Rating System Clarified

Sorry for the brief break there. Just a quick update since many don't understand the normal grading system applied to media in general. I'll just list how I feel about each number in general.

10: Masterpiece, nothing more I could ask for.
9: Amazing, near perfect and immensely satisfying.
8: Great, an enjoyable experience that fulfilled wishes though could polish up a little.
7: Very good, not as great as expected though still fulfilling and good enough.
6: Good, could've been better but did fulfill basic needs to be considered an art form.
5: Okay, has promise but doesn't do anything.
4: Meh, didn't really do anything and waste of time.
3: Bad, doesn't seem to have any sense of finesse or touch whatsoever and made me want to turn away.
2: Horrible, makes me nauseous seeing something so bad that was actually created by people.
1: Atrocious, bottom of the barrel type of awfulness that makes me want to gouge my eyes.

Essentially, I kind of have a +/- rating. 10 would be +++ or "gotta see it," 9-8 would be ++ or "love it," 7-6 would be + or "like it." 5-4 is - which is "could've done without it," 3 is -- which is "don't like it" 2-1 is --- which is "absolutely hate it." Hopefully that clarifies some of my ratings.

Why is Art Important?

Image
3 minutes and 46 seconds into the "Bad and Boujee" music video, there exist 4 golden seconds that stand as a pillar of humanity. Audiophiles and casual listeners that had been fidgeting in their seats now sit erect with eyes closed and a hand pressed softly on their right headphone. 4 seconds. Someone in the world listens raptly to these words for the first time and whether they are a child in Somalia or a businessman in Switzerland, they can't help but feel that all artistic endeavours in history have been for naught as nothing has had the penetrating impact that these 4 seconds have. 4 seconds. At every church there's always at least one boy who scrambles furiously up the steps, ready to beg the pastor that the masterful artist Lil Uzi Vert be canonized as a saint with his every word added to the new Uziment section of the Bible. 4 seconds.

Time Doesn't Exist

Image
I'd like to make one thing clear first of all. I consider that this world has two forms of time. The first form of time is what us humans use most of the time. This time involves years, eons, hours, months, and all the quantifiable forms of time. The second form of time is abstract. This is the fourth dimension that perceives different events happening at a different time. Without further ado, let's see why I believe the quantifiable time does not exist. Time is usually portrayed as an abstract idea. You can't really describe how time functions. Most people assume that time is linear progression. With this view you see timelines that details each event. If that were so, then how come time is so variable? How come time can be so intangible in our world? The time we use is time we apply to our surroundings is best seen by years, minutes, hours, and months. But these numbers can't be used to define time in our universe. In fact, a year is actually 365 days, 5

Zimmerman Trial Outcome Opinions

In case you've been sleeping under a rock, the Zimmerman Trial was about George Zimmerman killing Trayvon Martin. Supposedly, Zimmerman killed Martin because Martin was threatening him. There isn't definitive evidence supporting Zimmerman's claims that Martin slammed his head against the ground. The whole purpose of this case was to figure out if it was lawful to kill someone out of the self-defense Zimmerman discoursed about. When this news leaked out, people were initially outraged. Cries of Zimmerman being racist was heard through the entire nation. The family was traumatized; they believed that Martin wasn't a threat that Zimmerman said he was. Death threats were slammed in Zimmerman's inbox as the days passed on. Many people said that Zimmerman was lying about the entire situation in order to defend himself. These claims were made because of a call Zimmerman made to the police concerning Martin. Zimmerman mentioned something about, "F---ing punks"
