Your Olympic Lodge

Well. A couple of biological males punching hell out of female boxers, triathletes expected to swim the sewage-ravaged Seine, and the Village being abandoned in droves as some smart alecs thought elite performers ought swelter starved of protein and settle for meagre vegan diets instead. Maybe every Olympiad gets engulfed

Silver Medallist Effect

The 2024 Olympics in full swing. I was reminded of research showing that bronze medallists, on the whole, appear significantly happier than the silver medallists who beat them out. The silver medallist typically compares themselves to only one other athlete, the winner. Whereas the bronze medallist compares with all. Happy
