In The Lord of the Rings, J. R. R. Tolkien drew upon the language and themes found in the old Medieval hero-tales in order to construct a kind of new mythology. The brilliance of Tolkien was in his departure from the Pagan modes of conduct and morality of these old tales, his creation of a syncretistic fusion between Christian thought and Pagan language, and so his work achieved a deep resonance with all who read it.
We find this passage at the conclusion of The Return of the King:
The Dark Lord was suddenly aware of him, and his Eye piercing all shadows looked across the plain to the door that he had made; and the magnitude of his own folly was revealed to him in a blinding flash, and all the devices of his enemies were at last laid bare.
Adversaries in the stories that Tolkien drew upon, Grendel, Mordred and the like, often served as obstacles that the heroes could overcome through feats of strength and cunning. Sauron is not like them. When Sauron is defeated, it is not because Aragorn is stronger than him or because Gandalf is wiser. They are not. It is only that his hubris was so great that it never occured to him that anyone would want to destroy the thing he held so dear. It is not until the final few seconds of his existence that he realises his mistake.
I think that I Am Jazz displays a similar moment. In the pictured scene, Jazz's journey to what he believes is womanhood is almost complete. He is resting after surgery, a triumphant smile on his face, his rotting groin held together by a labyrinthine patchwork of stitches and grafts. But as Eru Ilúvatar nudged Gollum over the Crack of Doom into the fires beneath, so too does the God of our world intervene in this.
Pop!
In a second, the follies of men are undone and Jazz's crotch explodes, a meaty froth of blood and pus pouring out of the hole where his penis used to be.
With this and the whole Assange situation it seems like people not cleaning up after themsleves has had a major impact on world politics. Was Pxterson right all along??? 🤔🤔🤔
Most western countries don't recycle. Not recycle in the way people imagine. The nice, efficient, and clean recycling plants? Yeah...that is bullshit.
In reality, the stuff is shipped in containers to the third world to be processed by hand. Legally, its required that the actual contents are agreed upon. What was happening was toxic waste was getting deported with little or no hope for processing.
There needs to be recyclables or else...why the hell would anyone take the shit. Well...Canada, like a lot of Western countries, took a blind eye to trash companies illegally sending stuff over.
Places like the Philippines tended to not raise too much of an issue either, when the price of metals was up. They made enough money where they kind of put up with it. Right now, there is no money in recycling. So most countries are getting sick of all the shit getting sent because even with metals in it, there is no profit.
Ever heard of the ship breaking yards of India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh? Basically one day, a ship ran aground in India and it started the ship breaking industry there.
No environmental protections, no worker safety. These countries need steel. So ships that were once a nightmare cost to get rid of because of pollution control...these ships became worth something.
Its completely illegal but its big business. Hell France tried to dump the Clemenceau onto India. It took an order from the Supreme Court of India to force France to take it back. Military ships are a NIGHTMARE to process safely. And we aren't talking about a small ship they were trying to sneak it...it was a goddamn aircraft carrier.
I had to go to one of the yards in Bangladesh. I was commissioning a steel mill inland and we needed to see the quality of the metals being processed. This is basically the level of industry we were trying to replace. Holy shit was that depressing. But a place like Bangladesh, they have no natural deposits of iron.
Literally every single one of their skyscrapers are built with reclaimed ship steel, at a tremendous cost in human lives.
Though if he actually wanted to, they could probably ship it there and offload it with some other goods. Nobody's patrolling every square inch of Canada for littering.
look i dont really disagree with the underlying sentiment there, but in the grand scheme of things that's a pretty nice problem for a country to have. like, venezuela wishes.
Canada has two national sports, hockey and lacrosse. Both regularly allow and expect their players to get into punching matches midgame. The referees give them space to spaz out because otherwise the game is too boring.
The national sport of the Philippines is stabbing each other.
Then why are they all nannys and nurses?I honestly dont think there is a single millionaire filipino in all of canada. At least in america the mexicans have normal jobs too but the canadian-mexicans (aka filipinos) all come here to work as nannys for 5 years and then become nurses. If that doesnt work out they work at tim hortons

In that moment of blind panic and terror, Jazz is Sauron. All triumph and victory is gone. Only the Void remains.
