Rippaverse, The Next Great Comic Book Universe

April 29, 2024

Rippaverse comics are the next big thing. With Marvel & DC zooming towards irrelevancy, a perfect opening has been created for new comics to dominate the space. For the past several years, fans have been fed up with the legacy comic book companies feeding them propagandist nonsense. Most fans have taken to social media to voice their frustrations and/or just stopped buying comics altogether. However, until now, there was no real alternative to them. About a year and a half ago, a comic book connoisseur named Eric July decided to change that reality. Little did he know, he was about to turn the comic book market on its head. Fear not comic fans, Rippaverse is here to save the day.

How DC & Marvel Gave Way To The Rippaverse

Rippaverse comics released their first graphic novel "ISOM #1" last summer to reach 100,000 dollars in sales. In just 24 hours, they 10x their goal and that release made over 1 million dollars. Fast forward to today, ISOM #1 has made over 3.5 million, shattering all projections Eric had. This sent shockwaves through the comic book world as no other comic book (Marvel and DC) in recent years has even come close to generating that kind of revenue. As a matter of fact, things have gotten so bad for Marvel and DC comics that their comic book distributors have stopped releasing their sales reports. Feeling threatened by the success of Eric's company, the other companies have begun attempting to smear his success.

Full disclosure, I haven't actually gotten the chance to give ISOM #1 a read myself because I don't have the disposable income to purchase one of the copies. "But they're only 35 bucks a copy", yeah, I know, I can't afford it. Your boy is out here struggling. However, from what I can infer from listening to Eric speak on his YouTube channel and his other interactions on various social media platforms, he knows what the market wants and isn't afraid to deliver it. I legitimately can't wait to read a comic whose only purpose is to entertain. So much of the last few years has been a cycle of shitty comic book leading to shitty live action adaptations which aren't generating the revenue to justify sequential projects, yet they're still releasing them.

Thank You Capitalism

Lastly, something we don't say enough as a society; thank you capitalism. Without you, we would be forced to consume poorly written, ideologically driven, misandrist propaganda. However, because of you, we have the opportunity to explore an entirely new universe of creative fiction that may one day be translated to live action. The market determines the game, not the companies. I for one, can't wait to see what the Rippaverse has in store for us in the future. Peace!

Rapists & False Accusers Should Get The Death Penalty

April 22, 2024

Rapists and false accusers are topics that have been making headlines recently. The problem is, the penalties for these offenses are not equal, and that's a serious issue. Let's break it down. Truth be told, rapists are the scum of the earth. Personally, I don't think they should be allowed to go to prison and continue to live. Conversely, I also think that those people who falsely accuse people of rape should also meet the same fate.

First of all, sexual assault is a heinous crime that should be punished severely. There's no question about it. The problem is, the penalties for sexual assault vary wildly depending on the jurisdiction and the severity of the offense. In some cases, perpetrators get off with a slap on the wrist, while in other cases, they are punished severely. That's not justice, that's a role of the dice.

Rapists vs False Accusations

Now, let's talk about false accusations. This is a tricky one because false accusations of sexual assault do happen. It's not something we like to talk about, but it's true. The problem is, the penalties for false accusations are often much less severe than the penalties for sexual assault. That's a big problem. If someone makes a false accusation, they are potentially ruining someone's life, and that should not be taken lightly.

The problem is, the justice system is set up in a way that makes it very difficult to punish false accusers. Although it's just as difficult to prove that the accused has actually committed a crime, it's also not easy to prove that someone made a false accusation, however, many false accusers get off scot-free while the accused get labeled as rapists. That's not justice, that's a failure of the justice system.

So, what's the solution? Well, it's not an easy one. We need to find a way to make the penalties for sexual assault and false accusations more equal. We need to make it clear that making a false accusation is just as bad as committing sexual assault. That's not an easy thing to do, but it's something we need to work towards.

In conclusion, the discrepancies between the penalties for sexual assault and false accusations are a serious issue that needs to be addressed. We need to find a way to make the penalties more equal and make it clear that false accusations are not something that should be taken lightly. It's not an easy problem to solve, but it's something we need to work towards if we want to create a more just and fair society.

Capitalism: Good & Evil

April 15, 2024

Capitalism, socialism, communism, and fascism are the four economic systems that dominate civilization. Throughout history, humanity has witnessed the rise and fall of empires utilizing each economic system with the exception of capitalism. From Mussolini's rein in Fascist Italy to Mao's rein in communist China, and of course the Socialists in the Soviet Union. One after another these empires rose to power and one after the other, they fell miserably. With recent events, one has to wonder if we're officially witnessing the long awaited long-awaitedfall of capitalism. With that presupposition, it's only fair that we document the triumphs and failures of this system.

The United States has been heralded as the greatest empire ever created, with capitalism at its center. At its core, capitalism is centered around competition and the freedom of the market to innovate and create. However, like all the previous economic systems, it has one fatal flaw: people. Systems themselves are not inherently corrupt, it's the human beings that operate within those systems that allow them to devolve. In fact, people are simultaneously the most significant assets and flaws of the capitalist system. To think, capitalism gave us virtually every technological marvel we hold dear today. The Internet, computers, phones, cars, airplanes, and trains, are just a few of the unpredictable creations the capitalist system has brought us.

