Dire Dogs den

Tribal gathering for Baldr's Light celebration. Every tribe member brings with him a story of struggle and inner shame. We share, discuss, fix together. And violence. Lot of violence.

Honor is an aggressive mindset, because without balls and without the need to prove your physical and mental skills in a moment of pressure, you can't prove your honor, you can't even prove you're a man. Plain and simple. Honor is taking what you need with respect, but still, it is to take, and not always like a gentleman despite the effort. Make honor dangerous again.

Do not mistake Honor for Moralism. Honor is a masculine driven sense of respect that involves renown, fame and a militant discipline, in order to recognize the best thing to do and the best behaviour in order to uphold your dignity and consequently, your people dignity. Which means, honor may looks immoral to the weak and the one who screams for a world made up by the equation "vice equals freedom", where you can behave as you wish in order to fulfill your urges. Let's be honest here : honor may look immoral even for the common man. Moralism is not negative per se, but it doesn't involve honor. Moralism is a sense of justice, and it may be even wrong. It is a shade of gray and a matter of perspective leaded by your social and political or religious view. Honor is not a shade of gray. Honor is living imagining your best ancestors constantly looking on you. It is to respect who defeated you but it is also accepting he's taking something for you, something he conquered and he should preserve.

Stay focused in order to live the moment. The Moment is everything during the fray. This is why you need strong companions and iron discipline. It is good to have hobbies, enjoy life and take it easy, but without the ability to say "fuck it" to everything that is not discipline, it's worthless, I would say even weak, to revel in comfort. So fuck it, and live the moment, where the moment can fuck up your eyes, bones and blood.

Kristian was 160 kg when he started to hang out with us. Just out of depression, alone, with serious drug problems. He wasn't able to walk in the woods without vomiting every 30 minutes. Today Kristian is 100kg. He trains boxing and kick boxing. He is able to provide help, to hike for hours, he eats clean, he doesn't use drugs. He is 49 years old. Your will is your weapon of mass destruction.

No luck this time at the Mongolian wrestling competition in Friuli. Only open Wright and my first opponent is an Hungarian monster around 40 or 50 kg more then me. I do what I can, but with my lack of skills and his superior strength and weight he throws me across the fighting camp while I was trying to put a guillotine. My pride is wounded for a couple of hours but after a pizza and a drink I'm ready for 2 swordfight competition with medium/heavy contact rules. I get silver on both of them, winning a total of 10 fights and losing two. I'm overall satisfied but I need far more training in my grappling skills. Be aware of victory and be humble in it. I was so satisfied about my pankration matches in March that I didn't give enough importance to this historical sport event. Lesson learnt.

Many people who hang out with us or follow our principles often talk a lot about "the law of nature" and other similar things in order to appear merciless and though. We are indeed part of nature, and following our nature, some of our basic human instincts, implies wearing masks. Very bad new for you: wearing masks and behave in different ways in different environment doesn't sound really courageous or "eco" in a strict sense. Listen up: wearing masks is being yourself, but louder. Is it positive ? No. Could be useful ? Yes, sadly. But remember. Every time you train to not run a way from a punch, or you stand your ground wearing only a single mask in this world of lies, your fighting against your basic nature. Which is just a proof, that there is a higher truth that stands beyond this simple world.

Dire Dogs are creating something. We are working on a big project that will include anyone willing to protect a land. A territory. A holy place. Something that reflects your will, body and actions. No matter how big or small. Expect news soon. And a big event.

What is more pathetic then a strong man constantly complaining about how the world is going ? A weak man constantly complaining about how the world is going. Be sure you are worth the words you like to speak. Have a nice Sunday you all
