You’d kill for a cigarette. The thought arrives in your head, an unwelcome tumour, clinging to the only part of your mind to be functioning at full speed. No. You’re not entertaining this thought. Your busted nose wouldn’t welcome the smoke. Nor would your punctured lung. (TO-DO: Smoke. Just the one. Maybe two. You deserve it. Your lungs ache for it.) Stop thinking about it. It makes it hurt more. It’s as if acknowledging the injury makes you long to aggravate it, breathing deeper, faster, heavier- Stop thinking about it. You’re panicking. Remember your voltas. Repeat one in your head until your thoughts and your breaths slow. --- Kim takes a shot meant for Judit Minot, his partner at the 41st. He can't understand why this makes everyone around him so mad.

an interesting linguistics find! so I'm reading this text from 1908 and it keeps referencing "hp" in the context of "not being at full hp" "applying your full hp to a task" etc

and I'm like....... okay that is a perfectly normal way to describe energy and reads totally clear to me, but I KNOW you don't mean hit points/health points which is the first place my brain goes, so what are YOU using hp to mean

and it's not explained in-text, which means it was common enough to not warrant explanation to the 1908 audience, so gotta look elsewhere

horsepower. turns out it's horsepower.

and I'm absolutely FASCINATED that a commonly used initialism from 1908 now stands for something different AND YET the contextual meaning is still the same to a 21st-century reader

I could hand this guy my nintendo switch and he'd be like, ah yes I understand, this ''''pokemon'''' loses horsepower throughout the fight

language is amazing
