 the dead aren’t lost, and they can continue pursuing their ambitions and growing as people, but the tragedy is that they died at all, that they had to experience that violence and come to terms with existing in the amorphous semi-stasis of ghosts- or just keep living, knowing that they died

Loss of innocence (surely nothing can hurt me), loss of control (this isn’t how it was meant to go), and most cuttingly loss of relevance. The dead in the dreambubbles literally have no more role to play in the story.

The Four Gentlemen have been used in Chinese painting since the time of the Song dynasty (960–1279) because of their refined beauty, and were later adopted elsewhere in East Asia by artists in Korea, Japan, and Vietnam.

As they represent the four different seasons (the plum blossom for winter, the orchid for spring, the bamboo for summer, and the chrysanthemum for autumn), the four are used to depict the unfolding of the seasons through the year.

The Three Friends of Winter (岁寒三友; Tuế hàn tam hữu; 세한삼우;  歳寒三友) is an art motif that comprises the pine, bamboo, and plum. 

The Chinese celebrated the pine, bamboo and plum together, as they observed that these plants do not wither as the cold days deepen into the winter season unlike many other plants.

Known by the Chinese as the Three Friends of Winter, they later entered the conventions of East Asian culture. Together they symbolize steadfastness, perseverance, and resilience. They are highly regarded in Confucianism and as such represent the scholar-gentleman’s ideal.

The Flowers of the Four Seasons (四季名花; Tứ quý danh hoa; 四季の花) are a group of flowers found in Chinese, Japanese and Vietnamese art and culture which represent the four seasons, consisting of the orchid (spring), the lotus (summer), the chrysanthemum (autumn) and the plum blossom (winter). 

They contain three of the elements of the Four Gentlemen.

Canada’s northernmost capital city, Iqaluit, briefly turned pink and purple on January 12th, 2016. A CBC meteorologist explained that the incident was most likely due to a phenomenon called light scattering, which is caused by the refraction of the setting sun on particles in the atmosphere. Neither of these two pictures have been edited.

It’s like when I was a kid I had two furbies and when you put them next to each other they’d just natter nonsensically past one another for a bit and then at some point one would abruptly recognize the other with its furby sensor or w/e and it would shout “DANCE!” and the other one would flap its ears and reply “HEY, DANCE” and then, in perfect unison, they would begin to rock back and forth while chanting “doot doot doo doot doot doo”

Like imagine you go over to your boy's house for dinner and that's across from you while you eat. Like would you say something or just
