I just can't with the whole "this is morality" argument
When people kick in with this "how can you be moral without religion?" argument, they are such an easy read. Just because these people can't think for themselves and need to be spoon-fed morals doesn't mean we all need to be. Some of us use our brains.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie

Meanwhile, in OldMansVille, I hurt myself deadlifting today. I knew it was going to happen. When I bought my new car I pulled my weight belt out and stuffed it in my closet. I never put it back in the new car. So I says to myself "Self. You aren't lifting that heavy, you don't really need your belt." But I know not to deadlift without my belt. That shit holds my insides together. My back betrayed me and now I can't sit or stand without ridiculous pain. Not helping was the fact that I was slinging 45 pound engine heads at work because we are having a quarantine, and a whole bunch of them needed to be palletized. Fuck me.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Ouch, I've never wore a weights belt before but it's never been a problem for me
That said, I'm so weak it's not like I can lift anything that would do any damage

Only like 285 pounds (130 kg). Which sounds like a lot but isn't at all for deadlifting, and I weigh 190, so it's only 1.5x bodyweight. I was doing a Crossfit chaser called "Brenda." BW Bench press, .75x BW Power Clean, 1.5x BW Dead lift. 10-1 pyramid. My left knee has a tendency to dive towards my right because of all the surgeries, and it throws my body alignment off. I haven't deadlifted in over a year, and thought my old ass could jump right back in doing a workout for time.

Today... I pooped.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
