You keep your eye on the queen, and the knights, and the bishop, because they are the sneaky ones. But it’s the rook that often gets you. The straightforward is never quite what it seems.

Is the situation actually complicated or is it really quite straightforward, but you're making it complicated because it requires a lot of courage to make the straightforward decision?

But writing with simplicity requires courage, for there is a danger that one will be overlooked, dismissed as simpleminded by those with a tenacious belief that impossible prose is a hallmark of intelligence.

Not related to Bleach at all but I’ve been rewatching Inuyasha and TF Armada at the same time, which has been hilarious due to the shared VAs.

First of all, Miroku is larping as an all-American tween who is deeply passionate about always being right and being the Autobot’s favorite pet.

And one of the episodes introduces a new Autobot and the kids are like ‘I don’t know about him, but maybe we’re being unfair, let’s give him a chance’ and the dude rolls up with the voice of Naraku. Just straight Naraku with some reverb. So even if you aren’t like ‘wow, Sideways is a sus name’ you know the jig. That thing is malicious and should not be trusted.

Jaken is an excitable helicopter who has a chronic giggling condition and is peak Lackey.

Kouga is a cocky airplane who prides himself on being Real Fast and Tough.

Like the type-casting going on here is legendary.

There are some other big ones. For instance Sesshomaru and Megatron share VAs and so do Carlos (one of the kids) and Bankotsu but those aren’t voices I clocked right off the bat because they are playing into their range (and also they reverb the FUCK out of Megatron’s voice. His cadence is the same, but the VA plays Sesshomaru like such a whispery waif compared to Megatron). Aaaand there are plenty of others but they aren’t as fun.

Like, I definitely watched Armada before I watched Inuyasha (I think I found Inuyasha in like 2004?) so I think this is the first time I’m realizing these dubs both came out in 2002 and that casts reflect that 100% omg.

The most straightforward reading of the data is that Einstein was wrong and there can be strange, weird, and "spooky" quantum connections between things over here and things over there.⁵

5. Quantum mechanics makes predictions about the microworld that agree fantastically well with experimental observations. On this, there is universal agreement. Nevertheless, because the detailed features of quantum mechanics, as discussed in this chapter, differ significantly from those of common experience, and, relatedly, as there are different mathematical formulations of the theory (and different formulations of how the theory spans the gap between the microworld of phenomena and the macroworld of measured results), there isn't consensus on how to interpret various features of the theory (and various puzzling data which the theory, nevertheless, is able to explain mathematically), including issues of nonlocality. In this chapter, I have taken a particular point of view, the one I find most convincing based on current theoretical understanding and experimental results. But, I stress here that not everyone agrees with this view, and in a later endnote, after explaining this perspective more fully, I will briefly note some of the other perspectives and indicate where you can read more about them. Let me also stress, as we will discuss later, that the experiments contradict Einstein's belief that the data could be explained solely on the basis of particles always possessing definite, albeit hidden, properties without any use or mention of nonlocal entanglement. However, the failure of this perspective only rules out a local universe. It does not rule out the possibility that particles have such definite hidden features.
