the Flats Hollow Sector # 12 - happy National Susan B. Anthony day issue

Susan B. Anthony (February 15, 1820 – March 13, 1906) was an American social reformer and women's rights activist who played a pivotal role in the women's suffrage movement. Born into a Quaker family committed to social equality, she collected anti-slavery petitions at the age of 17.

Famous for "the purse protest" - 

(a) Feminists invented purses to shed the corsette.  (b) Without those "breath-taking" undergarments, they could finally breathe.  (c) These dresses contained numerous giant pockets, weighing down emergency movements. 

This garment was used to constrict females, literally, physically, and socioeconomically.

These women, like the bra-burners who came after them, developed into the "Flappers" (like gulabi gang)

Whereas before women's self defence relied on sleight of hand, these days they could openly move against rape.

circa 1900s-1930s, the development of the first wave feminist fashion style(s).

pictured: 1920s random fashion model, long hair was not a defence concern, and bellbottoms radicalised the international markets.

This woman was ahead of her time, because pants didn't become "acceptable" until the 1980s.

Not only was Susan B. Anthony fighting to abolish slavery, yet risked her life in defensive clothing.

Susan B. Anthony was very passionate about her avant feminist clothing choices: 

“Let me tell you what I think of bicycling,” Miss Anthony said, leaning forward and laying a slender hand on my arm. “I think it has done more to emancipate women than anything else in the world. I stand and rejoice every time I see a woman ride by on a wheel. It gives woman a feeling of freedom and self-reliance. It makes her feel as if she were independent. The moment she takes her seat she knows she can’t get into harm unless she gets off her bicycle, and away she goes, the picture of free, untrammeled womanhood.”

Any "dress-wearer" knows the plights and struggles of suffering "the bicycle conundrum"

Susan B. Anthony continued: 

 (Bloomers, the feminist avant fashion style) “Are the proper thing for wheeling,” added Miss Anthony promptly. “It is as I have said — dress to suit the occasion. A woman doesn’t want skirts and flimsy lace to catch in the wheel. Safety, as well as modesty, demands bloomers or extremely short skirts. You know women only wear foolish articles of dress to please men’s eyes anyway.”

Here, you see the vast divergence in her press release: her compromise with a traditionalist audience.

Famous 1920s news magazine comic, Flapper Fanny: 

 "Wives Make a Number of Husbands Good Listeners"

(a Flapper shopping by herself)

"Nobody knows why some people insist on reading creepy ghost stories. It's a fright!"

I, for one, applaud the early 1920s bellbottoms proponents.

I posted a Japanese philosophy 101 about Guzen versus Hitsuzen, so they started a Guzen collective. 

Hitsuzen is an untranslatable word, similar to "Universal Structuredness".

Guzen, on the other hand, is similarly untranslatable, for "randomness to end and kill everything." 

It's a standard interview during ethical recruitment, to force them to choose a side in that war. I didn't wake up very well, but I'm on the side of Hitsuzen, while I continue to have the choice.

I don't want to sound cheesy, but a lot of people have seen too many stupid movies.

uh... I dunno how long I've had compromised networks, but it's more than annoying.

It's basically just a random streetsign with a few threats scrawled on it in gibberish.

The issue started when my selfie got halfway deleted, while covered in make-up. It just sort of kept going until there’s streetsigns like this protest cloth.

the Flats Hollow Sector # 11 - well, it seems I wasted 25$ on UNIFORM VERSUS WALL the popular MMORPG series, welcome to the gun gale online issue

welcome to “the world” of UNIFORM VERSUS WALL, sword art online.

I know how to run a grappling hook. The line runs partway.

I spent 2 sessions trying to get past this embarrassing wall.

I have to stare at a ladder while I aim a grappling hook, as quest # 1.

Guess what? SteamPowered.com wasted my 25$ in platinum.

There’s a convenient time-limit on returns, and they’re justified, however rude.

I support that time-limit, but I didn’t want to wear a miniskirt in a faulty render.

I don’t care about other people’s footage and success. My UFG works bad.

