I have too many hobbies, not enough time, a job in #UX that sometimes eats my brain, a brain that is wired weirdly.
I enjoy #weightlifting #knitting #fiberarts #videogames my partner and my dog. And maybe one or two other people.

That's it. I've done it : 205lbs 13" deadlift.
So I officially need a new goal for this year and it'll be 315lbs. #strongman #strongthem #weightlifting

Giving my #KoteCardigan a little block to see how the shoulders fit before working on the sleeves and the collar/front band. I made the body longer than the pattern calls for because I wanted a big cardi! #knitting #cables

#Strongfolk training day!
I did farmer walks with a 110lbs in each hand over 100ft, twice! And then I miraculously managed to pass the 150lbs over the 48" bar, twice in 3 attempts. I barely got it in my lap last week. So proud!

La nouvelle d'un projet de loi déposé ce matin pour limiter le droit de grève est à glacer le sang. La liberté d'association est enchâssée dans nos chartes, et se doit d'être respectée. C'est une attaque frontale aux travailleuses et travailleurs de la part de la CAQ. #polqc #syndqc

Sometimes I wish I could be a white guy, because you can be mediocre with a shit attitude and still have authority and given more credit in area you are incomoerent when given fact by professional and specialist. #WorkRant

Did I share that on Saturday I managed to lift on my knees a sandbag of 150lbs? Because I did. I couldn't lift it though.

That was a long week, but I also did a bunch of switches in my IT life. Switching to Graphene OS has been awesome. Switching from OneDrive to pCloud too. My personal laptop is now back on Fedora (after I didn't used a Linux distro for over 10 years!)

Did I spent most my Sunday degoogling my phone. Yes I have. I switched to #GrapheneOS. Still annoying how much we rely on some of their apps for the day to day because they are easy to use. #degoogling

This week has been so brutal that even training has been draining. But, today I have managed the yoke at 290lbs over 50ft, then 3 sets with 110lbs atlas stone : 3 reps, and the two other a 2 reps. So I'll take it. #strongthem #strongman #weightlifting

Je crois que le truc qui me stresse le plus avec ce qui se passe au USA c'est que quand on parle et qu'on dit que ça nous angoisse, on se fait dire par ceux (qui se sentent pas concernés semble-t-il) qu'on est alarmiste et qu'on exagère. Alors que c'est un preview du Canada avec Poilievre. #canpol
