In Which I Try to Explain to Instagram Why They’re So Goddamn Wrong About the Purportedly Magical Properties of “non-GMO” and Pesticide-Free Food

To this point I’ve been unsuccessful as fuck in figuring out the video format, and yet I persist. At some point I will figure it out or abandon it until some videographer volunteers to unfuck this mess. If any of you are into the video format, feel free to let me know in the comments. I’ve no plans to abandon writing- it’s just that most people seem to have abandoned reading, and videos get a lot more traffic than do written posts.

And just as an update, Mike O’Hearn has publicly wondered where in the fuck the 30 for 30 on American Gladiators is, because it was supposed to air last year (and feature me heavily as a historian). There’s the link though, so if you feel the compulsion to check it, you can do so at your leisure. I had some horror movies in the works (including playing the lead in a Splatterhouse short film), but that stuff was shelved over Covid and never resurrected. It looks like I should be able to nab a publisher this year, so I will keep you guys updated as we go. In the meantime, you’ll see much more activity on the site again.

I am a former all-time, all federation world record holder in raw powerlifting at 181lbs, a record I broke just to say fuck you to the internet’s “lifting” community and the powerlifting community at large. Over the last ten years I’ve written over 500 articles on strength training, nutrition, and supplementation, and continue to do so simply to fight the tide of weakness and sadness that currently pervades the scene I’ve called home for the better part of three decades. I’ve got personal trainin certs, BodyPump and BodyCombat certs, a BA in History and East Asian Studies from the University of Arizona, and MBAs from the Vienna University and University of South Carolina on my side, in addition to some sick lifts and a hell of a lot of rage. What the fuck have you got?

I really enjoyed the diatribe on this, after having read the ‘Empire Builder’ stuff years back. Your erudition and wild-eyed passion for this stuff is remarkably well-suited to video format.
