Thrive to spite them

I found a really good youtube fitness channel that has a lot of physical therapy type routines a long with regular work outs called HAS Fit.

I got M to try the one for lower back pain with me and then I did the one for hips...my hips get super sore after standing all day. And it was easy to follow and it felt really nice. They have a routine for plantar fasciitis I'm going to try .. maybe tonight.

So if anyone needs some physio type exercises or wants to try something different than what they gave been doing. I'd recommend them.

I've done of their chair based cardio exercises when my feet were really hurting me (didn't see their plantar fasciitis ones or I would have tried that) and I could follow them and felt a work out and liked the instructors.

I also wanted to see Harris tear Pence to shreds but I know if she did she would have been completely vilified by a lot of people. I already saw reactions that she was too aggressive/mean whatever form several assholes.

I wish they would get moderators for these debates who weren't afraid to moderate correctly.

Trump has refused to do the next debate because they changed it to virtual. I'm grateful that I don't have to endure another one. It wouldn't be so unwatchable if they had competent moderation, and shock collars.

I saw a comment that the fly spent more time on Pence's head than he spent on the pandemic.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I've been seeing polls that men are about evenly divided on the debate, but women overwhelmingly sided with Harris.

Gee, who could have predicted that women across the country might find common ground with a female candidate being frustrated with a man interrupting, speaking over, and condescending to her when she's trying to explain her views? Certainly not Pence or whoever helped him come up with his debate strategy.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

My great aunt Carmella passed away this week. She was 92, and it isn't a big shock but she was kind and wonderful and will be missed. Of course no one on my father's side of the family thought to inform me. Mom called after she read it in the paper. She was an Italian who married into the Irish side of my family and I loved going to her house as a kid not just because she was so warm and welcoming but because I knew there would be food I would like.

I'm sorry, sj.

I did not watch the debate. I occasionally checked out KB Spangler's twitter feed, as she does good recaps of that kinda thing. Her thread starts here: [link]

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Is there a reliable source of how much time each candidate spent speaking? I was googling earlier but couldn't find it.

Ann, that's a ferret.

My condolences, sj.

Also, according to CNN, Pence spoke for 3 seconds more than Harris.
