I learned to do this while studying a second language. I had to rely on simple words and I've grown fond of them even in my mother tongue (USSR Russian).
Look at the shit they had to do to beat Bernie in 2020
I did all of those to some degree except catholic school. I'm straight. You know what I would say if I was in that guy's situation? "lmao"
You know how much freedom I feel when the LGBT+ are free? Folks, it's bigly 
! I have a bone to pick with everyone who goes "fellas, is it gay to drink pink lemonade?" I want a world where you love who you love and do what you do. Cause I want to be in that arcade with the crane games where the people are wearing the LGBT pins waaaaaaay more than I want to pay $8 for a hotdog at a baseball game.
It's like that time Ceaser was crying because Alexander the Great did so much when he was the same age. He refuses to acknowledge that Alexander inherited an army.
Yeah, if I had the reach and money of the democrats, I'd probably do a whole lot more just by virtue of not spending it on golf courses, mansions, and corrupt military expenditures. And you know what else? Labor would probably have a lot more money, good will, and reach if the US didn't go fucking ape shit, kill a bunch of people, and threaten to blow up the world as we knew it from the second WW2 ended until the dissolution of the USSR. All the while bombing the fuck out of miners, infiltrating any leftist groups that existed, and assassinating leaders of black movements. Domestic and international labor has to build its base out of rubble so fine you'd mistake it for sand. Democrats inherited the richest nation ever known and a worldwide military industrial complex and can't feed children lunch.
Oh my god in the right hands you'd make people seethe so easily! You'd walk out next to your battered wife, you'd scream in terror every time somebody held up a prop, you'd pretend to freak out after you touch some drugs, and you'd try to arrest the referee after you win when they tell you to stop pinning your opponent.
if he managed to get all the workers just trying to get by out first, I would vote for Joe for bombing m-
No I wouldn't, he'd do the same shit to lefties to be centrist
bit idea: absolutely bomb as a rapper and put on the worst events while increasing the support of police officers. Get a spot on EDC b/c everyone savvy knows what you're up to. Bring an oblivious police officer on stage to get ridiculed and mocked by the entire crowd.

The child in me that used to daydream about adventures in a fantasy world inspired my first novel. I have turned to that inner child for a lot of motivation when I ask myself what I think would be awesome and I hear crickets in return. You should find a way to get an EP out, if for no other reason, because it's been something that excites you.
3Blue1Brown opened me to the idea of math being beautiful and I have never stopped my full throated support of people watching his videos if they're interested in math. I really like the idea of meeting people where they are like Grant Sanderson was talking about. It's a core part of my philosophy in life, perhaps to my own peril. I think of chess in that same realm of physics in terms of people feeling refined because of their skill. The only difference is that sometimes children (as young as 8) will get matched up against Magnus Carlson (the undisputed best chess player) and simply not hesitate when they make moves. They haven't even considered what he has contributed to the sport, they know no fear, and then they take games off of him or draw. It's a little X factor that keeps the hoity-toity-ness at bay
Stalin continues on to concisely explain every single difficult question that has been posed to a leftist in the last two years.
Funny enough, I am more than happy to teach that type of person. If somebody came in asking me how to throw a better punch I'd tell them about how in Usman vs Masvidal, the cross that sent Masvidal into the stratosphere didn't get a wind up and how they don't need a wind up either then. I suppose all I can hope for is that they stumble upon a moment of witnessing the beauty of fighting. Maybe they'll end up at a bar and go "damn, there's not enough space here and they don't even like that we're fighting. I get better sparring rounds at the gym. In fact, I get a more thrilling adrenaline dump when I'm competing than when I insult someone's wife! I'm turning over a new leaf."
Even that, is asking for a whole lot I've found.
You're going to make me feel wiggly weird things with words like that, comrade. I might need to reflect on that a bit.
Maybe not though cause the answer is probably communism
Oh yeah. One time I saw an advertisement for a chess club at the library, challenged my friend to a game of chess, and focused so hard I started to feel dizzy. You gotta beat the homies!
I totally agree with you.
