things can be successful in what they want to achieve, they can be useful, well-made, thought-out, fitting for what it wants to be. but that isn't perfection.
comment in response to
post
but is that actually achievable in reality? no.
you can't tell me that no-one in the world ever won't find any flaw in anything
you need to acknowledge that while we often say "this is perfect!", it is hyperbolic. there is no perfect relationship, no perfect artwork, no perfect story

the fact that different people view different things/ideals as "perfect" is kind of proof that perfection doesn't even exist because it's in the eye of the beholder whether a thing is even considered "perfect"
the state of perfection is simply utterly unattainable
comment in response to

not to get philosophical, but isn't that if something is perfect, it is lacking any flaws? the strive for perfection may be dynamic, but perfection is an end goal, so per definition static. there comes nothing after perfection.
if it were truly perfect, there'd be nothing anyone could ever critisise

and like, fan translations typically also encourage readers to purchase the raws. of course not everyone does it but I still think a lot do
some fan translations even lock their translations until you've proven you've purchased the raws.

beforehand and already got invested.
now I have a little money to spare for such things, as a student I was struggling to even have enough money to eat

I always wonder if the pirating reader would have been a paying customer in the first place if they hadn't read it (pirated) beforehand
like I personally stuck to manga series and webnovels and eventually bought the physical copies in english once they came out *because* I had read fan translations

I just checked average ages for marriage and the USA has 31 while Germany has 35
I know it's anecdotal evidence but I personally know much more USians who got married in their very early 20s. the only people I know who married that young here are from my grandparents' generation

who get married now in june at 29. otherwise everyone else is still unmarried and it's unusual to propose earlier than 3 years into a relationship
men aren't considered as a requirement for happiness anymore

in comparison, my parents as academics are from a generation where it was actually rare to marry even while already having kids, my parents married "early" in their circle of friends at 28
I have one couple as acquaintances who married in their mid-20s bc they were hs sweethearts and another one

oh yes i get what you mean!
fantasies are often fantasies *because* they don't touch your real life. like roleplaying a certain scene? sure! would i want to actually be with someone like that 24/7 where no safeword in the world could make it stop? definitely not.

just stay single" is more prevelent (no scientific source for this though, only vibes)
it's also quite bizarre how young so many Americans marry, I guess that's also a big stress/anxiety factor for women there
comment in response to

ah yeah that's fair.
I know a few women that are like that/where everyone tells her that the guy she pines over is no good but she doesn't listen at all
but I think it is a bit more acceptable to just go solo and not be bound in a relationship, so the attitude of "if I don't find a guy I like, I'll

i have also never seen a bar offer free entry for women to attract men and overall there are a bunch of precautions i never had to take that are quite common in the US
comment in response to
post
that's fair.
I feel like US-ian culture is much more genderstereotypical than here, like it would be weird on a first date to not split the bill but US-women would be offended, the whole provider/homemaker dichonomy isn't so strongly enforced, and we are far more secular (even if it doesn't look

1, 4, and usually also 3 say more about director, screen writers, choreographs, and camera work than the actual actor themself.
2 can show a tendency and level of skill, though it can be diluded by getting typecast and not having much range in jobs available.

yeah I know, I've worked with actors and directors before and while there certainly are unskilled actors, more often than not, it's the director's fault bc they aren't directing the actors properly (or failed to cast the right person)
after all, it's the director who says a take is good enough

oh I'm not critising his acting at all! this is more @ the director & choreographer since it's not just Tatum's performance but the other guys' too
