#12Somewhat related is Kintsugi > Kintsugi is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by mending the areas of breakage with urushi lacquer dusted or mixed with powdered gold https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kintsugi
The article mentions it - >> But Ju ci is more than a technique; like its close cousin, Kintsugi (the Japanese art of repairing broken ceramics using lacquer and gold), Ju ci embraces a profound philosophy: that of celebrating “beauty of the imperfect.”
And that philosophy is called "wabi-sabi" (which is a hella fun word to say):
"Japanese aesthetic philosophy finding beauty in imperfection, transience, and incompleteness. Rooted in Zen Buddhism, it appreciates the natural cycle of growth and decay, valuing authenticity, rustic simplicity, and the patina of age over modern perfection. It encourages accepting flaws, such as cracks in pottery or weathered surfaces, as part of an object’s unique story.

#14I watched the video at the expecting one thing and finding something completely different. Remarkable — [0] watch the video in its entirety. Not what I thought when I read “staples to repair porcelain”. [0] intentional human use of an em-dash
"intentional human use of an em-dash" LOL
I still don't like them, human or pretend intelligence generated.
Please use the correct punctuation for subclauses, the comma!
However, I will give the comment author credit for _correctly_ surrounding the dash with spaces.
This is my biggest bitch about the punctuation, it's used without spaces, making it indistinguishable from hyphenation.
Written english is a space delimited language! The exception of the hyphen is to explicitly create one word by connecting several.
