Kraft durch Freude (German for Strength through Joy, abbreviated KdF) was a large state-controlled leisure organization in Nazi Germany.[1] It was a part of the German Labour Front (Deutsche Arbeitsfront, DAF), the national German labour organization at that time. Set up as a tool to promote the advantages of National Socialism to the people, it soon became the world's largest tourism operator of the 1930s.[2]
KdF was supposed to bridge the class divide by making middle-class leisure activities available to the masses. This was underscored by having cruises with passengers of mixed classes and having them, regardless of social status, draw lots for allocation of cabins.[3]
Another less ideological goal was to boost the German economy by stimulating the tourist industry out of its slump from the 1920s. It was quite successful up until the outbreak of World War II. By 1934, over two million Germans had participated on a KdF trip; by 1939 the reported numbers lay around 25 million people. The organization essentially collapsed in 1939, and several projects, such as the massive Prora holiday resort, were never completed.
A series of multilingual and colorful brochures, titled "Deutschland", advertised Germany as a peaceful, idyllic, and progressive country, on one occasion even portraying the ministry's boss, Joseph Goebbels, grinning and hamming in an unlikely photo series of the Cologne carnival.
Then you need to get better, but also don't fret, because no artist ever gets to have complete control over their drawings. They fuck up, and they're never satisfied with what they do.
Zun was never the low standard. He drew what he wanted and he improved, likely doing and redoing things over and over and over.
You are not the low bar. You are where you need to be right now, and you'll end up where you need to go.
Art is something dissimilar to craft, in that technical imperfection results in a bad product. Most of the time, imperfection is part and parcel of the work.
But at the same time, art works very similar to craft, in the only way to get "good" is to keep doing it. Honing your skills with hours and hours of work.
tl;dr: Imperfect doesn't always mean bad. Perfection makes the gods draw closer, for the gods love breaking perfect things.
I've heard that in math the best goals to set are the ones that are just barely out of reach of your mathematical ability; I could easily see this generalizing.
My file in Oracle of Ages got fucked because I had the gall to accidentally do a particularly confusing segment out of a sequence I didn't know was necessary. So I had to start over.

|Ring Secret| ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Now go to the Red Snake in Vasu Jewelers and select "Say." Input this code to get all 64 Rings. You must talk to Vasu to get a Ring Box in order to get the Red Snake to ask "Say."
NOTE! This Ring Secret will ONLY work if you've used the above Holodrum Secret to start a new Linked Game!!! If you didn't use our Holodrum Secret to start the game, you will not be able to use these Secrets!
I think I fucked up because I did the dance thing and didn’t get the key, or something, and then I did the bomb game and got the old key and used it on the present day cave and it worked but like
APPARENTLY that was a game breaking bug. I wasn’t going out of my way or anything, that was just an order I stumbled on.
More people have said that and been killed than there are thorium decay products.
hmm, apparently you have to give the dancing goron guy a letter before he lets you compete for the key. Maybe you didn't do that? I remember this part of the game, kind of. It was confusing.
Nintendo didn't have as much involvement with the Oracles as they did with a lot of the others and that has become kind of apparent in my playthrough. The design doesn't seem as purposeful as the design in most Zelda games does.
Oh, I don't dislike them at all. In fact, they're really good. But a lot of... weird design elements pop up. Like, for example, there are a lot of dead ends in the overworld, and a lot of traditional Zelda cues (eg three bushes near a wall means it can be bombed) are misused.
just can we sit back and think for a moment about the idea of a nazi cruise ship
incredible contrast
one of the many cool things i learnt in a level history
also: that everyone was p much constantly at it in the american civil rights movement, to the degree that when the fbi used to bug martin luther king's hotel rooms in the hope of getting information they just recorded the sound of him having a threesome instead
also the source of my fave MLK quote: 'fucking is a form of anxiety release.' very true, martin!!
people who have played Bravely Default: I bought all these Time Magic things and can't use them, when do I get the job that lets me use them?
Once you've restored the wind crystal, watch the cutscene in Ancheim, wait till night, and then go into the clock tower. You might need to beat Profiteur first, I can't quite remember.
I'm feeling kind of blah at the moment, so I'm searching for weird stock photos. Nothing says "pic unrelated" and/or "excuse me wtf r u doin" quite like them.
