I think Demon Slayer will not stand the test of time, and I think it's quite simply because no one will recommend it to their kids. If I had a teenage daughter, or even a teenage son, I would not want them to see objectified immature portrayals of sex dolls posing as women. I would recommend something like Jujutsu Kaisen or Chainsaw Man instead.  Notice how older anime that people still talk about more or less has normal/adult-looking women? Monster, Death Note (Eh), Naruto etc.

Alternatively, I predict there will be re-released versions where they at least edit out the fking cleavage and giant boobs.

What's crazy about being a billionaire is that it offers you ultimate freedom, for example, I would start an N.G.O for pidgeon rights, or give every gay person 1000$, or another option, start a book publishing company for whichever books I want republished, like a complete Kautsky series, or a random 1920's novel about the Putumayo people. Many options.
          
          But billionaires atm in time seem more interested in using all that money for the singular purpose of child fcking.

The flight and expulsion of the Germans from 1945 to 1950 points to a funny contradiction of history.  A whole ethnic cleansing mass event, of 12 million people uprooted from their historical lands, and the death of about a million of them from starvation, exhaustion and cruelty, has remained a vague, sanitised footnote in European history.  
          
          It is the last cruel and tragic end to a vast pan-ideological, pan-national project of ethnic re-territorialisation and puritanism across Europe. From the "little" genocides in the Balkan Wars to the 50 years of deportations in the Soviet system and finally to the rabid buck-rake that was Hitlerist Europe, it all ended in the ironic: the apogee of ethnic cleansing was punished through ethnic cleansing.
          
          But that's not the contradiction. The contradiction is the remembrance, we spent 81 years entrenching the Holocaust into our collective memory so that any of us and all of us will remember what the worst of our nature can produce: the cowardice to not stand up, the barbarity to carry it out, the banality in obeying and the sleaziness to deny it. Within it, that noble task of remembrance had its own banality: we just had to forget.

Writing an academic essay with Libgen down is what it must have felt like for a German commander in 1944 to try and aid the frontline with supply lines bombed to smithereens by the Allies.

The counterintuitive thing about ADHD is that that one task you despise, which forms as an "until I finish this, my whole life is on standby", doesn't result in "therefore it's important I finish this to get back to my life", it results in "I want to finish this thing at any means necessary if it means going back to my life."

When America invaded Canada, the colder nation, they lost in their civil war, the colder North won against the warmer South. When they intervened in the Russian Civil War, they also lost. It is thus clear that they will lose if they invade Greenland. Why? It is because America was founded on the Fourth of July, it has a strong fire energy (which explains why their armies succeed in tropical climates). When invading a colder nation, the U.S. Army (sign in Cancer) is forced into introspection and emotional recharging, which gives it a disadvantage at external tasks, such as wars of conquest.

Analytic philosophy is crazy because they will look you dead in the eye and tell you that Saul Kripke is the greatest philosopher of the 20th century.

Reading Bourdieu in parallel with Kripke feels like being pulled in and out of Plato's cave by two people: "The fact remains that social science has to take account of the autonomy of language, its specific logic, and its particular rules of
            operation. In particular, one cannot understand the symbolic effects of language without making allowance for the fact, frequently attested, that language is the exemplary formal mechanism whose generative capacities are without limits. There is nothing that cannot be said and it is possible to say nothing. One can say everything in language, that is, within the limits of grammaticality. "
            
            And then back in:
            
            "Then, given this ftxed understanding of (I), the question of rigidity is: Is the correctness of (I), thus understood, determined with respect to each counterfactual situation by whether a certain single person would have liked dogs (had that situation obtained)? I answer the question affirmatively. But Russell seems to be committed to the opposite view, even when what (I) expresses is ftxed by the context. Only given such a ftxed understanding of (I) would Russell read (I) as (3)-not if 'Aristotle' meant Onassis I-but the rigidity requirement is violated. This question is entirely unaffected by the presence or absence in the language of other readings of (I)."

I want to be the designated femboy of one of those big-ass Liquified Gas Tankers, one of these is three hundred metres in length, precisely the length of the Eiffel Tower. It's got four to perhaps five awesome tiddies, otherwise known as the Kvaerner Moss Spherical tank, in which liquified gas is preserved at temperatures so low you can only find them on the peaks of Antarctica's mountains (-160°C),
          they are also the size of a 13-storey building ( 40 Meters ), and once again, this thing can carry five of them, and finally, it has an engine the size of three lorries with around 62,000 horsepower, approximately as powerful as 5-6 Chinook helicopters combined. Yet like most ships, its hull is super thin, and it's only 36 tonnes when filled, could theoretically put it on a truck! It's a monstrous marvel of industrial engineering...they can even be stylish like the Grand Aniva. It also goes all across the world, and it's protected by the U.S.A or something. I get to prance around with a spyglass in my sailor outfit, ordering   around and...so much more!

I spent a good chunk of 2025 autistically fixated on the gruesome history of the D.R.C, Rwanda and Burundi. I have found a lot of books and other materials about the Congo Free State atrocities, Leopold's role in dividing Africa, the Force Publique, the rubber boom and how it connects with the Putumayo genocide in Brazil, and I have found out about Mark Twain and Conan Doyle's roles in making it public to the European crowds, about an Irish nationalist, Roger Casement, who exposed both genocides, who is considered a father of human rights investigations and an incredibly impressive person. 
          
          There is also a little-known planned famine in Rwanda and Burundi between 1943 and 1945, which killed 50,000 people.
          
          I have continued to read about the Ikiza, the genocide of 300,000 Hutus by its Tusi population in 1970 and the subsequent massacres in 1993 of 100,000 more, which preceded the Rwandan genocide. Of course, after the genocide there were more massacres during the First Congo War, aprox 200,000 people. There is of course also the genocide of the Congo's pygmy population, "Effacer le tableau", 60,000 more. Finally, we get to the D.R.C. today and the mass food insecurity affecting about 23 million people. 
          
          This all started with my long fixation on Heart of Darkness, which is set in the Congo during Leopold's rule itself, which I got from being a fan of Apocalypse Now.
          
          Now at the very end of 2025, I find out that in January a group of Romanian mercenaries failed to hold Goma against a group of M28 (backed by Rwanda ) insurgents and were sent to Burundi. Potra, who previously led this group of P.M.Cs was arrested in Bucharest in 2024 for attempting a coup here, in Romania.
          
          There is more to this, but the idea is that this feels like a schizo "this is my destiny" moment; almost everything seems to connect in some way now. I can't help but be drawn like a magnet to this conflict and region; I'm definitely dedicating an important chunk of my life to this now.
