this image accidentally illustrates the inner mind of the avg fandomite and explains why so many modern fandoms seem to hate the media they're meant to be fans of.
for them, art only exists as content they can project onto. the authors existence is seen as a mere inconvenience.

Seriously, there is nothing in the world that says “credulous midwit” more than thinking LLMs are conscious.
It means your grasp of science, computing & AI is non-existent, and your psychological boundary between fantasy and reality is perilously thin.

Ironically, I learned this in sales. Almost everyone wants to experience thoughtfulness and romanticismbut don't. To get more meetings, you have to stand out more. Do this by researching people, very personal messages, and giving them things that they'd appreciate.
I live by the Universal Girlfriend Theory which is my theory that everyone wants to be treated like a Girlfriend in the sense they just want to be taken on a fun date they didn’t plan and for you to buy them dinner. this applies to women, men, parents, in laws, grandparents, siblings, Everyone. When in doubt I just buy someone expensive flowers and chocolate and it literally has never failed me as a tactic to surprise and delight. huge life unlock

Finally the position that will piss everyone off: the minimum wage is good because it eliminates unproductive companies and positions

"stay with them through ups & downs."
downs are NOT:
-cheating
-disrespect
-abuse: verbal, mental, physical, spiritual
-manipulation
-gaslighting
-control
downs are:
-financial hardships
-health issues
-tragic death/injury
-rough points in a relationship (arguing, lack of
intercourse, losing the "spark")
-trouble keeping/finding individuality in a relationship
stop normalizing putting yourself through trauma trying to prove to somebody that you love them

Regarding Clair Obscur - We believe sometimes we have to pick our battles. A few placeholder assets that were immediately patched out does not make an entire game AI slop.
Our account is about recognizing, appreciating and highlighting the strengths of human creativity. If a game is 99.99% a human crafted labor of love, we do not believe 0.01% of GenAI (if it even qualifies as that much) is worth slandering the entire game over.
Doing that gives permission to AI Boosters to do what they do best - take credit for things they had no hand in. They now take a game that was 99.99% a human crafted labor of love and say "Look at the power of GenAI to make these incredible games possible" when it had no meaningful impact at all.
Obviously we would all always prefer it wasn't used, and the internet is not a place that handles nuance well. But please keep this in mind for the future. We do not believe in witch hunts or hate directed at the hard work of artists or developers.🫖

The problem with the current regime's version of Indonesian nationalism is how it is land-centric, not people-centric.
It's always "Indonesia is rich" or "Indonesia is big".
It's never "Indonesians are smart" or "Indonesians are hard-working".
Sumatra is rich. But what about people who actually live in Sumatra?
According to land-centric nationalism, the answer is "who cares, they can just die in a flood or something".
This is not some hypotheticals. We are observing this happening in real time right now.
The present regime has no use of us actual living people. They only want to dig the land and take the coal.

Unlike natural resources, human resources need to be developed. They need schools, housing, healthcare, security from violent thugs, the certainty of law, cheap logistics and transports system, and access to capital.
Only then can they reach and show their true potentials.
You can dig gold mines with slaves. You can't build automobile factories with slaves.
To build factories, you need massive amounts of competent, empowered engineers and technicians who will demand salary and dignity.
These advanced industrial and technological economies, as history have shown in Europe and today in East Asia, expand vastly larger than primitive natural resources extraction by orders and orders of magnitude. They imperially rule the world.
---
Thugs love resource economies. They can just sit and force the slaves to plant and dig.
Thugs hate industrial economies. The educated, skilled, smart entrepreneurs, managers, and workers who ran the factories hate being bossed around by the thugs and will overthrow them, and will establish a vastly superior new society.
This was what happened in Europe. The thuggish landowning nobility, who accrued wealth from wantonly exploiting farming serfs, was swept away by the steel, cannons, and railroads of the industrial revolution.
When the old aristocracy in Imperial Russia succeeded in crushing peaceful political and economic reform using tyrannical violence, the result was not the preservation of the old order, and thereby victory of the aristocrats, but the annihilation of the aristocratic class in Russia.

A true Indonesian Nationalism, being people-centric instead of land-centric, aspires to unhesitatingly proclaim the following: "Indonesians are smart. Indonesians are hard-working. Indonesians are creative."
If the average Indonesians are still dumb and unskilled, build schools and pay the teachers.
Lynn-Becker claimed that Indonesians are racially inferior low-IQ retards? Disprove it with evidence. Balas dengan karya. Even if it takes another 50 years.
The purpose of the existence of Indonesia, according to the preamble of the 1945 constitution, is to accomplish exactly that. "To make the life of the nation smarter." Mencerdaskan kehidupan bangsa.
"People-centric nationalism". The current regime does not have that. They do not care about the people part. The regime only cares about the land part, because there's coal under it.
Indonesian nationalist ideology of anti-racism is strong but we must strengthen it.
We must be the default example that "low IQ savages" can build Public Transport and Public Order vastly outperforming Western cities.
Different ethnic groups live next to each other in peace.
Discriminated, violent ghettoes like Black ghettoes in American cities and Muslim ghettoes in French cities cannot be allowed to exist in Indonesia's multicultural cities (where 60% of the population lives), whether in housing, school, or transportation.
Such disharmony and purposeless tribal antagonism is violently anathema to the soul and honor of this nation, and non-conducive to the development of both our civic society and industrial economic growth.
In this egalitarian society, both the Betawi Muslim and the Chinese Christian, both the fruit trader and the SCBD sales manager must all take the Rangkasbitung-Tanah Abang 🟢 line, side by side as equals. Those who violate the sanctity of the shared common good is "viraled" and punished.
The "civilized" West is failing to do these, but we must not fail.
The unalterable Preamble to the 1945 Constitution decreed that the Holy Mission of the State is, among others, "to educate the life of this nation". We must transform Indonesia into a developed country, full of citizens educated with developed country behaviors of responsible civility, harmonious order, good governance, and industriousness.
Disharmonious thugs (preman meresahkan) that oppose this holy mission, big or small, must either fall in line and be a good boy, or be industrially exterminated (ditertibkan) under the iron boots and railroads of progress and civilization.

