Had #tsengzack feels last night, had to write a little haiku (I’m sorry)

He seeks a lost smile
Fallen beneath autumn rain
Thoughts of could-have-beens

腐女子というものは、実に不思議な生き物である。彼女たちは、己とは何の血縁も利害もない二人の男の幸福を、まるで遠い親戚の婚礼を見る老猫のような目で見守っている。原作にその片割れが少し登場しただけで「生きていた」と泣き、二人が同じ画面に収まれば「同じ空気を吸った」と震える。会話を交わせばそれは記念日、肩が触れたなら祝祭、目が合ったなら建国、名前を呼んだなら天地創造である。

人間というものは、普通、自分の幸福にすら鈍い。

飯を食い、眠り、金を稼ぎ、愚痴をこぼしながら、己の人生を雑に扱う。

ところが腐女子は違う。

自分とは無関係の誰かの幸福に、己の情熱を注ぎ込むのである。

これは単なる妄想ではない。

むしろ、原作という硬い岩盤の隙間から、わずかに滲み出る水滴を見つける、静かな修行に近い。

「あの台詞はなぜ彼に向けられたのか」

「あの沈黙には何が含まれていたのか」

「あの別れ際の視線は、友情だけで片づけてよいのか」

普通の読者が読み飛ばす一瞬に、彼女たちは人生を読む。

作者が意図したかどうかなど、もはや些細な問題である。

なぜなら物語とは、作者が書いた瞬間に作者だけのものではなくなるからだ。

読者の心に入った時点で、そこに別の命が宿る。

そして、もし原作が彼らを幸せにしないなら、彼女たちは筆を取る。

「ならば、せめて私が幸せにしてやる」

この一念である。

報われぬ者に朝食を食べさせ、戦場で別れた者を同じ部屋に帰らせ、言えなかった言葉を言わせ、抱きしめられなかった腕を伸ばさせる。

公式が描かなかった幸福を、自分の時間と睡眠と精神を削って補完する。

まことに恐ろしい愛である。

しかも彼女たちは、ただ妄想するだけでは終わらぬ。

円盤を買い、グッズを買い、コラボカフェに行き、アクリルスタンドを並べ、ぬいを連れて旅に出る。推しの存在証明のためなら、財布の紐など最初から存在しなかったかのように開く。

しかし、あれは搾取されているだけではない。

彼女たちは札束を叩きつけながら、こう叫んでいるのである。

「この子たちを生かせ」

「この関係性を軽んじるな」

「我々は見ているぞ」

「ここに需要があるぞ」

これは祈りであり、投票であり、供物であり、圧である。

腐女子の凄さとは、恋愛脳などという浅い言葉では到底足りぬ。

彼女たちは、存在しないかもしれない幸福を信じ、存在してほしい関係性に名を与え、誰にも頼まれていないのに物語の隙間へ灯をともす者たちである。

他人の幸福を願うことは、簡単なようでいて難しい。

ましてや、それが自分には手の届かぬ紙の上、画面の向こう、原作の余白にいる者たちであればなおさらだ。

だが腐女子は願う。

彼らが笑ってほしい。

彼らが救われてほしい。

彼らが互いの隣で、もう少しだけ穏やかに息をしてほしい。

その願いが、二次創作となり、考察となり、課金となり、界隈となり、時に文化となる。

今という時代、アルゴリズムは大きな声と速い反応を好む。短く、強く、即座に感情を揺さぶるものを、獣のように嗅ぎ分けて人々の前に差し出す。

だが腐女子たちは、そんな獣の鼻をすり抜けて、静かに、しつこく、物語の奥へと潜っていく。

腐女子とは、妄想の民ではない。

報われなかった感情を、この世で一番しつこく弔い、かつ祝福する者たちである。

彼女たちは今日も原作の一コマを拡大し、台詞の余白を覗き込み、財布を握りしめながら言うのだ。

「大丈夫。公式がやらないなら、私が幸せにする」

その姿は、もはや読者ではない。

物語の外側に立つ、もう一人の神である。

彼女たちは、アルゴリズムが好む雷鳴の向こうで、静かに雨音を降らせ続けている。

その雨は、すぐに目立つものではない。

しかし、確実に誰かの心の土を潤し、いつか小さな花を咲かせる。

I read through the entire long FF7 Revelation Denfamico interview with Hamaguchi. Here are some huge revelations (pun intended 😏) about the game and what we know so far, translated/summarized by me:

-Player choice will have consequences unlike Rebirth, and this will affect the storytelling of the game. Each player might end up with a completely different experience.

-The Highwind airship will be available from the beginning of the game

-The wear system (jobs) will also be unlocked early on in the game.

-New stories will be told regarding places not explored much in the OG

-There are a lot of areas you can access with the Highwind early on, but you might not be able to proceed since enemeries are incredibly strong. They want players to have the feeling of "what should I do first?"

-The scale of the 'open world' feel of the game has greatly expanded

-Vincent gameplay allows him to switch between human form and beast mode with one button. There is no time limit, similar to how Yuffie uses her shuriken mode.

-Cid is very adept at aerial combat

-Vincent and Cid have synergy elements as well as with other characters too.

