Fists Of Fiction

  In boxing, the osmosis effect is when a less experienced or less skilled boxer gets better by training with or competing against a more experienced or more skilled boxer. The better the opposing boxer, the faster the less experienced boxer levels up.  I’ve known about this concept forever, but it can be applied to anything. Writing, fishing, photography; and the most important aspect of the osmosis effect is the more experience person doesn’t even have to instruct the less experienced one. Just being around someone better, seeing how they operate, is enough. Proverbs 27:17: As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another

  It’s not just SPD that has this attitude “The culture that supervisors instilled was that an officer cannot get in trouble for not doing anything but can get in trouble, via OPA (Office of Police Accountability), for attempting to do the right thing and the situation going poorly,” the officer continued. This has been rampant in the military for decades. It’s a simple risk assessment. One can 100% avoid trouble by avoiding as much work as possible, or one can attempt to work, risk getting in trouble for doing the right thing. Even worse, doing the right thing is no guarantee of reward. Why should someone do work and risk getting fired, for little to no reward, when they can do no work and 100% avoid getting in trouble? It's a no brainer.  In aircraft maintenance, it's rarely the people who do work that get rewarded or promoted, but its always the people who do work who get QA fails, additionally, its rarely the people who do work that get rewarded or promoted, but its always...

This is awesome. Yoshi-P says FFXIV Dawntrail was delayed a bit because he wants to play the Elden Ring DLC like everyone else. 😂🔥 Erdtree - June 21st Dawntrail - June 28th Early Access https://t.co/9pwohLvqev — Kami (@Okami13_) March 23, 2024 This video literally made me go buy Elden Ring on my Steam Deck, despite already having it on my PS4. Why?  One, I don't play my PS4 anymore. Two, Yoshi is delaying the release of their own game by a week because they recognize how good of a game Elden Ring is. Three, Yoshi is a gamer. He actually likes games. So he gets it. He understands gamers because he himself is a gamer, which means HES GOING TO BE PLAYING IT TO. When I box and my opponents talk about how they can't hit me, about how my defense is so good, I can't help but nod as my chest kinda swells with pride. The highest honor, aside from God's, is the praise of your rivals.

This is actually really cool pic.twitter.com/5OigMM4mWn — Jesse🌹 (@_WarriaR) March 22, 2024 As I said before. In the late 90's early 2000's, it wasn't about what the protagonists looked like. It wasn't about their skin tone. It was about the characteristics they embodied, or the adventure, or the story, or in this case, the friends one makes while playing the game. The most ironic part about about this entire situation is he's using a game, where the protagonist is covered in armor and you don't even see his face, to escape IRL bullying and racism. He didn't care master chief wasn't black or white. It didn't matter. What mattered was the friends he made, not the skin color of the characters in the game.  

 Before I start, chill out Christians. I don't mean this literally. Its only a phrase. Only Jesus can cover (forgive) sin. With that out of the way... As I've explained before; talent covers a multitude of sins. If you're good enough, NO ONE CARES about anything. If you have enough Talent, y ou can literally crash into a pregnant woman and flee the scene while high out of your mind, and people will still support you.   Whether its athletes or singers cheating on their wives, punching old men , drugging women (Bill Cosby), the list goes on and on, and that isn't only modern times. No. It seems, throughout human history, those who have tremendous talent seem to enjoy tremendous support. Benvenuto Cellini   Sometime later, Cellini stabbed and killed another of his rivals, a fellow goldsmith called Pompeo de Capitaneis. This one we know happened for real because details of the murder were recorded in official documents. And so, Cellini went into exile once more until the po...

