How an obscure term used in anthropology leaped from the pages of academia into the Chinese meme world and then became part of Chinese government policymaking. n.pr/4iYqnn5
Feeling burned out? There's a word for that in Mandarin Chinese

I have long had an aversion to Penn and Teller because of one particular stunt they pulled. Kind of hated that since they seem more or less decent otherwise.
Glad to see they can learn and grow just like the rest of us.
Good on Penn Jillette. Having to come to terms with your entire political identity and philosophy being wrong is not easy and most people could never do it.

There is an entire MA thesis in here for an intrepid scholar
I don’t see Ivy as a villain. Her goals are laudable. It’s just that ordinary, law-abiding methods are a failure against players that are in a caste above all laws, she’s playing by the same non-rules as those she opposes. If she’s a life-protecting villain, than what are her anti-life enemies?

NEW VIDEO! To me, the best satire helps us envision a better world. Grand Theft Auto, as made by a Rockstar that treats its workers as terribly as it has done, says this is as good as it gets. Here's a video discussing why I've personally had enough of that.

Enjoy! Shares appreciated!

Oh my god what do you mean Soken didn’t even ask for it, Tom basically just went “we heard they were huge fans so we wrote them a song to use however they want”

I understand why people stay on services that suck but not Spotify. There’s so many other platforms that are 1-to-1 the same but with less garbage if not objectively better.

there are hardly any writing tips I think are worth anything at all -- any path is good, I don't trust any maxims about which one works better or is more valid or results in deeper/harder/better work -- but this is a sound principle.
WRITING TIP, something simple but it catches many of us out: if you have a great/fun idea for your story, *use it now*.

Don’t save your ideas for some nebulous other story you might write tomorrow. I promise you’ll have more.

Break your story’s status quo. Go a step further. Use the big idea.
