To all the millions of people and not that I'm sure will read this post, I have something to tell you.

I wrote a new story:

RomComPar

(Don't mind the mess, I'm not an artist.)

You can read it on Tapas or Honeyfeed

It's kind of a parody of manga romcoms (never would have guessed), and kind of whatever I wanted to write, but the main point is that it's funny

I already posted the first two chapters, and the third will be posted in a couple of days.

Now go read it, multiple times if you could so that it shows up more on the home

I was reading a book about Ancient Mesopotamia, and came across this mention of the Napoleonic Code:

Over the centuries the law continued to grow, adapting to the changing needs of society as it progressed, from the Napoleonic Code of 1804, which legalized the reforms of the French Revolution

Source: Samuel Noah Kramer, Cradle of Civilization

The book is about what is believed to be the first civilization, and how it’s own developments (writing, urbanization, law, trade, etc) have impacted and laid the foundation for societies to this day. Really amazing to see how history is all connected.

[haggishlyhagging]

In a period in which there were major changes taking place in property and political relations, the shifting importance of certain issues for lawmakers and compilers can tell us something about an attendant shift in values. The increasing emphasis in Mesopotamian law codes on the regulation of property crimes, the rights and duties of debtors, the control of slaves, and the regulation of the sexual conduct of women tells us that issues of gender, class, and economic power were problematic and demanded definition and that such definition linked these subjects in quite specific ways. Similarly, the severity of punishment for specific crimes is an indication of the values held by the community at the time of the codification of the laws. The Codex Hammurabi exacts the death penalty for: certain kinds of theft; housebreaking; connivance in slave escapes; faulty building construction which results in fatal accidents; black magic; kidnapping; brigandage; rape; incest; for causing certain kinds of abortions; and for adultery committed by wives.

有口難言

The first one is from a peom, 醉睡者(zuì shuì zhě; a drunk sleeping person) by 蘇東坡(sū dōng pō) in 宋朝(song dynasty).

有道难行不如醉, 有口难言不如睡.

if it's difficult to act then be drunk, if it's difficult to say then just sleep.

先生醉卧此石间, 万古无人知此意.

I lie on the gravels, the reason why, no one would know.

This is as the title said, about a person who's drunk. The poet was talented but hapless. Mostly lamenting about his situation. Its literal meaning is, I have mouth but difficult to say.

In here, I think Wen kexing told that idiom not only to Zhao jing but himself as well, just the place where they were, has changed. Wen kexing was difficult to say before but now it is Zhao jing.

眾叛親離

This is from 詩經(shi jing; Classics of poem), it is in one of the chapter, 國風(guo feng). Also it has 160 peaces of poem, and this is from 邶風(Bei feng; bei nation's fork song). The title is 擊鼓(ji gu; Drumming). It was also on episode 25 However, it is not the poem but interpretation of the poem by 鄭玄(zhèng xuán).

于嗟闊兮 不我活兮

Oh, we are parted, we aren't together.

【鄭玄 箋】 箋雲：州籲阻兵安忍，阻兵無眾，安忍無親，眾叛親離。

鄭玄 said, 州吁(zhōu xū) became unruly with military forces, doing massacre. Because of that no one was close to and followed. The speaker of the poem is a loosen remnant, he just want to go back home. So 州吁 doesn't have much people to fight for him. The followers betrayed and the close friends had left.

Zhao jing was cruel to his follwers, no wonder nobody comes to save him.

孤立無援

This is used very commonly but I couldn't find its origin. It seems it's not really old one like from before century but it has been used widely spoken.

Its literal meaning is, stand alone without any help. That's the meaning of it and it is used for. It also intends that there's no one can help or there will be any help in the future. It can describe one's situation or place, even location. Loneliness it is.
