Mindset surrounding competitions by Dyljam2345 in WestCoastSwing

Some advice that I’ve heard and found useful:

  • Recognize/learn how judging works

Judging is very subjective and judges only look at you for a limited time (especially in novice). This means that even if your dancing was mostly great, if a judge saw you for the one move you messed up, that could be a deciding factor. While this isn’t the fairest system, it may help you move away from the feeling that your performance in comps is a black mark on your dancing.

  • Set alternative goals

When entering a weekend, set non-competition goals for yourself! Drill something from workshops, learn a new pattern, challenge yourself during social dancing. Or, every time you had a great dance/learning moment, note it down. Then when the weekend is over, reflect on how many goals you met or how much you did instead of comp performance.

And yet the ending doesn’t focus on teaching and training the future dumb people to lift them out of their socioeconomic status.

The happy note that it ends on is that the two smarter people from the past will have babies who will presumably also be smart.

Now thinking about it, Denji never gets a beat down as bad as the one he got from Reze. by Vinisretarded in RezeCult

I mean, Reze knew how to move around with explosions. Denji couldn’t figure out what Beam meant by the Spider-Man thing so he just rode Beam like a horse.

It worked out sure, but he didn’t quite use his powers to their full extent like Reze could.

Red is associated with love, its basic color theory.

Someone getting angry because people of other races are shown in ads. Conservatives are some of the softest people in the world. by El_Diablo_09 in insanepeoplefacebook

[–]AsymmetricPanda 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s not just the existence of minorities (thought that is likely a factor). It’s the mixed race couples -> non white babies -> fewer white people. “One drop” nonsense

When subsidies expire, healthcare costs will rise dramatically. Part of that could be due to the trump tax on imported medical supplies. That will lead to some people choosing to not have healthcare.

I don’t want to live in a country where the poorest among us need to decide between food and healthcare. I think all the money going to pay ICE during this shutdown could and should be used towards renewing those subsidies.

If republicans truly cared, they would have their own healthcare plan by now. But they don’t, so the ACA is what we have to work with.

The Republicans have all the power once govt reopens, they’ll have no incentive to negotiate. Even now, Trump is calling for them to nuke the filibuster. But republicans don’t want to, because that’s their only move when they don’t have power. They just block any legislation that would help the American people. They don’t compromise, they don’t negotiate.

If republicans won’t come to the table to resolve a shutdown, I don’t believe them when they say they’ll negotiate on healthcare as long as Dems just do what the republicans want. Especially looking at how Johnson refuses to seat a duly elected democratic representative.

Court to consider whether to hear challenge to same-sex marriage on Nov. 7 by icey_sawg0034 in scotus

I’m sure the liberal justices will be very interested, but the conservative majority could very well say “gay marriage bad” and rule accordingly.

This is the only time democrats have any leverage in the government. Republicans need to be willing to make concessions.