If you are unfamiliar with summoning salt whi got mentioned in the first paragraph, which is entirely fair because it's a niche of a niche, his YouTube videos are in alignment with what you're saying. They have titles like "the history of Super Mario 64 16 star speed runs." You're liable to have a breakout star in the videos based off of their unique personality or some amazing accomplishment that the have done. But it's also highlighting the people who discovered the glitches in the game, the people who made set ups to allow the glitch to be speed run viable, and their friends who were in the discord call when the WR happened.
The more I see in terms of what I focus on, the more that this dynamic shows up. You'll have somebody do something amazing with a bunch of tools made by others while they're talking about their lives with their friends.
I interact with sadness and trepidation when I'm with my friend who has taken a liking to the belief that they're special. A lot of our recent conversations have been on the topic of how great they're doing and how impressed people are with them. To keep up martial arts as a conduit for expression, I felt annoyed when they, after a few weeks of muay thai, kept critiquing my form, rejecting my feedback, and decided that their best bet in beating me was up close clinching.
Everything else aside, I have more than double the experience grappling compared to striking - I love clinch because it's the domain where I might steal a fight from a better striker. So when we go for the most basic clinching, something they have yet to get formal training in, I go for a simple trip, they fall over and grasp at my shirt on the way down to help ease the way down. After hitting the ground it takes a while for them to let go. The conversation takes a dramatic lull after they start to describe how tough it is to go against me, how I hurt their piercing, and how upset they were. I felt visceral disgust with them and I wanted to lash out at their weakness (of character). I was upset that of all their backhanded compliments of my strength, the years of cultivating technique across multiple disciples seemed to have slipped their mind. I expressed all this (poorly) by saying "[muay thai]'s not a sport for wimps."
I don't have a good answer to how to navigate or take advantage of narcissism. I default to speaking when spoken to. I let a recent intimate relationship slip through my fingers in such a dynamic. I think the attitude manifests as frustration with how the obstacles in their way don't seem fair or that others could stand to do more to help them. So maybe what they want is more buy-in into their vision for the world, but that's not something I am willing to give. I think, when they see a group of people practicing the art, they see an opportunity to impress. They're not seeing a chance to learn and grow. So something like a minimum number of classes is bureaucracy in the way because "the coach thinks that I'm cool." Nonetheless, the answer sure doesn't appear to be more discussion about how we feel and what we believe because even under the guidance of a couple's counselor that didn't pan out historically. I would have also said that karma would catch up with them when difficulties in life make them doubt themselves. Nope, not really. They are just as able to double down.
"When education is not liberating, the dream of the oppressed is to become the oppressor." - Paulo Freire.
The MODS of HEXBEAR are crushing my individuality??? (not clickbait) (gone WRONG) (GRWM)
I think there's a lot of cultural motivation to be some kind of great person - be it because of the great man theory of history or the economic glorification of the captains of industry. However, as communists, our theories of history and economics don't have any love lost for this analysis of the world. We recognize that without labor, not a single gear would turn. So, in my mind, success as a society doesn't rely on the prophetic vision of someone unbound by the constraints of societal pressures, but by iterative improvements and experiments put forward by groups of people who could stand to be liberated from under the economic heel of serving treats and proliferating the MIC. In this paradigm, the person who does push forward the big discovery/gadget is congratulated and venerated, but the cultural zeitgeist shouldn't be centered around that moment of discovery, but instead around highlighting the group and their efforts. Think of watching a Summoning Salt video instead of just the WR speedrun. If I can characterize my desire as wanting to be part of a culture that celebrates the collaborative more than wanting to be exalted as the person who accomplishes something, I can say that I don't "lack motivation" because I don't yearn to be celebrated.
I also struggle to see myself in chosen ones - I don't write the MCs of my novels as inherently special, but rather people who have to rise to the occasion. I hear that media that depicts hordes of zombies (post-apocalyptic has never resonated with me) springs from the same core philosophy. I would much rather hear about someone who is weird because they had to panic and push through a crowd of normal people than someone who is normal who had to run their truck through a horde of zombies. When I think of what I want for myself, the conversation is never to cultivate what makes me special to live up to my potential, it's always about doing something cool because the opportunity exists for those who would take it.
