If we get out and push, I bet we could

Oh geez man, I didn’t realize it was that intense. Get thee to physio! If it hurts that much on rotation something else is happening.

People get added to public lists with offensive or inaccurate titles by malicious people.

For instance, people who express support for Palestine might end up on an “antisemitic people to block” list, courtesy of some hard-right Israeli troll.

Discover is just an absolute cesspit of garbage accounts I would never, ever follow, ragebait, Hot Takes With Muted Replies, and people who somehow got on the feed being flamed out of existence.

It’s everything I hate about social media. Deleting it made bluesky bearable.

Nah, conservatives are desperation farmers.

Khan Academy, baby.

I’d have to check your fit. Question is are you sinking your heels or pointing your toes down slightly at full extension? Also would want to see your front to back position.

Check your cleat bolts, sometimes cleats can slip.

Gabriel Bauman @gabrielbauman.com · 2d

Oh good. Easy fix. The relief while pedaling is a blood flow thing. You’re injured, so take it easy for a few days, then dial in the fit.

Also butt and hip stretches are always a good idea

If it’s like a burning or radiating pain, it’ll be the sciatic nerve. If it’s more like a dull ache it’s prob bike fit issue… seat too high or cleat misalignment

Gabriel Bauman @gabrielbauman.com · 2d

Don’t ask how I know this.

Gabriel Bauman @gabrielbauman.com · 2d

Not a doc, but this sounds like you have a bike fit asymmetry. Adjust your cleats or seat lately? But the “it goes away while riding” thing sounds like sciatic nerve compression. Can be caused by tight glutes or piriformis. Stretch that ass out.

Where is the pain? Knee stiffness or…?

This is where AI comes in. If expertise lives outside of individuals, and opinion is based on trained and tilted models controlled by the rich, the electorate’s wishes cease to matter.

And education being crushed for two generations. And student debt. And Rush Limbaugh on AM radio. And Pentecostal church groupthink. And social media. And declining attention spans.

People aren’t fighting because they have been set up to be unable to reason about what’s in their interests.

Billy Idol cranked this morning

Gabriel Bauman @gabrielbauman.com · 2d

Yeah. It’s almost like they picked a compromised presidential figurehead knowing the dems would rage about his personal failings and spin in circles while the actual agenda sailed past them.

Epstein is one of many distractions. Trump is old. He’ll never face justice.

“But he’s a pedo!” We know.

Good morning, #newwest! How’s your day looking?

A quiet urban intersection at dawn in autumn, with a green traffic light, a few cars on the road, and a tall apartment building silhouetted against a glowing orange and blue sunrise sky. Streetlights are still on, and trees line both sides of the street. A calm, early-morning atmosphere.

Horsey afternoon

The document might exist, but no one is enforcing its rules. The USA is over.
