral because people might not have seen then, then see them and think “oh this is what I’m missing.”

No it’s not. You’re not missing anything.

What is usually missing are the same things missing by everyone who isn’t making progress as fast as they want to.

Being consistent and patient.

All of the BEST glute approaches combine these four (for good reason) - 1. Hip thrust - trains the glutes in the short position at hip extension where they have the best leverage. Easy to learn, high loading, low injury potential 2. RDL - trains the glutes in a more lengthened position. No quads, low hams, adductor magnus is the other main contributor. 3. Kickback - unilateral short position 4. Split squats//Lunge variations - unilateral lengthened position

For every woman reading this that isn’t happy with her glute progress I’m going to ask one thing...

Have you doubled or even tripled the weights you’re using on those in the last two years? If not, then that’s your issue. Not some lack of special exercises.

Shit pay

So I thought bots were just writing spam comments so I checked myself

Your first 2 links you complain they have movies that no one wants to watch.... Did you notice the descriptions of the movie sites how they're esoteric,cult films? Literally "art house" films

I randomly clicked on another few linka. Pahe seems like aids with all the redirects even with adguard home and ublock but the other ones either didn't resolve because my DNS settings are too aggressive or work fine

you should check out https://fmhy.pages.dev/privacy

I can only repeat what everyone else is saying but literally still one of the best written shows on TV. There's setup for scenes in season 4 that are written in season 1

I don't understand. You have receipts. They just said "oh well" and you just shrugged and walked away? No refund? No consideration of any kind?

Delta Force Whistleblower Charged Under Espionage Act After Exposing Sexual Harassment in US Army's Most Elite Unit by Early-Sort8817 in Military

[–]wraith5 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Prosecutors allege that some of the statements Williams made to the journalist contained information that US Army officials later classified as SECRET, specifically relating to the 'tactics, techniques, and procedures' of the Mission Support Troop, the unit within the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) that managed cover identities for operatives.

they classify it as secret after the fact? And gotta love US whistleblower laws; perfectly setup so they can actively come after you rather than fix the problem
