It’s a hybrid cafe/community space/exhibition area: Criwdem Celf. I’d seen that they put on an open mic every month and decided it was time for me to put myself out there, so to speak.

The whole concept of Wyrd Daze as a platform for me to express my creativity and share the creativity of others was born there.

It s not a pull-up or a chin-up, it s just grabbing the bar and hanging for as long as you can. I had to work up to my full weight, but then I ve been increasing the time I hang. I m up to 30 seconds on most days. I take ...

I count left-right as one rep, so my 75-rep target means 150 individual counts. On a good morning, when I can muster the energy, I get up to a 150 count (75 per arm). Most mornings I’m good for a 100 count (50 per arm). The muscles aren’t the ...

It s a fairly simple concept. Gravity pulls the weight down, you pull it up and (if you re doing it right) when you lower it, you go slowly, defying gravity the whole time. The key is Tension. It s not about the ...

Someone said something online — maybe it was clumsy, maybe it was genuinely offensive, maybe it was a joke that didn’t land — and now the Compassionate Hatemonger has found it. Within hours, the machinery is running. The offending post is shared with breathless commentary. A list ...

When Donald Trump Jr. stood at a Saudi business summit in October 2025 and called No Kings protesters “older and fatter,” that was mockery. The room already agreed with him. Nobody in Riyadh was deciding whether American protesters had a point. He was playing to ...

Existential threat. Existential crisis. Existential danger to our democracy. Biden used it. Harris used it. Every cable news anchor with a teleprompter used it. They used it so often, and so loosely, that your average ...
