Now not all their breads are quality. But damn if it’s not my go to now. Especially if you use it for grilled cheese sandwiches, holy crap is that bread super flavorful. Great burger buns too

Now I see that the Dave brand has been rolling out snacks. I’ve tried a few. Also damn good. Nut/seed based snacks. Might be a new go to

Feeling random so…

So I was watching the directors cut of Gods and Generals as they attack Mary’s Heights.

And I got to thinking…. The 20th Maine was in most of the famous battle that the Army of the Potomac had. Including two of the most brutal portions of the war in the charge at Fredericksburg and Little Round Top.

Per the movies, you’d think that the 20th Maine lost at least 3/4th of its men. We obviously know that’s not true.

So I looked at Wikipedia and got some stats.

41% of those who joined the 20th Maine (1600 men) were casualties. Nearly 400 were wounded in action which is by far the biggest category.

What really surprised me was that men who died from disease and combat were about even at around 145 men a piece. Now why that is surprising is that disease was far and away the biggest killer in the civil war. Only 1/6 of deaths in the war were combat deaths. Disease being responsible for the vast majority of deaths in the civil war.

I feel like I’m missing some metric or statistical concept here that I’m too sleepy to think about but do we think the 20 ME combat deaths were extra high or disease deaths low?

I like Predators a lot. But let’s not overlook Predator 2. Predator 2 is much much better than people give it credit for. It has soooo much character. Look at Bill Paxton’s character alone would be enough to make most movies.

Depends on the exercise for how exerting. I’m just getting back into working out regularly so I will say I am easily getting to my muscles stamina and not very muscular. I am also extremely long so I excel at something’s way better than others
Bicep curls - 40 (ok, if I wanted to do better posture, knock that to 35)
Lat pulldown - 130
Tricep Raise(two handed) - 50
Butterfly machine - 130
Dumbbell overhead press - 30/35

Definitely not trying to over extend myself on each set. End of the day I left actively sore (in a good feeling way) which is what I was looking for.

My thing is I think it takes people way too long to feel that way. Even when I worked out all the time in college and was in good shape, I’d still be there probably 30-45 minutes

What? If my muscles are starting to be tired, waiting a couple of minutes certainly makes the next set way way way way easier

So I just was at the gym. I did 6 upper body exercises. 20x3 for each exercise. I was done in 25 minutes and actually a bit sore cause changing things up.

What are the benefits of dragging this out to a 70 minute affair

Contempt. Not much sympathy at all for her

Spit porn is going to skyrocket after people see her in this movie

I started a spoiler thread for it FWIW
