Putting under cut some spoiler-related talk, so proceed with caution if you don't want to be spoiled about the Dirge of Bilqis world quest!
The ending of this last quest did make me think of something and this is probably going to be an unpopular opinion, but the Traveler, even if they aren't doing shit actively as their Abyss twin counterpart is, isn't nothing short of a calamitous being in Teyvat. There is this one quote of one of the Black Knight Serpents we encounter in the Chasm in order to get these orbs that eventually let us reach to a closed room:
「…Companion of that tyrant, “fate”, the traveler known as “calamity”…」
                                                                               —Edgetho, Breaker of the Oath of Silence.
And in all fairness, while at the time I had no idea why this quote was thrown randomly at the Traveler, I'm starting to understand now even though there was a clue even further in the past than when this happened.
We have this person that is known as a hero because of their deeds in every nation, but deep down it's very obvious that this is done for the sake of having us, as the player, feel important and as part of the story. In my honest opinion this removes part of the relevance of other characters that can partake in the problem-solving of their own nation just as fine.
Now, let's take a moment to build a hypothetical case: we remove the Traveler from all these "heroic" deeds and think of them as being each of the respective nation characters' deeds instead. If we take that out of the equation, while the Traveler displayed an interesting ability which is purifying (that was never again touched on), there is nothing relevant. But there is if we consider that we as the Traveler went on a killing spree of that one last clan of Inazuma by the face and then went on to defeat Ferigees, who was protecting the Eternal Oasis and preventing it from falling.
We know that time eventually would make it fall either way, but in doing what we did we precipitated that which... in my eyes it's far from being okay if we're to think about all the sacrifices it took to be able to accomplish that. Let's think about the forbidden knowledge for which the Scarlet King sacrificed himself in order to stall the calamity that was. About Greater Lord Rhukkadevata who was spent after helping out and lost a great deal of her strength. About the people who died at the time and all the way to the present because of the Eleazar.
By this I don't mean to criticize Jeht because it was because of her we accompanied her in this journey, but something I'm missing in this game is this thing about "hey, how about we don't in case xyz happens", maybe something akin to Life is Strange. All decisions carry consequences and in this case, it was the precipitation of making this Eternal Oasis fall. Something tells me that it won't be the last thing we'll see of this kind happening as it already happened once in the past, but man does this make you consider how some things better stay the same without being touched. By an outlander at that that presumably isn't from this world which might make things even worse because at the closest opportunity they'll leave and with that they'll leave behind what they've done without affecting their lives.

Vulcan teen on Vulcan [tiktok] saying "I have just lost track of my father in the grocery store." The camera turns to show the viewers the grocery store in which almost every single older middle-aged man has a bowlcut and long robes. Camera turns back to show the teen's face which is expressionless and yet communicates all it needs to.

that article going around abt firefox's new ad program is annoying bc it's phrased as though "mozilla has finally TURNED on its people and is SELLING YOU OUT for cold hard cash!!" when. that's not what's happening. it is specifically being implemented to discourage tracking behavior, and literally all the data they are giving to advertisers is aggregate and anonymized, which is like, the opposite of what that post wants you to worry about, lol

The world exists in such a baffling state of simultaneous sex-aversion and sex-hegemony. Every social platform on the internet is trying to banish sex workers to the shadow realm but I can't post a tweet without at least two bots replying P U S S Y I N B I O. People are self-censoring sex to seggs and $3× but every other ad you see is still filled with half-naked women. Rightwingers want queer people arrested for so much as existing in the same postal code as a child and are also drumming up a moral panic about how teenage boys aren't getting laid enough. I feel like I'm losing my mind.

this is just my opinion but i think any good media needs obsession behind it. it needs passion, the kind of passion that's no longer "gentle scented candle" and is now "oh shit the house caught on fire". it needs a creator that's biting the floorboards and gnawing the story off their skin. creators are supposed to be wild animals. they are supposed to want to tell a story with the ferocity of eating a good stone fruit while standing over the sink. the same protective, strange instinct as being 7 and making mud potions in pink teacups: you gotta get weird with it.
good media needs unhinged, googling-at-midnight kind of energy. it needs "what kind of seams are invented on this planet" energy and "im just gonna trust the audience to roll with me about this" energy. it needs one person (at least) screaming into the void with so much drive and energy that it forces the story to be real.
sometimes people are baffled when fanfic has some stunning jaw-dropping tattoo-it-on-you lines. and i'm like - well, i don't go here, but that makes sense to me. of fucking course people who have this amount of passion are going to create something good. they moved from a place of genuine love and enjoyment.
so yeah, duh! saturday cartoons have banger lines. random street art is sometimes the most precious heart-wrenching shit you've ever seen. someone singing on tiktok ends up creating your next favorite song. youtubers are giving us 5 hours of carefully researched content. all of this is the impossible equation to latestage capitalism. like, you can't force something to be good. AI cannot make it good. no amount of focus-group testing or market research. what makes a story worth listening to is that someone cares so much about telling it - through dance, art, music, whatever it takes - that they are just a little unhinged about it.
one time my friend told me he stayed up all night researching how many ways there are to peel an orange. he wrote me a poem that made me cry on public transportation. the love came through it like pith, you know? the words all came apart in my hands. it tasted like breakfast.
