IGX

I couldn't get past the prologue of The Religion. I knew it would be violent but damn, it was so gruesome that I'll have to miss this one.

The U.S. is partly to blame for not preventing or deterring it. After Putin is out of power, countless billions of economic damage will still have been done, many people will have been killed, and so forth. Is it worth all that destruction for Putin to be out of power? The world is a worse place tha...

America's policy of fighting to the last Ukrainian has had more tragic results. The destruction of the Nova Kakhovka dam has killed people, left a hundred thousand people homeless, released massive amounts of crude oil and other chemicals into the Dnipro river, and disrupted 14 million tons of annua...

You and Bram.

Saying Trump had anything to do with it is the dumbest thing either of you have ever said. Here are some actual reasons -- The shutdown without anyone having any idea when or if IGx would ever return. The move and how that was handled. Getting logged out over and over. On a good day I only have to l...

You're kidding, right? I can think of at least seven different things that drove people away.

The goal is to make his life so tedious and miserable that it feels like forever.

I'd be surprised if anyone stopped posting because of the plandemic arguments. It's not like we were talking about BBQ sauce.

I live in a small town with a lot of hostility. Lots of keep out signs and fences and dogs inside the fences. Lots of neighborhood watch signs. A lot of cop activity too but that's everywhere now. It seems that people want to have some kind of community activities but they hate and fear each other. ...

When I saw the title I thought it was a pron review (NTTAWWT).

Indeed.

They seem to have the creation of viruses dialed in.

It's on YT now, don't know for how long. It would have been a lot better without the voiceover and without attempting to explain things to people who aren't into PL and won't get it anyway. It paints a more complex picture of Louie Simmons and the Westside crew than the usual narratives. Pete Rubish...

These are amazing. Everyone in the iron game should watch The Commissioner of Power, which is about Terry Todd and some of the work he did to help lifters and preserve the history of strength sports. I just got done watching Fullsturker, about the manhood stones in Iceland, and Stoneland, about the ...

So what's the story there? He seemed okay in 2016.

I feel bad for anyone whose life choices led to the Florida panhandle.

I keep forgetting to get a heavy bag.

So I get the psychic energy thing that Benny refers to. I agree that we're in a really bad phase and I don't see a way out of it. There was a similar one in 1994. Not like this, I mean similar in the sense that it felt like an astrological event or something but the people I knew, all of whom felt i...

The next big one was after 9/11. It was more than the feds imposing a surveillance state, it was everywhere. Places you could just go became off limits to the likes of us and it wasn't that the people said, sorry, new directive, I know it's dumb, it's that they all embraced their new authority. They...

In my lifetime there have been a few sea changes in what I call the prevailing national mood in the U.S.. The first was in 1985. I don't know if it was related to Reagan's re-election or not but suddenly people were much more hostile, much colder, much more likely to call the cops . . .overall it wa...

I've been thinking about the theory that depression is repressed anger. I think that's right, at least for me. My anger turned inwards. I think if we had better avenues for expression of our needs we would still be screwed but we'd be able to think about things more clearly. "I don't get depres...

We're also driven crazy by the model of psychological well-being that we're told is right. A normal human isn't a happy zombie like a sitcom character. We have drives, feelings, urges. In WWII sailors cursed like sailors because they were in an insane situation. They had feelings and expressed those...

Change of pace but this appeals to me right now.
