Don’t worry, your hatpin size is just fine sweetie

.... This is a flap jack type weapon dude. How is is it that impressive? Cops used to carry stuff like this.

They had to patch that part up after the Kool-Aid guy charged thrpugh it

Definately relate to the "life isn't about finding yourself but creating yourself and creating things". My mentor Robert Fritz elaborates on this a lot and when I really got that my life changed and know all I do is think about creating: whether it be music or relationships or any aspect of life.

Fully inhabiting the character is a big secret, loved the I'm Not There movie

I appreciate how you respectfully call out Shado who was arrogant in his dismissal of nunchucks as a viable, defensive weapon one might want in their arsenal, so to speak. And I really am glad I found your channel as you acknowledge, pros and cons, strengths, and weaknesses with enthusiasm, and no hubris.

I love the nunchaku more than life itself. OK...not that much. But a lot. And I know you said you won't get into the debate of whether this is the original nunchaku. But I have to ask: It is not really a sophisticated weapon. Do we really need to go into any deep dive of what the origin is at all? It's fun as an intellectual exercise, but I honestly think it was people realizing you can just connect two sticks together and swing them and smack the daylights out of someone. Does it really have to be more complicated than that? It's not like we can see a connection between how a bow evolved into a crossbow. I truly don't think it was that complicated. Just maybe a bunch of farmers had to protect their space, had sticks, had rope, and became Michaelangelo overnight. Turtle...not painter.

Can I ask where to get the best pair of chucks like you have?

I enjoyed this historical and informative article. I now own a 1976 vintage Colt .38 Detective Special (blued) with 2" barrel. Mine is third generation (1973-1986) with shrouded ejector, improved ramp sight, and hand filling walnut grips. The first generation Colt .38 Cobra (1950-1972) didn't have these features, but the second generation (1973-1981) did. Personally I much prefer these features. The first generation Colt .38 Cobra (unloaded) weighed 15 oz. vs. 17 oz. for the second generation. Of course, Colt's Detective Special, Agent, and Cobra were 2" or 3" barrel variants of their classic D-Frame Police Positive Special revolver (1907-1995). These are the classic .38's of "Crime Noir." They have all appeared in numerous cop and detective movies over the generations. Same for the J-Frame Smith & Wesson Model 36 and 37 Air weight Chiefs Special, and it's stainless version , the Model 60. It's lamentable the Colt .38 Cobra (first generation) used by Jack Ruby to kill Lee Harvey Oswald on November 24th, 1963 wasn't instead owned by a decent woman for personal armed defense, vs. a sinister figure who had links to organized crime and the underworld! It would have been an ideal carry gun for a woman kept discreetly inside her purse or handbag, next to the bed, or to have in an unplanned emergency such as being broken down, isolated, and alone (especially after dark) while inside her vehicle. Today I would personally select Ruger's SP-101 .38 Special revolver with 2.4" or 3.1" barrel, in stainless steel, as my personal carry and bedside .38. It may be a little heavy for a pocket or carry gun? With a good holster that would easily fit inside a jacket or coat pocket, especially during the cold winter months. Finally, Ruger's SP-101 is rated for + P .38 Special ammo, the older vintage .38's weren't .----Jim Farmer Klamath County, Oregon

I believe Roscoe White shot Tippit because he was supposed to TAKE LHO to Redbird airport and he panicked

I Love Halloween, the creepy ghost story season

the lurs are a kurdish people why do you separate us😕☹🙁

What state are you in? I'm surprised you have that in public know the cops would come question you. Still a cool weapon

man i love these breakdowns of the lyrical devices, something that songwriters rarely study beyond the basics

Only examples I can think of of someone expressing a spin on politics that surprised their followers are John Lennon's Revolution (where he decried the excesses of the left) and some statements by Neil Young where he showed support for some ideas of Ronald Reagan's. Lennon has also been rumored to have some sympathy for Reagan before his death, though he never publically supported him or clarified it.

The blood at the top of the stairs is where Roscoe white punched a service m an in the nose and took his film

You mention not knowing other mythologies where the world is held up by a living creature. I believe Yggdrisil, the World Tree would qualify. Earthquake are caused by the wurm Niddhog gnawing at its roots.

