I've run more @functionalfitnessleague matches and events than some experienced coaches have run classes, but this upcoming season means more to me than all prior combined.

Someone at the American Bar Association ate their Wheaties this morning.
ABA It has been three weeks since Inauguration Day. Most Americans recognize that newly elected leaders bring change. That is expected. But most Americans also expect that changes will take place in accordance with the rule of law and in an orderly manner that respects the lives of affected individuals and the work they have been asked to perform. Instead, we see wide-scale affronts to the rule of law itself, such as attacks on constitutionally protected birthright citizenship, the dismantling of USAID and the attempts to criminalize those who support lawful programs to eliminate bias and enhance diversity. We have seen attempts at wholesale dismantling of departments and entities created by Congress without seeking the required congressional approval to change the law. There are efforts to dismiss employees with little regard for the law and protections they merit, and social media announcements that disparage and appear to be motivated by a desire to inflame without any stated factual basis. This is chaotic. It may appeal to a few. But it is wrong. And most Americans recognize it is wrong. It is also contrary to the rule of law. The American Bar Association supports the rule of law. That means holding governments, including our own, accountable under law. We stand for a legal process that is orderly and fair. We have consistently urged the administrations of both parties to adhere to the rule of law. We stand in that familiar place again today. And we do not stand alone. Our courts stand for the rule of law as well.

When social media exposes traditional media’s deceit, it’s time for independent journalists to investigate why the press is backing a president who undermines free press—and is it coordinated?

I feel like there's not just 2, but 3 types of people based on how the received the #superbowl half time show @kendricklamar.bsky.social

1. hated it #maga
2. thought it was all about #drake
3. actually got it 🤯

I'm still unpacking how fking incredible it was but here's just a fraction so far...

The upside to Whistler prices skyrocketing? Time to explore new mountains 👀⛷️ Had some of my best runs ever at @ferniealpineresort—until day 3 hit -25 and 2/3 of the mountain stayed closed 🥶

I'll be back for Polar Peak laps one day 😬

Maybe it's the #adhd but it's only recently that I've started to understand there are people who actually have no empathy...

When a single billionaire can accumulate more money in 10 seconds than their employees make in one year, while workers struggle to meet the basic cost of rent and medicine, then yes, every billionaire really is a policy failure.

So when we remove birthright citizenship can we go by the mother? Because:

Don Jr was born in 1977
Ivanka was born in 1981
Eric was born in 1984

Ivana became a US citizen in 1988.

Barron was born in March 2006

Melania became a US citizen in July 2006.

Trump’s entire family would be deported.

two posts from threads first is from @camillecardonaa and says: I just found out that only 1.5% of Japan's population is Christian and I'm heartbroken. second is a reply from @orangedweller and says: Hi. Japan's homicide rate is 07% per 100K. United States homicide rate is 5.7% per 100K. Japan's unhoused population in 2024: 2,820. United States unhoused: 653,104. Japan also has one of the highest food security rates in the whole big world. Meanwhile, in the US, 18 million people are food insecure. Maybe this Sunday you can ask the Christians what their bible says about poor people and murder. Sorry bout your heart.

People not elected to government should not have the power to reshape the government, especially people whose obscene wealth depends on the government functioning a certain way.

This is not a hot take.

It's just plain common sense.

Post by Comrade Sisko “You didn’t hear about people being transgender until recently.” You didn’t hear about Antarctica until 1820 but it was probably there the whole time.