NEWBIE ISLAND IS THIS PIT OF ETERNAL UNIFORM VERSUS WALL.

the Flats Hollow Sector # 10 - A public insult to Donald Trump, morale poster issue

context: verbally attacked by a "self-described communist for hire"

top kek: 

"I have been teaching classes for years on how to debate, this is not a debate"

described morale poster:

a space-image of earth, 2/3rds view, with a technocapital grid over the atmosphere.

the macrotext displays "There's you, and then there's normal stuff like 5G"

the typefont is specific, and in a 40% gray meme.

additional top kek: 

"I don't support Trump, but 5G isn't in phones yet."

final top kek: countless media articles convey: 

"Trump blocks 5G imports"

Common tech headlines during Donald Trump's first presidential term:

"Trump blocks 5G imports from China" (can be searched and found via honest presses)

additionally:

CNET: https://www.cnet.com/news/how-5g-got-tied-up-in-a-trade-war-between-trump-and-china/

Sources via suggested search, probable standard for media links here.

CNET descibes a predicted trade war, and its results.

Foreign Policy discusses import controls and BDS (boycott, divestment, sanctions).

NPR details the problems with Donald Trump's ban on 5G causing "global ripples".

Legal Notice: I am not the “self-described communist for hire”. Obviously, the entire point is that this debate prompt is obviously not Debate material by Reddit.com standards, while Trump stalls the world market against 5G technology. The “self-described communist for hire” is obviously that weird dude who’s been coaching for years while not knowing how to hold a basic debate, not even politely.

the Flats Hollow Sector # 9 - the How I learned Zen Buddhism issue

[01:53 - 01:58]: A Buddhist uses Mala beads when there's been concentration issues, to feel the passage of time.The gravity of the Mala beads works like a clock with gravity, as well. There's 108 widgets on the string. Between the 108 widgets of my anodized 10$ Buddhist Mala beads, is a tassel for the cycle respawn. 

The tassel reminds us Buddhists about our myths of reincarnation, and the dead Buddha. 

Wrapped and secured via a captain's knot set is a formerly white twine, in reference to desired marriage. It contains my keepsakes on the tassel in case of crises, a medical fob to cure winter depression. And conclusively, I hold onto a set of ancient luck coins which have been attributed to Lao Tzu. 

In certain zones occupied by Confucianism, it became popular to trade 3 copper metals, to exchange luck. Tao te Ching developed around the same eras as Confucianism, and it is not a religion, nor related. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[01:58 - 02:05]:

It is honourable and proper for a Zen martialist only to meditate near death, especially with Mala beads. During training, the leadership team of monks with the most skillset teaches you how to sit properly.

There is a pose that you are encouraged to take, or else they slap you with their palm, to fix your back. You take a Lotus position, if you cannot survive, or have given into despair, and you stare at the crease of a wall intersection, with no thoughts.

If you get bored, the leadership team of monks fixes your back again. You meditate until your posture is no longer corrected, then you wander off towards a proper temple.

My only Buddhist book contained via my personal library records, is a collection of ancient case files. We are known as the Rinzei sector of the martial arts practice known as Zen.

Zazen is a training technique, and a skillset aid, during times of troublesome thoughts. Pioneers in this martial art cross-fertilized the spiritual practice, until it was known as aghana. (unrelated to the African nation, and a completely different language from the Japanese word)

I have officially transmitted what I learned during an unknown span of my life in training. I refer any and all questions to the Zen book of case files, "Entangling Vines, a Koan record".

Entangling Vines is a translation of the Shumon Kattoshu, the only major koan text to have been compiled in Japan rather than China. Most of the central koans of the contemporary Rinzai koan curriculum are contained in this work. Indeed, Kajitani Sonin (1914–1995)—former chief abbot of Shokoku-ji and author of an annotated, modern-Japanese translation of the Kattoshu—commented that “herein are compiled the basic Dharma materials of the koan system.” A distinctive feature of Entangling Vines is that, unlike the Gateless Gate and Blue Cliff Record, it presents the koans “bare,” with no introductions, commentaries, or verses. The straightforward structure of its presentation lends the koans added force and immediacy, emphasizing the Great Matter, the essential point to be interrogated, while providing ample material for the rigors of examining and refining Zen experience. Containing 272 cases and extensive annotation, the collection is not only indispensable for serious koan training but also forms an excellent introduction to Buddhist philosophy.

Personal Note on the Book:

Apparently, these testimonies happen so often that there’s a case file collection here via Entangling Vines, a most reputable Zen Koan Edition.

Legal Notice: I didn’t say that any nation is bad. I mentioned a coincidence.

I think this could make for a pretty iconic TV show car, similar to the likes of KITT, the DeLorean, or the A-Team van.

I hate this film, but it sets the artfilm standard for a reason.

It is, in the new Millennium, what Holy Mountain did, with more variety.

You’d probably find it airing from any art theatre marquis.

Mad props to them, because most art theatres don’t give websites.
