wish more people bought into the idea that the number of books you read isn’t what is impressive, but that the ability to comprehend and explain complex topics+themes presented in the books you’ve read that’s impressive

A classic

Already lots of qrts about how the ancients had spreadsheets too but it really needs to be emphasized that their sheets look *exactly* like ours

It's really the little things that humanise the citizens instead of treating them like a bulk statistic

Sorry but if dan heng's height growing a few inches is unironically something that made you stop liking him then you probably didn't like him anyways

i don’t think you need to be concerned with the ethics of something that is literally, physically not possible outside of fanfiction and The Sims

This is an effective and beautiful way to reinforce one of the major themes of the film, that no life is too small to be considered to be worth saving. In this three second shot we can see that this little turtle is the most important thing in the world to this lady.

It’s so weird how people don’t feel entitled to being lawyers/solicitors, doctors, engineers, etc, but now with gen AI, so many feel entitled to ‘being a writer’ or ‘artist’. They get mad when you point out they did none of the work and aren’t what they claim. It’s bizarre.

One of the biggest lies we were sold about the internet is that it would forever preserve the world’s knowledge. The digital world is ephemeral. Websites and archives can vanish in an instant. Invest in print media and DVDs. Build a home library. Know the joys of tangible living.

To disregard the value of aromantic and asexual intimacy, and the nuances that come with it, is to be ignorant to varied social dynamics and perpetuate a hierarchical view of relationships established by harmful frameworks that aren't inclusive to everybody's experiences

yanqing talks so formally

Joke: Character awkwardly copes with rejection by initiating an orgy. Gets dragged off into a room kicking and screaming by excited strangers as crush watches. People comedically 'punished' through sex they don't want is one of the most common rape jokes in TV/film. C'mon man.

If only there were people who had warned them 🙃

THIS IS THE BEST DUO EVER AND I WILL STAND BEHIND IT. Corporate rivals who are pressured perfectionists heavily influenced by their masters’ fates, prime victims of Jing Yuan’s rage bait. they hate each other because they are each other.
