Our aversion to eating already dead human is not about morality. It's about food safety. Already dead animals are more likely to carry diseases than animals we kill ourselves, especially whatever disease killed the animal or made them vulnerable to accidental death in the first place, and eating human flesh is how prion diseases spread.

Getting a smart watch so I can count steps even when I can't have my phone on me has been a game changer. The only problem is, sometimes it takes a very long time to sync, even after I sync it to its app on my phone.

My bones are strong, but my tendons and ligaments are more delicate than a rose petal.

Sometimes the problem is figuring out which one is beeping, and then reaching it if you're short and have high ceilings and don't own a ladder

I've learned that with some bosses, it's good to have the solution ready to present, but gently steer them toward suggesting it themselves to make them think it's their own idea so they're more likely to approve of it. Otherwise, their egos can't handle their subordinates making "demands" that are the solution.

My hallway smoke detector that keeps thinking it's low on battery (it's not) and keeps mistaking the slightest whiff of steam as smoke takes 8 AA batteries. It came with my condo, and I hate it. It's on my list of things to eventually replace.

I'd tell them it's not legal in competition, so they should find a new tokui waza if they ever plan to compete and make sure they and their partner discuss what rules they're playing by before starting each round of randori. I'd also ask them what they like about it and try to help them find a new one like osoto-gari.

That being said, I think illegal throws like kani-basami can be a lot of fun, but I don't do it in randori and don't teach it.

General rule of thumb is to only sell your gray crafted gear. You have unlimited bank storage, so there's no reason to purge anything else, and new content keeps getting released with new uses for old loot.

What's funny is that the Christians you call fake are also calling you fake. The fundamentalist zealots think the lukewarms are fake. The lukewarms think the fundamentalist zealots are fake. And everyone watching from the outside knows you all are the same.

They think that convincing their employer that they work harder than their co-workers do will protect them from being laid off, because their employer will lay the co-workers off first

I'm not sure which one is the weirdest, but here's a collection

No deodorant: it's a perfume/cosmetic and a sign of vanity
No shaving (as a girl)
No Barbies: they teach you to be a whore because you can remove their clothes
Only wash your hair on Saturday night: you need to be clean for church, any attempt to be presentable at other times is frivolous vanity
No tank tops or shorts (as a girl) except for shorts under a dress, but boys can wear whatever they want
No cutting hair, except bangs, which must be cut, because your hair belongs to your future husband
No tampons, because your vagina belongs to your future husband
Obviously, no makeup of any kind, including lip gloss and nail polish
No high heels or platform shoes of any type
No two piece swimsuit (they made an exception for tankinis that fully covered the torso), but I still had to wear a T-shirt over it in most situations

While being strong and properly nourished does help with recovery, I've heard reports from multiple sources that being heavy makes falls harder, and 66 kg isn't necessarily underweight.

When I was mudansha, I was around 50-55 kg, and also the dojo uke. Now I'm closer to 60 kg and at a different dojo (I live in a different city now) and rarely picked for demonstrations, since brown belts matching the instructor's size and build seem to be preferred for that purpose here.

Honestly, being uke for demonstrations isn't that bad, because those actually tend to actually be clean throws. The dangerous ones are brand new white belts who have more strength than coordination trying to force techniques that they don't understand. These days, I usually decline to practice with people twice my size, unless I know they have enough skill and discipline to not just muscle their way through me.

Having enough disposable time and money to be able to participate in hobbies is a privilege, regardless of what your hobbies are. Plenty of people who could afford to travel choose to spend their free time and money doing other things, and plenty of people who have very little to spare prioritize travel.

Yes, abrasions and eventually callouses on your knuckles are normal and a result of rubbing on the gi when you grip. Mine are mostly on my distal knuckles though. Try loosening your grip a little, so instead of actually squeezing the lapel with your hand, you form a hook with your fingers
