Not only did Keir Starmer accidentally put his dick in a meat grinder but someone had to point out to him that is dick is in a meat grinder.

The undisputed part she currently holds all of the major belts. All of them. As of right now. She didn't win all of them through her career. No she did win all of them one after each other without losing the previous one. That kind of great

Claressa Shields is the undisputed champion in the women's heavyweight category. She's 5 foot 8, really fit and weighs around 185 pounds naturally, I think. Very impressive. She clearly had many wins over much bigger opponents. She's a poster girl herself. A real talent

And now I've just made a clown of myself because Pavlick didn't start at 154 pounds like I thought but 168 pounds. He's the poster boy for the kind of boxer who has the potential to reach heavyweight in his career as he's getting thicker. Egg on my face

That is until he reaches a point where he clearly cannot get bigger unless he gets fat and that's where the heavyweight category begins. A small guy like Pacquiao will never have a chance to get near there unless its an opponent but a guy like Kelly Pavlick could have.

Unless a boxer starts big, as in 168 pounds and up, he will never be able to compete in his weight category for more than 4-5 years. He will have to go up, sometimes leaving a belt behind. He doesn't really have a choice. That's how it works. He's growing old and getting thicker

I'm watching some boxing and I had some thoughts about how the weight categories are sometimes part of the discourse around transgender and sports. An under discussed reality that is plain to see for fans of the sports

... since you can get the "Baie-Comeau" experiences in so many places that are actually much and much closer to you. We can't sell all of our woods to begin with, locally wood is cheap while it's definitely not on the market.

Seriously, if you think you can make a killing by building tiny homes out of pallets, you can come here and get a lot of them for real cheap but we all know it would be a terrible business decision since market...

For warmth? Around here we do it all year round and they tend to get bigger in the summer actually.
Many fireplace lovers assume burning wood for warmth is climate-friendly. But wood emits 2.5 times as much CO₂ than natural gas and 30 percent more than coal when burned for heat, according to some scientists. https://t.co/xGOlRgORbO

A brand new 300 meters Rolex dive watch really goes to 300 meters. That 300m is not really how deep you can dive with them but how deep they can go if you sink them on a fishing line. The arm movements of a diver, speed and force, can increase the pressure on the watch by lot.

And they did it with excellence in both cases. Making high quality watches and marketing them as more expensive then they already are

Not an expert on Rolex history but imo Rolex was founded by a guy who wanted to use marketing from the start as the solution to sell really high quality, durable & expensive tool watches to people who don't need them because the professionals are too small a market to succeed.

Since I do consider Rolex to be luxury despite not being one outside of marketing, I do think the smaller Rolex sister brand to be luxury too. It's hard to argue that watches that cost over 2k are not luxury but I do for real mid tier level Swiss brand but Rolex is not 1 of them

Let me acknowledge the fact I might find them alike because i think they are both overrated while having a deep cultural impact in their respective communities. It's possible. But I don't believe it's the case. There's something there
