Families in Tehran are taping up their windows and sleeping together in rooms away from the glass. Their buildings have already been shaken by nightly explosions from the most sustained bombing in the capital since the eight years of the Iran-Iraq war. Some are rushing to buy
generators, concerned that new attacks could cause critical services like electricity and water to unravel.
The bombings and threats have left many Iranians living in fear not only of their own government, which killed thousands of people in a crackdown on protesters early this year, but their would-be American rescuers, who pledged at the beginning of the war to create the conditions for their government to fall.
A 43-year-old woman living in Tehran and undergoing treatment for breast cancer said she worried what intensified attacks on infrastructure could mean for her healthcare.

We are terrorizing an entire country.

Is… the thesis of Chainsaw Man similar to the thesis of BoJack Horseman? That if you desire endlessly, if you cultivate that craving for the next peak, you’ll never be satisfied?

Lost in AI translation: What’s at stake? Our humanity. Literary translation is one of humanity's most crucial tasks — one that should never be left to the machines.

Commentary: AI translation of literature should be questioned because literary translation requires human interpretation and cultural understanding that machines cannot provide.

Overall, I enjoyed OPLA S2 far more than S1. More of One Piece’s whimsy, heart, and kindness stayed in.

Although Kureha’s “decision” in episode 8 harkened back to my issues with Nojiko in S1. Kindness is so central to why I love OP.

Lastly, Hiriluk in ep 7 is effectively a miracle. Astonishing.

Seto-kun is a mascot from Seto City and is based on a historical ceramic guardian dog from there. He plays a mean sax.

How can One Piece season 2 get a 100% on Rotten Tomatoes when they didn’t even let that little girl spill her ice cream on Smoker’s abs?

I would honestly enjoy it more if it were weekly, too. When I saw it in the theater yesterday, watching two in a row kinda felt like overeating at a restaurant.

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads:

The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you.

And our governments are very much the same...

- Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.
