I was having a stressful day today, my brain has felt all over the place and generally out of sorts, and I was fretting about whether or not to go the gym. I always ride my bike, but it's so cold out and I don't have winter cycling gloves so... I decided to take the train there for the first time.

One thing I was lightly down about was the fact that I haven't had a menorah since I started living alone. But a young boy came up to me on the train and asked me if I was Jewish and if I had a menorah. I answered yes and no respectively, then he gave me one!

a small tin sheet menorah with two candles and the Shamash candle lit, it is sitting on top of some foil in front a monitor on a dining table with other electronics in the background

I'll be putting it in a better spot tomorrow.

I wandered into the gym very tired and not planning on accomplishing much, though my spirits were greatly lifted by the gift.

To my surprise, I bench pressed my first yellow plates. Proof under the cut.



I started playing Midnight Suns and came across this nice outdoor gym that has a barely adjustable squat rack with safeties that can't be moved, and the bench doesn't have them at all! And while one has shown up in a cut-scene, there are plenty of plates but no bars to load them on.

Likewise in X-COM 2, in the training facility, there's a bench press set up no one is using that has a bar loaded with nearly 250 kilograms on it. If you are done put it away! It visually communicates what it needs to but it makes me giggle all the same.

Please tell me of strange workout equipment you've encountered in video games I want to make a collection.
