What I find interesting about the symbolism in the story of Slay The Princess
SPOILERS AHEAD
The Shifting Mound is shown as a Princess since she embodies Change, the kingdom of Men, of Mortality and Impermanence, thereby choosing a piece of our culture that we (mostly) made up and will likely be lost to time. That of a traditional Monarchy, of princesses and princes, kings and queens.
Or chosen because the office of Princess is not subject to change but the person who inhabits it is. The Queen dies and her heir takes the throne and her daughter becomes the new princess and so on and so forth. the shifting mound is a living blob of infinite possibilities, infinite stories to tell, of love, of sorrow, rage and calm, war and peace. Life and Death.
The Long Quiet represents the kingdom of God(s). Unchanging, Immortal, imperceptible and abstract, taking the form of a bird with wings that stretch forever as reference to Biblical Angels or, more likely as reference to Cosmic Horror. Of beasts beyond human comprehension, everywhere and nowhere simultaneously. The name in and of itself has meaning in regards to the Universe itself. If Heat Death is achieved, there will be nothing at all for nearly a nearly infinite amount of time, that is, to put it simply, incalculable. The nothing is nearly permanent. A Long Quiet, to put it simply. It is Forever and Forever is It.
I’ve been thinking about this for the past 2 days. Food for thought. 🫤

The heat death of the universe implies such entropy that all heat, all energy, anything that affects physics and time and space disappears by cooling. This alone can't affect matter because even in the vast void, a clump of matter can orbit or float or attract to other remnant matter and either collide, causing heat and energy even in a minuscule amount, or clump enough together over time to form another star or pinpoint of contracting mass and thus energy, which given enough time could continue amassing as such to form a new Big Bang, starting it all over again.
The total loss of energy would also require all matter to somehow denature in the cold and be reduced to base atoms, which would then also need to decay to nothing. I am not sure if this is possible, so correct me if I am wrong, but I think that's why we measure elemental lifespans in half-lives - we can observe fractional decay, in continually smaller amounts, long past the point of usefulness or notability, but not in it's entirety.
If an immortal person still exists, then there is still matter and energy existing and active, and so the universe is not ended. It would require that immortal person to denature as well, which, under the given definition of immortality, cannot be possible.
If whatever mechanic keeping that immortal person in existence (the replication or utter preservation of matter and energy), and whatever form exists to comprehend that immortality (a soul or consciousness, the prerequisite for true immortality to be undesirable or torturous) can somehow persist past the end of everything, then nothing will ever truly end because that mechanic will still exist - and if that mechanic has such power to preserve, then it can surely either preserve EVERYTHING that qualifies somehow, or perhaps even reignite heat as needed. YOU could even be the immortal match that reignites existence.
If that mechanic CAN'T do any of that, and it is a limited immortality, then you can indeed die or come apart, and likely will before a torturous eternity in the void is a possibility.
And that's all not even considering everything we don't know about how the universe works. Perhaps there IS no heat-death because dark matter or some other unknown factor will always be roiling around cause friction and heat. Maybe there is a god or jinni or higher intelligence and power that presides over that kind of thing.
Immortality then is likely to be more of a long life than anything. Long enough to have fun and love and live and forget and live in a long-enough version of the transitive state we already all live in.
"immortality sucks because all your friends die" all your friends die anyway. those we do not mourn are those who mourn us.
"immortality sucks because you forget who you are" we always forget who we are. do you remember who you were at four years of age? who you were at fourteen? "who i am" is a shadow cast on the wall.
"immortality sucks because" skill issue. skill issue. skill issue. give me your liver

how do you know if you are having a unique thought? like you have no clue if someone hundreds of years ago already had that same thought, but maybe they just could articulate it or record it in any way that lasted through the years. so now its gone. and you are plagiarizing the thoughts of ancient people.
like, i feel there is no way that i am special in any significant way. so what are the chances that i come up with an original idea? probably very slim right? like in the grand scheme of the universe?
obviously, so in todays essay im going to explain...

it’s so crazy that we can tell you whether or not something is a human but we can’t actually put rules about what parts of them make them human

Okay but the whole mainstream meme culture being like 90% symptoms of mental illnesses has to say something about gen z. Like I think that’s part of the reason older people don’t find memes funny, because there is a deep rooted in and out group for memes. I think part of it is the mass trauma events of gen z in general, especially older gen z (1997-2002), and younger gen Z (2008-10 who just didn’t develop social skills the same because of the pandemic.

What I love about Dungeon Meshi is that it says “eat, or be eaten,” but not as in “survival of the fittest.” “Eat, or be eaten,” because there is no third choice—every day of your life, one or the other will happen. If you choose not to eat, you will be eaten. Eating is a mandatory part of being alive. The failure to acknowledge this makes you weak, guarantees that you will fail—as seen with Shuro, as seen with Thistle.
“Eat, or be eaten,” because “living things take other lives as sustenance, and no one is exempt.” If you eat—if you are a living thing—you will be eaten one day. Whether it's to literally be killed and eaten for your flesh, or decomposed down to the bone—violently or painlessly, quickly or slowly, you will be eaten and turned into sustenance for other living things. A dead body is always consumed as food, and there is no meaningful distinction between the two. The only way to avoid it is to have never been born at all.
“Eat, or be eaten,” because “eating is a privilege of the living.” And isn’t that incredible? To be a living thing is to have the privilege of eating. To have the ability to eat is a boon, an honour, a birthright. It is the unique, universe-given gift and right of all living things. It is synonymous with being alive—to live is to eat. To eat is to be eaten. We are eaten because we eat, we die because we were born, and the privilege of eating is earned through the inevitability of our deaths. The two cannot be separated.
“Eat, or be eaten,” because “eating is a privilege of the living” and the reason why a mortal man could topple the personification of infinity—it cannot die, therefore it is not alive, yet it chose to eat. But to eat at all is to become a thing that can be eaten—choosing to take means you will have things taken from you in the same manner. The moment that Laios accepted this—after killing his sister with his own hands—was the moment the Winged Lion had already lost.
Dungeon Meshi is far from the first story to say, “memento mori.” But it takes the inevitability of death—a concept too distant and philosophical to grip the average person—and reframes it within the act of eating. Makes it visceral by using a universal part of daily life, a routine that every living thing is intimately familiar with.
“Remember that you will die,” it says, but furthermore, “remember that your future death is a prerequisite for the food you are able to eat now—remember that other things die so that you can eat, remember that you will die to feed something else, and that there is no other alternative. There is no way to stop this. To take is to have things taken from you. To eat is to be eaten one day. There is nothing kind or cruel about this—it just is, and you must be the one to understand it and bring meaning to your own existence.
In light of all this, why wouldn't you choose to live as deliciously as possible?”

