Fists Of Fiction

The main theme of this video is separation. Lupe talks about how these people, who are more than likely possessed themselves, try to separate their victims from the people that keep them grounded.  After the separation is complete, and the victim is isolated, they're then provided with a "team" that reinforces the negative behavior.  Do we not see this with satan? did the demons not possess the man and make him live in the cemetery by himself? is Divide and Conquer not a concept that's been practiced for ages? Lupe is saying nothing new here, but its still refreshing to hear. The second half of the video, he goes on to reinforce the need to keep sane company around, or, as the bible puts it in Proverbs 13:20 Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm. I'd like to note, that in regards to Elon Musk, Lupe is halfway right.  He's right in that Elon Musk is just a regular person, but wrong in his inability to grasp the ab...

Lupe Fiasco describes how the entertainment industry corrupts people, or more specifically, how people in the entertainment industry corrupt people.  They start of with the lie and feed the victims ego. "It was all you. They don't need you, YOU and ONLY YOU are the source of your success."  I wonder if this is the reason why, when someone "makes it big," their art usually begins to suck.  Its because they were convinced, by blood sucking leeches, to abandon the team that got them there in the first place, and once the team is gone, and the artist, their pride and ego over flowing, tries to 'do it on their own,' they can't. They think " IF IM IM THE TALENT, then I can make gold with anyone. I don't need my original team, they're all replaceable because I'M THE TALENT." That's when we get albums like MBDTF, Yeezus, Pablo, etc. Its why Alicia Keys fell all the way off. NO ONE can do it on their own.  I can't help but pictur...

 Son got an early lesson in communism today. Basically, he and his friends built a fort in a nearby forest. They probably spent a total of three entire days clearing it out and building it. One of his new friends, who only recently arrived in the neighborhood, saw their project, then showed up to the house one day and said “he wanted it.” My son stepped out of the house and said “you can’t have it. Me and my friends built it, but you can build in another part of the forest.” The friend looked confused, then talked about how it wasn’t fair and my son said kept saying no. He even went as far as saying he couldn’t make the decision because the rest of his friends weren’t there. After my wife told me what happened I promptly rewarded him with an extra hour of video game time. He deserved it.

  https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2020-09-21-xbox-buys-bethesda-parent-zenimax Microsoft has announced the surprise acquisition of ZeniMax Media, the parent company of Bethesda Softworks. The deal cost $7.5 billion and expands the number of development studios Microsoft owns from 15 to 23. It also adds 2,300 employees and some significant games IP to Xbox's portfolio. Among Bethesda's internal development teams were Bethesda Game Studios -- responsible for Elder Scrolls and Fallout -- as well as Doom developer id Software, Dishonored creator Arkane, Wolfenstein dev Machine Games, The Evil Within team Tango Gameworks, ZeniMax Online Studios, Alpha Dog and Roundhouse Studios.  Still won't be buying an Xbox. Fallout sucks and the sequel to Skyrim is only one game, but judging by how bad Fallout76 was, I don't think the Skyrim sequel will be any good.  Xbox only had two games I want, Halo and Ori, but thankfully, Ori just dropped on the switch...

For starters, I'm not calling anyone out. This is a response to the statement, not the person making the statement. With that being said, I must disagree with this statement. For the most part, people "with standards" are assholes. Now, before anyone screams "HA! You just told on yourself," allow me to explain. Before I joined the military, I boxed for six years, and the standards in the boxing world were, do your road work, eat clean, don't drink or do drugs, study the craft, come to practice. When I was a novice, I never hated anyone that lived up to those standards. Why? because they made sense. Don't do your road work, you'll gas out and get your ass kicked. Don't eat clean, you'll miss weight and get your ass kicked. Drink and do drugs, you'll become distracted and get your ass kicked. Miss practice, you'll get your ass kicked. That's how it was. If one was going to succeed in the fight world, one had no choice but to meet t...
