The 00 sauce is always there. The biggest BL there is probably the teammate Tieria/Lockon combo but there's other pairings with Setsuna as well. Kinta is also the kind of nerd who might have feelings about Kou and Gato and also Kelly Layzner

I bought a really nice sweater a few weeks ago, but it's a really fuckin heavy sweater and it's going to be months until it's cold enough to actually wear it

"clobbering" is such an on point translation choice

Im mostly just arguing the concept of relying on subjective measures of happiness, at least across time or devoid of context

If you ask me to say how happy I feel I am not accurately conceptualizing perfect bliss on one end and perfect misery on the other and objectively coming to an answer. I'm coming up with something based on my own experiences and those of the people I know

I mean, the victims of pederasty aren't so happy, and I do not think people are actually ever truly happy to have their children blow themselves up; that kind of world doesn't emerge from nowhere.

I just mean that there is no objective line for how happy I am. If you ask me out of 10 it's arbitrary

People's perception of their own happiness and wellbeing is entirely relative and subjective. People may not rate themselves as feeling as happy as people who lived when, say, infant mortality is much higher, but are you going to say people were happier when half their children died

For the overwhelming majority of human history, the vast, vast majority of people have been poor.

And I really don't put a whole lot of stock in self reported happiness in this kind of thing

In the case of women in the 19th century Victorian house because keeping up a house was so expensive tons of them would work as maids which was an absolutely miserable, soul crushing and extremely demanding job with very little life outside

Deep Sense of Creeping DreⱯd 2024 @devedy.bsky.social · 6h

I mean plenty of women worked for wages in some way, or did farmwork, or similar. Women who *just* do homemaking and childcare aren't that common until a little later, and lots of those women are nursing and pregnant a lot more often than now

A modern woman who yields her child to daycare to work full time and then does a share of childcare/domestic work at home later is still probably working less than someone who, say, had to scrub soot from gas lamps out of furniture all the time

The confining of women to the domestic sphere is one of the great evils of the world until relatively recently in general but in this case I mean that the amount of work done in cleaning, cooking, maintenance, textile repair etc. was enormous

1

Deep Sense of Creeping DreⱯd 2024 @devedy.bsky.social · 9h

I mean orthogonal to the original question the existence of the *choice* is a massive gain but notwithstanding that the amount of unpaid labor being done by women without servants in the 19th century and especially early is enormous compared to like, a regular 21st century working week

Deep Sense of Creeping DreⱯd 2024 @devedy.bsky.social · 9h

Sure, by any reasonable assessment the necessities of life (food, shelter, clothing, and the domestic labor to prepare and maintain it) require substantially less labor than they did in the Victorian age, and even with our increased consumption we still work much less in aggregate
