  3. True, I feel the same as a reader with those stories that have such ridiculously incompetent figures of authority. But then history will tell me that yeah, this is plausible.

  6. Is it really whining when she just goes on a killing-madness inducing rampage? It's not like she's just complaining to others about it. Could of saved a few lives if all she did was whine.

  7. Oh, that's a fearsom thought. To imagine that something like all those Y/N works in wattpad could be one day be used by future generations to study the culture and society of today. (°-°)

  8. This is the problem with World-History-as-told-by-western-society, they tend to completely downplay/overlook Asian histories to the point that they sometimes depict themselves as the "most historically tragic victims in history," while disregarding that every country had tragedies that are comparable or even worse. Not trying to negate tragedies, but just saying that slavery and colonization weren't only western problems.

  9.  @ivyinkwell1754  So, you're into theocracy, monarchy, and motharchy?

  10. Bye, Red 😔

  11.  @thequad8945  Oh, I heard about that. Totally legit. My uncle's boss's wife's best friend's daughter told my nephew that the location is about 500km east of my general location at all times. So, go that way.

  12. Medjed is a Smiter god who shoots from his eyes (I'm guessing how he smites). Sounds more we need to run if he ever look our way.
    23
  13. Oh, so this is Kazuya Minekura's Saiyuki version of Journey to the West then?
    22
  14. It felt like there was a filter that went over my eyes or over whole the world. Very surreal.

  15.  @fredfry5100  I thought Oolong had enough development in Dragon Ball to at least see some similarities in personalities to Pigsy.

  16. I've always wanted to see an actual bolt from the blue. Though the idiom definitely wouldn't mean the same anymore if that were to happen.

  18. 5:55 ~Triggered~ That happened to me!!! (*/>□<)/" This emoticon might look cute but I'm still absolutely livid about this incident! I had to wait 2 weeks for a new laptop and all my classes required the use of a laptop (I went to a tech school). I had to write everything out and transfer everything onto one of the library's computer/laptops and email that to myself. But library stuff can't be taken out of the library. This, by itself, wouldn't have been that much of an issue, BUT... all of my hw required access to a computer and internet, AND that semester, I was taking a class that gave hw that generally took an average of 10 hours, 3-5 study groups, and 2 TAs to complete, and all due every 2 days! I had to SLEEP IN THE LIBRARY FOR 2 WEEKS just to have access the library's laptop/computer for those assignments and all extra stuff AND still get enough sleep to go to morning classes on time the next day! I was only able back to my dorm on Sundays! SUNDAYS! I HOPE THERE'S A SPECIAL HELL JUST FOR YOU, YOU JACK@$$!!!

  19. Or, and hear me out, if you're looking at this as a shadow vs ego perspective (given how it's talking about his base urges vs his perceived goodness), it's a warning against mishandling all aspects of oneself and a stress in the need to find balance. I say this because one can argue that neither Jekyll nor Hyde are his true self, yet they are still personas of the same person. You can take the "freedom" aspect as symbolic for drug addiction, but it can also be argued that such ill-conceived traits (impatience, apathy, anger, sloth, unreasonableness, etc.) exist within all of us and aren't things that can disappear, or are actually even all inherently "bad." Rather than saying to not indulge in these "freedoms" at all, as Dr. Jekyll does with his "good" persona, it's healthier to learn to manage these traits and find a balance so as to not overwhelm oneself with the pressures of suppressing innate emotions in order to conform with the perception of what is "good," all while not overindulging in inhibitions to the point that one becomes a danger to oneself and society. Edit: I'm only pointing this out because these interpretations give us 2 contradicting messages of the story that I thought were interesting contrasts: non-indulgence vs self-management (which include a balance for some indulgence). I definitely agree that if you're in trouble, for any reason, don't stop yourself from seeking/accepting help.

  20. Yes, the gods might have some of the worst traits displayed in some of the worst of ways, but darn, if they aren't entertaining characters.

  21. I watched SG, multiple times when it was first released, so I never really checked into the reviews for it, but I wonder if the lack of trending in-depth discussion videos was bc the show was so blatant abt this premise (that and then a lot of ppl decided really quickly to get into semi-recreating the game scenarios, and that aspect sort of took over the narrative around the show).

