Went to training with Paula this morning. The circuit was
- split squats (body weight)
- suitcase carry ... 10+-ish kilos, probably
- deadlifts - 10x32, 5x32 + 5x??, 5x40
- landmine press 10x5, 10x7.5, 10x10 (+ 10kg barbell weight)
- ring rows (body weight)
I am: tired. But I'm excessively pleased by the fact that I can still deadlift 40kg, I didn't think I still had that capacity. And, turns out... not only I do, but I could have lifted heavier.
But, I should definitely have showered just when I was coming home rather than having lunch first. Because my whole afternoon kind of got fucked by "... but I need to shower first", and I'm still in my bathrobe at 5PM. Oops.
Prepared the tax declaration documents, wooo! Always a bit brain-complicated for REASONS, but there, it's almost done (I only miss a paper that I asked for.)
Writever
Writever today is "Margins"
"Isn't it weird that life on Ægir is entirely aquatic, and that nothing apparently ever got the idea of conquering their continents?
— It's not that weird if you consider the geology of it. Here on Earth, our plates are well behaved, we have continental margins between the continental and oceanic crust, so the transition is, in practice, reasonably smooth. On Ægir, it just... drops abruptly. Or, from the Ægian perspective, their world is surrounded by huge walls.
— It's still weird they went to space before exploring their surface.
— And as weird for them it took us so long to explore the depths of our oceans..."
I'm cheating a bit: this is a bit longer than the one I posted on Mastodon, due to my server's character count constraints. But, I like it better this way :)
