Hehe I'm sure there's some of that too. For me that would just be one more thing for me to (mis) manage, which wasn't worth it since my body would figure out these new requirements every year at the beginning of water season anyway. Plus I would have a valid excuse to not do dishes by hand for like a week

    Those can make it worse, might depend on the glove though. Pulling fibers out of shredded skin hurts way more and you don't get as much feedback on the oar.

    This only really happens when you first start, once you're grip isn't strangling the oar cuz the boat isn't set and your calluses develop, you're fine

  • I think words can be powerful, and truth can still have meaning. Watering down news headlines with clickbate feels like a step away from that though. Fascists aren't afraid of a few metal projectiles and death, those are their tools. They are afraid of objective facts and people understanding those facts, rather than their propaganda. We shouldn't shy away from those tools, but our focus should be on keeping truth and reality relevant rather than gaining clicks.
