...So I've finally gotten around to reading some Jose Ortega y Gassett, "The Revolt of the Masses" specifically....I was hoping for some more of his proto-existentialist "life as radical freedom in given conditions" philosophy, but most of this book would make a good bridge between Nietzsche's railings against the "last man" and The Frankfurt School's critiques of the culture industry.....All that babble is to say- damn good shit overall!!
...I move today, just a bit north and to an apartment which hopefully isn't a rathole dive- but who gives a fuck about THAT, when I've decided to finally buy a suburito(extra-heavy version of a japanese wooden sword used for martial arts training and body conditioning to gain some high-level physical skillz, yo...)
This is the model I might go with:
"100% Selected Japanese Red Oak, available in 3.8 shaku(115.2 cm) only. This is not just a heavy Suburi bokken, but a super heavy one. This Suburi bokken is the ultimate challenging to you."
