Reverse Katana test from shadversity

since the reverse edge sword is from kenshin which is designed to be a sword that does not cut, that is hard to use as a sword, their rating of the concept as a sword i feel is correct, but also validates the sword's purpose. This sword should be rated low as a concept for use as a violent weapons, which makes it perfect for kenshin to use for his nonviolent purposes. The caption should be: It Sucks YES!!! as this is a good thing that it isn't preferable over other similar weapons.

Do you know what a machicolation does?

learn below

What does the standardization of grammar mean?

the introduction

This is a time of much division. Families and communities are splintered by polarizing narratives. Outrage surrounds geopolitical discourse—so much so that anxiety often becomes a sort of white noise, making it increasingly difficult to trigger intense, acute anger. The effect can be desensitizing, like driving 60 miles per hour and losing hold of the reality that a minor error could result in instant death.

If unconvinced I said the following about the film, The Intruder

the movie was a financial failure but Roger Corman admitted this was an art film, which he was able to barely afford, but he wanted to do. Comprehend this movie had to be a loser. Shatner's character didn't die? the rich guy of the town wasn't convicted of some crime. The black guy didn't become a hero. The truth is, the intruder speaks to the truth of alof of interracial situations in modern humanity. It is the same as the pawnbroker with rod steiger.

The populace in the usa: white black or other, likes convenience. Likes narratives. Any art that goes against narrative is rarely liked. If the matrix ended with neo being killed and the system rebooting and then in some far date in the future, the sun returns and the machines don't need the matrix for power, that would bea downer. audiences like a set narrative.

What is the lesson in the Palestinian?

Notice I didn't ask about their relationship to jews/zionists/israelis. The Palestinian at once time circa 1947 had a situation that had two main problems for them.

1) Their country was governed by an outside force, the united kingdom of britain

2) A set of immigrants with ever growing support from The United States of America- the most powerful military among the college of human governments on earth circa 1947 plus said united kingdom wanted into their country.

The lesson is straightforward: never accept foreign control + never accept immigrants who don't share your heritage plus culture. If you do these two things you end up like the palestinian in israel as well as the native american in the usa.

Don't be a fool.

Dark Academia

The following is a question and answer I gave concerning the Dark Academia artistic theme.

Do you have any favorite pieces of media that fit the dark academia theme?

I can't say the following film is most beloved or most favorited by me, but I like the films: "the covenant" ... I recall an old legend, I do not know where it is cited online, I read it offline. The old legend, told my way, says that in spain, under a mound somewhere, is a gateway to a classroom. In this classroom, a negative spirit teaches all the students spells pertaining to shadows. The students live there and at the end of the course, the student with the worst grades must stay , their soul locked their forever.

How do you feel about dark academia as an aesthetic? Would you incorporate elements of it into your art or everyday life?

In my mind dark academia and the modern goth artistic movements are similar. I am an open minded artist so I don't have any biases to any aesthetic. I am not one to dress in it, but it is fine if someone else does. I know people offline who are goth or have a similar taste. In terms of my own work, I can't recall anything that is dark academia. But I have written quite a bit. I have written work that deals with people learning magic and doing negative things but I don't see that as dark academia. Just learning negative magic or powers doesn't equate to dark academia for me. IF so, then every sith student in star wards is an example of dark academia and I don't see it that way. I think the larger environment has to bound to the darkness. Having house slytherin doesn't make harry potter dark academia. Now, a story about Durmstrang, the rival school to hogwarts, that teaches the full spectrum of dark magic <if you want me to write something, message me>

Share dark academia art in your comment, whether you made it yourself or a favorite artist did!

I realized I have little to nothing in my deviantart galleries that fits dark academia... here is what I think fits, I am open to read your thoughts on whether you think it does or does not:)

the following is some art of mine I think is Dark Academia, what say you?
