Week #11 - A Great Achievement!

Last friday, the US Supreme Court made the United States become the 21st and most populous country to legalize same-sex marriage.

A great achievement for the mankind, more equality, more justice, more love. Because love always wins. We hope more countries follow suit, as the USA is a trend around the world. And make the world a better place to live, for all. Cause all we need is love. Love is all we need.

Week #10 - Star Wars is NOT a SciFi

Wait, wait, wait. Stop. Stop it right now.
Why'd you guys think Star Wars is SciFi? I've seen enough about this...!
Every single post about Star Wars in "so-called geek" websites uses the term "SciFi" to describe some movie, game or action figures.

That kind of wrong use of the term can DESTROY the actual meaning of it, and I'm here to explain why you guys are wrong.

SciFi, in your essence, is pretty based on truth, on things that really makes sense. To use this truth, arguments are used to explain how the characters or machine in the plot are doing or what they do.

For example: Star Trek



Who watch or already watched can remember that the most part of the plot was explain how exactly the Dilithium Crystal, the Transparent Aluminum, the Inertial Dampers and others rattletraps could affect the whole story. This things were required explanations to justify the USS Enterprise. Not like the Millenium Falcon that can enter and exit the speed of the light because f*ck you that's why, got it?



That only happens cause the fact that Millenium Falcon can enter the speed of light is completely irrelevant to the plot. I mean, you can easily replace the Millenium Falcon with a Flying Boat, the Star Destroyers with a Flying Carpet from Alladin, the whole story happening in the Middle Ages, and the plot would be the same...

Another point of view... all that stuff is just background like. Luke Skywalker is the hero. Darth Vader is the Dark knight evil dude, leader of the evil team. The hero defeating the evil team leaded by the evil dude. End of the story. Pure fantasy.

FANTASY. That's the genre/theme of the movie!

The real SciFi have always moral lessons too. Star Trek always shows Social Topics, like slavery, ecology, racism, abortion, women's rights, etc. Like others SciFi's too. Now, what's the moral lesson about Star Wars? There's none. It's a Fantasy plot in space, with robots, laser guns, lightsabers and spaceships exploding with sounds!

I'm not saying that Star Wars is bad. I love Star Wars! That's why I like to say right things about it.

That's all for today, until next week!

Week #9 - People

There are 7 Billion people in the world. BILLION.

How big is this number? If you count to 1 Million wasting 1 second for each number, you'll finish after 11 days. If you repeat this method, counting to 1 Billion, you'll finish in 31 years!

Did you realized how big is 1 Billion?
So, 1 Billion people is too much. 7 Billion is people as HELL.
Each one of them got a life more or less complex than yours.

That means when someone upsets you, is just a tiny fraction of this world that is causing you problems. According to math, it's just 0,00000000014%.

People will upset us. It's just an human condition...
Quoting some friend of mine "It's as if we were incompatible tiny pieces of LEGO trying to fit, constantly".

Never allow anyone get so MUCH significance. Remember that 7,12 billion people is too much people to allow that just ONE ruin the rest of your day.

Week #8 - Nostalgia

People sometimes says that Nostalgia is a danger state, cause it means that you aren't in good times now. I don't know if I'm in a good time, actually. But, nevermind...

This week I was remembering the times when I used to play Bully (PS2) by Rockstar Games...
Good old times! Me and my friends used to play every week on each other's house.

The most outstanding thing was the OST (Original Soundtrack), specially, the track that used to play when you are walking on the school campus.

Here is my Bass cover of the song... That's all for today

See you next week!
