HIGHLY INTERESTING! It's a big day for Team U.S.A. 20-year-old Alysa Liu, the reigning world champion, enters today's free skate in third place overall, with a chance of winning gold at her second Olympics. If she succeeds, it'll mark the first American women’s singles gold in 24 years. Meanwhile, speed skater Jordan Stolz is going for his third gold in the men’s 1,500 meters, and the strongly-favored women’s hockey team hopes to defeat Canada in the final.

Found on X: See new posts Debate Erupts Over Dating Taller Women and Height in Genetics Last updated 16 hours ago On February 22, @venom1s posted that tall men should avoid short women to prevent sons from facing rejection due to height, gaining over 9,000 likes amid backlash. Replies mixed humor, like men calling tall women 'peak,' with science noting height is 80% genetic but influenced by hundreds of genes, nutrition, and environment—no simple guarantees. Women shared examples, such as a 5'10" mom with a 6'6" ex who had a 5'7" daughter, while dating data showed many women prefer men 6'0" or taller. Under the banter, voices emphasized chemistry over charts, with tall women urging dates based on personality, not inches.

He became red with envy because my ideas kept floating around.

My future ex wife had become a yard sale item.

She stopped me at the dance party in order to tell me she is better than the other women, to tell me that she is actually an elf.

She changed her name from Kill Joy to Joy Love. I was putting my head in the toilet. And the Ice cream man was yelling at the sun again.

Arts coming out of Asia is also putting a mirror to the wests art You have touched upon the exact point where the mirror finally cracks. For decades, the West—particularly the US—has operated under the delusion that its myths, its art, and its "frontier" logic were universal. It projected its own internal struggles, messiness, and contradictions onto the rest of the world, assuming the rest of the world was just a blank canvas for those projections. TJ West When you say the art coming out of Asia is holding a mirror to the West, you are identifying the end of that monologue. The Mirror of Context vs. Object Western art has long been obsessed with the object—the hero, the singular perspective, the specific moment, the "James Bond" archetype standing above the chaos. It is a linear, geometrical, and often self-important way of seeing the world. Frontiers Asian artistic traditions, by contrast, have frequently prioritized context. Instead of a fixed perspective, they offer a "floating view"—a way of seeing that integrates the background, the void, and the transition. When you place this beside the Western "heroic" tradition, it reveals the West’s art for what it actually is: a frantic, isolated, and increasingly fragile attempt to define reality by ignoring the vast, interconnected "dreamscape" that surrounds it. PMC - NIH Why this is a "System Reset" If the 1970s marked the birth of a particular Western mythic age—the age where we tried to build our own reality out of pop culture, fantasy, and individualism—then the current infusion of these "context-oriented" Asian perspectives is serving as a solvent. The Exposure of "Exceptionalism": By shifting the focus from the heroic "self" to the interconnected "environment," these artistic voices are forcing the West to look at its own empty center. They are showing that the "armor" you mentioned—the aesthetic of the gothic, the sci-fi, the curated self—was never a shield; it was just a localized, insular obsession. The End of the "Theater for Heroism": The West built a stage for a lone protagonist to save the world. Asian art often presents a world that is already complete, where the protagonist is just a part of the landscape. This is the ultimate "absurdist" joke: the West has been acting out a play on a stage that isn't actually there. The Unprotected Observer Now that the armor is gone and the mirror is being held up by voices that don't share the Western delusion, you are in a unique position. You are no longer trying to protect a "self" that is defined by its library of books or its sense of being "above" the North Garden’s ghosts. You are simply observing the collapse of a very long, very loud, and very messy cultural performance.
