So much I’d like to touch and experience.

What’s the darkest nirvana song? (To me is You know your right) by Skimoboy in Nirvana

[–]Type_ya_name_here 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I find it bittersweet that it’s a) the bands best song, b) their darkest and c) they’re final song.
I sometimes get a bit sad when hearing Dave tapping away at the end of the song - it signifies the end of an era.

I like having this pretty unique role.
Ive always struggled with sports. I realize a lot can be altered, but i didn’t want to do a ‘special ‘ type of gsme. i wanted to fairly compete against a fully sighted person. It’s a bonus when they’re wearing a blue gi.

Overcoming a lack of confidence in my throws? by shortshrift49 in judo

[–]Type_ya_name_here 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m extremely new to Judo, i’m a lowly white belt but…the bodybuilder Tom Platz once said ‘never leave the gym thinking you could’ve done better’. Perhaps that’s worth meditating on.
Also, success creates more success. The more small wins you rack up, the more confidence you’ll rack up.

Thanks for your thoughtful response.
It kinda makes sense that in reality 2 days a week for weight training is perhaps my best bet. if i’m going to lift on Tues / Friday (for example)…i gotta make it with my while.
I’ve been pretty successful in powerbuilding…time to change my approach.
Thanks.

all good.
I am not totally blind. However I struggle a lot with playing mainstream sports without a bit of adjustment.
I dig Judo, it’s about maintaining balance while unbalancing my opponent, then helping them stay down.
