@hjluks I got similar advice for back pain. The PT basically said "guys don't work their glutes".

And for shoulders, "at the gym, pull more than push", and "guys work the chest, not much the back".

I'm giving both a good try. Back is now fine already (even 3 weeks in, it was fine).

@JoeAlger1 With inflation, would be 225 now. We have a ways to go.

@dreamredux404 Nobody knows this.

[Fietser Pete (Peter Som de Cerff) @psomdecerff]

@OverlordKego This is all spin. Nobody knows anything without a suspect.

@uglyuncle The anti-gun, let's-accept-everybody left?

@AustriDominus @sentdefender @EndGameWW3 Sarcasm?

@unknownn145 @Visa58993293 @yarbatman You say that like doubling oil prices wouldn’t be good for the planet overall.

@richwink1 @Leahgreenb OK, Boomer. You're still an Ayn Rand fan?

@NewsWire_US Great for blue states. Bad for already dumb red rural states.

[Fietser Pete (Peter Som de Cerff) @psomdecerff]

@Samwashusa @notcapnamerica Of course I would do this. I argue for car design constraints and vendor liability routinely.

[Fietser Pete (Peter Som de Cerff) @psomdecerff]

@linakhanFTC @FTC If only we made cars geo-fence speeds, detect drunks, sleepiness, and distraction...and auto-reported all that.

@poiThePoi @eaconner @PANYNJ @NJTurnpike It still manages to carry about 90K vehicles per day. Maybe that's both ways?

@mlatapapi8 @travis_robert Use it for going from somewhere nobody want to be, to someplace else nobody much wants to be, without going through anyplace anybody wants to be.

So, not cities.

[Fietser Pete (Peter Som de Cerff) @psomdecerff]

@mlatapapi8 @travis_robert These are city streets, which shouldn’t be roads.

Streets are for people.

[Fietser Pete (Peter Som de Cerff) @psomdecerff]

After decades of lock-step "build more roads" policies, finally we have a novel US data point, & no longer can this "American Exceptionalism" auto-focused stonewall hold.

[Fietser Pete (Peter Som de Cerff) @psomdecerff]

One thing is clear: Congestion Pricing in NYC has already opened a new Overton Window of city policies that will not easily be closed again.

@PplsCityCouncil Doesn't CA offer "last resort" insurance?

Doesn't FEMA often help the under-insured (even though arguably they should not)?

[Fietser Pete (Peter Som de Cerff) @psomdecerff]

@PplsCityCouncil @jdogzeenft Mostly you can, of course.

But I don't think FEMA should ever pay to rebuild - if FEMA buys a property, it should sit idle forever, or at least be ineligible for a future bail-out.

“We’re the most populous county in the state, most dense, and we don't have the ability to take mass transit rail service or a rail line into the city,” said Bergen County Executive Jim Tedesco. “And that’s just not fair.” https://t.co/eELjcj9VE7