This isn’t about whether or not DEI is needed (that’s a whole different post for a whole different day) rather this post is about whether or not DEI in this iteration actually helps minorities in the gaming space. The whole SBI/Gamergate 2 drama made me realize something, and apparently, I've been circling around this realization for quite some time , but I didn't fully realize it until the whole SBI/Gamergate 2 drama kicked off. Since its inception, DEI and SJW's have made it worse for minorities in the creative business. I grew up in the late 90's early 2000's and there was a plethora, and abundance of minority characters everywhere, and no one cared. Every fighting game had women and minorities fighting on equal ground with everyone else. So what if Mario and Zelda rescued the princess? Marle from Chrono Trigger didn't need to be rescued, neither did Ayla. The Androids in DBZ? the women in Naruto? Celes and Tifa in the Final Fantasy games. I could go on and ...

What is it about this expression that presents so many red flags?

  It seems Moon Studios is an oppressive workplace. Gaming fans know Moon Studios for its amazing Ori games with beautiful art and emotional stories. But a number of current and former employees consider the Ori studio an oppressive place to work. That is according to GamesBeat‘s interviews with Moon developers.  First of all, both Ori games are absolute classics and easily rank in the top 15 games of all time for me. Second, let's see what this oppressive workplace is like. HARSH. I don't know how the employees mental health was able to survive working in such an oppressive environing where you called retarded. While Moon’s games have won praise, those who left the company say they were scarred with mental health problems. This workplace sounds about as oppressive as an Xbox 360 COD lobby. I don't know, maybe the military, boxing, and friendship in general made me this way, but nothing about that workplace sounds oppressive. In the military, the word retarded doesn't e...

legendary physicist freeman dyson found it strange how God appears to be a mathematician. pic.twitter.com/xqqDo3t1xy — Ashwin Sharma (@Ashwinreads) March 15, 2024 When it comes to mathematics and formulas, we as humans have not invented anything, rather, we have simply discovered what was already there.    

  Cinematography 10/10 Characters 9/10 Acting 9/10 Story 8/10 costumes 11/10 I can go on and on about the shots, the coloring, the composition, but where they got me was costumes, the costumes were phenomenal. It was like the customer designer reached into my mind and pulled out exactly how I envisioned the Fremen would dress. At the end, when Paul was dressed in that hood, Lady Jessica’s ensemble and the person in the Mask holding the water of life! Bro.  I really enjoyed the Feyd in the arena and the fireworks, which looked like exploding ink, were dope. The entire scene was very creative, which is very ironic since it was in black and white. An interesting concept I think a lot of people may have missed was the requirement to be a WARRIOR before you can lead. The whole, don’t blindly trust charismatic leaders concept was there as well, but you can’t get to the leader part without first becoming a warrior. Both Paul and Feyd had to prove themselves in battle before being acc...

Haven’t been posting regularly because I moved across the country, school started, and of course, I’m writing, and boxing, and taking care of family so social media post tend to fall by the wayside. Anyway… The prequel to GOTW is up for pre order! Go pick it up.

https://t.co/ODxv4AeSOR I have no idea what they're saying, but I understand everything everyone is feeling in this video. R.I.P the legend! — fistsoffiction (@fistsoffiction) March 9, 2024 To say Akira Toriyama was a legend is an understatement. He literally changed the world for the better.  These images pretty much sum it up:

In the early 2000's, Ludacris skills on the mic were solidified. There was no award, no plaque, no huge party. No, it was so small,  and it happened so fast, if you didn't know what to look for, you would've missed it. I'm talking about Canibus vs Ludacris. Don't believe me? I got recipets! On 18 July 2000, Canibus released his sophomore album, 2000 B.C. Listen to the flagship single, 2000 B.C. here: On 27 November 2001, Ludacris released his third album Word of Mouf. Listen to the opening track, Coming 2 America, here: Notice something? Ludacris used the same sample as Canibus! Of course, you might say, that's a reach! It's just a coincidence they both used the same sample, and I would agree with you, if not for this! On 19 November 2002, Canibus released his fourth studio album, Mic Club. Listen to the 2nd track track, Poet Laureate: Notice something? the last bar at the end of the song?  Word of mouth is good but a mouth of words is better nigga No bo...
