Welcome To My Blog! (Or, the Welcome Page running on a cheap 2006 Modem)



Here are all the different, cheap intros I've made over the years and am copying over to my blog:


My thoughts on writing:
Writing is the greatest, occasionally, I mostly like Classics, not just the ones with some interesting characters, maybe heavy philosophical implications sometimes, or maybe the soft, and interesting ideas... But perhaps the heavy beauty, the imagery, the complex plot, and all-around exciting content.


I think Wattpad is one of the most challenging websites to even gain a hint of notoriety or even attention from. You can build 168 followers over 2 years, yet never even earn a single ounce of views from an actual reader, except for someone begging for likes on their own content.


Absurdity is the medicine to live, or the medicine to all horrible stories... Make the story absurdly unrealistic, sprinkle in some character development, add some zany, craziness, and you get a story. Oftentimes, it comes out great, like a shitty formula, it always works.




My thoughts on books:
H.P. Lovecraft, Mieville, Melville, The Last Man, Philosophy, Grecian Books, The Odyssey, The Illiad, Dunsany, A Brave New World, 1984, Animal Farm, Dante Alighieri, Scaramouche, Borges, Chekhov, and more. These books I consider as good, fine, eh, and great. Books are not praised highly above all, they are another form of media, telling a story, but giving a message of high importance, depending on the quality. 

I feel horribly toward every book that contains the same tropes, same themes, and same things. I like classics, although not all of them, but books that are influential to the thought-processes of the West and East, albeit I have my focus on the West in the current moment. I have tendencies to like Western critics like Bloom and Northrop Fry, but I also like the olden critics of Nietzche, Samuel Johnson, Kant, Borges, Aquinas, and more. 

But, I lie more in a historical spectrum of the olden ages, sometimes renaissance, sometimes naturalists, sometimes Romantics, or Keat and Auden and Eliot and more. Pulp is interesting, a certain nostalgia, I feel toward it, and as with Graphic Novels and Comedy. I like Modern culture, modern dystopias, modernity, postmodernism(sometimes), and much more.

The Three Greatest Scenes in Seven Samurai

By
  The First Greatest Scene In Seven Samurai The beginning scene where they recruit the samurai. It's exciting, and fun. The beginning of a slow tragedy, and this is the start of it. They begin with recruiting the team(an innovation at the time, now the singular most well-known and most-used plot trop in action and heist films). The first Samurai Kambei, they ask for help, the second Samurai, Gorobei(Chopping Wood), Heihachi(Trapped Him), and Kyuzo,(fought against another man), and his friend Schichiroji, and Kikuchiyo, and also Katsushiro, a young man who wishes to be a Samurai. This is one of the happiest, most fun scenes, in the movie overall, because it does not, in the slightest bit, foreshadow the consequences and tragedy to come. The Second Greatest scene in Seven Samurai The middle scene is where Kikuchiyo gains retribution against the Samurai that have brought battles, raids, taxation, and forced labor that devastate the villager’s lives. He reveals his origin as an orphane...

By

So, Rikichi and a group of other villagers set off to another village to search for Samurai. There, they meet Kembai, after he shaves a sign of Samurai Honor, a braid of hair, and saves a child from a kidnapper.

Differences And Similarities Between The French and American Revolutions

By
  Both the American and the French Revolutions were interesting parts of both histories of two different modern worlds, modern America and modern France. But to the American people, the revolution meant freedom, liberty, and release from oppression, while the French revolution was bloody, violent, and unforgettable, and ended Bourbon rule, changed land ownership in France, lost power for the French Catholic Church, spread Liberalism, laid the groundwork for communism yet unified and enhanced the power of France. It also tore down ancient Feudalistic, classist structures, and introduced nationalism and modern, total warfare into Europe. Although the monarchy was ultimately restored in the end. In both revolutions, the Americans and the French dealt with a taxation system that seemed unfair to both citizens. The French despised the taxation system due to the unwise choices of the government, such as their involvement in the American Revolution, and unwise spending practices by the Ki...
