Today I learned that Minecraft on the phone is so different now because this is the first time I’ve played bedrock on the phone since back when it first came out… I’m still stuck in the pocket edition era in my mind-nya.
I still remember the limited world only pocket edition. So nostalgic.

TIL Unlimited Combat aka Mad Dog Fist.


Commenters commented it to be Chinese Krav Maga but it does feel like proper self defense technique.

The importance is to value your life over your opponent's.

Because they fear a person who is willing to kill them than a person who is not.

So basically
RANMA kungfu. :blob_aww:

(anything-goes DOJO= in the manga / Happosai > Dad of ranma/akane > Ranma / Akanae too but more on strength)

Unbelievably was already thought of, since 1987 (ranma publish date)

This is a thread for people to share what interesting things they've learned today. It can be anything from introspective philosophy to finding out that you're not a normal person. I'll go first: Today I found out that not only do people think that eating garlic raw is weird, but I also found out that Taco Bell (Destroyer of colons and remover of 90's aesthetics) has been considered the healthiest fast-food restaurant in America for years and Chipotle has topped it this past year.
I recently started watching a C drama, Gen z. And I found out that people actually give bad ratings if smth doesn't has romance as the main plot?? I'm shocked. Because to me this series (and similar ones) are DOPE. I learn so many things. This also got me in acupuncture and TCM. I have started learning the basics 💕

That the term 'black boxer' has a spiritual meaning in the sense that the black boxer here is an evil being cut off from light that 'boxes in' a soul into the figurative boxing ring called the physical world and its rigid constraints where they are able to toy with you in a way you will absolutely dislike. I hate le demiurge so much

So Joe Biden has cancer. Something that is important to know, it's Metastasized. This would've happened a while ago as it's not an aggressive cancer. Here's the thing, it gives enough reasonable doubt to demand an investigation of who was running the Government when he received treatment.

Also, our magnetic north pole is actually the south pole, if you look into how magnets work, however it's called that because humans are fuckin stupid.

Oh, and the Magnetic north pole is moving, and will be in Siberia soon, like in a few years. And there is a chance this will lead to a pole shift

There is a persistent myth that Earth is overpopulated, however that's not the whole picture. We've ballooned up to over 8B people... congrats, you just filled up Texas. Recently, a report hit my desk, that stated there aren't enough 18 year old graduating, or even existing to keep our economy alive, if on life support. This sadly is true. However, there is a solution. Mongolia is a basis, upon which to build.

Note I made CGPT search for these sources, but I personally verified the info contained.

Totally no clue about politics, nor living in america
simply saw an upsure of memes about a dude and saying irony irony irony.

So asked grok. (ps: im not using twitter but asked grok-AIof twitter)


pps : AI praised my skills at analogies.
Wasn't David Hogg also the guy who thought it was a good idea to get rid of all of the so-called "Moderates" from the Dems.....which would leave him with nothing but the same old weirdo Progressive men can be girls and vice-versa, Trump is the Anti-christ types....? I suspect David Hogg will have a long career in Leftist politics, because he's just as stupid and crazy as the rest of them and they seem to favor, support, and breed this kind of lunacy in the modern Democrat Party.

They'll find him something to do elsewhere and out of sight for a while, he's too much of a lemming for them to get rid of permanently.

Wasn't the global flooding of the Younger Dryas, which gave rise to the stories of The Great Flood in pretty much every single mythology on Earth, caused by a magnetic pole shift?

TIL The “Grave with the Hands” in Roermond, Netherlands are two tombstones on opposite sides of a wall connected by two hands holding each other. This is for a Protestant/Catholic couple who had to be buried in separate sections of the cemetery.
