this is non comic or OSP related, so sorry if i'm overstepping, but do you have any advice for someone that wants to move/exercise more but is utterly unmotivated?(not exercise for muscles, just movement for the sake of movement)

Honestly? Think of something physically demanding you want to be able to do. Stuff like hiking and/or climbing rough terrain, running free with the wind in your hair, swordfighting, stunt falls, sick metal gear combat rolls - anything that has ever made you sit up and think "I wish I could do that!" Once you reframe movement and exercise as a way to make your body capable of more fun things, it becomes a lot easier to stay motivated.

Second time climbing and I felt a little discouraged afterwards, but my husband always manages to make me look so good in the photos 🤗

Ronin is supposed to be exercising but all he wants to do is lie on a little pile of N's dirty shirts. I keep picking him up and resetting him in the middle of the room and he just goes right back to it and stays there. Smell of the preferred human.

It draws him. Like the pole draws the compass needle.

climbing/bouldering is a beautiful sport. full-body workout. the joy of getting launched onto a crash mat. Weight Off My Poor Spine. strong hands/grip strength. bodily awareness. the joy of swinging one-handed on a hold

Love* coming home from the gym and enjoying the pump in the window reflection, and my dad giving me the whole "make sure you don't get too big because men are visual creatures and don't like that bc it's not feminine"

sir.

1. Wuh?? I didn't think people actually said this shit in real life!!

2. If they're actively not going to be attracted to me at my happiest and healthiest, why would I want them?? Even if I wanted to date men, Why would I want to date those that won't like me if I'm bigger, stronger, etc? Surely the opinion that matters the most is MINE???

3. Bold of you to generalise all men like that

4. If I am feminine person. How is anything I look like or do not feminine. Riddle me that one.

4. Again. Why should I care? Genuinely.

I love cycling (going downhill at a ridiculous high speed feeling like I'm flying)

I hate cycling (going uphill at ridiculously slow speeds and wanting to throw up)

ok here are my eiffel questions

-do you think he ever played sports (and enjoyed it)

-had ever watched the show 'community' he kinda reminds me of a mix between abed and jeff and idk if you've seen it but it's interesting

-what kind of pet did he have a a a kid? he's giving me cat or lizard vibes idk

anyway love your blog tyy

aw, thank you! okay, in order:

oh, god, no. definitely not. eiffel is from a generation of nerd guys who made a point of defining themselves opposite to jocks, and he does not exercise on purpose. i doubt eiffel even watches sports that aren't like, motorsports. to get eiffel to enjoy exercise you've gotta trick him into it by giving it a counterculture image. i'm so sure he wanted to learn to do sick skateboard tricks as a teenager. he still wants to do sick skateboard tricks. but his coordination is terrible.

he has almost definitely seen community, but i have not, so i can't give any further opinion on that. but he's the right demographic.

i don't think he had a pet as a kid, but not for a lack of trying. eiffel is absolutely a dog person; he was a lonely kid, and i know he begged for a dog. and maybe his parents even promised him one, but it just never happened. i actually think eiffel is allergic to cats, just based on his general misfortune. guy with ailments. he just seems like the kind of guy cats would love to climb on while he sneezes horribly.

And for today's letter from Watson we have.

- Holmes and our dear Doc deciding that there's not time to pick the Lock and just KNOCK DOWN THE DOOR

(let's assume that Watson used the good shoulder, he's not that reckless)

DIFFERENTLY from a certain Mr Sherlock Holmes who's always keen on inventing parkour a century early and/or just showing us that he's, deep down, just a cat in human form

I can literally HEAR Watson sigh for a moment as Holmes just climbs on the roof.

my ex gf suggested we go bouldering as a date and then like three weeks later broke up with me. john irving and his climbing exercises: causing gay divorce since 1845.

The way we talk about exercise in this country is fucking insufferable. I occasionally contemplate joining a boxing or rock climbing gym because I enjoy both those activities. But then I see all the advertising and discussion about the place and no thank you. Like my fitness goal is climb/punch things. My long term fitness goal is to climb/punch things. I don't give a fuck about macros or gaining muscle or burning fat I just want to participate in activities I enjoy. But no it's gotta be about achieving "Peak Fitness" like fuck off.

I've been staying true to my 2025 resolution of dedicating myself to health and wellness - this month, I tried my hand at golf (with mixed results), had a sauna date with my bestie, took a class at a new yoga studio, and went indoor rock climbing with friends! 🧗🏻‍♀️
