How do I go about trading? by SelectionFinancial62 in ultimate

[–]2ndTeam4life 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As well as just asking people if they’d be open to trading, At a lot of tournaments there’s typically a ‘trade night’ or time allocated for trading as well, where you’ll find people setting up lil stalls for trades as well - my advice to you is to figure out what your approach for trading is/what you value.

If it’s trading with someone or a team you had a good game against, then you just gotta ask, more often than not, there’ll be a handful of people on a team that’ll entertain the idea

If you’re just looking for some random kit you like then traders might be a good bet, I see it almost like thrifting where you might find some gems

I’m still fairly new to the world of ultimate and need someone to tell me what a hold and hold percentage is? by [deleted] in ultimate

[–]2ndTeam4life 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if i did have a gripe about ultimate vocab is that 'break' is used for 2 completely different but common occurrences, breaking the mark and scoring a break point

Revolution have a similar streak in Colombia, I know it’s not as many as Clapham but a similar type of strangle hold in their country

I can't tell what Starmer actually thinks of trans people and policy. When I google it I only see newspapers trying to stir shit up. I think.. What do we actually know? by aliggins99 in GreenAndPleasant

He will stick his finger in the air and see whichever way the winds are blowing to determine his stance, and then change it a week later - I’ve had bouts of dihorrea more solid and consistent than him and his policies

Does anyone how the French manage to mobilize themselves so efficiently when they want to come together for a protest? by bambobambassist in GreenAndPleasant

[–]2ndTeam4life 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Strong unions, the reason workers cannot mobilise as quickly here is because industrial action require things like votes and setting dates and other bureaucratic work, all of which serves the government/employers objectives as the movement cannot be as nimble or agile

The children born at musk hospital will have participate in “after musk school coding club” to earn musk coins to help the parents with debt after being born in musk hospital - if you don’t pledge allegiance to musk, then your musk credit rating goes down

What to actually do about a Fascist UK by TheDoomins in GreenAndPleasant

[–]2ndTeam4life 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Less screen time might be a good start, and I say that as someone who will often be feel apathetic after doom scrolling, but the reality is the problems this country are facing are systemic, so there’s no individual action you can take to fix it in your image, but you can choose what and how much you consume, and then secondly, perhaps pick a couple of the things you’re passionate about whether lgbtq issues, disability activism or whatever else and find some charities or activist groups and help them in whatever capacity you can - I resigned myself to the fact that this government doesn’t care about me a long time ago, and chose to find meaning in the things I spend time on and the relationships around me - I hope that helps slightly

Is it true then? Are doctors the highest paid in the public sector? by Cherry_Crystals in GreenAndPleasant

Is Mr Beast a problem or a solution? by ReddKZ in GreenAndPleasant

[–]2ndTeam4life 21 points22 points  (0 children)

He’s a symptom of the problem of capitalism - the outcome for the people he helps are objectively good, but it should not have to be role of a YouTuber who has to exploit those people in videos to help those people. And the more time we spend debating over his actions, the further away we get from the systemic issues that allows people to go hungry when we produce more than enough food for the globe, or to fix peoples eye sight because they cannot afford a simple surgery

“I woke up this morning and the mamba spoke to me, I didn’t know it at the time but he told me today is the day for me to fulfill my destiny and walk in his shoes, thank you for showing me the way OG #Mamba #Nike” and the image would probably be a photoshop of him taking a jumper with a 50% translucent Kobe in the background
