“Kindness is the golden chain by which society is bound together.”
-Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

Yet human intelligence has another force, too: the sense of urgency that gives human smarts their drive. Perhaps our intelligence is not just ended by our mortality; to a great degree, it is our mortality.

Ain Dhamsa -
Ain Dhamsa is kind of bare knuckle boxing found in Temujinn, which allows hammer fists, elbows, knees, and standing throws and take downs.

It is also the oldest organized sport in Temujinn.

Other martial sports are popular, such as various forms of folk wrestling, standard Western Boxing(bareknuckle), greco-roman wrestling, Judo is extremely popular. But Ain Dhamsa is the singular representation of sport in Temujinn.

We play something called Blok Ball, which is best described as a combination between soccer, football, and capture the flag. It is a full contact team sport where the goal is to get the round leather ball to the opposite side of the field by any means necessary. Grappling, tackling, knockouts, and nonlethal weapons are permitted. There is also Aryite Wrestling, which is very similar to Sumo, in which the goal is to knock your opponent outside the ring.

Football (soccer).
I am a 30 year old gay male from Catalonia. I am a realist but philosophically that makes me a pessimist.
I am a Catalan nationalist, pro-environment, pro-equality. I believe in reason, not dogma. Earth is a beautiful place and I believe it should be kept that way. Was pro-EU until it decided that the democracy it supposedly champions does not apply to Catalonia.
