american-dancer art becoming defend far form land people similar
Perhaps... I mean there are people who defend that it as an art. I don't. I like it but it's not an art form as far as I'm concerned, and yet it's a similar thing, once you can't land those jumps, you're disqualified - that precludes it from ever becoming a serious art form.

We didn't know we had such a good example so close by.

home leave
The goal of Sunday is to leave my home as little as possible.
cloud crushes event extremely far fell high massive scale takes talking
Here we're talking about some galactic scale event that takes an already very massive cloud and just crushes it into extremely high densities forming, in one fell swoop, hundreds and hundreds of stars, most of which are far more massive than our own sun.
cosmic nobody seen
Nobody has ever seen anything like that before in the cosmic realm.

So I'll do what I can to let people see that now.
