"The reasons behind the buffalo attack on the trackers remain unclear".This journalist really don't get the basic correlation of an animal attacking back?
During high school our class went to this guided experience that was called "Dialogue in the Darkness".It was basically a tour in this building with all light blocked out, total darkness, so no one could see anything and each room we went through a scene in the normal life of a blind person.I particularly remember when they made us order something at a bar and then pay with cash. The struggle to figure out what coins I had without seeing them is something that I never tinked about before that moment. It made me understand that there are many aspect of our lives that we take for granted just because we don't have a disability. Sometimes I still think about it
When you say "pride in hypotetycal tribal bands that may have never existed" what do you mean? You don't believe that human beings evolved in tribes or don't believe the members of these tribes felt a sense of common well-being that we call "pride" which have helped our evolution?
Collective pride is real and there are a lot examples of it, but it works with small sized groups and when it does it feels great. Because of course we're a social species, but our monkey brain is built around tribes and doesn't conceive whole nations.
And that's why, for example, when I see people cheering for an athlete just because all their parents happened to fuck within the same imaginary lines, I find it really silly.
But I know that's me, I have no problems with people who have a healthy national pride. I'm just saying I don't and never had.
Good for you man, but in this case I guess that you're proud of yourself and in the achievements that helped the people around you.You don't have "second hand pride with extra narrative on top" from people that died long before you were born
The Klon Centaur is a highly praised guitar pedal that, since it had a limited production, has an unsustainable price for most of the players (some people paid up to 20.000$ for one).Luckily the circuit is easy to copy and over the years many clones from other brands came out. But still, the original one holds a special charm and has become a higly collectible trinket.
If I had to identify a game that radically changed the public perception of videogames, that would probably be The Legend of Zelda.It was one of the earliest examples of modern gaming, changing the game design from an "arcade" standard to something that was more suited for home consoles.
My phone is always on vibration since 4 phones ago. If I miss it I'll call you back, If I don't that's your answer
