Beginning sentences with "And" is a reference to Biblical Hebrew. It was used by the translators of the King James Bible because they wanted to preserve Hebrew grammatical patterns. It is unlike Latin-based grammatical rules. There's no reason not to begin sentences like this. After all, the King James Bible is very beautiful writing.

I wonder if any English-speakers began sentences with "and" before the influence of Bible translations?

you can pry starting sentences with 'and' or 'but' out of my cold, dead hands

The Kazoku peerage of the Japanese empire.

According to the article I read, it was considered a status symbol among them to not know how to perform basic tasks due to reliance on servants. It's a fascinating contrast from the kind of values we have today, isn't it? I got the impression that their ideal of the most noble life was not merely leisure, but perfect stasis like a marine invertebrate that sticks to rocks forever.

Maybe we'd all see things that way if we never had to work

Tokyo Babylon 3. Those three girls saying corrupted mantras through the phone line... It was a good story, but I think the way they said 'I'm special' was too contrived, just for the sake of making them seem more absurd.

From a strictly ethical perspective, I think Seishiro's speech about the significance of everyday life is repulsive and evil. Maybe there were societies where an ordinary life was good, but in our times, ordinary life is not good and celebrating it means you celebrate rot and moral corruption

worst popular statement about art is 'disturbs the comfortable and comforts the disturbed' because that basically means 'art is a weapon to dominate my enemies and help people I like" which is truly evil

the disturbing aspect of art should be something everybody experiences but which turns out to be a good thing as well as a bad thing. Let's all get struck by it like ragdolls!

I was always amazed by the elaborate surrealism in ancient bronze. The examples are not limited to this famous Square Humanoid Ding (人面銅方鼎). My friend calls it "Shang era TV-set."

Animalistic motifs are common in household items and especially ritual items of the Shang and Zhou eras. However, such Janus-like vessels were rare even in those good old days.

not to be annoying but its really funny watching people in an rpg maker discord argue against ai from the point of view of "hard work and labor is what making games is all about, if you don't put in the effort you don't deserve a game". ok. why are you using rpg maker then.