Lovely! I have one customized from a folding sickle and a rope dart

The guy with the straw and pop is that Houston Jones. 😂

My exwife did awesome beadwork up in Montana. If my memory serves me there are 2 kinds of bead work...peyote stitch which is through each individual bead into the leather and lazy atitch where you go through several beads then into the leather. I have some nice peyote stitch beadwork from her.

I knew Mortal Kobat's Raiden was inspired by BTILC. ALWAYS wondered about the 3 storms, as there seemed to be no direct chinese cultural reference to these guys appearance. .The chinese versions are actually inherited from Hinduism . THANKS!

Curious about the style of your friend you mentioned?

I recommend you to watch the film The Banshees of Inisherin, witty entertaining take on the subject and archetypes around it.

I've always felt this song referring to his own love as a "she", not "she" as another person or woman. He is speaking about his love as an emotional unit whose gender he identifies as a "she". Now he could also be fully mirroring those feelings and experiences of love to a specific "she" but in the abstraction he looses the other person, the unit is made of the feeling and the abstraction of that original person. Love-0 or "she"-0, doesn't really need the other to exist, to live or to be itself, it can be contradictory, it has no limitations and is certainly detached from the woman "she".

I just saw the episode and am scouring the Internet for one

Where can I find the image at 6:35 in this video? Thanks!

It's a great personal, artistic statement, but not particularly courageous. Anyone can decry "extremism," it's an empty epithet, it's a platitude, a non-statement. It's as meaningless as saying "Don't do bad things!" The question is, _what_ was it exactly that Bob thought was so "extreme"? Actually *naming* what you think the "bad things" are requires courage.

Wow, what an idiot hitting someone with a mallet in the chest which can do serious damage. That soldier clearly got off and hurting others deliberately

Looks like fun!

The leaves you photographed are morning glory (ipomoea), a plant with ethnobotanical importance

irritated me that so many of the martial art "weapons" shown in the major companies ( AWMA, Century, etc. ) catalogs and online are just flashy items that would be used for competitions and demonstrations, but would never be used to actually be a real weapon capable of serious use in defending oneself. Neon / light up handles, bo staff is half the thickness of a traditional bo and is featherweight, aluminum bladed weapons with no cutting edge, etc. so much flashiness... And in the case of nunchucks / nunchakus, they're not designed to really take or deliver hits, just swing around and maybe score points and whatnot, so I started making my own, and they're longer and heavier weight than those decorative toys you'd find in catalogs or on stage. Had a friend play with a pair, told me they were much heavier and slower than what he was used to using. I then broke a wood baseball bat with them... no complaints after that - recognized as a real weapon, capable of serious damage, not a toy.

Is this a one of a kind or are there many of these that were made from that era that are in circulation in collections?

Que pieza más hermosa, realmente digna de admiración. Creada por un artesano asombroso, para un dueño privilegiado.

The wondering mendicant.

The Wise Fool. The small dog his conscious mind, steeping off into the great unknown, the unconscious mind. The staff on his shoulder and bag, leaving behind the past. Powerful archetype..I refer to the Rider Waite.

Are we sure those symbols are "hearts"? See the coat of arms of the Italian Colleoni family.

Has anyone ever made any of these with tungsten weights in them? Would be more or less effective?

15:30 look at the guard on that sword - does not seem to be a typical tsuba - might be korean or other country sword and not a japanese sword -- also the sheath/scabbard if that is what that long object on the front of the man is - looks like its metal

9:30 dussage - dusack (maybe a country or regional spelling) part of the growth of the saber line of swords - scholagladiatoria has some videos on dusacks

Thank you dear American gentleman for explaining this song.❤

Actually It would be the Portuguese to have influenced the heart symbol in the tsubas, If we go with that theory. I'm dubious about it though. when we get together next let's get more in depth about the Yamabushi.

Love the 16th century playing cards

Hear in Bavaria, this symbol is traditionally used for the shape of the window opening in the door of an outhouse ❤

Nice laukaa mainittu

Im going to go with water lily leaves

“This is very dangerous but very fun” is not something you wanna hear let alone from a child, ever. It’s like saying “this is basically poison but it tastes so good” dang
