They’re cheaper than the alternatives, acceptable to the neighbors, and successful among people who were living on the street.

Some extremely sad news to share - Mangaka Hinako Ashihara, best known in the US for her shoujo work like Sand Chronicles and Forbidden Dance (originally Angel's Kiss in Japan), has died from suspected suicide. Her latest series in Japan, Sexy Tanaka-san, has recently gotten a live-action drama series. But behind the scenes, the production has been riddled with problems. Ashihara had expressed in a now-deleted blog post the scripts where not what she was promised out of the adaptation, which she later apologized for, saying she hadn't meant to sound like she was attacking the staff of the TV show.
People speculate that all these issues most likely lead to feelings of despair, though we don't know the full details and possibly never will. Whatever happened, it is a true tragedy and Ashihara will be deeply missed.

One of the more interesting things, as I slowly read my way through the Discworld series, is how specific they are.
No one else could have written the books I've read except a person living through the latter half of the 20th century. No one in the 1850s or the 1950s or the 2020s could have told jokes in quite the same way, on topics as diverse as shopping malls, rude earthworks, Morris dances, sword and sandal movies, movies in general, computers, academia, quantum, gender and changing expression of that gender, etc. It is in some ways a sort of artifact of the late 20th century---largely because that's when the books were written, but also because I suspect Pratchett was a collector of shiny facts and liked working them into his writing.
And of course, I grew up with the same references (or, at least, was reading Pratchett at the right time to figure out what he was referencing) so it works marvelously on me.
Which makes me wonder....what's the 21st century equivalent? Is there a writer out there who trenchantly and amusingly referencing tiktok? Is that even possible in the modern understanding of lit? Are there writers who manage to integrate facebook intelligently and cleverly into their prose---not as 'found media' (which is fine, but not what Pratchett is doing) but describing the human experience of being on facebook, and how that connects with the whole experience of being human at all?

now i’m just thinking about sand and talay bonding over similar music tastes.. lol

only friends and pacing
i think that this series is unfortunately falling into the classic pacing problems just a bit. all of the (mostly valid) criticisms that i've seen so far most likely wouldn't be as big of an issue if the show was paced slightly better.
boeing's role feels unnecessary and pointless? if he had been introduced earlier in ep 8 or 9, the events he's causing would have had a longer lasting impact and relevance.
the whole atom and cheum thing? if that scene had been longer and had more dialog from the both of them, there would have been more of a opportunity for atom to really face the consequences and for the message of his plot line to not come off as weird as it did. (i also think cheum's reaction was in character unfortunately but perhaps there could have been a moment where atom tells her not to forgive him and it was really fucked up what he did. could be bit of a growth for cheum as well.)
sand's reluctance to fully reject boeing? again if he had shown up earlier or if we had just gotten more verbal exposition about boeing, we might have more complete understanding of sand and boeing's relationship. therefore, them meeting again would have more impact.
