Hey, Pobody's Nerfect

recently I started a new job that involves a lot of bending/twisting, and picking up heavy stuff, and the best way I could get myself to actually do the "lift with your knees not with your back" thing, because those instructions are kind of not detailed enough, was to instead put the instruction of "point your BUTT at the GROUND" which works better cos it makes more sense to conceptualize. trying to reach into a box under waist height? don't bend at the waist to do that, that'll hurt your back. because you stuck your butt out instead of down. instead you gotta point your butt at the ground and bend your knees instead.

Another way to think of it might be:

you are wearing a corset/safety vest/plate armour/super tight waistcoat that you’re not sure of/full binder or Spanx that you’re not 💯 sure of. Get to the ground without bending your waist and compromising this garment.

If this doesn’t mean anything particularly to you, because you haven’t worn one, then do feel free to purchase and wear a garment that forces a certain premeditation upon yourself.

Myself (and Charlie) wear an invisible corset, and use the resulting knee-movement to remind ourselves of how sexily supple and versatile we are in the knees and hips 😌

Killie would presume his back is straight and that his sit bones move down on command (as you do)

Someone like Derek, who is unsure of what “core muscles” are in the first place, might benefit from more severe instructions, like being told to balance an imaginary book on their head!

I saw this when running newpipe. But wait, it gets deeper. I clicked on the details buttons and it said as of today, we have 83 days left until Google rolls out this new requirement for apps inside and outside of the google play store. If any developer disagrees with their new terms and fees, they will be blocked!

I'll share some of the info below:

Looks like they're trying to nuke the remaining privacy and freedoms we have left on the internet.

What to do?

-Get your developer friends to not comply to their new guides

- Sign the open letter on the site and take action by checking out the full resources list on their website as well!

To summarize, this is all daunting especially when you feel all alone with unfair and inhumane regulations comming out faster than improvements but we got this working together!
