I love his stated intention behind these projects, ‘Confuse historians’.

Your periodical reminder that cats love people just as much as dogs even if apparently the average person is too much of an emotionally stunted extrovert to get it. They don't feel spite or whatever fucked up emotions one would wanna assign to them.
Cats are little goblins who love parallel play, that's why they sit in front of your computer screen and paw at shit on your desk for attention.

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

I own a shirt that says exactly what the comment above says. And you would not -believe- the number of truly awkward interactions I've had that start with someone saying "so what's the second type?"

when i say "girl" it's not gender neutral, it's because everyone is a girl to me and I'm maliciously misgendering you to fit you into my vision of the ideal world

What no one warned me about when I got into Discworld is that Terry Pratchett would completely ruin all my future footnote experiences. Now, whenever I read a book (even if it is an academic text!!) and see a superscripted number, my monkey brain makes my eyes drop to the bottom of the page asap, expecting a funny, poignant, memorable, and potentially life-altering little treat, and instead I get hit every time with the soul-crushing disappointment of McFarthy, G. et al. (1997)

Okay this comment I just came across deserves its own post. Imagine showing this to someone who's never used Tumblr and explaining why haikus are relevant in this context.

I wish I had a reusable magical girl transformation sequence so getting ready was easier..
Magical girl but all the powers are neurodivergencey or disability acomandatiouns.
Magical girl sequence but it takes multiple months, if not years, and the government makes you go through multiple processes for the magical girl sequence to be recognized
Well… fuck. Sigh.
Do I at least get a cute skirt and magic wand?
That’s in the paid dlc, otherwise you have to hope you get those as gifts
