The BlackBear

Oh no! I certainly don't enjoy the aches and strains that seem to pop out of nowhere. If I'm going to be in pain I'd at least like to know how I did it. The UK currently says you can go to work if you feel able to, even if you test positive. It's lunacy. Getting my 4th jab on Thursday, so hopefully that won't mess me up too much.

Nice to see you too chief! I think there's a problem with long term TV, where the principal cast are all inherently 'good,' and super long lived elves, that just seems extremely hard to write. I find it hard to invest when the antagonists and protagonists almost never interact. In GoT/Dragons world, interpersonal conflict is easy, just make half/most of the cast bastards.

The new variants are all meant to be super contagious but with vaccination it shouldn't become serious disease.

Nooo! Rest up, drink lots of water all that stuff! (this is a socially distanced virtual hug) I finally got Covid a few months back, was very glad I was vaccinated. Knocked me out for a couple of days, and then a few when I felt fine but was still testing positive.

Man am I tired of living in interesting times. I'm doing alright, doing all the healthy things, but it's more or less a day to day vibe rn I might pirate it, not going to pay for yet another streaming service. I just can't get over how bad everyone seems to look with those wigs. RoP is not great, but I'll probably stick with it, if only stubbornness sake.

Hey gang! Did a bit of reading up on the new show ( I haven't watched any) and thought I'd pop in and say hi. I visited Dubrovnik a few years ago during a heatwave, and christ it was hot, but coastal so not too bad. Then we visited Kotor and it was like stepping into an oven.

Hey gang, shitty news this morning and thought I'd swing by and say hi. And I hope you're all safe and well.

I take the view that I want both of them to be good, I watch AEW rn because I enjoy it. I don't watch wwe for the opposite reason, but I would like to be in a position to look forward to wwe ppv's again. I pretty much only watch the rumble now. Do you have a view on the 'new' NXT direction?

It was a class show, every match was good if not great, including the big show squash (it was funny) if you find a way (legally or otherwise) the tag team match was amazing though. Really looking forward to tonights dynamite (which due to timezones I will watch tomorrow) Wrestling twitter are of course being incredibly weird losers about the company rivalry. I hate wrestling fans so much.

Went for a run yesterday for the first time in a while (holiday and general laziness) then squats today, had to bail on rdl because my hamstrings were complaining. Working out at home I'm realising my bench is too low for my rack, going to try and get some timber to raise it up, maybe glue some rubber sheeting to it for grip.

I think late September, presumably they have to work around the Paralympic games as well as the olympics.

Just so depressing to see no one learn the lessons in real-time. We invaded and dragged out the conflict so poorly, why shouldn't we also leave in the most irresponsible way possible? Big cities in the heat are the worst.

Well: Game changer

I would say that's a shore... Not too sure but coast for me implies the land is ringed by water, unlike a lake which water ringed by land. Hope you're keeping well, I've been feeling incredibly disheartened by all the Afghanistan shit. As the most recent cherry on top of all the disastrous conflicts, not to mention the worldwide disaster of climate change, I'm just really struggling to see any kind of future that isn't an inhumane hellscape.

Head hair, I just don't understand it. I had awful hair, I looked like a hobbit half the time. I regret never growing a mullet because I could absolutely have done a Jaromir Jagr. There are plenty of professionals who will deal with that, they just aren't hairdressers.
