How Many Days Per Week Should I Exercise for Weight Loss?
Image by Fabiano Silva from Pixabay Let’s face it—losing weight isn’t exactly a walk in the park (though, hey, walking is a great start!). If you’re like me, you’ve probably asked yourself: “How often should I be hitting the gym or rolling out my yoga mat?” Trust me, I’ve been there, figuring it out while juggling everything else life throws my way. Here’s the short answer: 3 to 5 days a week…

A fun fact about me is that I can trace my family lineage (on my mother’s side) back to Rashi, and according to rabbinic tradition, Rashi could trace his lineage to King David. While this means I’m ineligible for the kingship of Israel (on account of being a descendant through my mother), I do however believe it gives me license to continue naming the gay fanfiction I write after King David’s poetry.
And you know what? I think Great Grandpa King David (was famously in love with his childhood best friend Jonathan) would be proud of me 🫡

hi! this is Insomniac Anon here!!! I noticed on some of ur artworks (specifically the unique magic posters), that u have a textured look to em, like paper or grain ... i wanted to ask how u get that effect? is it a brush, a filter, or like an overlay/png u use ... ? pls tell me!! ;v; I really like how the texture looks, so i wanted to know how 2 do it since ure a very big inspo 2 me LAWL ... I've been doing art practices in diff styles i find, so, i wanted to know a bit more how you do it :^D
thank you! :D :D :D it's usually photos/textures of paper that I've messed around with; I have a bunch of free/paid/ones I took myself. anytime I see good photos of paper I add it to the collection...it is my weakness. 😔
I mostly use Photoshop, but this should work in any program that supports blending modes (also I did this in like an hour to use as an example, please forgive it :')
image by itself before texturing:

with the texture pasted in (for this one I'm using this public domain one from Pexels):
Tumblr media
then mess around with the blending mode to see how it looks -- in this case I went with overlay, but soft light and hard light are usually good ones too, it really depends on the texture:

then with a bunch of messing around with opacity/colors/saturation/levels/adding in a bit more texture until I like how it looks:
Tumblr media
et voilà, texture! (waves hands)

Small but significant character moments that I actually really adore are from both the times we see the boys as tots. There is a reoccurrence that happens in both of them that I find so incredibly interesting.
For the turtle tot short, Splinter leaves the boys with weapons. In the short, Raph is the one who suggests they do “what Lou Jitsu would do” and Leo is the one who takes point when Splinter comes back to reprimand them. Leo, in taking point, is the one to defend them and get Splinter off their tails.
And then, in the flashback regarding the Kuroi Yōroi helmet, Raph is the one who grabs and throws “Skully” as a way to replace their missing ball which breaks it into pieces, but Leo is the one who speaks for the group and rushes into action to fix the teapot.
I love this for multiple reasons, but the biggest are how it shows that Raph has always been inclined toward the bold and fun and making the plans to include his brothers in what he loves and believes they’d love, whereas Leo has always been inclined to be the “Face” of the group and shoulder the attention even if it’s potentially negative all while coming up with on the spot attempts to fix the situation.
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt raph#rottmnt leo#rise Raph#rise leo#I really do love this bit of character writing a ton#again it’s so small but like this is consistent!#little Raph just wanted to have fun with his bros 😭#Leo immediately coming in with the save both times (and more - remember Bug Busters?)#I really love too how none of them pointed fingers like#it was Understood that Leo would speak for them#listen there’s a reason Leo is the Face Man and it’s NOT just because he’s got a pretty face#he can talk both himself and his fam out of situations and I wish we saw it even more because it’s amazing to witness#circling back to Raph his bold nature is something I ADORE about him but I don’t see it brought up a lot which makes me so sad#like this boy is a RAPHAEL he is bold!!#and it’s cute too how the other bros immediately go along with it too#imo the Raph in these tot flashback is the same Raph that glues them all together as a bonding exercise#side note but damn…Leo saves them from punishment in the tot short and immediately gets jumped 😔#but yeah man I think a Lot about the little dynamics between the bros and how those dynamics could have first came into being#Leo being the face of the team and having been it since childhood-#-makes all the moments of immediately choosing to sacrifice himself when HE royally messes up all the more notable#if it’s one bro or the whole group individually he’s more chill about it but often still lets himself be the talker to get them out of it#he will do his damndest to get his brothers and himself out of trouble but once they’re in it he’s in the front with a smile#his own safety be damned#Raph is actually the same in that respect - he’ll jump into danger fists first but all bets are off when a brother is in danger#and like how Leo’s been the face - as the eldest Raph has been the de facto leader of sorts#he’s the one who is shown to make up their games! and I think that’s very cute#anyway their clashing in the movie is so interesting for a lot of reasons but one of them is that it shows how-#-even a longstanding dynamic like Raph and Leo’s that’s WORKED for so long is still susceptible to flaws…and to time

