Có ba điều lấy đi nước mắt của tôi khi đọc những tư liệu về Leslie Cheung (Trương Quốc Vinh):

1, Bức ảnh iconic portrayal của Leslie Cheung nắm tay Daffy Tong trong một đêm tối mùa đông.

2, Giây phút Leslie Cheung gieo mình tự vẫn.

3, Bức ảnh trên.

Ta sẽ giữ nụ cười người thuở đó

Làm lửa hồng sưởi ấm suốt trăm năm*

Mường tượng cảnh Leslie Cheung kết liễu cuộc đời mình đã là một nỗi đau, nghĩ tới cảnh Daffy ghi lòng tạc dạ Leslie suốt đời suốt kiếp lại là một nỗi đau rất khác nữa. Người ở lại luôn là người đau lòng nhất. Phải sống cho phận mình, và sống luôn cả phận người-đã-ra-đi.

Daffy đã cảm thấy như thế nào khi phải một mình chứng kiến người mình yêu thương hết mực ra đi trong đau đớn tủi hờn? Có lẽ cuộc sống của người-ở-lại tại thời điểm đó rất khó khăn. Còn đau gì hơn nữa, bằng tình yêu đi qua?!

What’s next? Have to spend time to watch ‘Farewell My Concubine’ (Bá Vương Biệt Cơ)

* Trích thơ Nguyễn Thiên Ngân. Hồi trước đọc câu này của Nguyễn Thiên Ngân thấy ưng lắm, nhưng thời điểm mình thấy ưng thì nụ cười làm mình điêu đứng chính là nụ cười của bạn Demoiselle Crane. Còn từ rày trở đi thì câu thơ đúng với trái tim Đường Hạc Đức dành cho Trương Quốc Vinh.

rewatched kung fu panda 1st of all great movie. 2nd of all crane looks fucked up in terms of how cranes go

#who would have guessed. that i would notice how the cranes look now #he's supposed to be a black-necked crane which i do see the resemblance but he's lacking the most quintessential part of the crane. being #the red spot.. on their head.. which blues and demoiselles dont have but every other species does #also his beak is huge and it makes him look storkish

23/05/2023-Starlings, Cardinal beetle and more at Lakeside and home

Pictures taken today in this set: 1, 2 and 10. Gorgeous and shiny juvenile Starlings in the back garden and next door’s. I had been waiting to see some this year, not certain they’d come due to the strong corvid presence out the back so far this spring - Magpie and Jackdaw took some of the young birds in 2021 -, so I was over the moon to spot some of these precious birds. I loved watching and listening to them squawk as their parent’s brought them food, it’s always exciting in a spring to see them. 3. The lovely flower bed on the way to Lakeside at lunch time with ruby poppies looking nice. 4. Some of my first Lakeside orchids of the year at the shore of beach lake, common spotted I believe, one of a few seasonal delights I was hoping to and did see today. 5. Male Mallards on the jetty at Lakeside. 6. A sumptuous crimson Carindal beetle, what a delight to see. These are such pure and ravishing insects that I like seeing. 7. Moorhen on a nest at Lakeside. 8. Some pink bluebells just still going in the woods. 9. Greylag Geese at Lakeside. 

It was great to see Beautiful Demoiselles dancing over Monks Brook and Blue-tailed and Common Blue damselflies well again at lunch time as my strong run of damselflies in this weather continues. Great Crested Grebe on the nest, Feral Pigeon, Starlings including lined up on a fence, Swifts, Canada Goose goslings, Speckled Wood, Holly Blue and a dashing Red Admiral were other highlights on the walk. My first Lakeside meadow crane’s-bill of the year a flower I love, plantain at Lakeside and the flower bed, yellow iris and buttercups carpeting the landscape a nice yellow, broad-leaved clover, cuckooflower and some cowslips still going were other nice flowers to see. I saw Collared Dove, House Sparrow and Goldfinch well at home too.

Disney Villains as Birds

This idea just came in mind combining two fields I’m interested. Not just looking for the color but appearance, feeling and behavior also matters.

Very personal opinion you may disagree but friendly discussion welcomed :)

HERE WE GO!

the list of incidents in the background

This is the list of incidents that appears in the background on TV, in the 10/4 cinematic with Sae, the SIU Director, and Akechi. Let's take a look at them, one by one, to see (some of?) what's been going on.

