What's your method of enjoying (or at least tolerating) physical exercise?

  • I've always loved sports; so that part's easy, personally. But I've also learned to kind of savor the feeling of using my muscles and getting tired. Whatever I'm doing, or even on days where I didn't have time to "exercise", I make a point to check in on different parts of my body, maybe tense them or stretch; just trying to notice what feels good and then really savor that feeling. I find that building that mental practice helps motivate me to seek out exercise, or power through when I'm not really enjoying a particular activity.

  • Cool story, bro. How do you propose to do that? You got a magic wand? How many of those ballot initiatives failed this time around?

  • Some level of election reform will be on the ballot in 9 states this fall. Make sure you vote, if you can!

    Also worth noting that these efforts are generally led mainly by democrats, with support from some moderate republicans. In contrast, 10 republican-led state legistatures have passed outright bans on RCV. One of these parties is not like the other!

    • Should we stop splitting sports by gender and just let everybody compete together?

  • Nope, but as with so many discussions of this nature, this question misses the nuance of why women's sports exist.

  • Didn't see the NPR article, but this absolutely rings true to me. I live in a blue city in a red state. We were littered by Green Party ads for the primaries that were funded by right wing groups. I wouldn't say that the far left and far right are working together, but the right is for sure posing as leftist in local outlets and actively encouranging the left's tendency to eat their own.
