So here's the first one. The plan for here is going to be a blog for denim, boots, various men's fashion nonsense, finding ethically sourced and sustainably made clothing, and my thoughts on how to put all that together into an outfit I feel good about.

While I don't really want this to be about me (see the face) I'm obviously going to be pretty heavily featured (everything from the neck down).

To start off, I've had an absolute bitch of a time finding anything that fits. I'm 6'4" with long arms and big, fucked up hands. That makes tees, shirts, jackets, rings, and watches all difficult to size and feel good about.

The upside to how shitty I felt about getting dressed for so long is I've spent absolutely boatloads of money finding things that do fit, that we made ethically and with quality in mind, and that I can figure out how to wear easily.

I have absolutely no audience in mind writing this so hopefully I keep it up, I find a voice that feels authentic, and this goes somewhere other than the graveyard all other Jan 1 projects go to.

Lastly the clothes themselves

Jacket: Rogue Territory Sashiko Jacket (XXL)

Hoodie: ASRV of some sort (XL Long)

Pants: Edgevale Cast Iron Pants (34)

Boots: Redwing Iron Rangers (Size 11)

Halt, pissed off, yells in Hibernian:

Crowley, shouts back: I don't understand but likewise!

Halt, stops shouting immediately:

Crowley:

Halt:

Crowley: Okay, now I need to know what that meant

Halt, just a little tiny bit confused: Nothing

Crowley: Come on!

Caitlyn, smiles:

Halt, panicked for the third time in his life: NO DON’T YOU DARE

"[Video ID: A young Ferris and another young ambiguous prince (we'll call him Elliot) stand side by side. Elliot has a birthday present in his hands. He says, "Happy Birthday, Bitch!" with a big smile, and exaggerating the bitch part. During this, Ferris glances down at the gift, his expression with a small smile, but then glances down at it again with a more angry expression.

Elliot starts saying Happy Birthday again, but Ferris interrupts him saying, gesturing towards the present, "So you just gonna bring me a birthday gift on my birthday-" (The camera switches to Caitlyn and Halt. Caitlyn looks uncomfortable while Halt's thinking, "This Bitch"). "-to my birthday party on my birthday-" (The camera switches back to Ferris who is seen from over the shoulder of Elliot. Both of his hands are up in a "why?" pose). "-with a birthday gift?"

Elliot stares at him for a moment with a blank expression. Then he says, with another big smile and twinkles in his eyes, "Happy Birthday?"

He quickly gets hit in the face with a champagne glass, dropping the gift. /End ID]

[Extra ID: Elliot has light black hair than Ferris, and his hair is cut shorter too with no curls. He has an ahoge. His eyes are big and blue, and he wears a red outfit with big puffy sleeves with ruffles at the ends. Three gold, elongated buttons keep the outfit together in the front. There is natural blush on his cheeks. Ferris has a green outfit, brown skin, dark eyes, and shoulder length hair. Part of his curly hair is in two thin braids leading to the back of the head, where they are held together in a small pony tail. /End ID]

Colton?) were based on Halt and Ferris #but to me they're different enough. Like their personalities are totally different and they actually love each other soooo #ra memes

The Dialectical Humanism of Big-Ass Robots: An Intro

“There’s a deep, earnest seriousness to most mecha shows (especially within the “real robot” subgenre) that implores the audience to grapple with intricate ideas and themes drawn from philosophers like Aristotle, Nietzche, and Rousseau, oftentimes complete with allegorical mouthpieces for competing ideologies.”

My high school students always lose their shit when I tell them that I, Coach Werner, also watch anime. I kinda feel bad about it. By now, I know I’ll see the excitement die from their eyes little by little as they pepper me with questions, searching for a connection with show after show after show.

“Coach, have you seen Jojo?”

“Nope.”

“What about DBZ or Naruto?”

“Not since before you were born.”

“Attack on Titan? Utena? Tokyo Ghoul?”

“Not yet, though they’re on my list.”

“The fuck Coach? I thought you said you watch anime!”

When I tell them I mostly watch mecha, they get confused. After I explain that mecha are the ones with jumbo-sized robots, they groan. I’ve even had one kid say that didn’t count. As a general rule, I try to not let the opinions of 15 year olds hurt my feelings; I only docked his grade a couple points.

