I thought this was a sports-related joke, which was only possible due to both my ignorance of sports, and my ignorance of peppers.

I'm not a The Onion guy, generally, but this was quite good. Much better and funnier than I expected.

It's fucking absurd that Jackson Browne wrote this song when he was 16 years old. Middle-aged men spend decades trying to write something this weary.

Specifically, Nippard recommends benching 85% of one's ORM, for four sets of six reps. Solomon had some issues with that, lol.

I'll give you the cliffnotes:

Nippard hired Solomon several times to review his training programs, then asked Solomon to remove all mention of him from his bio/testimonials. He threw some shade, so Solomon broke down one of his programs: a bench press program where Jeff recommends inhuman lifting

He's a fucking idiot, but this science-based lifting drama is gold. Everyone involved is rolling in the dirt with Greg, and it's so funny.

@ricketyshack.ca @mentoch.bsky.social The top comment on Greg Doucette's latest video about Dr Mike and Jeff Nippard. Made me laugh.

(This is in no way an endorsement of Greg Doucette.)

This is insane. The guy whose views got rationalised as 'he's just telling young men to clean their room!' is dying from the Didn't Clean His Room virus.

News footage from Portland shows a calm, tranquil city. But an AI video that Stephen Miller texted to Donald Trump shows the city as a burning hellhole. The truth may lie somewhere in between.

I feel like you took my criticism of an e-celeb very personally, but fair enough.

The Naked Gambler @nakedgambling.bsky.social · 1d

You could interact without speaking to me like I'm a moron, yeah. Again, you showed up in my mentions with a lot of aggression and I've tried to be civil about it. I've also tried to clarify my intentions, because you seem to think I really have it out for the guy. I don't. Sincerely.

The Naked Gambler @nakedgambling.bsky.social · 1d

Projection because you're talking to me as if I'm one of the conservative goons who just looks for things to criticise Hasan for due to his politics. I'm not, and I didn't. Usually we have similar views so I'm trying to express this nicely, but being shitty in my mentions benefits no one.

1 1

The Naked Gambler @nakedgambling.bsky.social · 1d

I said he was aggressive, yeah, I never mentioned you or your cat. I feel like you probably have some good arguments you could direct at conservatives who are looking for an excuse to slander Hasan. But I'm not a conservative nitpicker, so why is it that you're directing this at me?

1

The Naked Gambler @nakedgambling.bsky.social · 1d

You can stop trying to put words in my mouth. I'm not a conservative trying to play gotcha with Hasan, I'm much closer to him politically than pretty much all of his critics. I also said nothing about your cat. That's projection.

The Naked Gambler @nakedgambling.bsky.social · 1d

I like Hasan, I'm not trying to nitpick him for his politics. Can't it be simultaneously true that 1) people are looking for excuses to attack him, and 2) he behaved badly towards his dog?

If he acknowledged he should have reacted, doesn't that mean he agrees?

1 1

The Naked Gambler @nakedgambling.bsky.social · 1d

No, he doesn't have to be perfect. But if his dog is yelping and his response is 'you're such a baby' and 0 concern, then yeah, I think that's a red flag. If I saw a friend of mine act like that toward their dog, I'd think it was a red flag from them, too.