  22. Long sigh~ I don't know why I even liked you.

  27.  @DrawciaGleam02  analytical psychology, established by psychiatrist Carl Jung. It deals a lot with the ego and self, including the shadow, the repressed--and typically socially unacceptable--aspects of oneself (Hyde) and the persona, the idealized perception of oneself that we outwardly portray as to best fit the situation (Jekyll).

  32. I actually learned the Athena, sore loser, version as a kid from D'Aulaires' Book of Greek Myths and then again in high school from a research article waaay before ever hearing of Percy.

  39. I was already a fan of both before BTS released their newest album's, Persona, song title track. The album is connected to Map of the Soul by Murray Stein, which explored the psychological theories of Carl Jung, who used Dionysus in one of his theories. Red, as usual, does an excellent analysis on mythological figure, such as here, so it's no surprise to me that a lot of kpop fans are checking her vid out.

  40. No surprise, the grecian/roman gods were generally pretty messed up. Could never understand why they were made as religions but they are hella entertaining.

  46. One famous couple whose story I'm pretty interested in would be King Gongmin and Queen Noguk. Theirs was basically a hostage marriage but they winded up actually falling in love and took the first steps to strip away what is now Korea (formerly Goryeo) from Mongol control. There's a little bit of a starrcrossed lovers theme in that Noguk was a Mongolian Princess while Gongmin was the next in line for the Korean throne at the time of their marriage. However, as all great love stories in history go, theirs was also a tragic one and a good lesson on why you shouldn't make your life revolve around your partner. Noguk died during childbirth (after years of trying to conceive) and Gongmin refused to take on another wife because he believed no woman could ever match/replace Noguk. He turned exclusively to male lovers instead and later winded up being killed by one of his concubines and her lover after he discovered she was pregnant (cause he knew the baby couldn't be his--though he apparently was only going to kill her lover when he found out). And he also completely disregarded the state of affairs in his government right in the middle of his attempted reforms and spent most of his time by his wife's grave, lamenting why she left him alone.

  47.  @Savagewolver  This is true; I was impressed.

  48. I feel some heavy bias in this story retelling...

  49. It's complicated.

  50. Pls, Red. Don't give Duolingo ideas. The last thing I need are notifications that it has become a god unto itself, and that never ends well.

  51. Sounds more like a placebo effect rather than magic science to me.

  52.  @ryuhitsuya21  Says you, I already knew and am a subscriber of OSP. Though, I am low-key surprised that people genuinely didn't know about Dionysus -sorry fellow ARMYs but history and mythology is awesome, please check out more about it~ ☆♡☆

  55. This is the reason I quit Dragonball Super.

  56. And then there are those stories that the authors did them so terribly that I'd rather they pull the "all a dream" trope just to fix it. Sorry, not sorry, but some storylines do not need a continuation and when it's at that point, I don't trust the author's ability to fix it as is.

  57. Someone suggested Shangri-la, and I really want to know if there's been any fun tales with that. Or Avalon.

  64. Special mention: "For better and worse, the project went on hold in 1178 (If only we could Be An Island, man, that would be great.) because of the near-constant wars amid Italian states." -Blue went into his poetry bag this episode

  75. Oolong or chrysanthemum for me. I like how mellow oolong is and how light, yet sweetly fragrant, chrysanthemum can be (plus, if you get the type that expands while steeping, it looks so pretty).

  76. Personally prefer reading from a 3rd-person POV. 1st person tends to throw me out of the story.

  92. I can agree with that, because in the US, that's probably not a case mistaken identity in its usage. BoD in plenty of hospitals might as well be thieves whose primary care is about the dollar °~°

  106. Didn't Gilgamesh do this? I could be wrong, but it sounds like something he'd do too.

  107. My biggest issue as a Marvel fan abt Civil War is the execution of it. The idea was interesting to explore but the execution was handled so poorly no matter the medium, whether it be the comics or the MCU (and the MCU continues to baffle me how the execution of the core issue was still badly done, bc the comics at least had the excuse of too many writers and the idea being more/less new and extremely expansive in-universe).

  108. Nice username!

  109. Why be mad about Winnie the Pooh, really? If someone likens you to him, just own it. Turn it into a positive. It should be easy; the bear is that adorable. (Can't guarantee that it'll stop all the justified ridicule, but people should be bound to move on if it's too ineffective).