Whatever my students may think, oversized anthropomorphized robots have fascinated me since I was a kid. Over the years, as I’ve revisited shows from my youth and found new mechanized, cel shaded rabbit holes to tumble down, I’ve tried to figure out what exactly was so appealing about the genre. There’s definitely a bit of wish fulfillment, a sorta kaiju-sized power fantasy, sure, but that’s not all of it. Same with intricate sci-fi world building, and of course the thrill of pew-pew dogfights and beam saber duels. But none of those alone seemed to account for the whole thing. They’re all fun set dressing, definitely worth a watch on their own but not enough, I don’t think, to capture my imagination for nearly a quarter of a century.

This series, The Dialectical Humanism of Big-Ass Robots, started off as a rambling, borderline incoherent and definitely substance enhanced diatribe that tried to explain how excited I was for the first episodes of Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury. It feels right, though, both the name and the bigger through line.

There’s a deep, earnest seriousness to most mecha shows (especially within the “real robot” subgenre) that implores the audience to grapple with intricate ideas and themes drawn from philosophers like Aristotle, Nietzche, and Rousseau, oftentimes complete with allegorical mouthpieces for competing ideologies. There’s also the slightly goofy and always physics-defying “rule of cool” concepts of the robots themselves–I mean, who doesn’t want to see a boom cannon with angel wings, or a crucified rage monster, or transforming karaoke jets?–that can easily be laughed off as a kid’s cartoon. Any foolhardy (read: hubristic and dumbasstic) attempt to try to find unifying threads within such a wide and varied genre has to address both of those tendencies. Here, friend, you will find one such foolhardy attempt.

Mecha anime, more than any other subgenre, has a fundamental tension summarized by two infuriatingly simultaneous, contradictory truths:

Anthropomorphized mechs bring out the best in humanity, allowing us to overcome our flaws and leap forward into a better future.

Anthropomorphized mechs feed into the worst traits of humanity, allowing us to destroy ourselves in new and technologically advanced ways.

Those two overwhelmingly common truths, when taken together, can be summarized in fancy philosophy jargon with just two words: dialectical humanism.

Dialectics is a concept pioneered (in the West, at least) by Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel during the late 18th and early 19th century. There’s literally a whole field of study called “Hegelian Dialectics” that we’ll touch on from time to time, but the main thing to know is that two mutually exclusive and contradictory ideas are often both true at the same time.

Humanism has a long, fraught history, but the most common Western interpretations stem from Enlightenment-era ideals. Essentially, humanism boils down to the belief that humankind can progress beyond its animalistic nature through a combination of empathy and rational thinking. Again, we’ll be touching on a whole slew of humanist thinkers throughout this series.

So that’s The Dialectical Humanism of Big-Ass Robots. I feel like mecha shows–from Astro Boy to Zeta Gundam, and almost everything in between–play with this dialectic, where the mechs themselves represent humanity’s ultimate destruction and ultimate salvation simultaneously. Sometimes we struggle to survive, sometimes we overcome and thrive, and sometimes we find ourselves transformed into an ocean of pink goo.

In this series, we’ll look at:

Magical Newtype Bullshit and radical empathy

Depression, memory, and trauma, and why Shinji can’t just get in the fucking robot

The power of music (and love, hope, and propaganda) in a transforming space city

And much, much more.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to go watch a Tanuki pilot a Gundam.

Guys, GUYS.

TEXAS RED WAS INNOCENT

Okay. Okay, follow me.

Was he a killer? Yes. But he clearly wasn't a danger to the people around him. He was living in Agua Fria safely and without the locals (arguably) kicking up much of a fuss. So clearly he was killing men of a Certain Sort. I've seen analysis here that insists he had a thing for killing lawmen who targeted him, but that never hit me right for one reason - they sent the Ranger with the big iron on his hip. A single law man. No backup, no one to make sure that Red wouldn't run. Granted, the old "one riot one ranger" brag might apply, but I think it was something else.

Because if he was killing that many law dogs, even if it was justified, they would claim it wasn't.

So why one ranger?

"He might have kept on living, but-" hold it right there and reread the lyric.

If he'd gone before a judge, Texas Red would have walked. Or very well could have.

The Ranger was packing a customized gun designed for gunfights (the titular "big iron"). They didn't want him coming back. They very specifically wanted him dead in a deniable way.

Texas Red had killed someone with connections. It was the Good Old Boy System that got him.
