How do you throw throwing knives properly?
well, first off you need a good throwing knife. knives are like people: most of them are good for one thing but not for others, like steve with throwing shields and steve with applying basic common sense. or like thor with electrocuting things and eating spicy foods. or clint with shooting arrows and basically any other facet of human life.
anyway, a good throwing knife will be quite sharp on the point but blunted along the sides–sticks in the target but doesn’t cut your hands. the point and blade should be pretty thick, and the fewer perforations in the blade the better. throwing knives have to withstand a hard impact without breaking, so you want a decent quality knife, and the heavier it is (within limits) the less force you’ll need on your throw.
you’ll want a good target to learn with, something big and soft enough that you’ll hit it and that your knife will embed so you know where you hit, but not so soft the knives fall out. deadpool may volunteer for this job. do not take him up on it. the commentary is not worth it.
grip the tip of the knife vertically between the pad of your thumb and the side of your index fingers. hold it firmly enough that it won’t slide in your grip but not too hard.
stand with the foot on the side of your throwing hand pointed at your target, spine straight. start close to the target (another reason not to use deadpool–blood splatters farther than you think) and work your way back as you figure things out. the biggest part is learning to throw with enough force and rotation so the pointy end sticks in your target. it’ll take time, and there’s really no shortcut for just putting in the practice hours.
if this does not work out for you, i recommend grenades for all your low-accuracy distance combat needs.
I might have depression, social anxiety, autism, a eating disorder and a unhealthy lifestyle and cant function for shit.
But guess what.
Reminder that being an ally doesn’t have to mean that you provide lengthy speeches or put on an elaborate display of your support if that’s not your thing.
Being an ally means standing up to bigotry and discrimination in your everyday life and taking small actions to make our world more equal.

ok, so it bothers me how disproportionate the support for trans men vs trans women is.
im not saying trans men dont deserve all the love and support in the world but so do us trans girls, like ill go to the ftm tag an see passing tips, clothing/binder hacks, an so much stuff but the mtf tag is full of chasers sissys an crossdressers. plus yall will post stuff like
all trans women are beutiful and need protection
but when one of ours sisters gets killed, or beaten yall seem to turn a blind eye??
not saying its everyone but ive mainly found that on tumblr an instagram. the lack of mtf support makes me so frustrated and mad
this is a poll taken from a trans support insta account. 176 people responed. 94% said they are FtM or nb which is fine, but only 5.6 percent were MtF. lets round the number up to 180 and with some simple math, 170 people out of 180 trans people (in this demographic) were FtM or nb, whereas 31 people are MtF. side note, when i look up MtF dysphoria help the first thing to come up is “FtM dysphoria and passing tips”. i was crying on my bathroom floor with scissors ready to cut my genitals off and when i looked for help it wasnt even for me and my sisters. the only passing and dysphoria help i could find is for closeted trans girls which is awesome but what about passing tips for trans women who are already out? the dangers of some trans girl things didnt even become known to me until i found a post on an obscure insta account with under 100 followers which detailed the risks of thing such as tucking, wearing tight push up bras, wearing excessive makeup for a long time, and sromach thinners/ waist boosters like coursettes. this is all i have to say but please reblog this. trans women such as myself and my sisters deserve so much more attention and support than we get.
TL;DR
trans women arent given enough attention or help is the trans community these days
reblog to help out our trans sisters out there closested or not
holy fuck can yall chill out. im just trying to point out a problem ive personally seen. if you think otherwise keep it to yourself because this post is not for discourse its about raising awareness. and who gives a singular fuck if im a transmed or not, respect my belifs and ill respect yours. and calling me ablesit @frogger-hates-pedos is so fucking wrong because i have a learning disability and it impacts my everyday life. yes ive posted questionable things in the past but they were MEMES. if you dont like or agree with what i have to say then please ignore it and saying that i shouldnt have a platform goes against the fact that i am a trans women advocating for our rights and addressing a problem ive noticed. thank you and have a nice night
Don’t cry because its over
Me: wow i feel great today.
A friend: wow im so glad to hear that, you’ve been trough so much lately i hope you have more happy days coming.
Me trying not to burst in laughter: APRIL FOOLS!!!!!!! My life is still a mess and it get worse every day😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
