G.O.P. Spending Bill Would Force $1 Billion Cut to D.C. Budget https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/10/world/europe/spending-bill-government-shutdown-dc-budget-cuts.html?unlocked_article_code=1.3U4.8pFw.TIGVj5LxeB0M

It doesn’t explicitly cut DC Police but the cut has to come from somewhere and it will be the police, city workers, and teachers:

"Given that the budget freeze would come six months into the city’s fiscal year, the District would need to scramble within a matter of days to find a billion dollars in savings between now and the end of September.

Since much of that money was tied up in contracts, leases and Medicaid, all of which take time to be accessible, local officials warned that the most immediate target for the cuts would be the salaries of city workers, including police officers and teachers.

“There’s no way to cut that kind of money in the time that we would have in this fiscal year not to affect police or not to affect teachers and not to affect some of the basic government services that allow us to keep our city clean, safe and beautiful,” said Ms. Bowser"

He also had images of kids that weren’t captured by the cameras, the creator of those images had already been arrested:

"Citing court records, KXAN-TV reported that among the files found on Wasek’s memory card were images of people who appeared to be prepubescent. Detectives from the Travis County Sheriff’s Office sent the images to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and compared the images to known victims in the center’s database. The comparison led to the identification of a girl aged 6 to 8 years old.

According to the television station, the girl had previously been recorded when she was 7 years old. The images were then distributed online, leading to the conviction of a suspect for two counts of production of child pornography, one count of distribution of child pornography and another count for possessing the content."

Rice and beans

Chicken (season and cook on a pan in the oven at high temperature)

Make soup

Stew (thicker soup)

Oatmeal for breakfast

While you’re bulking: pasta and bread

You can cook diced onions and other vegetables and add to pasta sauce to improve it

Yeah combat footage was on the news

When I went to Greece, I was surprised to see footage of the war on TV. In the US we’d never see anything like this. We are really isolated from the reality of what is going on in the world and the consequences of our actions. This makes it easier for our government to create policy that is wrong and immoral.

Just let them join NATO

I like driving in Reef Deckhand shoes, I have a pair without the insoles that I use for manual transmission. They’re similar to Vans slip-on’s, flat sole and made with materials that aren’t too stiff

These pipes are terrible quality

I mix half regular and half decaf and then drink more every morning. I slowly approach my desired caffeination level rather than shooting past it

I thought it was because of the soda’s viscosity

Training to failure is a pretty great idea for beginners and something that should be done often at any training age. Main reason being you need to take a set to within 3 reps of mechanical failure to get a proper growth stimulus. So you need to lean where the line actually is, and remind yourself often.

I need to admit I didn’t read your post well enough and so my response was a little off. I think it’s important to point out that when you say beginners should train to failure often, this doesn’t mean every workout or every set of every workout, it’s just a tool that lets you learn where failure is and how many reps you can perform. And there’s some debate in all of this, but I think it’s pretty well accepted that training to failure does not in itself provide results above other methods.

Training to failure doesn’t increase strength or hypertrophy according to Jordan and Austin (both medical doctors) at Barbell Medicine. https://forum.barbellmedicine.com/t/training-to-failure/11792

But they do use RPE where you estimate how close you are to failure in order to perform a number of reps for that set.

He thinks we’re probably living in a simulation so logically killing people wouldn’t be morally wrong to him.

I’ll download it twice

Or they know someone who bought a cyber truck. Passengers who accepted a ride. Children or family members who have no control over what the buyer does. Be realistic

Innocent people are being killed. Not really something to celebrate.
