Someone on X asks what the writing on these beautiful Shinto toriii gates means. A Japanese user, unwilling to kill the magic and inform them these are the names of individual & corporate shrine donors, replies, "There are things best left unknown."

Best understood as a situation and a trend *hitting home* with a type of consumer that tends to be pretty satisfied with their options. www.ign.com/articles/opinion-hardware-price-increases-have-video-games-facing-an-existential-crisis?utm_source=bluesky

I return a lot to de Romilly’s observation in her book on Thucydides, where the end-state of imperial politics is inability to coexist because that requires constraint, and disaffected imperial citizens wed their ego to the state’s imperial power and experience its constraint as a loss of freedom.
