I’m acting weird because he’s being distant? We’ve not spoken much in the last 2 days. My attempts at conversation are met with simple and short answers, but it’s on me somehow.

To be clear, I’m assuming that after this last round of the “it isn’t gonna work” conversation, that moving forward this is more platonic. Or at least until he decides to have this conversation again and tell me that he doesn’t know how it’s going to work out and that we’re friends (again).

Which, by the way, he becomes more and more angry each time we have the conversation about the fact that he doesn’t want to come to the states…

He's actually more or less making the Talmudic argument here. Even if "being transgender" were explicitly impermissible in the Torah (it isn't, though I'm sure some would try to argue it is), the statistics on suicide rates are undeniable, and any commandment can be, and must be, suspended to save human life. Pikuach Nefesh. You don't fast on Yom Kippur if it will kill you. You don't rest from your work on the sabbath if your work is necessary for someone else to live. This is a very straightforward application of the principle. And you can take that to any Jewish transphobe you ever meet.

Forgive my gentile ass but my tired brain initially read ‘Pikuach Nefesh’ as Pikachu Nefesh

So… since that last discussion, conversation has continued as if it never happened. Today, however, the topic arose again. This was pretty out of the blue and was basically a rehashing of the last time. He finished his part of the conversation by telling me to just forget about this. I responded saying that this would be something we would have to have a discussion about and see how it would work out.

I’ve been left on read for most of the day. Tomorrow may carry on like nothing happened or I won’t hear anything from him. I’m thinking the latter is more probable.

I will update if anything further develops.

“In 1404, King Taejong fell from his horse during a hunting expedition. Embarrassed, looking to his left and right, he commanded, “Do not let the historian find out about this.” To his disappointment, the historian accompanying the hunting party included these words in the annals, in addition to a description of the king’s fall.“

LMFAOOOOOO rip to that guy

i thought maybe this was fake, but there’s even a citation!

Taejong Sillok Book 7. 5th year of King Taejong’s Reign (1404), February 8.

Happy 618th anniversary of the day King Taejong fell from his horse!

Apparently the recorders were really intense about this. We have a record of King Taejong complaining about a recorder who followed him on a hunt in disguise and another who eavesdropped on him behind a screen. No one was allowed to see the records, even the king (one king did and killed five men based on what was written there, after which they took greater care to ensure it would never happen again), and changing the content or disclosing it was a capital punishment. Even when there were rival political factions trying to influence the writers, they wrote down what was a revision and what wasn’t and kept an original version with no revisions in it.

They also made sure to back up their data. They made four copies of it, then when three copies were lost in the Imrim Wars they decided to make five more copies just in case. One copy was destroyed in a rebellion, another was partially damaged in an invasion, and Japan stole one copy during their occupation and moved it to Tokyo University, where it was mostly destroyed in the Kanto Earthquake (47 books remained and were returned to South Korea in 2006). Now the whole thing is digitized, free on the internet, and translated into modern Korean for all to see.

It took centuries of meticulous recorders, justifiably paranoid copiers, absolutely determined historians, and painstaking infrastructure for this joke to be possible. Happy 618th anniversary to the day King Taejong fell from his horse.

Happy 619th anniversary to the day King Taejong fell from his horse!

happy 620th anniversary of the day a king fell off his horse everybody

happy 621st anniversayr of the day a king fell of his horse

I find it kind of funny that human babies are so fragile and helpless and useless that natural selection went like HARD-hard on humans finding babies cute. This thing is a wailing messy resource sinkhole so please find other reason to enjoy it. And the humans that did find baby cute and invest time in them, the crazy bastards?? Lived!!

And now there’s so much spill-over from “baby cute” gene that humans see literally any “baby” creature that even slightly resembles us, like

and we’re like 😍🥰🤩🥺🥺🥺 I wanna love you so bad. I wanna make so many images of you, you are so small, just baby. I’m inventing new emotions as we speak bc I love you so much.

Like, I’m almost convinced humans didn’t even domesticate dogs bc we thought they’d be useful, we saw some puppies and it activated our Big Boi Primate Baby buttons, it wasn’t even logic time baby, it was 🥺 time.

The funniest thing about that is the fact that neuroimaging of elephant brains have proved that they think that we – humans – are cute in exactly the same way. They most likely want to squish and cuddle us the way we want to do with puppies based on the firing of their neurons.

This is so important to me.

Actually hatebros, “survival of the fittest” means you have to make as many friends as possible in one lifetime. Naruto understands Darwinism better than you.
