I am very into powerlifting and bodybuilding. So, I've been religiously following Mr Olympia (once a year event which is the largest bodybuilding show in the world). Last year, on Mr Olympia day, there was no thread about the Mr Olympia. Similar thing happened this year:

How does the bodybuilding sub not have tons of threads about the biggest bodybuilding competition? I don't know but I think it's because people gave up on posting due to abusive mods:

Last year, I made a post on that sub with comparison pics of the top 3 competitors. That post got deleted by the mods saying it was a duplicate of existing post (???). I tried messaging the mods that there was no duplicate and they first gave me attitude and then silenced me from messaging them.

Vitamin D has helped me as well as many of my immigrant friends tremendously when we moved from South Asia to Canada. Been taking 5000 IU for 15 years.

I'm on iPhone 13 and only reason I'd like to upgrade is my battery is poor now and because I have a small crack on the back glass, Apple requires me changing both the back glass and battery which is $500 CAD.

Could also put one of the thrusters from SpaceX rockets (or the roadster now) to automatically turn it right side up if it happens.

iOS developer here. The oldest iOS Apple lets us currently submit apps for is iOS 15. So yea, this version is pretty old for most apps.

The chase scene was the only part where I could see how the one-shot method caused them to run very very slow which kind of looked funny. The slowest chase scene ever.
