@ThrillaRilla369 Going to the VA for a liver biopsy, laying on a table, watching two men argue with a huge needle in my side over who's fault it was they kept missing. Had to be laid up with pressure on it for a few hours so I didn't bleed internally after the procedure. 16 holes in me that day.
@yunamorichan@hakeem_the_lean Dallas has a large Asian population, Houston large SEA population. Something worth trying is a train ride from Dallas to Arizona, then Arizona to Houston, bus back to Dallas. You'll see a large part of the country in a short amount of time. Look for Amtrak tickets for bus/train.
Every dipping sauce at fast food joints in America is 90% soybean oil, and it's disgusting. I would tell them straight up not to eat that garbage, or anything fried in cheap oil either (like chicken sandwiches).
@whittverse@Combat_Casuals It's pretty impressive in and of itself, that's for sure. I know I can do 5lbs pretty easily myself almost instantly eating a large dinner after fasting all day before class. He must have had like three dinners and some beer. Wild.
Not gonna lie I kind of feel like in one universe she's his beard after many years being accused of being a homosexual pedophile. I didn't make any accusations, but I read about them often in the alternative media.
The Buggy Choke is one of the first chokes you learn to defend with the fundamental knowledge of not putting your head and arm in the same zone of attack, while Jiu-jitsu competitions are where you go to forget that the ground is hard, and gravity sucks.
Train accordingly.

@Neel_2014@Toribabieegirl Depends on where you grew up @neel_2014. I was born in the south and spent years in the north and west.
Soda, Pop, Coke, Cola, many different names based on geography.
1.
Self-defense should be trained in a manner that is applicable to real world scenarios where usually the aggressor is bigger, stronger, younger, faster, less honorable. That's why they chose to fight you in the first place, they thought they had an edge.
🧵
5. 50% of self-defense is breathing, emotional sobriety, and an ability to perform under pressure. For this reason, competitions, self-defense scenarios, and hard sparring from time to time are a good idea.
4. Everyone trains for different reasons, and many people think they are training for different reasons than their training reflects. If you're not following the wisdom of 1-3, you may fall into the latter category.
3. Every time you lose, you are technically dead. If you choose not to train with certain types of people then you are effectively training to lose to them.
@EddieBravo famously called jiu-jitsu a "virtual reality video game of death."
2. Randori only works when it's applied to threats that you will face, like bigger, stronger, faster, younger, more skilled opponents. If the moves don't work on them, or you can't apply without injury to yourself, is it a good move (yet?).
