Batman v Superman – A Quick Thought
Not Enough
Do you sometimes feel like you’re not smart enough, not strong enough… not _ enough to do your pursuits?
At what point do you give up? I am so tired. The alternative – not pursuing what I want to do… is worse.
Argh,.
Naming Things Poorly
On Buying A New Vacuum Cleaner
Just happened.
Ooh, Dyson is on sale!
Yeah, no. Dyson sucks.
So, we’ll buy a Dyson?
Er, I mean, Dyson doesn’t suck.
So, we’ll buy a Dyson?
We’re buying a Miele instead. Because Miele vacuum cleaners are awesome at sucking.
Holy Crap I've Got Abs (Kinda)
In the span of a year, I went from looking like the picture on the left to looking like the picture on the right.
This blog post is what I did to get there.
I went from 80kg at about 24% body fat to 65kg at about 14-15% body fat. Most of this blog post will indicate a much higher start point (of which I didn't have a photo of), at 87kg and about 30% body fat. [Read More]YAGNI
An Apology
I made a mistake in posting a women-hostile picture on Twitter yesterday. This is an apology. But first, let’s start with a recap.
Yesterday I posted this tweet:

I first saw the picture on /r/funny. And I tweeted the picture after a brief view. I mainly tweeted the comic because I believe that politicking identity issues is generally a waste of time* Politicking of any issue is generally a waste of time, in my opinion. . I had neglected to notice that it came from @AntiFemComics.
This morning, a shitstorm ensued. I woke up and the first notification was from Nick Coghlan:
@chewxy Seriously, dude? You're going to blithely ignore all the evidence of structural biases and claim women just aren't interested?

Upon reading that, I went and re-read the comic. I realize the horror that I have in fact misread the comic. And the issue snowballed on. This blog post will stand as an official apology from me.
