Hey, I don’t want to make this into a huge novel, but my mom was diagnosed with bone cancer and then my dad died unexpectedly from respiratory failure, and then my mom lost her battle with bone cancer. Neither of them made it past their 40s. They didn’t own a home or have life insurance so I had to grow up real fast. Then my job closed down from Covid, but I thankfully found another. Then someone crashed into the back of my car and totaled it and broke my leg and cracked my teeth. And then in the middle of it all I had to move within 2 days.

I had to have the tooth pulled and I see my orthopedic on Monday the 1st. Needless to say this has been absolutely exhausting physically and emotionally. There are days I’m just an absolute wreck, and all I want is for my mom or dad to hug me, tell me it’ll be okay, and be there when crap hits the fan. I’m trying my absolute hardest to stand on my own two feet, but I could really use some help. I need to either extend a rental again or better yet buy a new car to replace the totaled one that was just paid off last week. My attorney says I won’t see any money from the accident until next year most likely.

If there’s any way at all you can help me with gas/food, extending my rental, anything towards a new car, or just helping someone who lost everything and his entire family in the span of a few months, it would be forever appreciated from the bottom of my heart. My PayPal is paypal.me/jpd05 or if using Zelle would be easier just message me on here and I will try my best to respond as soon as I can. I’m going to try and raise $1000 towards a new car and living necessities, but even just $400 to extend the rental another 2 weeks and get some gas and food would be a godsend. Sorry for the novel, asking for help like this is so difficult and emotionally taxing, I just don’t have family to turn to for help with this. I’ll update as I can.

If Jiang Fengmian came back from the dead post-canon all “Oh, I wonder what my darling kids, A-Cheng, A-Li and A-Xian are up to nowadays, hope they solved the whole Wen thing” and someone had to explain to him that

Little A-Xian became a demonic cultivator, got kicked out of Jiang Sect, started a farming community for war fugitives and victims of the genocide all the sects were chill with doing at the time, tried to fight all the great sects at once and then jumped off a cliff in front of A-Cheng.

Sensible A-Li wandered around a raging battlefield (A-Xian vs. Everyone) a month after her child was born and predictably got stabbed over it, joining her husband whom A-Xian apparently killed with a state-of-the-art conscious zombie after Jin sect tried to murder him once again.

A-Cheng got super strong for some reason and it turns out he got cored like an apple by Wen Zhuliu and A-Xian secretly had his buddy perform experimental surgery on him to give him his own core. Also, nobody realized Wei Wuxian just straight up had no golden core for, like, years, because he was just that good at Demon Magic instead. Also, someone let A-Cheng raise a child and it turned out exactly like anyone would have expected it to. Also, A-Cheng spent like thirteen years torturing people who stanned/cosplayed as his dead brother in his basement.

That would already be fucked up, right? And then Jiang Fengmial is gonna be like “Oh geez, I’ll go mourn my children then :/” and someone will have to tell him that no, Wei Wuxian is perfectly fine, he possessed some twink and is now living as the Chief Cultivator’s sugar baby in the Cloud Recesses.

And that’s when Jiang Fengmian will attempt to dig himself back into his grave.

Why being a 旁人 sucks

OK quickly but am I reading too much into it or does Wei Wuxian’s usage of the word 旁人 hit real hard during that scene in Chapter 62 where he meets Jiang Cheng and Lan Wangji again after he survives the burial mounds?

He tells Lan Wangji, “说到底我心性如何，旁人知道些什么？又关旁人什么事？”

Roughly translated, “At the end of the day, what do other people know about my disposition? And why would this be any of their business?”

He doesn’t refer to Lan Wangji as ‘you’, or by his name, or by any other title/honorific that he could have chosen reasonably. He chose the word 旁人and it just seems like such a deliberate choice, because it means ‘other people’, but more importantly, it means you don’t know me, I don’t know you, and you are no different from a passerby or an acquaintance I run into on the street. He is telling Lan Wangji in the plainest of terms not only to stop butting in, but that you don’t matter to me, this is how I view us.

In fact, it’s even more starkly contrasted with the time when Lan Wangji rescued him at Biling Hu from the water demons.

