Posting content about a Trending topic has rewarded me 20 times more followers than content covering legitimate, quality subjects that I put an equal amount of work in. 

 

Pretty sad and shows why social media is the way it is and why some content creators just focus on trending topics only.

^ it's not about the aesthetics. The movie colors look fine. It's about the hatred that this movie spreads. It has a terrible message full of spite and resentment.

 

This is a symptom of a hateful movement (called the "Woke") that propagates like a virus. I've lost tons of respect for the actors who have participated in this mess.

Actual Facts

I am almost done with the audiobook for Witcher book 1 again, it is a brilliant work and first building blocks of the world of the Witcher.

An old, and massive flagship Barnes & Nobles (where I went to frequently throughout my life) has finally closed.  It was an exceptionally good book store with a lot of social activity and an extremely large and current selection of content, making it much more interesting than a library.   Literally people could go there and browse things all day long.  But was decimated by COVID & Amazon and never recovered.

It is sad notice. It is sad when good business of your taste close. I remember old shops and pubs, and sometimes very about It.

 

COVID destroyed two of my favorite places (a good steakhouse and this book store).  

 

What is concerning is how the whole 'town center' vibe is completely decimated in the US.  Malls are in very bad shape. 

I don't want to hear anything Dem or Libtard say "there is no proof".

 

Over 170 US Treasury "suspicious activity reports" (SARS) were filed by banks regarding the Bidens during Joe Biden's time as Vice President. These reports involve significant amounts of money being received by the Bidens from individuals with suspicious backgrounds, who are not American citizens. Numerous emails, receipts, and records exist, highlighting payments received by Hunter's company.

 

A trusted and paid FBI informant, who has been a long-term source of information, informed the FBI that the head of Burisma claimed to have paid the Bidens $10 million to remove the prosecutor investigating the company. The FBI partially verified the information contained in this report.

 

IRS whistleblowers testified under oath that they found a wealth of evidence pointing to potential money laundering and hidden financial activities by Hunter Biden. Unfortunately, they claimed to have been prevented from pursuing the investigations further by their superiors.

 

Also TRUMP 2024! I would like Vivek as VP.... and if for whatever reason Trump is unable to run as President, then Vivek has my support and vote. ❤️

Too bad the Republicans are feckless, weak, and backstabbers so nothing will happen unless the Democrats decide to remove him/do something.

Republicans better wake up if they want to win in 24. They were too dumb to figure out that the voting rules were changed before the 20 election and challenged them after the election results. The Uniparty and China working together to unleash the pandemic to effect the election so the above could happen is a story for another time.

 

Trump 2024!

Part of me wants to buy this figure but the other part of me knows that it doesn't make any sense from a lore standpoint and I already have the exact same figure but in (more appropriate) black armor.  It does look kind of cool but it doesn't match any of the other statues in the collection.

 

I think in terms of lore it is the exact opposite thing that a witcher would wear, and something that Geralt would have contempt for.

 

@Enrico_sw  @SympathysSilhouette  what do you think?

 

This armor is picked up in the Land of a thousand fables (Toussant relic armor)

Yeah, I remember this armor from Toussaint. It's not my favorite... it's too shiny and it doesn't look like what a knight would wear either. The steel version is better.

 

And from Toussaint, Damien's armor is my favorite. I also like hjs sword

new hardcover for book 7

I'm starting to think that I should really read the witcher's books that I have bought a long time ago...

 

So in the books, I hear that he doesn't wear two swords on his back (which is what this cover seems to show as well - the second sword seems to be at his waist?)

Well, well, well... the most "virtue signalling" are often times the less virtuous. Political correctness is a fool's game. Always was. Always will be.

Youtube is turning itself into more like Tiktok and heavily boosting Youtube shorts over their long form videos.  This makes it less attractive to invest huge amounts of time to make high quality long form content.

 

I think this will probably in the long run decrease the quality of the long form videos, like how streaming ruined films.

The golden statue costs around $100 with shipping & taxes.  It is a limited edition with only 2000 copies.  I have the normal Touissant Knight armor, looks like this:

I searched around and it turns out that Gold armor was typically worn by Kings or high nobility.  It seems to be more ceremonial/symbolic than practical.

 

Damien's Touissant Captain's armor looks to be missing the breastplate.   like padded leather, maybe with chain mail inside? I don't know.  It seems that in general, the knights of the Touissant guard wear dark read and black stripes undernealth.

All the books are on youtube, narrated by Peter Kenny the last time I checked.

 

Sapkowski a few days ago said that he is working on Book 8 and will be done in 1 year.

 

The 2 swords on his back varies in the books.   He is usually wielding one Iron Sword with the Silver sword stored on Roach.  If he needs silver he switches the sword.  But he is written as carrying 2 swords on his back sometimes as well.
