Sounds interesting. Can I DM you? I have mine closed but will open.

I've just been looking for that. That was my last class. I'm not in the States so local training is scarce. I might find someone before I break out a video class.
comment in response to post
Thanks. I actually was just wondering why I didn't stay in training a little longer.

Auntie, I just told everyone we're not street fighters. Well, for the few of us on Blue Skies who aren't armed pirates and martial art masters and bouncers, do be careful out there.

Thanks. I loved the training. I went to a few dojos over the years. I'm very tall, when I'd walk in the door, trainers would get trophy stars in their eyes. I was this kid who just wanted to be more coordinated. Yes. at least one practical self defense for everyone. Especially women.

I want you in front of me on the picket line. I actually went to a Bushido training school but ofc we were all babies at it
comment in response to post
Oh that is great. I've had some training, nothing like that ofc. Respects and I hoped to add to your statement. Because we have to be a lot tougher than most of us are to take to the streets.

San Francisco, but many many years ago. I heard him asking to see her rings, a few seats in front of me. It was incredibly stupid, ofc I didn't know what the outcome would be.
comment in response to post
He punched her, full in the face, as hard as he could, spinning her back. It was one of the most horrific things I've seen. The moral, is nothing about you can't hit, it's you never want to take a punch like that. Man or woman. More knowledgeable ppl will chime in ... but we're not street fighters

We are all Nazi Punching Experts in our hearts! Thanks for the inspiration. II was on a bus once. A big guy asked a woman to see her ring. And she gave it to him. Ofc he refused to return it. He was standing in the aisle within inches of me. He had huge, muscular arms. He punched her - 1/2

It sounds like it's time for the Senate Home for the Elderly to assist their doddering colleagues out the door. Now Dems, this might not be what you signed up for in 1845. We understand. Consider whether it's time to go. Leave Grassley though. He is a shining beacon to the geriatric set.

It is. It's easy to work too.

Vance is parroting what Proj 2025 wants him to say. What is the motive of this offensive anti-American line? idk So much of what they're doing is calculated to stun and make us think all their wretched excesses are inevitable. Proj 2025 is more important to him than the US Constitution.

i think JD is on board with that tyranny situation. Now, if someone calls him a name - like weird or couch fker, he melts like a little daisy.

Donald doesn't need much cover if he thinks he won't be in another election again, one way or another. Now what the rest of those jokers in the GOP think they're going to do? They're probably too scared of Trump to peep.

Makes you wonder what Thiel, Musk, and Vance's plans are for Donald. 🤔 Hopefully not much. I've got a big mouth, but I'm too old to fight. And those guys won't fork over the reins of power when asked politely.

I don't know what kind of conflict of interest or overstepping or data theft will be his undoing, but I hope this attention to detail and his insufferable entitled narcissism contributes to this downfall.

And he still can't buy a date with Taylor Swift.

Vance thinks 'VP' will save his Weird Couch fucking ass. Wrong. His puppet master Thiel picked an idiot as his frontman. These villains got away with a lot when they were behind the scenes. Musk is whooping around like an inebriated mayfly. We'll have a lot of clean up, but they will crash.

Please post the report from @raskin.house.gov on the specifics for how citizens can/should/will sue miscreants for theft of their treasured, very private, sacred data. Many curious minds want to know.
comment in response to post
They definitely are. I can't check the timing atm, but they filed on Fri and got the injunction on Sat on one major issue. 13 states.

See my pinned post about how American voters must control US elections.

There is one place where the term echo chamber works. It's when the converted sit around talking to themselves. Even writing here about voter suppression, for example, is a useless activity, possiblity destructive, if one person thinks commenting means action was taken. That's me. What do you think?
