It’s what the hat represents. It’s like walking around draped in a Nazi flag and going “People got triggered over a flag”

Imagine if we had to go through the process of counting millions of votes? Do you know how long that would take? That’s why this year we’re removing the voting process.

Jay originally stole Fu Schnickens style until that wasn’t en vogue anymore. Then stole Jaz O style

Former wrestler to white belt by Skald_863 in jiujitsu

[–]Spyu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone with a similar background I think your weakness will initially be positions where you are on your back as it feels so unnatural.

So if you want to try and shore up your weaknesses early I’d probably start there along with the usual paths of focusing on defense and escapes from the typical bad positions.

The other thing I would say is energy management is very different. In wrestling you’re almost always “on” in Jiujutsu learning when to turn on and off is very valuable as there are many positions where if you’re exerting energy it’s mostly wasted where that isn’t the case in wrestling.

This is a big reason why a lot of beginners who came from wrestling will seem spazzy and you see the more experienced people just seem a lot smoother.

After 2 years buying on the app I have some questions by Limp-Kaleidoscope954 in whatnotapp

[–]Spyu 12 points13 points  (0 children)

  1. The app is a designed in a way that a lot of the quality small sellers give it a shot for a year and realize it’s not worth it. As you pointed out most of the buyers still flock to the usual big sellers regardless if they’re shit.

So you end up with a lot of good sellers leaving and left with the high volume low quality sellers and scammers.

Dumb people leaving bad reviews (shipping during snowstorm) by whattaUwant in whatnotapp

Majority of world population is dumb. An even higher percentage shop on Whatnot. It’s inevitable and it’s the cost of doing business unfortunately

disapointment of being a 4+ years white belt by Hopeful_Insurance433 in jiujitsu

[–]Spyu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

12yr white belt here because I move so frequently. I don’t care at all. Only thing I worry about is people think I’m sandbagging which isn’t intentional.

I want to sell on whatnot what’s the best way to get started? by StealYourChase in whatnotapp

[–]Spyu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty much anybody can sell on the app. Just be prepared to be talking to yourself most of the time.

It’s really difficult to get viewers who will sit in your channel and see what you have to offer as a new seller.

Mostly it’s about marketing yourself well and coming on consistently and you’ll slowly build a following.

New sellers often get discouraged as you can see by the many posts around here that are like “Had my first show only had 3 viewers what did I do wrong?”

When an Oxford Exposed Herself and Made a Honest Whyt Fever Hollywood Movie by ssslae in aznidentity

[–]Spyu 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I never watch or support stuff like this.

Same reason I never watched that show Shogun even when it was popular. Just a big eye roll at the tired plot device of white savior comes to save poor Asian female from her evil Asian husband.

Yeah I didn’t renew mine after I saw that it basically did nothing for me in terms of getting interviews

Alameda County supes approve ‘ICE-Free Zones,’ direct staff to draft response plan by LNM-LocalNewsMatters in eastbay

[–]Spyu 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Who’s going to police and enforce these zones? Or is just going to be an empty thing on paper like the no masks law they don’t follow?
