Who needs a "Winter Arc" when they've been at it all year? Today told me I need a deload and some food instead.

The career strategy works in DC: 1. Plagiarize/steal/take the work and ideas of the actual experts on a topic. 2. Use it in self-serving and career-enhancing ways. 3. Give no credit or acknowledgement to the actual experts who did the work. 4. Actively keep real experts from advancing their careers

Crushed squats and bench today. New working weights. Five sets each. Managed extra reps on the fifth set on each. It was hard, but felt damn good.

"Herbal" Carmen @herbcarmen.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

That moment 35 min into your workout and realize you still have four more sets of bench press, five sets of deadlifts, and three sets of chin-ups left. And you say to yourself, "Ooooof. Maybe putting heavy squats and bench and volume deadlifts on the same day wasn't the best programming choice."

5:15 session my trainer juiced on a banana and 600mg of caffeine with 2 hours of sleep. Crushed it. Squats are moving strong. Good bench training, too.

Want to better understand the logistics problem the Navy is facing today? Spend 30 minutes watching Sal Mercogliano in this episode of "What's Going On With Shipping." Hint: it's access, capacity, and the tyranny of distance. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FT78...

Good point from @nicholasgrossman.bsky.social here: Trump's usual corrupt machinations can't rescue him from failure in Iran. "Interstate war is the highest level of competition — there’s no system to manipulate, no entity that can bail him out. That leaves surrender." All that leaves is lying.

Hot take: the Ford Bronco Sport fills the market that the pre-2013 Toyota RAV4 and Honda CRV once filled before the RAV4 and CRV became commodity appliances.

Me in my head during bench press: Damn, why am I only getting 8 reps at 125. I should be getting 10 reps. Me, checking the weight on the bar after my set: You idiot, you have 135 on the bar.
