Long ass breakdown of the characters, motifs, lore and historical references in New Gods: Yang Jian scene by scene 🧵
I strongly strongly strongly recommend seeing it at the cinema rn, it's well worth the HD experience just for the mindblowing visuals alone.

@awkotacogf13 @Squ15 worldskate, the federation that governs roller skating, oversees only summer sports. It has no association with figure skating or any other winter sports.

@StephieFS @Yoda4ever They were training. The owner was saying “you studied this. Did you forget already?”

@mmt_mark24981 @yuyimei2 這個影片的核心問題是：台灣人的祖先是誰而不是節日傳統的來源。韓國人的祖先依然是韓國人，越南人的祖先依然是越南人。那你的血統又是什麼呢？

@arealmermaid2 @kiragu_maina_ @Eng_china5 Optics matters. Your intent might be neutral, but you added a comparison that changes the tone.
You could’ve said “She looks very young”, “She has a youthful appearance” etc.
It’s got nothing to do with culture, it’s just the way English and connotations works.

@arealmermaid2 @kiragu_maina_ @Eng_china5 By saying she’s not a woman is reductive and infantilizing, and undermines her skill and experience as a full grown adult. Hope that helps.

@Lian1572053 @Gertywood5 @fs_gossips That’s what I said. It wasn’t the tiger-parenting that imbued the discipline in her. She already had it. Which only made high-intensity training not work in her favor.

[tinydog @tinydog365]

@Gertywood5 @fs_gossips Thing is, she’s already self-motivated by nature. That level of rigor in her earlier training was only a detriment to her. If she were allowed to train on her own terms from the beginning, she’s be even more formidable.

@okaythenfuture On the other hand, too many Han people take advantage of China’s DEI system, and are fraudulently declare as ethnic minority despite having 0 ties to that culture. If they truly identify as such, they should start with learning the language.

[tinydog @tinydog365]

@okaythenfuture Mandarin should be mandatory, but it should also be mandatory for ethnic minorities to learn their own language. Because now you have a generation of minority kids that refuse to learn their mother tongue and then when they speak it, it’s with a heavy mandarin accent.

[tinydog @tinydog365]

@okaythenfuture @thiccricefarmer Wait does this mean you can’t take the entire exam in Tibetan, but the Tibetan language segment still requires you to take it in Tibetan? Or is that removed as well? I’m confused.

@JasonElls @WeCanWeMust4All @bdomenech @MeghanMcCain @MsMelChen @realDailyWire But do you understand what the core philosophy of the Olympic movement is? To unite the world through sport by fostering friendship, solidarity, and fair play without discrimination. It is “a celebration of shared humanity, encouraging peaceful coexistence between nations.”

@alvinfoo 2 years ago she suffered a severe hip injury at X Games. She couldn't even walk, but wrote "Pain is temporary" on her hand going into her run. She came away with gold. That same year, Su Yiming had withdrawn from X Games with a sprained ankle.
This is what action sports demands:
