Why is the stereotypical Japanophile a geeky teenage girl, anyway? From what I’ve seen, the biggest offenders tend to be adult male NASCAR nerds. I have literally seen Dale Earnhardt memorial katanas for sale - that’s pretty much the apotheosis of bizarre Western Japanophilia right there.

Dale Earnhardt is a terrible material to make katanas from. He barely got folded once, much less thousands of times.

There's no obligation to Respect Other People's Beliefs regardless of what those beliefs are, but as a matter of practice you do need to get comfortable with framing arguments in terms of moral precepts you don't necessarily share, because you're never going to live in a world where everyone everywhere has exactly the same moral precepts that you do.

One of the perils of being very widely read is that every so often something in your brain will click and you're like "holy shit, [artist A] and [seemingly unrelated artist B] are probably the same person", and you'll never be able to un-see it, but you can't say anything because they probably keep those identities separate for a reason.

Pettable.

Wouldn't it be fucked up if something was farming humans for our kidney stones.

Sometimes I feel like people who write porn about video game characters and try to keep the dialogue stylistically consistent with that of the source material are operating on a higher level than me. I confess in their place I'd struggle to appreciate the erotic potential of "wowie zowie".

Now, I don't know what character that line refers to specifically. But with that in mind, I know that if just the right hot lady character said that with just the right cadence while getting her holes stimulated, I'd get turned on.

Unfortunately the character in question is mario

have you guys heard of this thing called "actually watching the stuff you put on your netflix list instead of just forgetting about it"? it's really cool.
