  • I remember going to a mandatory counselling session at Uni as they were having a big push to be seen as pro mental health.

    And she asked me sonething like “Do you think [university]'s mental health policies have had a positive impact on your wellbeing?”

    And i said “no, it all feels very forced and like the university only wants it to appear like its taking steps to address mental health issues and things like these mandatory counselling sessions actually make me feel worse since it boths puts thst fakeness front and center and takes away my autonomy when it comes to how i address my mental health”

    And she just stops for a long moment, looks at me in the eyes with a slight panic before putting on a forced smile snd saying “okay im just going to put down that you said yes so we can continue :)”

    Pisses me off to no end that the libs and even many leftists in America are like “Trump is a fascist and they need to be stopped!!!.. by someone else while I sit and whine on the internet, or mayyyybe go out and hold a quippy sign so I can post it on reddit, if im feeling extra spicy”

    And then wonder how the republicans get away with this shit time and time again with no consequences.

    Look at somewhere like France. The government tries to raise the retirement age a few years and fucking riots start and the country grinds to a halt. And thats why France has some of the best workers rights in the entire world.

    If you want things to change you actually have to do something about it besides complaining on the internet










  • Bad teqnique, instead of two fists they should lay their hands on top of each other with palms facing up otherwise their forearms arnt rotated outwards so theyre presenting the sides of their arms as the platform instead of the flat undersides of their arms. And the impact point shoukd be the bottom of the forearm, just above the wrist, not the fists themselves. Knee bend and posture is pretty good though, although they should be extending during the contact to add power and direct the ball.
