It’s basically impossible to avoid this without knowing everything there is to know about everything on Earth, which is why I’ve decided to know everything there is about everything on Earth
It’s one of the most challenging parts of writing fiction: your characters can know things you don’t know, but they can’t know all the things you don’t know you don’t know.
I love Manhunter/Red Dragon but I’ll never get over the part where they show the hanzi for “middle” and everybody is like “oh yeah that means red dragon actually”

My bad, apparently Chinese is in fact the most used language in the world with about 1.5 billion able to read it worldwide. This character is also very common in Japanese btw
You end up accidentally creating a world where your average American cop knows how to play mahjong but can’t recognize one of the most commonly used characters in one of the most spoken languages in the world

When you’re pregnant, parenting is like a sack race. Parenting a baby is an egg-and-spoon race. Once they reach the age of reason it becomes a three-legged race. And parenting a young adult is, one hopes, a relay race.

Ordered a whole bunch of comics and zines from @thorazos.bsky.social and they do NOT disappoint. The Andor zine (about Syril and Dedra’s relationship) is excellent. Looking forward to reading the rest.
