I have too many hobbies, not enough time, a job in #UX that sometimes eats my brain, a brain that is weirdly wired.
I enjoy #weightlifting #knitting #fiberarts #videogames my partner and my dog. And maybe one or two other people.

Today's PR : Yoke cary over 100ft at 310lbs (140kg)
I also manage to lap 5he 180lbs atlas stone twice, not too far from lifting it!!

That's it. I've done it : 205lbs 13" deadlift.
So I officially need a new goal for this year and it'll be 315lbs. #strongman #strongthem #weightlifting

Giving my #KoteCardigan a little block to see how the shoulders fit before working on the sleeves and the collar/front band. I made the body longer than the pattern calls for because I wanted a big cardi! #knitting #cables

Earlier this week, I worked on my rack pulls and I can now manage them at 165lbs with straps. I think I'll have to change my dead lift goal for this year from 200lbs to maybe 250 or 280. I have whole new appreciation for my body since I started strongman training. It's a great thing.

#Strongfolk training day!
I did farmer walks with a 110lbs in each hand over 100ft, twice! And then I miraculously managed to pass the 150lbs over the 48" bar, twice in 3 attempts. I barely got it in my lap last week. So proud!

@bomkatt @___friday That doesn't happened to me often but it is such a weird feeling that brought me a lot of cognitive dissonance after years of being belittled professionally by incompetent guys. Cue : imposter syndrom

Sometimes I wish I could be a white guy, because you can be mediocre with a shit attitude and still have authority and given more credit in area you are incomoerent when given fact by professional and specialist. #WorkRant

Quoting any section of @mia’s incredible essay feels like I’m doing it a disservice; I’ve read it several times, and I expect I’ll read it at least a few more.

With all that said, this is the section that I’m thinking about right now.

Tech continues to be political

And the politics aren't looking great

Honestly amazed at how much more user friendly it is nowadays too, compared to my last experiences.
Kicking out all AI related stuff forced on us through operating system is like going on a holiday. I use them I want to, not because I have to and that's how it should be.

That was a long week, but I also did a bunch of switches in my IT life. Switching to Graphene OS has been awesome. Switching from OneDrive to pCloud too. My personal laptop is now back on Fedora (after I didn't used a Linux distro for over 10 years!)
