I actually think this is a thing with anime in general, from what I’ve noticed.
Also, a lot of factors go into weight, like bone density for example. What counts as a healthy weight isn’t universal. I knew someone who went to see a doctor in Japan and was told they were overweight even though they were very thin and didn’t have any fat.
What the FUCK is up with the DN wiki's take on the characters' weights??? There ain't no fuckin way L is 110 lbs at 5'11. That's a BMI of 15 (way way way below healthy). He'd look like Eugenia Cooney.
For context I'm 5'1 and when I weighed 100 lbs I was a 00 in pants size! I was so small I struggled to find clothes small enough for me (granted I live in America).
Like realistically for his size he's probably roughly 130 lbs (which is still close to underweight for his height). Where the hell did they get 110 lbs??
And all the tall characters are like this. Light is 119 and Lidner is 115 when realistically they should be like 140. Lidner is thin but she is a bodyguard so she should have muscle which weighs more than fat so she might actually be a little more than that.
There's no way I'm overthinking this like it's just not possible people who are nearly 6 ft tall are under 130 without looking deadly thin.
Light, *snapping at L*: I mean how petty can you get!?
L: I once edited a Wikipedia article to win an argument I was wrong about
Light: ... Was it about local self-government, Article 92?
L, *blinking slowly*: Yes
Light: That was you!?!?
Day 11 & 12 of Inktober 2023: Wander & Spicey Sayu and her friend wandered around and had some spicey snack.
I still think that a key function of the way we think of the concepts "adult" and "child" is to separate the human population into "people who deserve autonomy but no protection" and "people who deserve protection but no autonomy" and in the process dehumanize both groups of people. We ignore the fact that all people need both autonomy and protection, and that our society could easily be set up to provide everyone a healthy mix of both.
Ltober day 3!! pink and sprinkles :3 tomorrow i will draw him butt booty naked
The idea that Sayu Yagami is just good at manipulating geniuses like her brother and that she does it innocuously because it’s funny to her is my favourite headcanon
don’t mess with invader zim fans invader zim fans are hardcore they created their own successful convention and reanimated unfinished episodes and survived a 13 year hiatus that’s one badass fandom right there
One of the most interesting ways that Christocentrism rears it’s ugly head is when a Jewish person does something because of our religion and here come all the ex-xtian atheists to say “GOD DOESNT CARE IF YOU EAT PORK” or “YOURE NOT GONNA DIE IF YOU WORK ON SATURDAY”.
Like yeah, no shit. As a Jew I don’t fear god. I don’t think he is gonna impose consequences on me if I break his rules. That’s not how the relationship works.
If I do something because Jewish tradition says to, it’s because I’m honoring my community and keeping my culture alive. God doesn’t really enter the equation. He can have given us a rule, but if you know any Jews you know we have nine to eleven ways of following any rule and it depends on what suits us in the situation.
So if you slip a Jewish person trief to “show them” that nothing bad will happen to them, you are an asshole of the highest order and have fundamentally misunderstood the rule they’re seeking to follow.
Judaism does not include fear of God. It is a partnership with history and community and culture. And god can come, too, if he promises to be cool about it.