Corporate Rules for Happy Life In 2026
1. Trust nobody.
2. What happens in office, remain in office. Never take office gossips to home and vice versa.
3. Enter office on time, leave on time. Your desktop is not helping improvement in your health.
4. Never make GF/BF and/or brother/sister in office. It will always backfire.
5. Expect nothing. If somebody helps, feel thankful. If not, you will learn to know things on your own.
6. Never rush for position. If you get promoted, congrats. If not, it doesn't matter. You will always be remembered for your knowledge and politeness, not for your designation.
7. Never run behind office stuff. You have better things to do in life.
8. Avoid taking everything on your ego. Your salary matters. You are being paid. Use your assets to get happiness.
9. It doesn't matter how people treat you. Be humble. You are not everyone's cup of tea.
10. In the end nothing matters except family, friends, home, and Inner peace

Indonesians beg about the dissolution of parliament like a parliament dissolution won't send their ass back to an autocratic military cult of personality

Korean here. I know the answer to this.
There are rich Koreans, but they’re relatively rare and almost all of them are people who dared to expand outside the Korean market and system.
If you stay fully inside the Korean system, a lot of your money goes into keeping up with status games, trend-chasing, and social signaling, and whatever you do earn gets taxed aggressively. If your company starts doing well, competitors quickly copy you, or a larger company with more leverage tries to squeeze you out. The ecosystem is brutally fast, but also brutally convergent.
I once had a close friend who was a senior developer at Meta explain his impression of the difference between Korean companies and Silicon Valley companies, and it stuck with me.
In Korea, our demographics and culture is very homogeneous (although recently it is slowly becoming alot more diverse). Korean companies optimize for speed and execution within a very tight cultural context. Everyone shares similar assumptions, tastes, and expectations, so products can be built and iterated incredibly fast. You don’t need endless A/B tests or debates about edge cases because most users respond the same way. When something works, it spreads instantly.
In Silicon Valley, the situation is almost the opposite. Teams are made up of people from wildly different cultural, social, and economic backgrounds, and their users are even more diverse. Intuition doesn’t work as well, so companies are forced to rely on data, experimentation, abstraction, and systems that can generalize across very different types of people. It’s slower and messier, but it produces products that scale globally.
This is probably why Korea isn’t richer than people expect.
When something “hits” in Korea, it hits fast and almost everywhere at once. But Korean companies rarely develop the perspective needed to systematically produce global hits, the only way to make truly massive money. Once something works locally, it gets copied immediately, the total addressable market is small, and margins collapse.
Korea is incredibly good at execution and speed. The West is better at building things that survive diversity and scale. That difference compounds over time.
I'm always surprised why the Koreans didn't get richer
I studied there, I lived there and I don't really have a real strong reason why
They work really hard
I guess one thing that could be a barrier is that in public life nobody can be direct and everything is ruled by unwritten rules of behavior (a lot like Japan) that they can only escape in private settings or when they get drunk
Not being direct slows things down a lot especially in innovation
In Korean startups I remember they'd use English names to avoid the hierarchy that came with Korean names (like you add words to the name for people older or younger than you etc. which would mean you can't rly go against ppl older than you)
In China everyone I meet is hyper direct, pragmatic and very open (kinda like how I try to be on here and IRL)
Maybe that's part of it?

One thing I noticed when I begin to live in the West is how deeply invested white parents are in their children’s development.
Music classes, swimming, coding clubs, weekend sports, summer camps… they learn alongside their kids, show up, sit through practice, research new skills, and plan years ahead.
It’s not magic. It’s a system that gives them the space, time, and support to be present.
Now compare that to many African parents. It’s not that they don’t care.
They care deeply.
But how do you focus on piano lessons when rent is due. How do you think about swimming classes when the cost of food is a daily battle. How do you push a child toward sports when the country has no pathway that guarantees safety or a future.
There’s no structured support, no government cushioning, and most parents are too tired from survival to start exploring “skills development.”
It’s not neglect. It’s economics. It’s the reality of raising children in societies where the parents are still fighting for their own stability.
But even with the limitations, we can still do better. Encourage your kids’ curiosity. Expose them to free resources. Support their talents in small ways. And for our leaders, the responsibility is clear: build systems that make childhood more than survival.
Because when parents are supported, children can finally breathe, grow, and dream.
