Should we imagine Sisyphus happy or should we image Sisyphus as collectible merch?
Kirimichan answers yes to both these questions.
Kirimichan is Sanrio's first Greek Myth hero. Their mythology consists of a personified salmon slice, whose dream is to be eaten. However, everytime they fulfil their dream they get reincarnated in another piece of salmon, and live in a eternal cycle of trying to achieve their goal that inevitably will restart the cycle.
Is Kirimichan living a tragedy, cursed by eternal repetition? Maybe... But they are really enjoying themselves.
Now, I would like to use my self declared status of a niche micro internet celebrity to incentivize all in Pi.Fyi to vote for Kirimichan, my personal favorite and beloved.
Though I started the comparison between Kirimichan and Sisyphus, I would say they fit better as a Sanrio interpretation of Prometheus, if Prometheus was really psyched by the idea of having his liver eaten.
there is something so deeply intimate about knowing a person’s penmanship. you could know someone for years even but not know what their handwriting looks like. i had a coworker (turned friend) at my old job tell me how when she misses me she looks at the post-it with the passwords i had written for my work accounts. (sharing mine here bc in my head i’m friends with everyone who comes across this post. pi.fyi community has gotten me through some tough times last year and i love learning new things through people’s recs here!!)
it still baffles me that there are people out there who heavily rely on chatgpt, maybe even have fully replaced google, to make the decisions for them. idk which is worse using chatgpt or tiktok as a search engine bc what the actual fuck ?? 😭
