forget stuff like Good Flag Bad Flag and all that discourse, the world's best flags are those banners carried by Chinese lineage/support associations that have fringed edges and writing

does anyone still teach how to calculate directional taboos through Onmyōdō like in the Heian period. I want the experience of not being able to travel in a certain compass direction due to a divine presence

Twinned with "was it written on drugs" for how destructive and limited a way of interpreting weird stuff it is

But it's also a problem that it implies the sex aspect is inherently a bad motivation, or that such an aspect can't be scrambled together with other motivations to make something really powerful

idk it seems almost like...screening the writer for aberrant sexual interests has become a standard part of how people interpret fiction that is even a little edgy and it's not good? reading someone's work and being like "is this a sex thing? is it? is it???" before you feel you can speak on it is pretty limiting, and if you're actually taking the writer to task on social media about this it's just creepy or straight-up sexual harassment. let the writing speak for itself girl, you're not this person's therapist

I get the impression that Feng Shui isn't really about making predictions about reality, but is rather about value judgments and aesthetics. It's similar to how people see the Golden Ratio or classical architecture. If someone says, "living in a building based on classical proportion is more harmonious" we can recognize that there's a philosophical element which is not literally making a claim we can test, and that's fine.

I read somewhere that in Korea, there's a place where they tried to balance out a mountain range by building structures, and I think there's something going on there that is beyond a desire for material results and gain. It's a value judgment about how the world should be.

Of course, the reason Feng Shui is targeted is the result of cultural prejudice, but I think it has just become one of those idees fixes for skeptic community people where they automatically dislike it

Romanticism (the art movement) is the enemy

The food post reminded me of when I was watching a stream that fredrik knudsen was on and he was talking about the juicero and then went on this rant about how the tech CEOs want to take the humanity out of your life but used making food as an example and how tech CEOs didn't understand the joy of making your own food and how only "tech bros" would enjoy the concept of instant meal pills and it felt like I was listening to a space alien talk. I dunno maybe if you're a youtube essayist who sets your own schedule you take joy in making your own meals but when you're coming home tired from work at 8PM sometimes gas station hot bar food is what you go for rather than making your own meal. Like hell yeah sometimes I would in fact like a pill that could act as every meal. Baffling 'to toil is to be human' moment!

i hate to tell people this but i would love instant meal pills. and i'm a very talented home chef and i love cooking (it's the only thing i will suffer through my arthritis to force myself to do nowadays).

I learned about it through Undertale. When Undertale was popular, I was part of the fanbase and wanted to discover similar games, so I researched its influences. This lead to discovering Uboa, and etc.
