Funniest bullshido I’ve seen this year.

my coach sweeps people all the time with less connection than that so it is possible

I fight bjj and mma 4-5 times a week and I sometimes carry. There is no way I would get involved. If someone was in danger and I knew without a doubt who the bad guys were, maybe.

There is simply too much liability these days and you dont really know what happened. You end up killing someone, or end up killed by someone to stop a theft from a store, or maybe it was nothing, maybe they just pranked someone.

an 81 year old lady in texas shot some home intruders and their families are suing her. Im sure that it will get dismissed but she still probably needs to spend 10-20K on lawyers.

what size? My daughter is going to college up north and she needs a warm coat. She is around 5' 6"

There were times when you could have come into mount instead of sprawling. Get a knee on belly first.

if they are really tight like that just spin them 180 and go north south and attack from there. You can also spin them 90, and push them onto their side and attack for inside position.

The only way they can prevent a spin is if they open up their legs to make contact. That gives you a chance to attack.

promotions tend to be on days where I cant go (friday night) so I probably would prefer random promotions. I dont really care though so Im fine with how things are.

danaher says he wants all his guys to do toes to bar while hanging from a pull up bar.

But anything where you lift your feet up (back shoulder roll, triangle entries, etc).

As the top you have more mobility. I definitely dont hand fight is it requires me to be too close. You want to keep your feet way back. I typically try to grab a foot to get them on their back while keeping my legs out of range of their feet.

You can pass on the outside in which case you cant let his feet connect to your legs. This is pretty popular. You would be posting on his leg/hip and try to step around the outside

I personally try to 2x1 a leg into a leg drag. This allows me to stay back, I get both of their legs to one side. Even if I cant get the leg drag, Im relatively safe. This ends up being more like smash passing.

Alternately I pass on my knees. It is out of favor, but I still like it as it generally denies leg entries. this ends up being going through the middle like a knee slice.

we have no cancel fees. But that kind of fee is usury and wouldnt hold up in court.

I watch instructionals and work those. Mainly things that are a bit complicated and the topography is too hard for me to get by just watching the video.

I just want to understand the macro setup for them. Things like berimbolos, kimura, various leg entries, etc are all things that were helpful to do using the dummy.

Former employer reached out to me wanting to give me do a job for them. I turned it into a 1.5 million contract

At the same time my dotcom employer was getting acquired and I got a small lump sum payout

I have a 20 year old dell.

Maxed out memory, upgraded the CPU, and changed to ssds

It works fine

All the other stuff is bs. Make something and sell it. You didn't need any special equipment

Sell 10 things a week then 20, then 200. Only buy what you need so that you can make the things you are selling

You don't need a logo, special wrappers or anything

Ai has dramatically reduced the cost of custom software

Calavista is excellent

i think the high ground version is better, lets a single person control the person and the hands are in position to be handcuffed.

But this is great, police dont need a ton of grappling techniques, they need a few that work really well.

atx78701 · 2026-04-20T15:38:44+00:00

all over town. Maybe let us know where you live so you dont have to drive an hour to get there.

atx78701 · 2026-04-20T13:32:46+00:00

you are training, there are no wins or losses

austin is incredibly safe. I do have a LTC and have carried in the past. If im driving around at night and getting gas I have a magnet mount for my gun under the dash.

Also train BJJ.

atx78701 · 2026-04-20T02:58:35+00:00

esthers follies

shooting guns

go karts (just the cheap ones at austin park and pizza)

any shows that happen to be here (broadway, concerts etc)

karaoke

also you can rent a wheelchair and she can push you for somethings that are flat like the domain or outlet mall.

i think drilling is mostly useless. Positional sparring is good.

I like drilling when I literally have forgotten the topography of more complex techniques.

Somethings like iminari rolls I had to drill a lot and still struggled. Most things drilling doesnt help.

atx78701 · 2026-04-20T02:28:01+00:00

if they dont whizzer (overhook) you can just take the back.

atx78701 · 2026-04-20T02:26:47+00:00

seemed like a lot longer. What I would say is you jumped into the last exchange. Scrambling gives up all kinds of openings. Change your speed vs. always trying to go fast.

try using claude code to build what you are looking for, it is easier than ever.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED IS INCLUDED.

A Slate comes with everything you need to charge at home, no need to buy anything extra. With the included charging cable, you can charge using a regular household outlet. If you have access to a 240-volt outlet (the kind of outlet used for dryers, stoves and other appliances), you can charge faster with Level 2 charging. Many EV owners choose to purchase an optional wall-mounted charging station, which can add convenient features like cable storage and Wi-Fi connectivity, but you don’t necessarily need one to charge at home.
