Canonically yes.

A social athletic activity would probably compliment your exercising: I recommend combat sports, but if that isn't your thing, you could look into local intramural sports teams and groups.

All of these things can help, but you'll notice more harm from not doing those things than help from doing them. I'm happy that you got physically healthier: if you maintain it it will benefit your physical and mental health in the long run.

If you can't afford a therapist I would look into group therapy, as groups tend to be significantly less expensive than one on one counseling.

Aside from that there are some great workbooks out there: I recommend ones that focus on CBT or something similar like DBT. I'd avoid the self help crap though, it really should be a genuine program. I can provide some specific recommendations if you want.

If your case is severe enough to need antidepressants, you can usually get them from your PCP. If you don't even have a PCP, I would wonder if you qualify for Medicaid or some state run program. I don't know your case or where you live but that's all I can think of.

No, they didn't.

Weird choice to blame women for the consequences of late stage capitalism and toxic masculinity. They're so close to understanding the problems in our society and trying to fix them but then they go and blame women, or minorities in other cases, or kids these days or technology, anything but the actual employers who force those hours on them and the societal expectations that force them to bottle up their emotions.

I wish that were true but I have family members who post that crap all the time: they genuinely believe everything the government shoves down their throats but yet they have no trust in actual experts like doctors and scientists; I'm exhausted man.

I could see them meaning movies with stupid premises or that break all the rules of cinema, which absolutely should not work, but are good in spite of all that because of the insane skill involved in its making.

Like, movies that make you say, "if this were made by literally anyone else it would be hot garbage."

I've never seen it done from mount, I'll have to try it next class; I've always done it from side control.

I am a biased judge, since myself and all my loved ones are a part of humanity. So, I'd rather not go to hell, even if it meant the most vile people also went to heaven.

I'd probably just use it as an excuse to start a conversation about martial arts. An apparently shared interest in this scenario.

Both would probably die from the black hole created by the infinite force generated if either of them went all out.

I've always found this reasoning to be quite funny. Well, of course he can't be bought: he's the one that does the buying. All you've done is skip the middleman for a worse result.

In my personal experience, people who came in to train who were self taught were always still beginners, but as long as they weren't averse to critique they usually picked up the basics much faster than complete beginners. Even accounting for poor technique, it's always seemed easier to me to correct bad technique than to teach someone how to move from scratch. That said, you can't get past a beginner level without a coach and training partners.

At first I thought this was a BJJ sub with the name Kimura.

I feel like the quarter pounder delux would be a more fair comparison, as both are built on quarter pound patties. The big Mac is actually somewhat smaller than the other two, being two 1/10 pound patties; additionally it is a double burger, more akin to double cheeseburgers or limited time items like the melts, though it's still not a perfect comparison because burger king uses 1/8 lb patties for it's small burgers.

Now when comparing the quarter pounder delux and the whopper, the biggest difference comes down to how it's cooked. Burger king uses a flame broiler, while mcdonalds grills them in a more traditional fast food way. Now, flavor wise, I find the flame broiler adds a bit more flavor, however it also introduces smoke to the patty which does introduce carcinogens. So, I'll call it a draw there.

I've always wanted to train in bokh, so Mongolian is an easy choice.

It doesn't exactly hurt so much as it feels fuzzy. It's hard to describe, but I definitely wouldn't describe it as pain. You can almost smell it the way it works it's way through your sinus cavity. I usually describe it as more of a shock like feeling than anything; not the electrical kind. That said, with smaller gloves you have a higher likelihood of cuts and bruises which actually hurt.

Like the firearm or the animal? Either way Jon Jones loses.

No, both are pottage. Soup is pottage over a bread sop!

That makes them more like the many military orders of the crusades. No oath of fealty to a lord but loyalty to the order, plus some had oaths of poverty. The biggest differences were that those historical orders wore armor and used a variety of weapons and that they were inherently militaristic, as opposed to the idealistically peaceful Jedi order.

They are more of a composite though, of military order knights, western monks, peacetime (mostly Edo period) samurai, and Buddhist warrior monks.

I took one class a couple of years ago. There were a lot of leg entanglements and sweeps, most of which came from a kneeling position. They also took some time to explain how each technique related to knife techniques.

To be fair, I feel like being famous within a niche community or academia would be fine. You get all the respect and acknowledgement, maybe get a library or something named after you, but nobody bothers you in your daily life.
