  • I'm sure there are plenty of activities that you could enjoy but never thought of. Try joining a sports club that isn't a gym, or a board games club, or a book club, anything really. It doesn't have to be something that you currently do or that you already enjoy, you can also try expanding your hobbies by thinking of cool stuff you'd like to do but never got around to try

  • Nah, too risky. What if during those two days someone puts a gun to my head and tells me they'll shoot unless I post the rowboat emoji? What if I'm stranded in the middle of a lake and need to communicate to an illiterate person that they should get their rowboat and come help me?

  • My father was an Arab muslim, and was involved in the fight for Palestinian rights for as a long as I can remember, until he died of cancer a few months before the October 7th attacks. I never really thought much about his activism and was never curious enough to ask him questions about what he was actually doing.

    When he was on his death bed at the hospital and I was staying with him, we got visited by members of his town's Jewish community. They told me he was a great guy, and that throughout his years as an activist for Palestinian rights he has always strived to build bridges between Muslim and Jewish communities and always made it clear that the palestine-israel conflict shouldn't be an excuse to antisemitism or islamophobia. They also told me he took part in a humanitarian trip in Palestine with them, as a translator, and was instrumental in bridging the gap between them and their Palestinian contacts. I never knew he did all that and it really made me proud.

    What sometimes still keeps me up at night is to think that, should he have lived to see the current events, he would probably have been called a raging antisemite by the assholes we see all over the media.

  • You know, I can somewhat understand how some people that have been exposed to Israeli propaganda can think Israel isn't in the wrong. I don't excuse it, mind you, because all the evidence is right here to disprove it if they bothered to check, but ultimately it just shows how effective propaganda can be in the information age.

    What I can't wrap my mind around is how a seemingly smart person can say they saw all the evidence, talk about the "carnage" going on and how "powerful people are hurting the weak", and still come to the conclusion that the real victims are those same powerful people responsible for the carnage. I really can't understand what must happen in someone's brain to be like that

  • I recall hearing in a documentary that filters were just yet another PR scheme by Big Tobacco to make smoking more appealing when studies started to show up about the health effects of cigarettes.

    I don't have a source in mind so don't quote me on this, but I even seem to remember that those filters are designed to take a yellow/brownish colour when you smoke to make it look like they filter out all the nasty stuff that would otherwise end up in your body

  • Yup, I've been in my (heterosexual but not married) relationship for long enough that the word "girlfriend" doesn't really feel like a good descriptor anymore.

  • I think it's both, or rather that the word "partner" doesn't fit in their very narrow view of acceptable relationships (heterosexual marriage)

  • I mostly do messer (based on Leckuchner's treaty), a bit of arming sword and buckler (based on the 1.33 manuscript) and recently started 19th century sabre (based on Waite's manual). They're all really fun but my heart goes to messer, it's such a fun weapon to use and the period really interests me.

    What's keeping you from getting back in?

  • So in May or June this year I had this idea about crafting myself a scabbard for a sword I use in HEMA. I bought power tools, plywood, wood glue, wood varnish, linen sheets, leather, a shit ton of leather making tools. Then it made me want to try out wood carving so I bought tools for that, as well as for wood whittling "to try my hand with smaller scale projects".

    6 months later, all I have to show for it is an unfinished knife sheath I tried to make to train myself and then lost interest in finishing

  • What I can say as a kinda new HEMA practitioner (only started 2 years ago) is that, while the mordhau/mordshlag isn't that common in historical fencing treaties, a lot of them have other creative ways of using a sword. The most common one is half swording, which consists in placing one hand on the blade of your sword to make it easier to aim at smaller targets like the opponent's visor or joints. It's also really common to use the sword as a wresting tool, by using the pommel or the blade to put you opponent in an arm lock for example.

    There's even one instance of a fencing treaty describing the act of screwing off your own pommel before a fight and throwing it at your opponent to distract them while you charge.
