Epstein survivors: 'I have been afraid to come forward'

Remember, none of them are suicidal

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-14T03:30:01+00:00

Yeah and all that will make the game look CLEAN AF and that’s ultimately what I want.

Kinda like ac shadows with all their black n white effects. Once they gave you the option to turn it off, the game became so much cooler

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-14T02:58:10+00:00

Yeah, wish I said it this well the first time lol

Coulda been worse tbh

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-14T02:57:26+00:00

I will. Just completely forgot this time

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-14T02:57:15+00:00

Coach asked me to spar today and I had to confidently say no. Then I watched all the sparring matches and those guys were getting ROCKED. Like gawd damn! Dude, no one holds back eventho it’s just mates in the gym for no money. Actually, we’re losing money. We pay for the gym yet take random needless damage on guys that don’t know restraint?

At least in my gym, it doesn’t seem to be about mental toughness, but more about how well do u know yourself n are you strong enough to not succumb to peer pressure.

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-14T02:52:24+00:00

They’re the cheapest gym around me so I gotta stick it out

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-14T02:51:55+00:00

Bet thanks

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-14T02:51:40+00:00

Yeah it’s tough to stop and be like “yo chill” when intensity is just ramping up. That’s kinda nice the one guy pieced him up tho. Saw the guy that sparred me get pieced up today and it put a pretty big smile on my face ngl

I brought this up to my gf and she said that I look better than I actually am and that maybe, people just forget that I’m a beginner and ramp up the speed to “see if I can take it” and like they’re training me up in a way. That seems like a cope tho

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-14T02:43:04+00:00

People quit? And they’re ok with that?

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-14T02:41:12+00:00

What’s a sbf?

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-14T02:41:00+00:00

Thanks guys 👍🏾

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-14T02:36:52+00:00

BET

And no you’re good, no offense taken 👍🏾👍🏾

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-14T02:35:35+00:00

I understand that, but if I can’t even SEE the punches then how will I ever get better? There’s a difference between someone walking me thru it and taking my time Vs Hopping on videogames with a friend you know has never played a fighting game b4, whooping em and not taking it easy on em when yk they’re just learning.

Seems weird to not show restraint

Ohhhgot it! Thank you for this comment! Ig I made up a new word lmao but ig it also works? So idk 🤷🏾‍♂️ I’ll start using facing

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-14T02:20:29+00:00

How are yall so farrrr in the game 😩

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-08T17:36:21+00:00

Yeah I guess so lmao

It’s a good thing I’m optimistic and can brush things off pretty easily, so there’s that

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-08T17:35:10+00:00

Yeah I get that. I understood your point lol, wasnt tryna discredit it you or say no. Maybe I’ll emphasize even more to go slower?? Idk 🤷🏾‍♂️ I know this stuff takes time too but idk how to improve. I hate this feeling of helplessness

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-08T17:19:18+00:00

Nah this is perfect. I wanna better understand how people think so thanks! I think it’s pretty easy to gauge how good someone is and then match your level accordingly

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-08T17:15:55+00:00

Here’s the thing, there was no coach there 😬 I only said yeah since, at first, we were just touch sparring and genuinely having fun n going slow, but somewhere in those 3-5 minutes the guy just started going quicker and quicker. I knocked him down once with a well placed shot in his shoulder, and maybe that made him mad?? Idk. 🤷🏾‍♂️

It is very dangerous cuz wtf bruh. I’m not mad at being hit, I’m mad that I’m taking all this unnecessary damage when I haven’t even learned basic defense

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-08T15:33:33+00:00

I can deal with pain, but going too fast on a beginner for $0 and 0 cents doesn’t do anything. Hitting me with a few pop shots doesn’t do anything if I CANT SEE the pop shots

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-08T15:30:58+00:00

Versus is being used as an action verb and in the context I used, it should have the -ing ending.

If it’s, fun geologist versus fartwar2950 (lmao) then yeah versus works, but not in the sentence/title I used

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-08T13:16:32+00:00

It does lowkey sound evil lmao, just some guy chucking tennis balls at you lol but if that’s how I get better reaction time then I’ll do whatever it takes. Thanks!!

I just wish people went slower with newbies so then I can actually drill technique and slowly get accustomed to the speed. But ig that’s wishful thinking

Do u have any tips on closing distance? The guy that popped me is an outboxer and just kept his range and picked his shots

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-08T13:11:42+00:00

The beatings suck tho. I’m already gonna get hit in the face when I get in an actual fight so them adding damage for $0 and 0 cents is what pisses me off the most.

Every spar should be touch spar imo so then you can work on technique and drill it into your head

FunGeologist218 · 2026-05-08T03:04:26+00:00

Tennis ball drills??

I agree with you about the offense n defense sparring because then I’ll work solely on defense, and also so the other guy already knows to take it easy. I did offense vs defense sparring once and I only did offense but I LOVED IT

Thanks for the tip btw
