On the Concept of "Choice"

Having just had a workout and taken a shower, I was eating a snack and rambling to myself (as I am wont to do) when I stumbled across an idea that sounded somewhat profound. Rather than letting it drift off into the ether, I decided to grab hold of it and expand on it here, for your entertainment and/or benefit. Strap in, my friends, for this might get weird. The specific line of thought that crossed my mind was this: The presence of choices does not indicate the presence o

I think I missed mentioning this before, but wow, this site's been up for more than a year now! It's incredible how quickly the time's gone by. My sincere thanks to anyone who's been sticking it out with me, especially given that my content of late has been rather one-dimensional. I really do have the intention of doing more stuff on here.

Since I'm set up to be at my destination for a while now, though, I should have some opportunities to make good on breaking up the constant stream of workout recap posts. I just won't be doing that today. Sunday Type: Pass/Fail Shoulder-width Handstand

Workout Recap - Week of July 29, 2018

Well, I'm late with this update again, but I have a reason for it this time. I've been preparing for my fourth and (hopefully) final trip in what has been a rather tumultuous year. I haven't even done anything yet to commemorate this site's anniversary! Nor have I done any miniature painting in about seven months, and my recipes and reviews have both been lacking of late, too. On the plus side, though, I've been pursuing certain interests in that silence, and I'm hopeful
