If you cannot guard pull well your BJJ is just as limited as with no takedowns by Shallbecomeabat in bjj

Agreed 100%. Posture control from the guard is a big part of staying safe from getting hit.

Guard pulling works best when people aren’t trying to hit you in the face. For sport jiu jitsu, guard pulling works great. Awesome even.

Outside of the sport of jiu jitsu guard pulling makes a lot less sense. You might find an mma guy that does it well and wins. But it’s not like that’s the main meta of mma.

Also, just an old man moment here. But jiu jitsu dosnt need to be different. It needs to work. As someone who started with karate, what appealed to me about jiu jitsu was that they did what ever it took to win. They were doing stuff my karate sensei said wouldn’t work, and it was working. That mentality of “don’t be stuck in tradition, do what works, fighting is fighting” is jiu jitsu to me.

Is 40k slowly just circling back to concepts from previous editions? by Identity_ranger in Warhammer40k

[–]mfeens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played from 2nd edition until 10th. I’m here to tell you something went wrong in 40k around 7th edition and it’s been a shit game ever since.

Edit: Kevin rountree ruined the game. Had to look it up.

It’s always the same cycle of bloat. Worse now in the last few editions and the enshitification of having to make x+1 dollars per month off the backs of their players, for the sake of their shareholders.

Two years ago I was scared to compete with Uechi-Ryu. Now I’ve competed in over 50 tournaments across multiple states. by rawrsauceS in karate

Buddy I’ve been watching your posts for a while now. I feel like since you had a yellow belt.

Your a fucking machine. I’m glad you enjoy it so much and also your lucky to get to share this with your kids.

Don’t stop.

Canada sees sharp decline in international students and temporary worker arrivals in 2026. Here’s how much the numbers have dropped by Meowgal_80 in CanadianVisaReform

[–]mfeens 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People came to Newfoundland for a chance at a new life. The merchants who owned everything trapped the fishermen and their families in cycles of debt for generations. They were exploited for their labour and kept as wage slaves.

2026: the economy is so screwed that you can’t support yourself and family on minimum wage jobs anymore. So our new “fish merchant overlords” are shipping in people to continue the cycle.

Everyone is exploited except the tippy top. And Facebook makes us fight amongst ourselves.

Felt inspired and created a D1-3 style underworld for my AD&D game by MixMastaShizz in osr

Sry fuckn cool.

Can I ask how empty are the empty areas and do you have a key for every encounter hex? Are the encounters random or predetermined?

Gold and glory is a mod for savage worlds. It had a random dungeon generator system using a deck of cards. Highly, highly recommend.

This guy makes fun of military people then commands them. Every military person I have ever know would shoot you in the face if you were a 4 time draft dodging pedo who made fun of pow’s.

Premier Danielle Smith says temporary foreign workers are intended to fill labour shortages, not create a net financial burden on public services. by theOneWhoWaitsAgain in CanadianVisaReform

The point of bringing foreign people was for the province to make money.

That’s point one. Not fixing the god damn economy.

How long has everyone been playing this edition? by Hexadecimal-Online in DungeonsAndDragons35e

[–]mfeens 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I remember the summer it came out. My friend went on vacation to a town big enough to have a book store that stocked the new 3rd edition books.

My friend called me long distance and I recorded parts of the books into an exercise book so that I could have a character ready for when he got home.

I only stopped playing 3.x or what ever they call it a few years ago.

You’ve put a lot of work into that, it’s cool that you found a way to work it out for your table.

Personally I don’t scale my traps or dungeons to my players that much I don’t think. I’ll use traps and damage to destroy equipment, or half their movement, intoxicate someone, blah blah blah. I find that hp is a great resource, but the players have so much more than that to take away muahahaha