バス暴走死傷事故 basu bousou shishou jiko reckless bus driving accident that caused injuries and deaths

This is explicitly described as a bousou—the word meaning "runaway" or "rampage" that the original name for "psychotic breakdown" uses, and the original name for Call of Chaos uses. In this context, it means reckless driving. Also shishou is "deaths and injuries"—this is explicitly a fatal accident. The game wants us to know that, even if nobody died in that subway crash, people have died in these mysterious incidents.

コンビニ爆発物事件 konbini bakuhatsumono jiken convenience store bombing incident

What? Did someone bomb a convenience store? Well, maybe not. If you're following the news, the recent incident where someone threw a smoke bomb at PM Kishida Fumio is being described as a bakuhatsumono jiken. So this could be relatively tame.

Or it might not be. The Manchester Arena bombing, where people leaving an Ariana Grande concert were blown up and many died, is also a bakuhatsumono jiken. It could go either way.

トンネル内放火事件 tonneru nai houka jiken arson inside a tunnel incident

Short and sweet. Could be another subway incident, but since it's not explicitly mentioned as being one, it's more likely a road tunnel or something? Fires in tunnels can be devastating, of course.

ヨットハーバー燃料漏出 yotto haabaa nenryou roushutsu marina fuel leak

This sounds like another one that could have been quite dramatic. Marinas tend to be places where rich and powerful people hang out, so this is likely to do with someone being explicitly targetted?

翼田リムジンバス突入事故 yokuta (?) rimushinbasu totsunyuu jiko Yokuta (?) Airport shuttle bus crash accident

Hahaha, this one is fun. First, a "limousine bus" is an airport bus—the ones that run you out to the plane. The airport is a spoof of Haneda Airport. 羽田 "Haneda", to Yokuta (?)'s 翼田—they've changed the first kanji for another one that means "wing".

A totsunyuu jiko is a car crash, but seems to be specifically a crash where the vehicle crashes into a fixed obstacle? So some poor driver smashed their shuttle bus into a wall.

新都市交通あねはづる事故 shin toshi koutsuu anehazuru jiko Anehazuru Monorail case

This one is a P3 reference. shin toshi koutsuu—"New Urban Transport", a term for a "people mover" or monorail. The Shin Toshi Koutsuu Anehazuru is the monorail in P3.

We don't know what happened there, but this may be the only indication that anything happens outside Tokyo in P5 (besides Shido getting his drama on with Joker).

An anehazuru, BTW, is a type of bird, the demoiselle crane.

内閣部サイバー攻撃事件 naikakufu saibaa kougeki jiken Cabinet Office cyberattack incident

This one is interesting because it's so unlike the rest—though there are a lot of data leaks during the Medjed arc, which suggests the conspiracy is somehow taking the opportunity to carry them out. Cyberattacks certainly don't seem in Akechi's line (though he might be responsible for locating worthwhile targets?), so this might just have been swept in with the accidents and "incidents".

An attack on the Cabinet Office, of course, makes it a political attack, and exceptionally likely to be Shido-motivated somehow.

毒薬混入事件 dokuyaku kon'nyuu jiken poison adulteration incident; poisoning incident.

The last on the list: someone, or several someones, were poisoned.

so what do we know

While only one of these, the top one, is explicitly described as fatal, it doesn't take much of a stretch to see that many of them could have been fatal—and the fact that they aren't all called "fatal accident" doesn't make them necessarily not fatal.

Plus, the list fills the screen. These are unlikely to be all the cases; they're the most recent ones, or the ones the studio thought most worthy of note.

I would like to offer this resource for therians, an extensive list of all of Sir David Attenborough’s nature documentaries that are available on soap2day, and a full list of what species* they each (notably, prominently) feature the natural behaviors of, separated by episode, and omitting species that were only shown dead, juvenile or being predated on. This took me a while (I have been working on it since Prehistoric Planet’s release) because I did in fact have to watch every single series in full in order to list all the species and the episodes are around 50 minutes long, but enjoy.

Long post ahead:

Most of these shows have closed captioning, which is why I’ve picked soap2day. Planet Earth is the only one that doesn’t. I did not include Dynasties and Dynasties II because each episode only features one species.

Thank you to Birch (@ambiguousmutt​) for his help (he watched about half of the episodes) so I didn’t have to do it individually. Credit goes to him as well.

*Sometimes Attenborough doesn’t say the specific species and I was too busy trying to get through the episodes to identify it. In those cases I just put the most specific name I could.