i think this is fairly sensible because the reason we care about people's thoughts from a "moral" perspective is because they influence their actions later. the consequences in the short term might be the same in the situation above, but long term the person who faced adversity and continued to act well is more trustworthy and dependable than the other, because we have no evidence that they will not cave the moment they're put in a particularly bad situation. It's if an unorthodox way of looking at things from what I've seen but I think it's possible to have a consequentialist or even utilitarian model of morality and still care about people's thoughts and mental states, etc...
if i my framework of morality was not strictly consequentialist i would say you are more virtuous if you are tempted to evil but act good than a person who does the same stuff but just bc they want to and they never have the urge to do otherwise. basically. demonstrates a strength of character and saintlike determination to uphold moral truth

what manhwa have you been reading? I've currently been on a very shitty romance isekai villainess kick lmao
I grasp your hands. Another pig in the trough of manwha. I'm not a huge villainess person, but obviously I have read a shitton of it. I read so much awful manwha, but the good is SO good. Everybody knows that SSS Class Suicide Hunter is perfection, but I feel like The Ember Knight is fucking incredible and not discussed as much! Everybody read The Ember Knight (if you like action)! It's incredible!
I just finished Concubine Walkthrough, which was AMAZING. So good! What a great usage of the premise! Chinese period piece concubine drama (a whole genre.) + 'player gets trapped in an MMORPG' flavor isekai + being ACTUALLY science fiction and extremely interested in the science fiction aspects of virtual reality. I refuse to read those gamer MMORPG manwhas because they're terrible, but Concubine Walkthrough is what you always wish those stories were like.
I also just read through My In-Laws Are Obsessed With Me, which sounds like it should be uninteresting but it is shockingly extremely good. Very good character work, extremely slow and realistic buildup of the importance of the FL in the family, great politics/character dynamics, and the slowburn romance is even really good. Just overall extremely good writing and it was an extremely good read.
I've also been reading Until The Tragic Male Lead Walks Again, which is incredibly fun and funny through virtue of himbo buff FL and sweet and sensitive ML. The ML is disabled as well, which is also always great to see, although it still has that strange character note that's identical to Touch My Brother and You're Dead and associates a man gaining a disability as losing masculinity and blah blah blah woke brain off. I also really enjoyed Perks of Being an S-Class Heroine, which does a difficult thing and makes the OP hero story actually very enjoyable. I also re-read/caught up on Lead Me Kidnap The Male Lead! which is VERY fun 100/10 recommend. Also like a lot of other stuff but those are the ones I would recommend.
Always taking manwha recs so if you got any I will definitely check them out :3.
#you know how you can lift up a rock and see an entire colony of bugs underneath?#me and my manwha thing.#reading list over the past month has been. house of leaves. zen buddhist philosophy. *insane quantity of manwha*.#ogres have layers i guess.#gonna be real halloween month was less reading and more like#every vincent price movie#like so many. like. the amount of vincent price ive seen now.#my asks

Hawkfrost and Brambleclaw dynamic to me
#hawkfrost#brambleclaw#the new prophecy#wc#warrior cats#warriors#jokes aside theres a line in mothwings secret i keep thinking about where hawkfrost mentions meeting brambleclaw#and he says ''i guess everyone knows we're both tigerstar's sons. but he was born in the clans so no one worries about HIM''#with like clearly implied resentment. and also bramble is xenophobic to him in dawn before their relation is revealed#those two quotes make me think that like. i dont think hawk ever liked his brother lol. he has nothing in common with this man#how hawkfrosts rogue status comes before tigerstar being his father. how he'd be a victim of his father's philosophy#whats this guy got any business suddenly claiming that they totally have the same exact trauma

the idea of svetlana and mickey being sooo good with numbers and yevgeny being absolute shit enlights me with such enthusiasm you guys have no idea
like listen just listen imagine little yevgeny being a disaster throughout all of his school life and struggling with math and physics and all that BUT he learns russian and ukrainian and other languages as easily as breathing and decides that for the future he wants to go to college for a language degree and specialize in translation
he likes things like literature translation which requires a lot of ability to properly convey an idea and sentiments when passing a text from one language to another, but he sees himself making a life with like legal translation, working with laws, regulations, codes, decrees and contracts etc and/or with personal texts specifically so he can help immigrants like his mother
#no cause i get emotional just imagining it#YEVGENY IS MY SON YOU GUYS DONT GET IT I LOVE HIM#it also makes ian sooo happy cause yev is really into bioethics and philosophy and i mean principles and moral/ethic is ian thing right#serving the community being a hero doing whats right and all that#yevgeny grows older and marries a really hot professor and together they change the world into a better place amen#yevgeny milkovich#svetlana yevgenivna#mickey milkovich#shameless#shameless us#og.#fic idea#i guess?
