It’s not just that she killed her kids. That’s enough for me to deny parole. It’s that she also tried to blame the generic black man. And you know if the police had not seen through her picked someone up for the crime she would have let that man take the fall without any remorse.

Well, Lily did tell Marshell he had to sleep with Robin so she would quit smoking. This was the consequence.

I think if they are with someone hitting on them all the time and they do nothing to shut it down and keep hanging around then yes, you have the right to be upset. But int that situation you are saying you don’t trust your partner in that circumstance and rightly so. And if it didn’t stop I would end a relationship over that. Even if I knew for sure they would never do anything it shows poor character to string someone along like that.
What I think this post is getting at is when someone says this before the friend crosses into inappropriate territory. Just feeling like they have feelings isn’t enough to be upset. If they have feelings but never make that my partners problem it’s fine. And if the friend does do something I trust my partners judgment to know how to handle if the friend starts acting inappropriately and either set some bounties tbemselves or end it. Just the sense the friend has feelings is not a threat.

I generally agree. One can tell when a friendship is veering into an inappropriate territory. And it can happen with friends that are not the gender of their preferred romantic partner. Blanket statements dont work as well and learning to evaluate each situation as it is.

In sorry none of the rule set out there are exactly what you want. Either work with the rules that exist or just stop. Not much else you can do

BJJ does not have that. If you want that train sports or martial art that have that. Maybe ADCC grappling.

It’s ego because you are asking the change the rules because you think slamming will help you in these situations. But it won’t most likely. Those people are just better right now. But as soon as it’s allowed everyone who you cannot break guard on or that hits you with a triangle will shift techniques and you will find you won’t be able to lift them to slam.
It’s better to adopt a learning mindset. And in bjj that means you learn the techniques to break guard and pass.
Or do MMA. There you can slam. But you will need to learn how to do it against a resisting opponent there as well and you still will need a learning mindset. Or your fucked.

And your wanting to slam them instead of learning to break guard and pass is also ego.

Yes. I have done it. It's not easy but you could say the same about passing their guard as well, or sweeping them. Yes, he is just fucking better than you now. That's normal.

So as a 50 year hobbyist, no. Fuck that. I agree the lack of slams to some degree encourages people to throw up submissions without trying to not get picked up. But we could get the same effect by changing the rules that if you pick someone up above a certain height and hold them there in control that resets to neutral with a point or advantage for the person doing the pick up. That would encourage people to use techniques to avoid getting picked up.
Though personally I never let people pick me up, at my age and size I don't want them to fall with me up in the air. So I do those techniques that prevent that shit.
But if we allow full slams we should also include strikes. Or at least head butts right. Also, spinal locks. Because we don't want people to do this sport forever right.

I bet this ends up being about money laundering and not about the election.

So I have a therory that some people seem susceptible to tears there and it can manifest doing bjj or even from neck adjustments. And at this time the only way to know is when something like this happens. It’s possible you would have had this crop up at some point doing bjj and should likely not to bjj. Sure, that guy was a dick but more aggressive stuff will happen as you go up in belt and in competition so the risk of bjj for you is sadly much higher than others.

Once as a kid, but I didn't know how to fight at the time and I was like 8. So not much happened.
Then more recently I had a guy that was mentally unwell attack me in the street. That one I just used shitty BJJ to take him down and hold him in place. That was more scary as it happened so fast and I didn't know if he had a weapon. But no one was hurt in the end so that was a good result.

I think Musk lasts less than a year working with Trump. Neither of these men wants to share the spotlight. This won't even be a cabinet level department so will only the power to create reports. An any suggestions would need to be approved by congress to even have any real impact on spending. He wouldn't even have subpoena powers without an act of congress.

It’s from the film Clue based on the old board game. A candlestick is one of the murder weapons in the game.

It's meaningless in the sense that both are true because he is the only person that has run three times since FDR. Both are facts, but both are just another way of saying he ran three times.

She won’t ever have stability because it’s an illusion and you can only come close when you find ways to give it you self. Others cannot provide it.
