This is as reductive as when people say religion is what causes all wars. Humans cause war. Race, religion, nationality, money, power,etc. All of them,and more, have been used as pretexts for war.

More of a regular thing for me than annual. It’s primarily Doctors without Borders and some international charities,mainly for the middle east. A while back my wife and I paid for some wells for some villages in Pakistan.

Your title made me chuckle.

Bed is life.

I mean sure, but redrawing them based on ethnic backgrounds isn’t the way to go either.

Idk that sounds a lot like just creating more regional division. At the end of the day they are all Syrian, regardless of religion or ethnicity. I’m not knowledgeable enough to say your solution won’t work or is a bad idea, just a bit doubtful.

Given HTS historical ties to exteemist groups like Al Qaeda I do hope this is a good thing for all Syrians. Time will tell.

That’s both a powerful and incredibly sombre quote.

And then send settlers to settle in the dudes house.

Could be a case of them interviewing a lot of people. Keep in mind a lot of people go on vacation this time of year and depending on the company/industry it could also mean this is peak season for them. I wouldn’t look too much into it.

Best of luck, hope you get it.

My PC has a secondary HDD that has my files. Movies, books, comics, TV shows, random stuff, etc. It’s more or less organized in their own folders.

My wife and I have pensions plans. We won’t retire for another 35 or 40 years but that’s the plan.

Man this community is going to have a lot of content for the next 4 years.

I’ve been buying a lot of Columbia stuff lately. I’m the type where I get hot easily so I’ve been buying their pants and dress shirts as they use a more breathable fabric. I just got used to sizing up a bit. I’m not at a point where I need to wear a belt thankfully.

General rule on knowing if you’re doing it right, you should feel it in your muscles and not in your joints. There’s plenty of online resources to see how to do exercises properly and even upload videos to get some feedback if you’re comfortable with it. You can also book a couple of sessions with a personal trainer if you are able to.

I’d recommend starting with the basic bodyweight exercises. Push-ups, pull-ups, dips, squats, planks. Those kinds of things. If you’re having trouble doing it unassisted it then do it partially until you can do it fully. Gyms also have machines that can help you do it with weights to make it easier as you build up muscle.

Lifting weights is also a good idea, but just make sure you don’t just do curls and triceps extensions. You need to make sure you do exercises for all your body as all your muscles work together, and if some are more developed than others, it could lead to things like cramps, soreness, and bad posture. This is partly why I recommended the bodyweight exercises in my paragraph above. They’re good at targeting a lot of muscles in each workout.

I’m 30 lmao.

Pants. I have thicker thighs, especially when compared to my waist size. I find a lot of pants are pretty tight on me because of this. I’ve started going for the more athletic brands as a result.

Back when I used to use reddit there was /r/bodyweightfitness that was really good and I believe it’s in line with what you want. It’ll help you get stronger, leaner, and it can even done at home. I haven’t been on the site in years but I remember they had a very good wiki and even an app that helped define a workout routine for you. I would recommend you give it a look. I’d recommend supplementing it with cardio exercises (jogging, biking, etc), to increase your heart health and help you loose any fat that you might want to lose.

I go the gym 3-5 days a week depending on how busy I am. I mainly start off doing a bit of cardio on the treadmill or bike and then lifting weights. If I have the time and energy, I end it with a bit of the stair machine as well.

Please do share your experience/suggestions/opinions on the it and related topics like sports, calisthenics, general physical health etc.

Different exercises/workouts are geared towards different things. What’s your goal from exercising? To lose weight? Bulk up? Just get more toned and have better muscle definition? Have better stamina? How you should be exercising depends on what you want to get out of it.

Do you know any exercises that are rare? Or ones that seem special to your locality?

I don’t think that’s a thing really. You can look up any kind of workout regimen online from anywhere around the world nowadays. It just depends on what you want to get out of it.

How do you meet your protein or calorie goals? How do you track it? Especially food that is local to your place.

Focus your meals on high protein foods. Meats, chicken, lentils, chickpeas, etc. If you’re doing intense workouts more than 3 days a week then supplement it with protein powder. Unless you’re looking to become some kind of professional athlete/bodybuilder/whatever, counting your calorie and protein intake is a waste of time (in my humble opinion). Just pay attention to your body, things like fatigue joint pain, etc. Be mindful of them.

Creating war to terrorize a population so that you can install your own leaders. Disgusting.
