Exercise can reduce the risk of cancer patients dying by a third,
stop tumours coming back
and is even more effective than drugs,
according to the results of a landmark trial that could transform health guidelines worldwide.

For this week's #MusicWomenWednesday, something with some real female RAGE. For the last couple days since it came out, I've been thoroughly enjoying Kitchener, Ontario's hardcore quintet BODY MINUS HEAD's debut LP 'An Exercise in Self-Sufficiency'. The whole band is tight and solid, but vocalist Alexandra Garvin really shines on this one. Her screams are unreal, and at …

Whenever I find myself falling out of love with New York, or with life (virtually the same thing), I slip a copy of Frank O’Hara’s Lunch Poems into my back pocket.

Is it weird that my occasionally dodgy* knee gets better when I exercise? Not running, but like, any kind of highish impact weight/cardio in a gym?
Sitting (and maybe standing) still for long periods seems to be an absolute killer...

If Trump embodies the theory of the “unitary executive,” it’s because conservative jurists like John Roberts and Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito have
— along with their Republican-appointed colleagues
— effectively rewritten the Constitution to allow for the exercise of virtually unaccountable power by Republican presidents.
Yes, you can attribute some of the worst of this administration to the specific authoritarian vision of Trump and his allies.
But a good deal of…

Damn, using the UK's visa app to read a passport chip via NFC is a pretty extreme exercise in frustration. Got locked out twice (on the backend by UK servers, not the app itself!) in my attempts, each with an hour wait to be unlocked.

E.M. Bounds: Weapon of Prayer:
>The Christian man must in all things, first of all, be conformed to the will of God, but nowhere shall this royal devotion be more evident than in the salvation of the race of men. This high partnership with God, as His vicegerents on earth, is to have its fullest, richest, and most efficient exercise in prayer for all men.

Today: one shower, two changes of clothing, one bagel, one trip to the market, one failed exercise walk, one load of laundry, one pair of wet AirPods. But: two naps. I’ll consider the day a success.

FFOTUS has tossed our US Constitution into the paper shredder and disclaimed any restraints on his powers.
OK. Then....
Congress can play the same game - it can hire its own armed forces. (How and where it gets the money is an exercise left to the reader.)
And generals, more likely colonels, in the US military can say "we don't need no stinkin' commander-in-chief to tells us what to do." This would bring on a good 'ol South American Banana Republic …

'[D]efending free and ethical journalism is ... a duty of all those who yearn for a solid and participatory democracy. Wherever a journalist is silenced, the democratic soul of a country is weakened. Freedom of the press is an inalienable common good. Those who conscientiously exercise this vocation cannot see their voices silenced by petty interests or fear of the truth.'

I went downstairs, filled the kettle, waited for it boil, and poured the water into my mug.
I then popped back upstairs for 5 minutes to let it brew. Went back down to the kitchen, gave it a stir. "Hmm this looks a bit weak".
I'd only forgotten to put a bloody tea bag in the mug at the start of the exercise, hadn't I.
Obviously I have now contacted the government and arranged to hand in my British passport.

Picked up a second hand #running buggy yesterday (Nipper Sport v4). Took little one for our first run together in the afternoon. It was fantastic. So happy to be able to exercise while giving C a break at the same time. Also excited to begin the journey of undoing the ‘Dad bod’. Next step is to see if I can bring our unruly Chocolate Lab along too 😅

Anyone noticed how the characters in the Alien movies (the ones about Rippley) got progressively dumber as new chapters were released?
Don't remember it? Try to watch them in a row, it's astonishing. It's a good "exercise" because them being part of the same series makes it much easier to make comparisons.
I'd say that's what makes a big difference between the first one and the rest, not the plot in itself, but how idiotic are the characters after the first chapter.

What is this type of helmet supposed to protect you from? Someone hitting you with a blunt object on the top of your head, because obviously they wouldn’t do it in the neck or over the ears? Worn by police SWAT team members in an exercise at Prague Castle.

whenever i hear people talk about ETSI i have to think - thanks to @… and john young - of this US Air Force intelligence lieutenant, who was heading the ETSI "lawful" interception working group in the late 2000s. the E in ETSI stands for European.

I used to think this was a great example of working in production. Now, it's more like day-to-day living with #longcovid
Lumbar puncture was today, so no exercise or working too hard for 48 hours. Not a bad thing, I suppose 🤔
