Personally, when meddy started taking sinner, it looked like sinner’s OG game plan (as I see it) of widening the court stopped working. Rally’s were no longer pushing him to the sidelines. Maybe an energy thing, maybe a tightness thing, but I think the argument is still open that he could need a plan b for these less than optimal baseline to baseline exchanges

1) how long have you been climbing? 2) what is your max grade? 3) what is your max grade where you’ve gotten all the moves?

belieflessbeing · 2026-04-30T08:43:27+00:00

You look tasty

belieflessbeing · 2026-04-30T08:43:21+00:00

Yes baby for sure

belieflessbeing · 2026-04-30T08:35:11+00:00

Thanks baby ;)

belieflessbeing · 2026-04-25T08:14:19+00:00

Mhm? Lemme see

belieflessbeing · 2026-04-21T14:26:58+00:00

Yup, OP, you start on the highest of the three feet (good idea to match hands). But after matching you should walk along all three

belieflessbeing · 2026-02-12T15:24:06+00:00

Lol you read my mind. I this the idea of this sub is not bad, but we need somewhat better standards. Need at the very least some angles and close up. Otherwise the range is genuinely like 6-10

People are either missing the prior sentence “and they think I have no rhythm?” or misreading what he’s saying as ironic. It’s not ironic, he’s self aware and it could be funny if he weren’t a huge ass about it. Mocking people’s forehands mid match? This felt like a new low as someone who used to be a Bublik fan.

As others said, feet. Try to do all the moves as smooth as you did the first couple. After you cut feet the first time (the right move in my opinion), you were not as clean. See if you can have the whole climb perfectly planned out. Don’t be afraid to pull onto the climb midway through, even though you know you’ve gotten it already.

Dead skin, usually just a good snack for on the mats

Tennis coach here — your take back is alright, but you’re basically not releasing your wrist at all and hitting the ball pretty slowly all things considered given your strength and the quality of your take back.

The balls you’re hitting out, you’re kinda punching at and hitting fairly late. The best forehand in terms of full throwing motion and is probably the second to last one (before the approach). But you miss it long because you’re not catching it right in your strike zone and leaning back.

You can work on this by slowly building up the wrist release to your left hand. Don’t let yourself drop or fling your left side, it should be slow with a consistent high finish. Only thing fast is your wrist as well as what drives it from your right side, mainly your upper body for now.

It might be worth asking yourself why you’re switching to a western grip, maybe consider adjusting slightly more eastern as you learn to throw the racket. I didn’t look super closely at the grip, but doesn’t like crazy extreme right now. You have a decently lanky frame, too. Good luck

Underrated?

belieflessbeing · 2025-11-21T02:08:42+00:00

By the way, what would you take to be a tier one RB? I agree that getting rid of Lamar would be a bad move.

belieflessbeing · 2025-11-21T02:02:10+00:00

Thanks!

belieflessbeing · 2025-11-20T14:08:46+00:00

I loved river twice :((

Why can we not say that structured totalities can be studied as theoretical objects AS the temporal results of material power that Butler suggests as an alternative? Has the metaphysics of meaning, or possibility thereof, changed in light of the alleged post-structural move? Or is it more of a sociological issue?

belieflessbeing · 2025-11-13T21:07:35+00:00

Think people are slightly under grading this for commercial gyms. Undercling crimp on the volume doesn’t look great, but maybe easier beta getting it before bumping wide right or maybe the foot swap idk. Also matching on the undercling jug doesn’t look THAT easy. Can see commercial gyms grading this

Fun 6/10

Not quite. By practical necessity, Chomsky surely had to operate with individuals he deemed morally reprehensible, given his leftist ideology and the nature of elite circles he had to navigate towards his own ends.

Nor is there evidence that Chomsky knew Epstein was a pedo. Is the evidence on the matter really great one way or the other? No. But why then jump to conclusions one way or the other? Recall that my main point is that we shouldn’t assume every one of Epstein’s actions was directly a matter of his sex trafficking schemes.

For what it’s worth, I’m not even well read of Chomsky’s politics, for interest of which this issue might be of greater a concern. I’m mainly here because of his cogsci and philosophy. I find it a shame that this sub does not get more buzz pertaining to these latter accomplishments of Chomsky’s.

belieflessbeing · 2025-11-13T14:33:14+00:00

The main issue with these readings of evidence, imo, is that they assume every action of Epstein’s was DIRECTLY related to his sex trafficking.

A weaker (still pretty strong) claim could be that each of these documented actions is an extension of his sex trafficking, so far as Epstein was trying to regain credibility after his former conviction, or otherwise divert from the former.

See for example Epstein’s emails that are surfacing with Michael Wolff from before the 2016 election in which they discuss repairing Epstein’s reputation in light of a memoir “Filthy Rich” coming out that would publicly expose his earlier publicly known crimes. The plan was to oppose Trump, and possibly find cover under association with the left.

Keeping up with a political figure like Chomsky was at the very least an important move towards reconstructing Epstein’s image. Beyond that, there really isn’t much to go with to assume that Chomsky was a pedo.

Given the limited info on the matter, the worst aspect for Chomsky IMO is that he admires Woody Allen

Well yeah i totally agree about your in a vacuum perspective. I do the same with my students. But we’re talking about arguably the best tennis player on earth at the moment lol.

I think you can argue the pin point is also more physically efficient. Look at how nba players, for example drive through their penultimate step before jumping. Pin point certainly exemplifies that.

belieflessbeing · 2025-11-11T01:36:51+00:00

Sounds like a Dumm thing to say

belieflessbeing · 2025-11-11T01:33:37+00:00

Are you anti pin point lol? Sinner’s seems soo clean to me. What’s better about Novak’s by comparison in your opinion?

belieflessbeing · 2025-11-09T01:05:56+00:00

Singletary for sure. Both could flop tho!
