There is a way out of the #MAGA insanity. You are not alone.

Another single workout volume PR on #Tonal today: 28,667 lbs. (back, biceps, light abs).

Also obliterated old one month volume PR of ~194,000 lbs. with a shocking 311,314 lbs. in only 19 days of lifting.

Again, I’m 64.5yo, 5’7”, 138 lbs., and 100% natural. How is this possible?!? 🤷‍♂️💪

New 1-Wk Vol PR:
M=26,354 (Back+Bis+Abs)
T=13,481 (Chest+Tris)
W=21,560 (Legs+Delts+Abs)
T=10,007 (Lite Repeat Mon-Abs)
F=12,134 (Lie Repeat Tue+Abs)
——————————
TOTAL: 83,536 LBS.
——————————
NATURALLY building strength & endurance in my mid-60s. 💪

Another HEAVY pull day (back+biceps) + light abs & obliques resulted in a new single day volume PR on #Tonal of >26,000 lbs. 💪🏼

At my age , height, & weight (64.5yo, 5'7", 138 lbs.), there must be a limit, but I felt like I could have easily/safely did over 30,000 lbs. today. 🤷‍♂️ #bodybuilding #natty

It is undeniably true that every play and every call--correct and/or erroneous--affects the game.

Maybe. But there's a Clutch Player of the Year & a Final 2-Min. Review b/c--just as the Finals (tail end of season) crowns a champ--the tail end of a game often "crowns" a winner.

So, to ensure outcomes are determined by play(ers), refs must be at their best during these times--esp. re easy calls.

Correction: ~51.8 sec.

@okcthunder.bsky.social #NBAFinals refs (and announcers) missed a potentially championship-altering call when #Pacers failed to establish front court possession before the shot clock reached 15 sec. with ~52.8 sec. remaining.

Haliburton jumped in backcourt & pass to Nesmith was still in the air. 🤷‍♂️💯

High school track star stripped of state title over celebration stunt that copied Olympic gold medalist: ‘I would say reinstate her’ “I’m disappointed and I feel robbed. I am in shock. They (officials) yelled at me and told me, ‘We’re not letting you on the podium.’ They took my moment away from me.”

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social @governor.ca.gov Gavin: #ClaraAdams did *nothing* wrong. The standard to revoke anything earned should never be subjective opinion. Rather, it must objectively be, “Was anyone harmed against their will?”
- Victory earned
- No harm done

HEAVY pull day (back+biceps) & some light core work SHATTERED my single-day lifting volume PR on #Tonal, AFTER my day began with some fasted (pre-breakfast) #Zwift intervals around Paris.

When I was young I never imagined being able to do any of this as I'm nearing my 65th b-day. 💪🏼🚴‍♂️👍 #bodybuilding

I know nothing of the game, but Enter The Dragon starring Bruce Lee was an absolutely thrilling part if my childhood.

Two comments:

1. I know women who undoubtedly find the character in your AI image far more attractive than the JW version (or ZE).

2. Relatedly, the most repulsive looking human I’ve ever seen had a spouse and two children, so beauty is not a prerequisite to desire.

Jehovah’s Witnesses mailed us a flyer with an image of their version of Jesus. Until it arrived, I had never imagined Zac Efron playing the Christian messiah. 🤷‍♂️ #religion #Christianity #Jesus #ZacEfron #Hollywood #movies #acting

I neither stated nor implied I was impressed at all, much less favorably so.

Likewise, I made no claim re any actual known falsehood. Rather, I simply posed a question in the form of a hypothetical. I thought that was obvious; both from the words I used and those I avoided.

Thank you. That’s precisely the kind of analysis I was seeking.

I’m not trying to argue anything. I’m genuinely trying to learn. If I “progressed” it’s probably because I read Taiibi’s complaint this afternoon, as well as his attorneys’ bios.

So even if a congressperson acts with actual malice or reckless disregard for the truth, in republishing on social media a known falsehood about someone made by or to them during a congressional hearing—and further amplifies that falsehood with inflammatory comments—that is non-actionable opinion?

I’m happy to learn, so please explain. Does it matter *if/whether* the:

1. disclosed “facts” are untrue; &/or

2. congresswoman republished them outside of Congress (e.g., on BlueSky); &/or

3. republication is outside of legislative duties such that the speech & debate clause is non-applicable?

Maybe one or both of us is misunderstanding the other, but I think your most recent post gets us back to the point in my original post re vagueness.

Again, I’m not a defamation law expert. But the answer might be found in your question.

That is, for a statement to be an opinion, it must be a statement that can be neither proven nor disproven.

Thus, if it is “based on disclosed facts”, then the opinion defense might not be available.

I’m a lawyer, but no expert in defamation law; yet this post seems like *possible* defamation. Maybe the vagueness of “It’s telling…” will save you, but maybe not. 🤷‍♂️

I know nothing of these allegations, but no innocent person need feel compelled to defend oneself absent a civil or criminal action.

An old friend told me she heard her favorite "sexy man" actor was the first choice to play Lestat, so I had #ChatGPT make this for her. #DanielDayLewis #vampire #movies

I don’t know Danielle Sassoon’s personal political views but, in this instance, she and the other attorneys who resigned demonstrated the highest legal ethics. Well done! 👍👍👏⚖️ #law #ethics #news

Yeah. The tech replaced both plungers in about 20 minutes.

But I’ve only used it once since then because I’ve got some yard work (chainsawing tree), home electrical troubleshooting & repair (low voltage to disposal switch), and family medical issues (nothing serious) that require my attention.

Who determines—and using what standard—whether it is “unbridled hate” to post, for example, the legal fact that Donald Trump is a RAPIST?

He is not a criminally convicted RAPIST, but per Judge Kaplan, “as many people commonly understand the word “rape”…the jury found that [he] did exactly that.”