-Zack will have even more scenes in Part 3 and plays an important role

-The idea of multiple timelines is conveyed through Zack's presence and his part of the story

-The replacement VA for Reno has been decided, and Reno and the Turks will have a lot of screentime in this game.

-Wutai is incredibly fleshed out this time around, and the Turks will also be a part of it. Wutai will have a very political storyline involved.

-Midgar is back in Part 3 and you can explore it again, and you may even encounter some Deepground characters as well...

-Rocket Town is indeed in the game. Hamaguchi says they actually wanted it to show up in Rebirth, but they decided to have it in Revelation instead. It will be accessible towards the latter part of the story

-The underwater area will appear in Revelation, but he can't delve into details just yet

-Hamaguchi says that OG FF7's Knights of the Round summon was something that came up in discussions in every part of the FF7 Remake series. They are currently developing the content to be worthy of its epicness, so he tells fans to look forward to seeing how it will be shown in the game.

-FF7 Revelation does indeed have an ending, and it is one that Hamaguchi is proud of that serves as a conclusion to a series that has taken more than ten years. As for what that ending will be, you'll just have to experience it yourself.

-The affinity system from Rebirth will be different in Revelation. More focus will be put to some extent for all characters to flesh them out properly.

-If you want to learn more about a certain character, you will be able to do so in a way that will deliver a different experience than the one in Rebirth.

-Hamaguchi doesn't really like the concept of multiple endings and as a creator wants to deliver a confident ending to the FF7 Remake series; HOWEVER, player choice in Revelation will heavily affect what outcome you get that actually changes the storytelling of the game.

-Mini games will not be less in number, but they are toning down the difficulty for players who had issues with them in Rebirth

-The slap fight between Scarlet and Tifa is indeed still in the game and will be a mini game lol

-The theme of FF7 Revelation is "resolve." Everyone has followed the journey of Cloud and his friends for almost a decade at this point, and the story is filled with determination as it heads to its finale. The development team has put their resolves into delivering something truly great for everyone to enjoy.

Scientists have identified a reversal of the long-standing Flynn effect—the roughly 200-year trend of rising average intelligence (measured via IQ and cognitive tests) across generations.

For the first time in modern recorded history, Generation Z (born roughly 1997–2012) shows lower performance than previous generations in key cognitive domains, including attention, memory, literacy, numeracy, executive function, problem-solving, and general IQ—despite spending more years in formal education than ever before.

Neuroscientist and educator Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath, PhD, MEd, testified before the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation on January 15, 2026, highlighting this shift. In his written testimony, he stated that cognitive development in children across much of the developed world has stalled or reversed over the past two decades, with declines evident in international assessments (e.g., PISA, TIMSS) and other large-scale data starting around the mid-2000s and accelerating post-2010.

Horvath attributes the primary driver not to reduced schooling, but to the widespread integration of digital screens and educational technology (EdTech) in classrooms. He argues that human brains evolved for deep, focused learning through face-to-face interaction and sustained attention, not fragmented skimming or constant task-switching encouraged by devices.

Key points from his testimony include:

- Teens now spend over half their waking hours on screens, with significant portions in school involving computers or tablets—often leading to off-task behavior and shallower processing.

- Evidence from meta-analyses and national/international studies shows a consistent pattern: higher classroom screen exposure correlates with weaker outcomes in reading, math, science, and higher-order reasoning.

- Digital tools may aid narrow, repetitive skill practice in controlled settings, but in core academic contexts, they tend to reduce depth of understanding, retention, and critical thinking.

Horvath describes this as a "structural mismatch" between human cognition and how digital platforms are designed (to capture and fragment attention), warning that unchecked EdTech adoption risks long-term harm to workforce skills, innovation, and societal reasoning.

I love Pokemon, as a world. I love seeing mundane every day life, not everything has to be an epic adventure. I think this short by HMCH Anime Studio has been the best portrayal of the Pokemon world ever made and I’d give anything to see more of the world like this 😭

Poland won't applaud Trump’s vanity project, the Nobel Peace Prize.

Today a major diplomatic row broke out between the U.S. and Poland because Włodzimierz Czarzasty (the Speaker of the Sejm) took a very public stand against Donald Trump.

The catalyst was a formal request from U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson and Israeli Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana, asking international leaders to co-sign a nomination for Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize.

Czarzasty flatly refused.

U.S. Ambassador Tom Rose responded by blacklisting Czarzasty, declaring that the U.S. Embassy would have "no further dealings, contacts, or communications" with him effective immediately.

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk joined the fray, telling the U.S. Ambassador that "allies should respect, not lecture, each other.

Roman Giertych then wrote a letter (see in the comments), escalating the rhetoric by comparing the demand for the Nobel Prize to the vanity of the Emperor Nero.

Here is what Włodzimierz Czarzasty said:

Włodzimierz Czarzasty: “Building new platforms like the 'Peace Council' by the United States is, in my opinion, deceptive. We must strengthen the European Union, NATO, the UN, and the WHO. Our security lies there.
President Trump, in my opinion, destabilises these organisations by representing a policy of force and conducting transactional politics. This often breaks principles, values, and international law.
His interpretation of history—for example, regarding the participation of Polish soldiers on missions—and his instrumental treatment of other territories, like Greenland, means I will not support the Nobel request for President Trump. He does not deserve it."
