no! polished, focus-group-tested media will KILL patient! patient needs decades-long sweeping sci-fi webcomics written, drawn, and produced by one amateur furry artist who was going through a lot at the time to live!

Sun Tzu is so fucking funny to me because for his time he was legitimately a brilliant tactician but a bunch of his insight is shit like "if you think you might lose, avoid doing that", "being outnumbered is bad generally", and "consider lying."
My personal favourite is his lengthy lecture on the subject of Supplies Being Very Important I Cannot Stress Enough The Importance Of Protecting Your Supply Lines But Also Supply Lines Are Expensive As Shit So Steal The Enemy’s Supplies At Every Opportunity.
One of the more important things to consider about any historical work is the audience it was published for. The Art Of War was aimed at fancy nobles high on philosophy with little practical military experience who were nonetheless leading armies.
Sun Tzu, after desperatly trying to explain extremely basic logic to a bunch of upper-class twits, basically sat down and wrote the most elaborate "As per my last email" ever
the art of war is tedious and irritating when you read it as like, immortal prose by the most brilliant man ever to kick ass. but it’s incredibly fucking funny when you realize that sun tzu had to write every single one of those entries because someone somewhere did not know this ahead of time and made a really, really expensive oopsie doodles.
It's just a book of those incredibly specific and stupid sounding warning signs on stuff that you know mean somebody tried something ridiculous

god I could be so wealthy if I had no ethics. that's so fucking frustrating. I'm living paycheck to paycheck because I'm not grifting vulnerable idiots on TikTok. I feel like I have the ability to very easily scam people. I could make a killing with AI. but god. I have morals and ethics and so I get to be poor as shit. I hate this fucking world
I could have made a killing as a psychic, but noooo I have to feel bad about lying to people ugh
I think abt this all the time because the thing is, evil rich people truly believe that they’re geniuses who have discovered a way to make money that the rest of us dummies haven’t…but the truth is that they are just willing to do evil shit that everyone else would prefer to not to because we have standards
A psychic or a cult leader are my top two "If only I had no ethics" dream jobs. Or to combine the two and become a high-priced life coach to the type of wealthy people who are really into The Secret and companies like Goop.
Pesky pesky ethics.

I get real "I'm at soup" vibes from some media crit
"All YA books are about vampires" you are looking at the supernatural romance shelf in a WHSmith. "All hip hop is misogynistic" have you considered listening to a female rapper. "All classic books are boring stories about straight white men" you are reading classic books by straight white men. "OFMD was the first time I saw a gay person on television" I don't even know how this happened but it's on you

Picture the ocean. No. Picture the entire thing, all at once. You are not doing it. It’s okay. One day something terrible will happen, and I will not be prepared.

one of my favorite things about the tf2 mercs is just getting to assign what parts of myself i project onto whom. Heavy gets my love for opera. Engie gets my mad skills for making grilled cheese. Scout got scarlet fever when he was in kindergarten. It took me a long time to decide who was gonna be a knitter, but I've finally found an answer that feels right and it's Pyro.
