do you have any advice for people looking to get into running but are extremely out of shape and overweight? like best ways you think to start slow without hurting yourself and build on it

Hi! Every time I get an ask from someone wanting to get into running it makes my day 100x better thank you sooo much for asking ❤️

I don't know what your definition of "extremely out of shape" is, but if you currently can't handle running for an extended period of time, work your way up with long walks, or walk + run intervals, until you can handle 30+ mins of continuous exercise. GET RUNNING SHOES FOR THAT ALSO. Your body will thank you.

My general beginner running tips post applies + I really recommend paying extra attention to joint care. Running is an extremely high-impact activity — you're slamming your entire weight on the ground 100+ times a minute, and the greater your weight the bigger the strain. I can't stress enough the importance of keeping your runs shorts at first and listening to your body (15 mins 3/4 x week is already a lot!) but generally, strengthening your lower body goes a long way towards healthy knee joints.

Strength: I've already recommended Jay Johnson's Strenght & Mobility routine, but if you're feeling fancy I'd also suggest working your way up to weighted squats, lunges, and romanian deadlifts (2-3 sets, 6-8 reps, using whatever you've got around the house that can serve as a weight). As I said in the og post, I can't recommend enough looking into core activation, which will help a lot if you have breasts that bounce when you run. Big boobs back pain is real.

Chafing prevention: this can be a bitch, unfortunately. Jiggly bits (inner thighs, skin folds, breasts) can chafe a lot, and if possible get leggings / shorts / bras with as few seams as possible and anti-glide gel — if you have declathon in your country, their anti-chafe cream is good and pretty cheap. If you have never heard of declathon, you're probably in the US and I know there are good brands over there also. (This part is unfortunately born out of anecdotal evidence, i.e. my dad, who went on a 10km jog and then couldn't walk for like a week. Chafing is the crotch killer)

Stretching! I'm a hypocrite and don't stretch nearly as much as I should, but don't be like me. Some stretching tips from sports physiologist / very Fast Guy Pete Pfitzinger under the cut.

Again I'm very flattered you asked me!! GOOD LUCK lmk how it goes <3

someone is charging $500 for this Mélodie Daoust card on eBay and I bought the exact same card from someone else on eBay for $15 😂 the way some folks know nothing about the women’s hockey card market and just assume a card is worth a lot because of, in this case, a player retiring or they have a really recognizable name in the sport. yes, it’s a rad card that would’ve been tough to get last year when this set came out given these cards were 1:320 packs but it’s not even close to being worth $500…..

There's an old cartoon comic from the early EARLY days of this game's existence which implies that Creepers will camp outside your small early-game house day and night until you invariably run some risk of walking outside and - even when the sun is up - getting hit by their explosion.

As an Alpha player, until I started gathering the Alpha 1.2 screenshots needed for the media haul I've been posting this month, I had no idea how true that comic was.

I'm thinking about my next tattoo and I think I know placement, but I want it to involve the western red lily (a kind of tiger lily, a native lily of Saskatchewan) and some plant from Alberta (maybe fireweed or sagebrush) but also possibly an actual tiger among or entwined with the plants or as a separate tattoo. It's another idea that would have a lot of personal meaning/symbolism but I can't decide yet if I wanna go the pure botanical route or let myself branch into creature as well

Here is my suspected sequence of events (conjecture, purely)

Person ordered a ThinkPad w/ BYO custom specs, considering it's an AMD w/ a discrete GPU and a touch screen

Person accidentally specced it with the wrong PSU, or was sent the wrong PSU on accident, didn't realize that this model cannot charge off USB-C, and returned it thinking the battery was a dud, to buy something else

Battery was tested by Lenovo workers on a power dock or a normal cable used for servicing, or battery was replaced, and no one noticed the USB-C cable was wrong

It was sold as refurbished w/ a heavy discount partly because of its screen being one of their lower-tier offerings and, presumably, from light use and/or a replaced battery, and shipped w/ the same incompatible USB-C cable

I proceed to receive a laptop that appears to be completely unused but with an incompatible charging cable, cannot replace cable, only option is to return it "because it's refurbished" and I am not allowed to exchange the cable alone, per Lenovo's rules (customer support people were very helpful and nice tho)

Now I need to buy a $125 power supply cable because I can't just exchange it

like I said, purely conjecture, but I wouldn't be surprised. It's either that or it was just a normal open box or light use return and one of the workers accidentally made a mistake in shipping with no easy solution on my end because of Lenovo's dumb rules lol