reading an article on narcissus and goldmund and thinking "this is way too focused on jungian archetypes and not queer enough. also not batshit crazy enough"
#don't get me wrong the article wasn't bad in fact it was very interesting#but i think that looking at it solely from jungian lens (or other referencial material) doesn't do the book justice#also the anima and animus analysis imo doesn't often work#for the fact that 1. we have two characters who are presented as the opposites while both being men#who are two sides of the same coin/could be read as two halves of one person (I Need To Examine That More).#3. if we explore anima in goldmund... then wtf do we explore in narcissus? like ... the Default? the Man?#(tbh i think anima/animus are quite silly concepts despite being progressive then and jung def being onto something)#i actually like that the concepts of maternal (physical) and paternal (spiritual) worlds are in a way divorced from the gender#they're more like prevalent parts in individual humans (but innate to everyone in different proportions)#4. ultimately both represent two extremes to the point of not being ''realistic'' human beings at times#but still reaching to the other side/world because. well how can you live otherwise#narcissus with his love toward goldmund that retains his personhood and makes him question everything he believes in#golmund finding an outlet to the intense chaotic fleeting and cruel nature of material world in the form of art (partially spirit)#(also even prayers are presented as this kind of therapeudic quasi form of art which is interesting)#side note: it's a loss that we don't see TheSpirit in fem characters. there are moments that made me wonder that about lydia and lizbeth#but idk if that was the intention with them i might be reading too much into it#yet we have agnes who is in a way a reflection of goldmund equal to him... what a woman#txttag#narcissus and goldmund#hermann hesse#don't mind me i Still haven't processed this novel and i might have been ogre ulysses meme all these years#but im reluctant on reading about it because the novel is deeply personal to me and i wanna exercise my own thoughts#this time i just kinda stumbled upon it as i was looking for a (free) digital version of the book lmao#you used to be able to just google search an old book in russian and read/download it... what a shame

Hey, you're being lied to about what fitness constitutes. If you can't work in an hour-long crossfit slog, but you can work in a five-minute walk, then that is still fitness. If you can't use your legs but you can do arm circles every now and again, that is still fitness. If you're moving around at work, that's still fitness. It can be intentional or incidental, but here's the best part: your body doesn't care if you're dedicating specific work-out times. It doesn't care if the "only" fitness it gets is your nine to five on your feet. It doesn't care, fitness is fitness is fitness. Some of us do it differently, but the end result is more or less similar.
If you can do any type of fitness safely, your body isn't going to care if you're doing it like an Olympic athlete or if you're just a casual.
#fitness#gentle reminders#i hate hate hate the idea that fitness must be done Intentionally and in a Hegemonic Way#like... fitness is whatever you make of it and whatever you do#your body isn't going to be like 'well you walked for fove minutes but you didn't do shoulder presses at the gym so it doesn't count 😊'#if you want more specific forms of fitness then SURE you might want to do more specific exercises and activities#but if your goal is overall movement for however much if your body then... you don't Need to be THAT specific#and your goals may be specific for only parts of your body and that's GREAT!#a wheelchair user may for example do more arm exercises so they can use a manual chair for instance...#...and to many people i've noticed they don't think it 'counts' because the chair user isn't using 'all' of their body...#...but it's like... using your arms in non-powered chairs can be really important so like. it's still fitness.#you don't actually have to equally focus on everything if you don't want to or can't#all this to say that fitness is Not hegemonic and you don't need to feel shame about what you do or don't do#even a tiny tiny TINY amount is significant and matters <3#this is definitely something i've gotten more passionate about since becoming a ~gym bro~#because you see just how different people are and what they want out of fitness#and it's taught me a lot more about my own disabilities and how i work with (and even against) them to find balance#this is what i love about those fitness video games too! because they're often made to be engaging and fun!#i LOVED just dance as a kid and that was fitness merging with video games (and i loved video games (still do!))#and i HIGHLY recommend people get video games like just dance or that one nintendo ring game because of these elements!#it combines the comfort of home with movement with engaging music/story/video game elements#and things like that make me believe in peace and love and care on planet earth <<3

