Hey Perverts,
This is not your captain speaking, but I am on the mic nonetheless. I’m writing this as a means of procrastinating doing anything productive for the moment. I’m not bored, per se, I just don’t want to do anything, and social media is an energy drain. Threads is shiny and new and now very much a Twitter clone, complete with all the bots and trolls. Instagram’s algorithm cares nothing for diversity—I have worked meticulously to work the algorithm into showing me more tan, brown-, and dark-skinned women in my finsta’s For You page only to watch it snap back to a whole lot of whiteness the following day. tumblr’s still a garbage fire and Reddit’s, well, Reddit. I am, however, attempting to take Threads seriously for my business account to see if I can gain traction. We shall see.
Anybody workout for funsies? Coming off of being sick all week, I was excited to head to the gym today for deadlifts, still in recovery, all masked up. I told my partner we would be doing a maintenance day, but I felt so good after the first set, I said “fuck it, we ball” and started loading up the weight like normal. My partner was totally down. We’ve been hitting PRs every week in both our heavy squats and deadlifts, and she was eager to keep up the trend, as was I. Normally we do six sets and gradually amp up the weight while reducing the reps—typical pyramid-style sets—and I step up by twenty pounds each set while she steps up by ten. I, however, made a miscalculation in my starting weight, realizing this only after I completed my fourth set. It was my intention to hit my PR by set six, and instead I was going to overshoot it on set five. I needed to curb my enthusiasm due to the effort required of me to complete set four. When all was said and done, I managed to increase my reps at last week’s PR, but was too taxed to pick up the bar for my last set. No PR for me. Still, to go from one rep to four on my PR from one week to the next felt pretty good.
Okay, I think I’ve procrastinated enough for the moment. Next up: diving into some psychophysiological research before returning to dive into some delicious alt titties.
Happy Browsing! Your fellow perv,
nonsense.
Here’s some design work I made of @midnight while procrastinating with Procreate:
