For sure. I love me some confirmation bias. Um-hm, warm and comfy, with none of that uncomfortable "cognitive dissonance."
As far as the gas stove thing, they (Biden and his administration) said you can do everything on an electric stove or induction range that you can on a gas stove...
Roast a red pepper and then we'll talk...
Wonder if he needs someone that knows how to deal with these types of data issues...

I'm in a large meeting and just laughed a bit too loud. But it was worth it, that is funny as hell.
I'm calling bullshit. You know how many lions it would take to eat that guy? They could gnaw on that carcass for 3-4 days.

I’m guessing we both saw the recent video…F her, that dude was not doing anything wrong.
”They” prance around the free weight area dressed pretty much like the meme above, and then all but cry ‘rape’ if they happen to see you catching a glance via a mirror or by simple distraction.
It’s S like this that caused me to quit LifeTime, buy a Peloton and set of weights, and call it a day.

I went to the same gym for years; it had three areas: cardio with a variety of machines, weight machines, and a free weight area that serious lifters tended to use. They had rooms, too, for classes, but beside the point.
Over the years the clientele changed from serious lifters and people, men and women, serious about exercise and working out, to the casual exerciser: lift a light weight 10 times, set it down, sit on bench, look at phone for 2 minutes, take selfie, repeat. The clothes the women were wearing became tighter, clingier, and shorter. I left the gym, bought some stuff, work out at home. I miss some of the things in the gym because I do not have the money to buy those things, but by and large I get a better exercise experience at home.

A good commercial gym alternative I like is Gold's. Membership fee is generally reasonable, the atmosphere encourages the heavy lifting you associate with traditional gyms, no 'lunk alarm' BS , etc. Some also have separate areas for women only to train, too, though the women coming to create viral 'problem' videos about men in gyms probably wouldn't find those sections quite as useful.