For example, with my black belt coming up in BJJ (in likely <year), I find a lot of joy in reflecting about how I took detours to learn about striking, wrestling, and judo while I've never had a genuine interest in my tournament results which have, as a result, been lackluster. For me, I grew up hearing people say that nobody's cut from a different cloth and how "you're a fucking sick (oops, can't show that word on a Christian forum) if you want to be." I went into BJJ because I wanted to believe that anyone could walk in off the street and, with the proper attitude, opportunity, will, and work become a black belt. I don't know that it ever crossed my mind that among the public, I was specially engineered to get that belt because of some characteristic about myself. On the contrary, my enormous gag reflex, gentle demeanor, and sensitive skin would imply that I am particularly imperfect for BJJ. Sometimes it's hard to go into a group of practicing MMA athletes as a weekly manga reader with no competitive ambition and believe "yep, I can hang with you shirtless people with tattoos and muscles!" even if I was invited by the coach. I think in my darkest moments I worried that inherent characteristics about myself made me too bad of a person to be able to accomplish the goal or that my accomplishments would be given out of pity. Even then, when it came to digging myself out of that hole, the act of showing up and being part of that community and touching grass mat helped bring me out of that funk when people showed me love instead of hating me for being me.
So, I guess sometimes I feel like I'm missing some fire or edge because I'm not striving to stand out. I do have accomplishments that stand out - I don't like to list them in public because it feels boastful. But if we just look at BJJ - while it's hard to get accurate data, a safe assumption is that <1% of people who walk in the door to do BJJ make it to brown belt. If the exclusivity were the goal, I feel like I should feel some other emotion about it. That maybe I should lean into it and make it into some complex about what a precise and superior fighter I am. I earnestly, when I'm being honest and sincere, don't toil in the hopes of being more than someone else. Deep down in there I'm hoping that an attractive person I'm attracted to goes "oh you really like that thing that I like too! Let's talk about it for hours" and magically I like talking to them for hours. Likewise, being really helpful and working on my own terms has 1,000,000x more resonance to me than being really rich (marble countertops, consuming luxury slop, having exclusive seating/priority, etc.). But with a resume of cool shit that I've done it's like shouldn't I want to pursue something until it's amazing? Shouldn't I be one track minded towards a goal? I seem to be floating listlessly and a goal might shake that up. Am I just coping?
Do you feel the same way? Without great man theory, imperial core chauvinism, and unenlightened non-liberating education do you still strive to be special and stand out? Do you want to be outstanding - the person who finally discovers and invents the thing? Do you have any guidance for me?
I'm undecided until I see them.

I might not have used the phrase waste of money, but I'm within the same ballpark if I'm asked to do something I don't want to do. I don't want to spend some $60 for a tiktok trend. I'm slow to do activities beyond what I'm already investing my limited energy into. I historically feel like I'm putting forth a lot of energy on top of what I already use to exist to be aware of my partner's presence, making sure we're doing enough together, making sure they're happy, etc. It has historically been and seems like the sort of thinking that your partner should want to do things like this that makes me feel like I'm obviously out of the loop on something. I couldn't imagine wanting a partner to be down for every idea I have and there would be some catharsis in not having the expectation that I drop what I'm doing and open up my wallet for theirs. "I don't want to spend money on this" is a common part of my life - it's something that I'm conversing with myself all the time. I could but I'd be content abstaining. It seems like if "if [he] wanted to he would" is the dynamic, then my partner would be another spinning plate (alongside work, health, social obligations) instead of my fellow plate spinner with their own burdens to satisfy.
The consensus that the boyfriend is being hurtful and obviously a bad partner feels like getting checkmated. How could I ever be a good match for any of those people? How could I ever want to? Because they spend their hard earned money on some cutesy thing for me in return? Like please don't. Where am I going to put it? What if I want to horse around and there's all sorts of fragile shit around? What if we have friends over and now there's shit they need to be careful around? What if there's shit we need but we already spent all our money on shit we don't need? Big expectations around gifts feel like a big burden. "comrade let's go for a walk." "comrade let's cook a meal." "comrade let's have friends over for board game night." "comrade teach me something new." "comrade let's have a deep conversation." "comrade my friends are having a party." are things off the top of my head that would feel much better to drop what I'm doing for and look forward to doing it. The kind of person who would do shit like that with me is the kind of person who I'd go on road trips with, travel, move in with, etc. But the idea that we'd get into fights over some sort of "you should want to do this" and "I don't want to" isn't a good answer would be disqualifying for me and it looks like that's a common attitude.
