The provided sources offer an extensive examination of Franz Kafka's "The Trial," portraying its central "Court" as a pervasive, arbitrary, and inscrutable judicial system. These texts highlight how the court's operations defy conventional justice, with officials exhibiting personal and corrupt conduct within a complex yet informal hierarchy where influence often trumps formal legal processes. Additionally, the sources connect Kafka's narrative to Stanley Milgram's obedience experiments, exploring how individuals, like Josef K. and low-ranking court functionaries, can become subjugated to authority and act against their conscience, a phenomenon described by Milgram's "agentic state." Finally, the materials also discuss Project Gutenberg's role in making "The Trial" digitally accessible, including copyright and usage guidelines.

Twenty Six

In the quiet between two stars, he writes letters he’ll never send, chasing the fire in her breath, even as the distance burns.

Lyrics: 
Your name trembles
In my hands
Ink afraid to fall
You’re close as my pulse
And far as the silence
Between two stars

Milena
Fire when you breathe
I’m a moth 
In the dark
Your voice
Half dream
Half knife
Cuts me open
keeps me alive
I send you letters I cannot send
And love you from a distance 
That burns

I walk your words Barefoot
Across glass and fever
If you touched me
I’d shatter
If you left me
I’d disappear

Milena
Fire when you breathe
I’m a moth in the dark
Your voice
Half dream
Half knife
Cuts me open
Keeps me alive

I send you letters I cannot send
And love you from a distance 
That burns

Fresh out of the studio, Jing Yang, the Asia Bureau Chief from The Information, shares her insights on ByteDance's pivotal moment, China's venture capital challenges, and the emerging U.S.-China competition in AI and robotics. Starting with ByteDance's latest financials, she revealed how the company now exceeds Meta in revenue but still lags significantly in profit margins, with its domestic business—Douyin and Toutiao—continuing to drive the lion's share of profits while TikTok remains unprofitable. Jing Yang explains how founder Zhang Yiming has entered "founder mode," dramatically increasing CapEx spending on AI development while ByteDance mysteriously went quiet on the AI leaderboard despite earlier dominance. Moving to venture capital, she unpacks why HongShan Capital has only deployed a quarter of its $9 billion fund raised in 2022, citing the collapse of exit opportunities, new overseas listing regulations from Chinese regulators, and the disappearance of big-ticket growth deals. She then explores the new wave of Chinese AI startups targeting global markets from day one, explaining how censorship and geopolitics force founders to choose between building for China or building for the world—they cannot do both. Finally, Jing Yang breaks down China's non-obvious advantage in humanoid robotics: not manufacturing prowess, but access to advanced manufacturing test beds where robots can be deployed, iterated, and refined at scale—an advantage The U.S. simply cannot match beyond Tesla.

“I think this is a sort of coming-of-age moment. When I say coming of age, I mean collectively for Chinese entrepreneurs. Many of these founders are my age, or even younger, and I’ve spoken with some of them. I can really relate to why they want to build businesses that target the global market instead of just China. In the past, you could build a company in China first and then think about expanding outward. That’s no longer possible. For any consumer-facing software company today, from day one you must decide: Do I build for China, or do I build for Global minus China? The examples of TikTok, Shein, and many others show that you cannot do both. It’s not possible to serve both markets at once.” - Jing Yang

[[[ “Break and Run” ]]]

Emotional Pop Rock Ballad | Dual Vocals | Kaiju N.8 Inspired

“Break and Run” by Nezuki_chan is a heartfelt pop-rock ballad blending jangly distorted guitars, soulful male vocals, and powerful emotional female choruses. With its slow-burn rhythm, atmospheric piano intro, and modern rock energy, the song builds from quiet introspection to an explosive, cathartic climax.

Inspired by the themes of Kaiju No. 8, the lyrics explore the inner struggle of breaking free from fear, doubt, and isolation — the desire to escape the fog of confusion and rediscover purpose. The dual vocal performance mirrors two emotional sides: the male voice represents reflection and perseverance, while the female vocals embody strength, release, and realization.

Through driving drums, layered harmonies, and soaring melodies, “Break and Run” captures the essence of emotional growth and human connection — the moment of clarity when survival becomes meaning, and love becomes the light in the storm.

A song about redemption, courage, and the need for someone who reminds you who you are, Break and Run stands as a modern anime-inspired anthem of hope rising through chaos.
