Did something I’ve never done and walked out of the gym mid workout. 5pm is always crowded but this was different: I’m warming up on the treadmill eyeing the leg extension machine, creepy guy training his rotund teenage-looking girlfriend on it. I ask him “How many more sets?” and he says “We just started” which I know isn’t true, but it’s clear that’s all the English he can slap together so I wait 10 minutes for them to finish. When they finish some MS-13 looking guy tatted from head to toe cuts in front of me, I ask “Can I work in?” but he ignores me and gets right back on the machine. He’s wearing AirPods so I think maybe he didn’t hear me, I ask again “How many more sets?” and this time he stares me down like he wants to fight and gets back on again. Then I look around at the sea of non-English speakers, smelling like weed and wearing pajamas, slumped over TikTok instead of re-racking their weights, and I decide that instead of going to war with a psychopath over the leg extension machine, I’m out. Went home and took a walk instead. There’s a solution to this: Work out at 6am when the riffraff isn’t there. Problem is I don’t always feel like doing that, I do my best creative work at night so going to bed early is a big sacrifice. Not an ideal solution but at least there’s a solution available – what about sharing roads with these people, or schools, or hospitals, or car insurance premiums because they never buy it, or a hundred other things? It’s a tax we pay every minute of every day while everything gets worse. It took one decade for a guy like me who brings excellence to the symphony stage and my local gym to go from being respected and revered to being resented and ridiculed. My empathy and compassion are at an all-time low and I expend enormous energy suppressing my contempt for all the powerful people who continue letting this happen. I’m not wealthy enough to insulate myself from the perils of bad policy – I’m a man of the people, always have been and always will be, it’s just not getting any easier. Saying “they have to go back” doesn’t begin to describe the problem: The real problem is they shouldn’t have been here to begin with. I’m all for the best and brightest coming here with something to contribute, but if you can’t share a machine at the gym, why would I want to share a country with you?

The tomb is empty!

🚨 New look at the Numenoreans in ‘The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power’ Season 3

“I’m not sorry at all. Stay mad”

Zoomer is not a good faith interloctur. Almost all Orthodox clergy are educated. My guess is he thinks cause we emphasize mystery we hate educate. As for laity we dont have a lengthy catechism for our laity to be "uneducated" but ultimately doesnt matter. Zoomer is elitist snob
