When your partner has a praise kink but you're Montessori trained so you know that praise is an ineffective way to encourage development and it's much more productive to acknowledge their effort so that they learn to effectively give themselves feedback so they can develop a healthy intrinsic motivation instead of deriving their self worth from labels put on them by other people .... "baby it's amazing how much you could last today compared to last week"

please please please please reblog if you’re a writer and have at some point felt like your writing is getting worse. I need to know if I’m the only one who’s struggling with these thoughts

All the Presidents of the United States are resurrected in the far future with their last memory being at the point of their death but in refreshed, youthful bodies. They’re dumped on a planet where they are told they must kill each other, Hunger Games style, until only one survivor remains…

General consensus in the comments says Theodore Roosevelt will win. Though Lincoln and Andrew Jackson are close contenders too

William Henry Harrison goin’ down first, though.

So Teddy is definitely the only one who was like. A fitness idol. (Because he was diagnosed with a weak heart as a child and believed he had cured it with exercise.) But a bunch of the others were former soldiers or otherwise athletic.

Eisenhower didn’t magically start out as a five star general, he was trained at West Point and that includes athletic training. Millard Fillmore grew up as a poor farm kid, so that means manual labor. And sure, Lincoln, famously built his own log cabin which means wood chopping.

Just saying that there’s ways of getting tough that aren’t quite as flashy.

Lincoln is also the INVENTOR OF THE CHOKESLAM.

There’s 3 things at play IMO. Physical ability, skill at fighting, and killer instinct. Teddy’s not winning because he’s in incredible shape, he’s winning because he’s the living embodiment of the villain from Jumanji. There’s going to be plenty of physically impressive dudes, even some with combat training or experience. Teddy’s out there deciding which President’s head would look best in his den.

This conversation always leaves out the part where Taft would go down first

Not because of his size, oh no. Plenty of big guys can handle themselves in a fight.

Taft is going down first because Teddy Roosevelt fucking HATED him

Calisthenics for Beginners (2023)

You can learn almost any exercise by building up with easier variations! Here are some examples.

Note: this is a short version of a 26-minute long video called "Home Workout for Beginners (2023)" on our YouTube channel. If you want more details, please check out that video or the Hybrid Routine page: https://www.hybridcalisthenics.com/routine I tried to fit what I can into a short video.

Also, yes my knees go in a bit more than I'd like during my intro jump when I stand up 😅. The one later is better.

We're going to try to schedule a large backlog of videos to post daily for a while! If anything seems out of order, that might be why. Follow for more - have a wonderful day!

talking to people while holding a beverage is awesome because you don't have to know what to do with your hands and when you don't know what to do with your face you can just take a sip

Under-giffed moments (6/?)

Arm cleaning his glasses

Someday I'm going to write a thirty-page treatise about what constitutes a wife in priest's stories, but in the meantime, enjoy my jokes about the main teen octet from Legend of Fei.

listen its about the last unicorn being fundamentally no different from the harpy and feeling more compassion for her than she does the trapped animals or the humans trapped by circumstance. it's about haggard grabbing the unicorn only once she has become human enough for him to drag her down and realise her eyes are empty. it's about schmendrick and the magic that lives in him more than he wields it, it's about "never run from anything immortal, it attracts their attention" while walking slowly from an unspeakable horror devouring an old woman, it's about "how dare you come to me now, when I am this?". it's about the unicorns staying in the water until they can't anymore, until the castle crumbles and the one unicorn who is different from the others now - she lowers her horn and she digs her hooves in and she stands her ground for a dear, dead boy. it's about the trade of immortality between schmendrick and the unicorn, it's about stories needing to be told, it's about lir loving the unicorn enough to know that she cannot stay with him, and to let her would be to do her a disservice.

it's about "your name is a golden bell hung in my heart. i would tear myself to pieces to call you once by your name." it's about regret.

(it's also about little 5 year old me renting the movie from the library whenever i could and watching it on loop for hours. it's about just how much this story has shaped me and my understanding of storytelling.)

You know what you REALLY can’t kill in a way that matters? Mint.

Mint ought to be the true symbol of resurrection. None of this Jesus stuff.

Things about Skinner that are always funny to me:

Gun Atthaphan the man that you are

Cr: snap_gun
