Oh how much have things changed

Tbh I think the "but data centers are important infrastructure, not just AI" talking point misses that like

Ok so roads are important infrastructure. A lot of stuff that's important happens on roads. Now, let's imagine that quadrillionaire Matt Stench has decided that the next big tech innovation is the Wide Car. It's a car that takes up six lanes despite seating only one passenger.

The Wide Car is supposed to be the future, and everyone's going to be driving Wide Cars, even though nobody who makes Wide Cars is turning a profit. Employers are offering Wide Cars as an employee benefit, and getting "nah." Some employers are going as far as demanding their employees drive Wide Cars, and the result is that people take time out of their workdays to get in the mandatory gas usage for their Wide Car before driving home in a regular car.

In spite of the fact that the Wide Car is clearly set to fail, there's an enormous push to expand to twelve-lane roads to accommodate a bunch of Wide Cars that simply will not materialize. This is not an organic response to demand, but a speculative investment that amplifies the existing issues with road development for no good reason.

That is the problem.

What I really appreciate about Wei Wuxian's first meeting with Jin Ling is that Jin Ling says, "when I tell my uncle, you're dead!" he uses the word jiujiu, which is "mother's brother."

Coming from a culture that also uses different words depending who the uncle is connected with, and a mostly patriarchal society, it makes so much sense that Wei Wuxian laughed when Jin Ling asked, "Jiujiu? Why jiujiu and not your dad? Who's your jiujiu?" Seeing it through my cultural background goggles, why would a kid's first thought be to involve the maternal uncle in such a petty incident?? You're literally bringing in a person who's likely from a completely different place (sect) than you are. There's also the implied, "is your father/kin so useless you have to involve people from your mother's side?"

I love the part in mdzs so much where wwx is like "hehe jiang cheng hates being unfavourably compared so bad I bet I can make him mad a cut sleeve doesn't want him" and you're like that's ridiculous nobody is that insecure and then it WORKS

one thing i know about lan wangji is that if a baby hands him a toy phone, he’s answering it, stone face and all, but he’s answering it and holding a serious conversation with his internet provider about updating his service

Feeling emotional about WWX and Jin Ling

The leaves rustled and the gentian flowers swished alongside the wind, their scent lingering. Wei Wuxian’s eyes landed on the wooden hallway of the cottage. He could almost see a small child wearing a forehead ribbon sitting in proper posture in front of the house, waiting quietly for the door to open. ↳ @mdzsnet | lan wangji bday event (✿ ˘_˘ )