According to that study, the post has to have at least 50 words and some undisclosed key words in order to be scraped.
I am the bomb at wrestling when compared to other people at my academy, but I suck compared to people with fresh wrestling experience. In the past, I was like, "I hate pulling guard, it doesn't feel like fighting." So I committed to either getting the takedown or getting takedown. My go to move is a duck under to the right side where I chicken wing my right arm to get an opening which exposes their back which, per its namesake, I duck under to get to the back. From there their neck is vulnerable, but if I choke them and they tap, I let go. If I didn't, I would be strangulating them. That's not being a good training partner
It's recently come out that, on September 10th, Lauren Boebert was removed from the play Beetlejuice in Denver. This would be all fine and good, right? A politician is being an asshole. The sky is blue. Well, Hexbear, it is anything but fine. Anything but.
The plot thickens when it's revealed that, beyond the vaping and the being loud (which is it's own struggle session whether that's based), that part of her contribution to getting owned was that she was giving her partner an over the pants handjob. Now, this would have gone through the news cycle with a sensible chuckle for me, but, my fellow hexbearians, do I look like I'm having a sensible chuckle? NO! This is literally me right now. ! See, what had happened was that this news circulated to the website that I like to post on. The title of the post was "boebert was giving a no-foolin for-reals handjob during the beetlejuice musical" This post got some of the most vile, vitriolic comments I've ever seen in all my posting.
>no-foolin for-reals handjob >over the pants rubbin Y'all that's not even a handy to a seventh grader. @regul@hexbear.net
[unironically !this ](https://hexbear.net/comment/3959637) @WoofWoof91@hexbear.net
Let's get one thing straight here, hexbear. Over the pants is a handjob. This is my central thesis. Let's start with the most obvious positive case. If you have sex with a condom, do you call it over-the-condom sex? Of course not! Protected sex, maybe, but you wouldn't call it not sex. Would you call a blowjob with a condom not a blowjob? Of course not! If you did that'd be annoying and weird. Let's try not to be annoying and weird. skin-to-skin contact with the genitals isn't a requirement for something to be called a job. Repeat it once more for the people in the back getting a handjob rn: skin-to-skin contact with the genitals isn't a requirement for something to be called a job. If home runs are so unambiguous, why is third base so "ambiguous?" Because of a single fringe case. If it wasn't for the existence of this fringe case, then there's be no argument about how getting your genitals stimulated works.
Fairies, monsters, and others that go bump in the night, let me introduce you to the water jet/bubbling system of a hot tub. Wikipedia defines a hot tub as "a large tub full of water used for hydrotherapy, relaxation or pleasure." Let's explore that last word, pleasure. Whom !amogus hasn't used a hot tub as it was meant to be used. I think this is where the friction comes from, the jet stream in a hot tub. Dissenters will say (like sniveling cowards) "b-b-but WDYMP, the hot tub isn't sentient, it can't give you a job!" Let's get one thing straight, if you had your hands over the edge of a hot tub and your partner was pushing your crotch into a jet stream, that would be a type of job. The solution, my compromise for the haters and losers, is what I would like to call the jetjob. It would be a normal jetjob if they're pushing you via hands on the buttox into a water jet, and a reverse jetjob if they're using their feet. It would be a backwards jetjob if your back is facing the water jet. This also expands the capacity for a combo jobs because your crotch is facing your partner. This would be the exciting introduction of the triple job if they're using a hand, their mouth, and the water jet. I propose that, upon climax in such a fashion, one would exclaim "Tic tac toe, three in a row!"
With this, let's get one thing clear, over the pants is a type of handjob the same way that over the condom sex is a type of sex. If we can start using the term jetjob, then it will be easier to recognize when something is a job and when something is not. This would also be a step closer to communism. Thank you. I hope I haven't fractured our fragile community too deeply with this.
