For those who asked about ROTE prints, I added the 3 pieces I have in higher definition on inprnt :D
Today, as I make this post, they have a sitewide discount, so it's a nice time to check other artists there as well (they have these discounts once in a while, it's worth the wait to keep an eye when they come!)
At the Lingxi Caves where your voice was now forever drowned out by the perpetual head splitting ring in my ears. The only times I had wished to hear your crude words over the silence I had asked of you time and time again.
when you make your favorite writer work like a mule.
Memorial day at Marlas

Possessive little thing
Shen Jiu is quiet greedy

Do you have a favourite?
gift me a lilā coffee?ā (I'd really appreciate it rn š„ŗ)
I hate that the "x reader" or "x Y/N" style of fanfic has become sooooo popular, partially because it's just not for me and partially because they clog general non-fic related tags and those authors seem allergic to the "read more" function on this website, but ALSO because I believe that you should have to go through the trouble of creating an absolutely batshit self-insert character, with a backstory that makes no sense and a name that doesn't really gel with the aesthetics of the universe. Legolas and Aragorn should be in a love triangle with Kylie, the angsty sixteen year old half-human half-elf and inexplicable tenth member of the Fellowship. Do the WORK. If everyone was doing "Y/N" nonsense back in the day, there would be no Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way, or probably Bella Swan. These are important women. They deserve to be named, confusingly and with no regard for the fictional world they inhabit.

Someone was trying to murder the Prince of Vere. Drawn into a covert investigation, Damen had anticipated the dangers of the treacherous Veretian court. He wasnāt prepared for Laurent.
Talik said, "His contract with Lord Berenger ends soon. Ancel will seek a new contract, a high bidder. He wants money, status. He is foolish. Lord Berenger may offer less money, but he is kind, and never puts pets into the ring. Ancel has made many enemies. In the ring, someone will scratch his green eyes out, an 'accident.'"

#the reason that lab safety regulations are the way they are is because literally all chemists are like this #as in 100% of them #no exceptions (via @prokopetz)
On my first college semester for Chemistry, one of my teachers ran an activity with a ziploc bag filled with white powder. She then added a clear transparent liquid and the contents of the bag started bubbling. She then made several groups of students and gave us the same liquid and ziplock powder and she asked us to make a theory on what type of reaction it was and what substances took part of it. She also stated very clearly: "Please don't taste the chemicals."
The theories came back later. One group very confidently said the powder was sodium bicarbonate.
Teacher: "How are you so sure?"
Student: "I tasted it. It tastes like sodium bicarbonate."
The teacher was frustrated but not surprised. I kinda sensed she thought to herself "I should really stop doing this experiment with dumb children."
As an addendum, the powder was not calcium bicarbonate. It was another weak base mixed with a weak acid. The clear liquid was just water which acted as a reaction medium.
so hereās a fun story about this movie. guess who loves this movie? me! i do! i love this movie. i love this movie so much that when i was in the 7th grade and i saw āfirst wives club 2ā on pay per view i was like: HELL YEAH!! FIRST WIVES CLUB TWO!! NO ONE TOLD ME THERE WAS A SEQUEL!!!
hereās the synopsis for first wives club 2:
disgruntled first wives take their ex-husbandsā new lovers under their wing.
sounds great, right? awesome viewing material for a precocious 11-year-old.
so i buy this movie, and like, three minutes into it iām starting to feel suspicious?? like itās really low quality and my girls are nowhere in sight?? how come none of the first wives are the same?? how come theyāre alone in a bedroom with mood lighting?? why is she taking off her shirt?? why are they both taking off their shirts?? WHY ARE THEYā
hereās what i did not know about first wives club 2:
it is a lesbian porno of no relation to the beloved 1996 classic.
so of course i, horrified that iāve accidentally bought porn on my familyās account (and in that state of panic that kids work themselves into whenever anything regarding sex is mentioned), quickly shut off the TV and go upstairs and watch an episode of veggie tales to like, cleanse my soul and apologize to jesus, and thatās that.
EXCEPT, OF COURSE:
you have to pay for pay per view.
so the end of the month comes and i have completely put this incident out of my mind, haha, i accidentally bought porn, how funny, TELL NO ONE. right? and iām sitting at a nice dinner with my mother, my stepfather, and my very religious aunt deb, and weāre just talking about farm things, whatever, when suddenly my mother puts her fork down and says, āokay, thereās something we need to discuss. as a family.ā
AS A FAMILY.
and iām like, running through a list of people i know who could conceivably be dead, and fantasizing about my mother announcing that sheās going to buy me My Own Computer Just Because U Earned It Kiddo, and she pulls out a piece of paper that says DIRECTV across the top. and iām like: OH NO.
āi received the tv bill today,ā my mother said, and i was like, shoveling potatoes into my mouth as fast as i could because i knew that when i went to PORN PRISON they werenāt going to feed me this kind of quality starch. ādoes anybody want to tell me who purchased the pornography?ā
as a reminder, a quick table survey:
my mother, surprised and disappointed by the porn bill (innocent)
my stepfather, a grumbly old cowboy who just wants to sing along to kenny chesney and watch the hunt for red october (innocent)
my aunt deb, a super religious catholic whose best friend is a nun named Sister Placid (innocent)
me, the 11-year-old with a mouthful of potatoes who definitely purchased the lesbian pornography
silence.
my mother said, āiām not going to ask again.ā
silence.
my aunt looked at my stepdad. my stepdad looked at my aunt. NOBODY LOOKED AT ME, THE 11-YEAR-OLD WITH A MOUTHFUL OF POTATOES WHO DEFINITELY PURCHASED THE LESBIAN PORNOGRAPHY.
my mother shook her head and put the bill down. āthis was incredibly inappropriate,ā she said. āskip, deb, whoever. buy that shit on your own time. iām not paying for it. what if molly had seen it?ā
WHAT IF MOLLY HAD SEEN IT?
ādonāt expose my kid to that crap.ā
DONāT
EXPOSE
MY KID
TO THAT CRAP
āif you want to watch porn, fine, but do it in private and donāt expect me to pay for it. i canāt believe one of you did that in the living room.ā
I CANāT BELIEVE ONE OF YOU DID THAT
IN THE LIVING ROOM
but molly, why didnāt you own up to it and explain that it was an accident?
are you fucking kidding
i did not want to go to porn prison
the fun conclusion to this story is that i never owned up to it, which means that there are 3 people in the world who have not solved the mystery of the lesbian porn. a quick survey:
my mother, who lives every day wondering whose porn she paid for
my stepfather, who probably wishes he knew less about his wifeās sisterās porn preferences
my aunt, who probably wishes she knew less about her sisterās husbandās porn preferences
but molly, why donāt you own up to it now, with the safety of time and distance and the knowledge that porn prison isnāt real?
are you fucking kidding
this is the best thing iāve ever done
*flies past*
omfg did you guys see that????
SV shower thoughts again
Knowing NYY's tendencies to contribute to conversations in the worst ways possible, How much of SJ's "allegations" with NYY came from conversations that went something like:
Peak Lords: "So Ning Shizhi, what do you think of Shen Qingqiu as a teacher?" NYY: "OMG My Shizun loves kids!! He is especially nice to girls! (+ 100 more horribly worded compliments I can't think of) :DDDD"
Peak Lords: ... šØššØššØššØ????????
all jokes aside, I think NYY would actually accidentally screw over SJ like this. Considering what she unintentionally did for LBH with the best intentions.
