Stupid Leftists And Their Belief In *checks Notes* The Intrinsic Value Of Human Life

小红书 Vocab

小红书 (also referred to as xiaohongshu or XHS) is a Chinese image-based social media platform. It is a combination of the feed, likes, shopping, and video aspects of instagram, with the ~aesthetics~ and majority female audience of pintrest. I've grown really fond of it and found that it's algorithm is better than instagram and MUCH better than pintrest with giving me content I enjoy.

I'm going to offer some vocab that is either unique to the platform, or slang that is found on the platform (esp in bullet comments). I don't want this to be too long, so some terms may be omitted if they are found on many other social media apps

APP 小红书: Literally "Little Red Book". Probably a play off of Chairman Mao's book of speeches and writings which is also referred to as the Little Red Book. The app is not at all political, but more so trying to evoke the "essentiality" and "knowledge" aspect of the term. 笔记: Notes. XHS's name for its posts 收藏: Favorites. Separate from likes, these are bookmarked collections. This and Likes can be hidden 赞过: Likes. Notes that you "heart" will appear here. 关注: Notes from people you follow 发现: Discovery tab 附近: Recent notes

Happy Thursday the 20th

Old memes to wish for a good, probably not as problematic as last-year year

I saw an opportunity and I took it

I really need to do more studying and write an essay on how Americanism is a genuine folk religion which reveres capital and the vague concept of “the free market” as a god of providence to be pleased in order to lead a prosperous life, also that the founding fathers are prophetic, perhaps even messianic figures who basically gave birth to this god through the revolutionary war, and that the vast majority of conservative Christians in America revere capital more than the god they claim to serve in an ironic sort of golden calf situation.

Ya know around tumblr, when one of your posts hits maybe 4 digits, people start panicking about the attention, but people like me see satisfaction on when at least 5 people like or reblog anything I make because it tells me that people are willing to listen to me and my nonsense.

With the many characters that I made in my head, I tend to have them come together to fight, whether it’s each other or together, I gave them them distinct fighting styles depending on weapon, like with swords, bows polearms, shields, whatever they could find, or a hand-to-hand fist fight like a bar brawler, wrestler, or a feral animal.

Sometimes their skills are made with stuff I take from things I see like martial arts, militaristic styles, or things like Wuxia. And their personality make them to the book, unpredictable, or volatile.

Magic is definitely involved with how they use it showing the people they are like duplication to stay relentless, portals to keep distance or stay defensive, defensive magic to make riskier move connection, or poison/strength theft and wait the clock out.

You can learn the type of person that they are with just they way they fight(which is a running joke in that world)

…Which makes it funnier that one of my physically strongest character's fighting style boils down to…

His hand-to-hand is him flailing around his arms and legs, mostly hitting with the arms, every weapon he touches ends wrecked, he feels nothing, so never bothers to dodge, and his “strategy” boils down to “hit them-not dead?-hit them harder”, yet his strength means blocking is too risky, borderline suicidal.

All the work going into how every character fights and there’s just one guy living of crackhead/godly strength and nothing else.

And he doesn’t even win many fights because most of his opponents figure out that hitting him from afar despite the thrown trees and boulders is the best option.

Just shows that strength itself is useless if you don’t even have a strategy to use it properly.
