So true. So damn true.
Once you start, and go long enough to feel the benefits (~3 weeks) you'll start looking forward to it.
Getting past that 1st few weeks of tough work makes all the difference.

How people survive in Kostiantynivka amid constant Russian air attacks.

The Russian army strikes the city with drones, artillery, and air bombs. The people who still remain there cook food over open fires, no longer react to drones, and hide from shelling in the basements of shattered buildings.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

Anorexic Skankism is an affliction with serious consequences exemplified by loathsome, hate-filled, human bullhorn, Megyn "The Celery String Diet" Kelly.