I'm having a lot of fun writing fan fic atm because it really is challenging me to write different kinds of characters and not just defaulting to what comes most easily to me. Pretty sure this is going to have a positive impact on my original fiction writing too.

woke up in a cold sweat finally knowing how to start chapter 2🙏
The ley lines had three jobs.
Securing the bunkers. Their web was kept under constant tension by the behemoths fighting to burrow deeper and deeper by merit of their screw like design. Each one pulling the others up by the lines as they tried to work themselves down.
Spreading excess load. The bunker's hearts were nuclear reactors that could spin up and drop off faster than any other renewable power source, but malfunctions happened, and the easiest way to prevent one heart bursting was to let spew as much energy as it needed to. Other bunkers with lower charges would get a surge that'd take a load off their own reactors and one day the network would repay them the same favor when their hearts raced.
Their final, vital, task was to raise the Mourners when all failed and part of the network was lost.
The Mourners were giants of shining white metal that rose from the ground at the intersections between the living and dead lines. Their heads always faced inwards, their bodies spun so that their funnels could catch every spare breeze that passed them. The ley lines couldn't be trusted to power them because the last heart would burst long before The Mourners' job was done.
They cried. The wind giving them their echoing, hitching, sobbing voices. The sheer volume was enough to deter anyone from standing within their guarded circle if their pained grieving wasn't enough to tell a would be corpse on the basest most instinctual level, that there was nothing of value left beyond their line. That the further you were from them, the safer you would be.
That pulsing cry, that warning that it was already far too late was all that throbbed through Lino's skull as he woke from what should have been his death.

I had a classmate teach me a neat trick for finding the Spanish a. You say the name Anna three different ways. The first uses the ash, [ænə], the second the low back a, [ɑnə], and then the third you advance a bit to be between the two for the Spanish a, [anə]. If you say [ʌnə] "uhna” you raised your tongue a bit too high.

lays on the ground,,,,,,,,, opimus,,
#been thinkin a lot abt what a fuckin tragedy he is#spending 9.5mil yrs Just being molded by what other ppl wanted even when he thought he was doing smth of his own volition#championing the autonomy part of autobots but never having true autonomy himself#& seeing himself Excercising that autonomy For the Sake Of Others as uniquely selfish#just bc it also benefits Him & grants Him the freedom he believes All sentient beings have a right to#which he can at least admit includes himself#& on the one hand of course being selfish is morally neutral in many circumstances & in a way exercising one's autonomy often Is selfish#on the other it's rough going reading that w the underlying implication of this being one of the very few times in his existence he's#Allowed himself to be selfish to such a degree; that he's been fighting for this thing he hasnt even allowed himself the liberty of Using#it comes with the territory of being the kind of leader he was shoved into being ig but that doesnt make it any less tragic#god not even getting into the whole thing of his own kind slowly coming to realize they actually really dont like what theyve essentially#made of him with their own demands n needs & expectations#so he rather quickly latches to the next positive view of him as a cope & it just happens to be deifying asf & gradually gets to his head#tries to live up to the new hype so much that he buys into it just as much as the fanatics & ultimately self-destructs bc of that#bc he spent so long being A Prime(tm) & can never truly go back to being Just A Guy but will always feel a need to be Needed#so when ppl Need him..... hes inclined to force himself to fit that need however he can. always has. thats how he got where he is.#'now that im free to be myself‚ who am i??' yknow????#which is why post!war!op is just a yumby thing for me.....#ooc. the robot gets me every time.

I've decided that writing Wylan is very fun and relatively easy for me, but it's also very soul-revealing becasue he has a deep desire to be perceived as competent and useful by the people he cares about the rest of the Crows and I unfortunately feel very seen about it :/
