Previously on Manly Guys Doing Manly Things, spooky yet lovely 01/02/2017 - Look at that dream come true  quote:Picked the winner from the BPAL giveaway via random number generator, right now it’s this person unless they tell me they don’t want it and to pick someone else; 01/09/2017 - Tears in Rain  quote:January 8th is Roy Batty’s birthday so I was trying to figure out some kinda “robots and birds” joke then I realized I could really only think of two robots with birds. 01/16/2017 - Someone told me they think of young McCree as Jared and now I can’t unthink it.  quote:I’ve always been partial to the idea that McCree is 100% fake urban aesthetic cowboy who came to Overwatch with no idea how to ride a horse or start a fire or do really anything outdoorsy much to the frustration of actual farmer Strike Commander Morrison.

I don’t know how people remember to post their comics every day. I guess not being a wreck of a person with no routine helps. Have a double helping of Slime Life             Unrelated but I really enjoyed the Swamp Queen

Last time on Joey's Special Experience by Hirohiko Archie: Thinking he has the upper hand, Esidi grips Jos3ph's hand and starts to throw him! Jos3ph leaps into the throw, pivoting around Esidi's arm and wrapping it in an oil-soaked string, which he'd been secretly unwinding and keeping hold of for just such an opportunity! Doing another full-size page instead of a single panel because it rules Read right to left: Volume 9 - Run Into the Hole Chapter 78 - Conditions of Combustions of Acids, Part 1

Oh cool, I like what I've seen of (Mr.) Invincible, but that's mostly the handful of strips that get posted more frequently. e: oh it's a book I have to pay actual monies for?  I'll think about it.

It's really good and there are a handful of strips that rely on the physical layout of the page in ways that would be difficult to replicate digitally.

Ditocoaf posted:The Adventures of Dr. McNinja Dr. McNinja is actually holding up, I thought I might not like it now that it's been forever since I read it and the premise is so juvenile. I really identify with the main character. Especially on days like today where I, with no ninja training AND no doctor training, had to jump through a broken glass window to get to a girl who was having a seizure on a concrete floor and hold her steady.

Shinozaki's Daily Maintenance      There it is, this is the thing that made me start posting SDM here. I just had to share, I reread this sequence like a dozen times the day it went up and I laughed every time. If anyone was expecting this without having read ahead, I applaud you - it took me completely off guard.  Edit: also agreed on McNinja holding up generally well.

I feel a lot of those stories give you a sense for what kinda society he was writing in and its values, at least the ones he has something to say about, at least through context. Definitely a running theme of looking past the obvious and strict societal roles of people and objects. I suppose that's why Confucius is being the foil with an extremely strict and black and white worldview and little to say to those who by definition cannot fit into a societal mold of accepted behaviour. Also some fairly common sense advice about animal training. As put in Nope every animal, no matter how well trained, has instincts and behaviours that can't be controlled and must be at best kept in mind and worked around, because they cannot be made to understand things the way a human does. A successful animal trainer has to be patient, flexible, observant, and bend to things they cannot control. Useful skills in a lot of aspects of life.

Zhi LiShu of THE FREAK reminds me of the living bodhisattva Ji Gong 濟公, the beggar monk who was absolutely not very monk or saint like at all. He loved hanging out in the streets with vagrants, constantly depicted with wine and a fan (to depict a tendency for carefreeness and enjoying the present). Graphical representation of him can range from "not bad, a cool dude to hang out with at 3am" to "a weird little freak who gives you quests in a soulslike game and laughs at you when you return from a restart"  He's also likely the progenitor of the "beggar clan" often found in wuxia media, where an underground group of people hiding in plain sight but unnoticed due to them being homeless bely a strong sense of community and justice, and super awesome kung fu. Think of them as the Baker Street Irregulars but with more anarchism and enigmatic leadership. Or rather a version of Lawrence Fishburne's character in the John Wick movies As a living bodhisattva he of course gets worshipped  For one reason or another I found a version of him as the cartoon Mr Bean which I'm not sure Mr Atkinson approves

Zhuangzi's admonition to be as useless as possible, just a total waste of space, absolutely no good for any purpose on earth, really speaks to me.

Are we sure Zhuangzi wasn't a psyop planted by Mongol agents? What with his compelling message of "ugh arrows are lame and only losers build large north-facing walls"

Not that I don't appreciate the joke, but Genghis Khan is a good 1000 years or so later than when Zhuangzi was writing. The steppe people to the north in that time (alright, somewhat after that time) were the Xiongnu who had begun to confederate in response to the Qin unification/expansion of China.

gently caress it, it's double urban fantasy time. I present to Japan Tengu Party Illustrated chapter 1: Of Daybreakquote:A tengu is an utterly proud and arrogant creature (so much that the Japanese saying, "to become a tengu," means to preen conceitedly) that is said to steal young children away from their homes. In this story, the fractured and disgraced remnants of the tengu species come together from all over the country to rise up, reclaim their pride, and rule over the nation of Japan, as is their right. What kind of effect will the "Tengu Party" have on the humans of Japan, and more importantly, what exactly makes a tengu?

Something about in a society that's been based around notoriously difficult exams for literally a thousand years and likely all the pressure associated with them, living as someone who has no expectations to live up to must be incredibly freeing. Although then again he does also make the point that to do your job correctly, you need to actually understand what you're supposed to do and why you're supposed to it.

Ah, I should've done some googling first. I remember reading somewhere that the Xiongnu may actually have been the Huns, which leads me to suspect that I don't know how to pronounce Xiongnu.

Almost forgot to post Takako as well.Emzedoh posted:Takako-san chapter 8 Takako-san chapter 9          I'm... not entirely certain what happened in this chapter. I suspect the translation may be to blame. Tree Bucket posted:Ah, I should've done some googling first. No worries, I'm just being a pedant. I wouldn't worry about the name either, neither is what they would have called themselves - Xiongnu is Chinese (and derogatory - it means 'fierce slave'), while Hun is Latin although the etymology is unclear.
