@mangeurdenuage What is that?
-
@mangeurdenuage Basically kickboxing. It was fun, and easily wears my body out!
-
@epsiloco Ooh... that would be pretty cool. Something like that twice a week would be great to try out. Why wasn't it practical though?
-
@rye Thanks! Me too.
-
@rye Haha... exactly. There is a part of me that does want to get strong. Especially mentally. But actually also physically if I can motivate myself.
-
I think I need to evaluate how good at socialising I really am, because I tend to assume I'm anti-social and not good at it. But I was able to handle half an hour classes with strangers. I would like to improve on this in the future. But today was the last class for a long while. At least for the summer.
-
@epsiloco Absolutely. Have you done anything with this?
-
Knowing you can defend yourself brings a certain level of confidence with it. You aren't nearly as powerless as you would be without that knowledge and practice. Plus it sounds fun.
-
Life is filled with potential threats. It would be good to be able to learn self-defence so that if I need it I can use it. I wish there was a class really close by.
-
One of these days, I'll get good at kicking!
-
I've been afraid before to try holding the pad down so that people can kick it. Today, I ended up trying this with another woman and it wasn't as bad as I first assumed it would be.
-
Punished body... and the week is just beginning.
-
@mangeurdenuage I'm sweating.
-
@mangeurdenuage ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
-
@mangeurdenuage Or just keep watching this anime. It's an educational program, right?
-
@mangeurdenuage C-could it be both?
-
There are so many people that I wish I could support and help on here. But it is hard to know what will be the best support for them.
-
@guizzy @lain @matrix Hmm... that is certainly food for thought. You do make a good point. It was probably already happening a lot there.
-
@guizzy @lain @matrix Hmm. I do think that legalising something normalises it and makes it more accessible. But I'm not sure making it illegal is the answer.
The problem with a gun ban, for example, is that people who are law-abiding are less likely to own one. But criminals still will. The kinds of people who will shoot up schools are less likely impacted... they will find something else or find a way to do it. They have time to plan it out. People who are suicidal will find another method too, since suicide is still happening here. It might look good that there are less incidents with guns, but other methods go up. You are correct to tackle the root causes and go for preventative measures in childhood.

@lain @guizzy @matrix I actually have to agree with this. Guizzy has really gotten into weed more since it was legalised.
