I'm going to treat this as an ask :)))

I'm not sure if you wanted pre breakup content of GTOP being obvious and cute too (that was their most obvious era besides GD&TOP vol.1 and whatever their strategy was around and after the release of Zutter (THE WAY I HAD TO STOP MYSELF FROM INCLUDING ANYTHING OTHER THAN JANUARY 2015 JIYONG CHRIST SOME YEARS ARE JUST SO GOLDEN)) but since I wrote those words in regards to post break up wholesomeness, I'll be focusing on that. Also this isn't in chronological order ToT :)))

a) Yes this is GD being a horny bish but I love it so I had to add it. Anyways now to actually answer the question.

b) Dancing with his husband boyfriend

c) Him mimicking Jiyong after GD puts his hands in the air to cheer for his boyfriend's movie (he was so excited for it.. probably cuz he was gonna be sitting next to Tabi.. and also because in the interviews after all Tabi could say was "Jiyong was very happy, Jiyong was shocked at my body too, Jiyong this Jiyong that" it was CUTE and it was so clear he wanted to see Jiyong be proud of his hard work :''))

d) Watch every fan cam in existence of this performance, TOP was 100% serenading GD and he changed the lyrics of the song (just like he changed the lyrics of pretended) and it melts my HEART oh the GTOP feels :'))

e) Look at Tabi dance and then immediately look at GD to see his reaction ah look at the perfect thumbnail ah Tabi stop being so obviously invested in your boyfriend's happiness TABI STOP

f) THE reason this took so long: this YG press con. There was a gif of this moment and the reaction of Minzy (I believe) to GD&TOP laughing together is all the proof I will ever need is so telling but I couldn't find the gif or the vid so like... here are the pics ToT (Also people were yapping about him being sad cuz of S'ungrat's accident.. baby boo watch the footage we do have, all the members are equally sad but nobody is depressed like GD is when TOP wasn't around because of his scandal in 2017, okay?)

g) This OMG this this THIS.

h) Look at him being all cute to make GD happy oh look at him refusing to let GD's hand go for a second in the first gif oh look at him dancing for GD and GD only oh look at them.. okay yes I am drowning in GTOP feels.

i) Look at him holding that mic so that their arms are on top of each other oh lord so married in love, so subtle, so attentive.

j) And another one of TOP dancing for his baby boo

k) THIS. THIS VID. HE LIKE. TOKE HIS EARBUD OFF. TO LISTEN TO GD SPEAK. LIKE. THAT'S SO SWEET. THAT'S SO SO SWEET. AND ALL THE OTHER AIRPORT STUFF AROUND THIS TIME. It's giving Olivia Rodrigo and Louis Partridge at the airport except TOP can't be as obvious.. *sigh*.

l) This is just an iconic GD&TOP performance like.. Imma just drop this GIF and y'all know which moments are gonna be up here. TOP singing 'Missing You' and convincing my delulu heart it is a GTOP song, their interaction with the child in the audience, them scolding the members for their too long intro, their complementary outfits, ughhhh ToT

m) I knowwww this is GD but like. LIKE.

n) AIA concert again but like UGH so cute

o) The love. Periodt. PERIOD.

There is more but like, I can't come up with it rn lmao. Anywayssssss PLZ LET ME SEE THEM BE THE MOST OBVIOUSLY MARRIED COUPLE SOON GD I AM COUNTING ON YOU.

biology & culture & politics

"...'the entire body of modern science is an attempt to explain phenomena that cannot be experienced directly by human beings'. Metaphors and analogies, in turn, come laced with human stories and values, meaning that no discussion of scientific ideas -- this one included -- can be free of cultural bias." [Richard Lewontin, as cited/paraphrased in Entangled Life by Merlin Sheldrake]

science as an extension of a question+method as an extension of scientists who are humans and are caught up in humanity. Science as a non-political entity is a falsehood, to claim otherwise is naïve. The same phenomena is explained very differently by different people: referring to symbiosis, Jan Sapp (again, in Sheldrake's book) says "[it] behaves like a prism through which our own social values are often dispersed." in some works this is PAINFULLY obvious.

