Covid news

I got the booster shot on Saturday. In Australia, if it isn't already, it looks like 3 shots will qualify you for full-vaxed vs. the 2. By far my worst reaction so far. The last one I had a feverish sleep, but this time I had the feverish sleep, fever dreams, intense headaches, nausea, extreme letha...

I have to say, if it wasn't for all the crypto, inflation, stimulus noise - and this was pre-pandemic - I wouldn't have had any reservations already.

Definitely will be a long-termer so you make sense!

RIP Bud Jeffries

Indeed, poor woman. I heard Bud on The Strength Connection podcast recently. Their son allegedly had ridiculous strength himself and was training to be a police officer. They were running a charity in his name as well.

Sad that another one of these interesting, fringe strength guys departs.

In 2020, I was losing my mind that everyone could happily shut down, chill and accept lots of fresh government money when in late 2019 the economic state of Australia was reportedly stagnant. No one seemed to share my concern. How we've lived in suspended animation and for this long and for us to av...

The OODA loop was developed by fighter pilot John Boyd. There seem to be heaps of books on it. That snippet looked interesting.

Grip & Longevity Article by Jamie Lewis

I really like the old CnP blog, especially the profiles of "badasses". And he was a strong dude. Hope he can turn it around. Not for nothing but John Haack name-checked him recently, recollecting when he was going for Lewis' world record. The old blog was good fun. Some of the splits he h...

No fuckin' thank you to sending US troops to Ukraine

Wouldn't Russia run over Ukraine in hours? Or does the NATO factor mean Russia will be ground down?

Didn't Russia kind of shiv Ukraine in 2014 to the point where their military's been steadily bleeding out?

COFFEE ISN'T REAL. DO THE MATH. NOT ENOUGH BEANS. THINK IT THROUGH

You have got me thinking.

Everyday, all over the world, the number of coffees consumed...these plantations would have to be regenerating all the damn time! The entire globe would almost need to be a coffee plant. Benny! You've made me see through the looking glass.

Undoubtedly other stuff was at play, yeah. From memory I think he flipped his car and made it pretty spectacular as well. Or that could be his hyperbole.

You watch the Netflix documentaries and such - the Middle Eastern tournaments and money pouring in from that part of the world - it's a global enterprise. Even if the person on the street popularity seems to have waned (?) at least here it doesn't really come up anymore. Not to mention the champions...

Big news! The story hasn't come out, but I'm speculating it's something to do with the unhinged shit he's been doing and how it probably "doesn't align with brand values".
