I’m a personal trainer, I’ve destroyed two lumbar discs, gotten disc replacement surgery and currently working with a physiotherapist to get back on track. Back pain can have many causes. Anything from disc degeneration to muscle imbalances. If you’re not in pain that prevents you from doing them, there are a few exercises my physiotherapist has me doing.

• Glute bridge to activate your glutes. Underactive glutes can cause you to compensate with your lower back muscles, causing overuse.
• Prone cobra for strengthening your back muscles.
• Plank and side plank for strengthening your abdominals, obliques and deeper core muscles
• Lying hamstring stretch. Tight hamstrings, common in people who are sedentary or sit a lot for work, can cause referred lower back pain.
• Kneeling hip flexor stretch. Hip flexors are also commonly tight in people who are sedentary or sit a lot. Can cause a muscle imbalance with the posterior chain, altering the length-tension relationship in the muscles.

But if you have more severe lower back pain, go see a doctor and get an MRI if necessary to find out if there’s something going on with your discs. Don’t just try to work through pain and ignore the problem. That’s what I did, and it just made things worse. You may not necessarily need surgery, but it’s good to find the root cause so you know what options you have.

This is all theater by the CCP to distract from the fact that they sentenced him to a de facto death sentence.

Can you mention some of the changes you’ve made? Maybe it would help someone who might read this comment chain.

What one? What desert?

In order to provide a “yes, this person is over 18” service for a vendor, the vendor has to know which real name (or other personally identifiable piece of information) to look up, don’t they?

So if you have to provide the vendor with a real name, phone number, ID card number or selfie that identifies the account “draco_aeneus@mander.xyz” with “John Doe/555-4556/X1234567” that eliminates your anonymity, they’ve accomplished surveillance over your personal opinions and whatever other content you share. The real problem isn’t age verification, the problem is they’re trying to eliminate anonymity.

Yes, it’s encrypted. Wouldn’t be much of a point if it was just plaintext.

Neon lights? Sorry, that’s only covered by the Premium Plus Elite membership.

O’Brien would like to enter the competition, but he’s busy being tortured in a Cardassian prison.

For a long time I went with IBM, then Hitachi when they bought IBM’s HDD division. Never had a problem with them. Though there was the infamous “Deathstar” and the click of death.

Aggressive. Adversarial.

And then wonder why you haven’t built a statue of him.

Not saying you’re wrong, but sometimes when you lose someone important, you compartmentalize it so hard you’re basically denying to yourself that it happened. The ugly crying and breakdowns sometimes happen later, when it really sinks in.

Hoping for the best with your little guy.
