They should rename themselves to Kurger Bing and just pretend they're a spin off brand

Fun coincidence, I just got done watching the video on microphones.

There are a few issues with the guy's methodology but it's still representative of how most studios get their results, and if it can help combat some of the snake oil that goes around in the music production industry (and god there's so much of it), then that's a good a thing.

The end of history

Perhaps the only characteristic they share with leftists

That was a crazy moment, wasn't it. The worst interpretation possible is that the fascism inherent to liberal ideology is always lurking beneath the surface and ready to boil over. The best possible interpretation is that they're feckless idiots and the right wing will eat them alive.

If you live in a big city and can pick from a bunch of disciplines, I'd say either muay thai or K-1 kickboxing for striking and either wrestling (folkstyle or greco-roman), judo or BJJ for grappling

If the only gyms in your area are regular ol' boxing gyms that's still a very good way to train, same goes for kyokushin karate specifically (can't recommend the other types of karate for learning self-defense)

What is this, some sort of devil kernel?

yeah a well executed punch definitely doesn't need to have your whole body strength behind it in order to fuck someone up, and whatever lands is infinitely more damaging than what doesn't

I'd also recommend training combat sports. even if you never end up in a violent altercation the compound benefits are fucking amazing

My left hand is named "semantic jab" and my right hand is named "ad hominem"

Cool comic and mostly good advice but I'd make some adjustments and additions :

  • Don't ball up your fist, keep your hands relaxed and flex your knuckles right before impact
  • Exhale as you're throwing the punch, you'll get a bit more power and you won't get tired as fast if you have to throw some more
  • You shouldn't lean into it that much, leaves you open to unpleasant things like getting knee'd in the face
  • Best not to "follow through" like that either. Your punches should be snappy and practically bounce off of the nazi's face. This is also conducive to punching more nazis, or punching the same nazi more

I've been using this adapter for both BT and WiFi and it's honestly pretty good. Works out of the box and I've experienced zero hiccups in the past 6 months. So long as you don't mind the big ass antenna that is