On the other hand, capitalism to this day has been the root cause of pain that's unimaginable to most people. For example, most people have no idea that all their technology is powered by cobalt-lined batteries gathered from the slavery of Congolese people. Not to mention the tumultuous history that this country has had with slavery and while slavery is not just unique to capitalism, it has supported the system in becoming what we know it as today. Peace!

Kevin Durant & The Suns Better Win

April 8, 2024

Kevin Durant is one of the 15 greatest basketball players to ever live, and rightfully so. KD has blessed us with nothing but on-court greatness for over a decade. Kevin Durant's a 2-time champion (2-time finals MVP), league MVP and multiple-time All-Star and the resume goes on. However, I and many others have been skeptical of KD's road to success; joining the Golden State Warriors to win titles.

There are moments in sports when fate seems to align perfectly, and this NBA season has provided us with just such a scenario. Kevin Durant, one of the greatest basketball talents of our time, finds himself at a crossroads, while the Phoenix Suns stand on the precipice of glory. In this post, I will channel the spirit of Stephen A. Smith to explain why the time is now for Durant and the Suns to seize the ultimate prize.

The Legacy of Kevin Durant

Let's not mince words here; Kevin Durant's legacy is at stake. With his exceptional scoring ability, uncanny shooting range, and unparalleled versatility, Durant has etched his name among the NBA elite. However, to solidify his status as one of the all-time greats, Durant needs that elusive championship ring. Without it, his resume would always bear an asterisk, questioning whether he could lead a team to ultimate success. A championship victory would silence the doubters and cement Durant's place in basketball immortality.

Durant's journey has been marred by significant setbacks, most notably his Achilles tendon injury in 2019. Since then, he has battled through rehabilitation and relentless criticism, demonstrating his unwavering determination. Now, on the brink of greatness, Durant has a chance to transform his narrative of resilience and perseverance into a tale of redemption. Witnessing his triumphant return to the top of the basketball world would be a fitting reward for his indomitable spirit.

For the Phoenix Suns, this championship quest is about revitalizing a franchise steeped in history but starved for success. From the days of Charles Barkley to the iconic Steve Nash-led squads, the Suns have come agonizingly close to glory but always fell short. Now, with a talented core led by Chris Paul and Devin Booker, the Suns have the chance to etch their names in the annals of basketball lore. A championship would bring euphoria to a loyal fan base and rekindle the team's dormant legacy.

Conclusion

In an era increasingly dominated by super-teams and star-centric basketball, the Suns stand out as a testament to the power of cohesive team play. Led by the cerebral leadership of Chris Paul and the scoring prowess of Devin Booker, the Suns embody the essence of team basketball. They have displayed exceptional chemistry, unselfishness, and a commitment to defense throughout the season. A championship for the Suns would serve as a rallying cry for the beauty of team-oriented basketball, a triumph for all those who believe in the strength of collective effort.

Kevin Durant, a basketball virtuoso in search of vindication, stands ready to etch his name in the pantheon of legends. Simultaneously, the Phoenix Suns, a franchise yearning for a triumphant return to prominence, possess the tools to redefine their narrative. The urgency for Durant and the Suns to win a championship is palpable, driven by the pursuit of greatness, redemption, legacy, and the revitalization of a franchise. Let's buckle up and revel in the drama as these two forces collide on the grandest stage of them all.

The Lucky Sperm Club

April 1, 2024

The lucky sperm club is a club that many of us are not apart of despite being very familiar with. Typically, they are entitled beneficiaries of the wealth and work derived from the competence of prior generations. It's widespread knowledge that most of the wealth in this world is acquired as a consequence of inheritance. For most people in this world, the "game" is over before they/we ever even get to play. Directly speaking, the lucky sperm club refers to people born to wealth. That said, I fully respect wealth that's earned through hard work and perseverance. However, wealth that's just passed down through generations is bad for society in various ways.

Lucky Sperm Club Entitlement

For one, it creates entitled, out of touch people. Secondly, it concentrates most of the wealth in the hands of the few which perpetuates inequality, and lastly, it disincentivizes people on both ends of the spectrum to self-improve. Firstly, lets talk about how it creates entitled, out of touch people. When you grow up with everything handed to you on a silver platter, it's easy to take things for granted. You become out of touch with real life because you don't know what it's like to struggle or to go without. You don't understand the value of hard work or the importance of empathy. Therefore, consequently, your worldview is warped into believing you're entitled to certain outcomes, which aren't the case.

Secondly, the presence of the lucky sperm club tends to perpetuate inequality because the wealth and capital that used to be in circulation, stops being in circulation because they spend just enough to sustain themselves, which results in less people being able to build wealth for themselves and their families. That said, its important to point out that none of us chooses our parents. So, its just inherent that members of the lucky sperm club are just that, lucky.

Lastly, the lucky sperm club disincentivizes human growth on both ends of the spectrum. This happens because, the lucky sperm kids have everything handed to them so they never have to develop the skills necessary to work, take Paris Hilton for example, I don't even know why she's famous other than the fact that she's heir to the Hilton hospitality business. Adversely, the people at the bottom view their efforts as futile because they won't ever achieve that level of wealth.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the lucky sperm club are a scourge to society. They're incredibly self-centered people whose worldview is predicated on whatever bubble of people they're surrounded by. Often times, they lack self awareness skills, they never develop into self sustaining adults, and they extract wealth from the actual hardworking people. Peace!
