📚🪱 @upbeatbubble.bsky.social · 12hFun fact, we actually just two weeks ago brought in a stray who came to to me, meowing and hungry for food and love. One of my best friends since high school has kiddos who have been begging her for a cat, so he ended up home with them. I initially called him Cow, but they renamed him Wicket. 010

My partner: I love him! What subreddit is that? Me: This is our local kitty rescue site. My partner: .....Well. This changes things. 150

📚🪱 @upbeatbubble.bsky.social · 19/09/2026This is clearly a systemic issue with this gym because what do you mean you're listening to one man who hasn't even been to that class before instead of the gaggle of women who go every week? (I talked with a few of them after class - he was new.) Truly, what the fuck? 010
📚🪱 @upbeatbubble.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Because of the aforementioned creepass old man, my gym buddy and I tried a 75-min hot yoga class this morning instead. It's usually ~90° but today was nearing 100°+. Instructor asked if we wanted the doors open to cool off a little. All the women said yes; one man said no. The doors stayed closed. 100

📚🪱 @upbeatbubble.bsky.social · 12/09/2026There's not really anything to be done about this (partner and I plan to move back to my old neck of the woods asap, anyway), since no one is willing to hold this neanderthal accountable. For clarity, he's not the only one, he's just the most persistent. NEVER had this issue at my old gym. 100
📚🪱 @upbeatbubble.bsky.social · 12/09/2026I have tried to push through it and get the most from my workouts despite this, and I've cobbled together a reasonable new routine, but that creep was back in class this morning and I just couldn't do it.