E.g. in Camazine's 1991 paper on self-organizing behavior in bees, Camazine prefaces with laying out the dominant theory on bee organization: the queen is the Leader who Controls where the workers go and what they do, her design for the colony a blueprint that is logically constructed from a central vantage point. The issue with this hypothesis is that worker bees would fill honeycomb with the "wrong thing" according to what we as humans assumed would be the "correct thing" (pollen adjacent to the brood area for easy access). Upon observing this, the assumption was that this was, indeed, doing something "incorrect", and that it was a behavioural aberration on the part of the workers, not the queen. Twofold reflections of the belief that the organisation was competent leader + incompetent workers , AND that further information that may challenge this belief was simply incorrect and not a reason to rethink things.

Camazine dismantles this, providing a more-sensible (if >30years old...) worker-organized system as a framework for bee behavioral scientists to work with. Read here: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/BF00172140

There is more like this. so much more. it rears its ugly head in complex systems in animal behavior, a LOT, often assuming central command where there is none. Whether the relationship between mycorrhizal fungi & their plants is cutthroat or generous is a prominent point of dispute: do the fungi and plants give generously and receive generously in return, or do the plants starve out fungi who aren't productive enough (...vice versa)? Did [x] really first evolve in the now-USA and migrate South, or is this an extension of uneven paleontological interest and dig sites (and education, and oppression,)? & so much more. the mechanisms of life are such that one scientist/political-cultural-angle/general-life-outlook will not suffice.

reading a book on logology and i find these quite beautiful

[madewithmystery]

In my cross-cultural philosophy class this semester, I told my professor that the fragmentary writing of Novalis and Schlegel reminded me of Kafka's diaries.

She agreed and likened Novalis' "unconditioned" or "absolute" from fragment 1 "We seek the unconditioned everywhere and only ever find things," to Kafka's fragment "Lemonade, everything was so infinite."

The quote quickly became somewhat of an inside joke between us and somewhat the rest of the class (those who were familiar with Kafka anyway). The inside joke took root in me and is now an internal response when confronted with life's mysteries or paradoxes, Ironically circling back to Novalis' Logological fragment #100, "Everything is seed."

Most people do not themselves know how interesting they really are, what interesting things they really say. A true representation of themselves — a sketch and assessment of what they say would evoke the greatest amazement in them about themselves and help them to discover in themselves a completely new world.

ok so

this mostly comes out of the interview where daeho's actor draws namgyu

the promt was to draw the most charismatic actor and he drew Jae-won and then he says that he loves namgyu and calls him the best

which is odd to me bc, they have almost no screentime together in s2 and no direct dialogue with eachother, so for him to choose namgyu is weird, right?

out of everyone he acted with he chose Jae-won, not Si-wan, nor Jung-jae, nor Seo-hwan who he shared the most screentime with???

ofc they could've talked bts (they most likely did) but from my understanding they kept the actors separated in groups (ex: se-mi, min-su and nam-gyu' actors were a group and were often together bts and also became close friends), and in the same interview Si-wan says that he didn't share much screentime with Ha-neul so they couldn't interact much

SO actors who didn't share much screentime couldn't interact as much THAT means that for him to find Jae-won/Nam-gyu charismatic he must've have shared lots of screentime with him in s3

he also calls him nam-gyu not Jae-won lmao

there's also that one promotional pic where we see Dae-ho in the bg next to Nam-gyu, but I am unsure if it is actually him

@smysan @logological ty for saying yes even tho it took me a while to reply

does anyone want to read my insane thoughts about how i believe we'll get more daegyu scenes in seson 3

Having to detail the specifics of superhero logology to a new hire like OSHA training is a pretty good well of content, honestly

[medhareads]

SMELL is the largest sensory area in the brain and also the most primitive Very powerful but not articulated—can’t do anything with it (just naming) All accent, no syntax Smelling gives one a knowledge of sensation rinsed clean of thought (unlike hearing and seeing)

Burke described as "(o)ccupying a middle ground between the extreme of unreflexive objectivisim and self-debilitating nihilism”

The rhetoric of religion is described as made of "labrynthine complexities"

"Rhetoric, as Aristotle said, is the art of proving opposites" (I remember Burke saying this, but where and when Aristotle wrote that)