蓝忘机冷声道：“我不与旁人触碰。”

魏无羡道：“我们都这么熟了，还算什么旁人呀。”

蓝忘机道：“不熟。”

Roughly translated:

Lan Wangji (coldly): “I don’t do physical contact with other people.”

Wei Wuxian: “We’re already so familiar, how could you consider me as ‘other people’?”

Lan Wangji: “We’re not (familiar).”

This is also where you can get the clearest sense of what they mean when they use this word, and how it means more than just ‘other people’, because as we know Lan Wangji doesn’t mean ALL other people, but more specifically OTHER people he considers as outside of his circle. To be referred to as just part of a larger group of 旁人 feels kind of like… wow, this person cares so little about me as an individual that they’re just lumping me in with a faceless crowd of nobodies under the general term of 旁人. It’s like that scene from Mad Men when Don Draper replies to Michael’s “I feel bad for you.” with a parting line of - “I don’t think about you at all.”

It’s probably why Lan Wangji finally snaps after he says that sentence. To see someone whom you began to have feelings for, who was the first to insist that you guys are friends, that your business is his business – to have him not even refer to you directly as 你, but as 旁人, like you’re not even there, that’s got to be crushing.

(Also, for an excellent, way deeper analysis of the scene overall, check out this post here by @hunxi-guilai too!!)

WHY LAN WANGJI DRINKS

(all gifs were made by the lovely @mylastbraincql​ and who i cannot thank enough!)

I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THIS MOMENT IN EPISODE 35. this first time i saw this, i was just shocked that he did it but didn’t have time to really process more than that. it’s one of the most emotional outbursts that lan wangji ever has in the entirety of the show. on my third rewatch, it finally came to me. 

at this moment, they’ve just overheard a shopkeeper re-tell the story of the chang clan. lwj catches wwx up on whats happened to songxiao since then.

of course everyone knows that songxiao are a foil/parallel couple to wangxian. they have similar color schemes for a reason. we as an audience member know this. 

however i want to talk about songxiao from lan wangji’s perspective and how he’s internalized them — their path, their story, since he was 16 years old. in world, lan wangji takes their trajectory to heart. in fact, let’s jump back 16 years to episode 10.

The Untamed | Lan Wangji crying in the rain

[jadedbirch]

Every time I watch the rainy farewell scene in episode 26, my heart stops, and then it is reborn filled with Gay Vengeance.  If I had to pick one (just one - haha!) scene in The Untamed which gave the biggest finger to the censors, it would be this one.  There is absolutely no possible Socialist Brotherhood explanation for it!  The tears!  Wei Wuxian’s trembling hand as he holds out Chenqing! “If I must die, let it be by Hanguang-Jun’s hand, it will be worth it.”  I AM GOING TO SCREAM FOR A THOUSAND YEARS.  And then, just in case someone in the audience did not understand that these are star-crossed lovers going through some Peak Romance™, we get this entire sequence which I’m linking from a gorgeous gif set by @ohsehuns.  Lan Wangji’s wistful look after his beloved riding away into the night, the Single Man Tear™, the doleful lowering of the umbrella and looking up into the heavens (that have cursed their love), the absolutely devastating umbrella drop, and finally, finally, closing his eyes and letting the rain wash away his tears.

FAM, I AM UNDONE!  I AM UNDONE!  MY GAY HEART CANNOT TAKE IT!!!!

life advice:

never say anything to a penguin that the penguin has not already said to you

[moved-to-averinthine-deactivate]

this reads like a shitpost but i’m actually 100% serious. i was walking along the side of the harbour this evening, just after all the penguins had come in from the ocean to nest. there was one penguin right by the footpath, and when it saw me it kept saying ‘höö’. so i said ‘höö’ right back. it seemed to like that, and we had a lovely conversation where we just kept saying ‘höö’ to each other. i crouched down about two metres away from it, and we kept talking, and it actually moved towards me a little bit, seeming to prefer my company to the heartless embrace of the sea. but then i made the mistake of trying to change things up. i said ‘hweh’, which was something that a previous penguin said to me, and this penguin hated it, and fucked right off. never said another word to me. i felt so rude.

[drewdrawsstuff]

I keep imagining this from the penguin’s point of view:

“Gustav, my friend, why so glum?”

The penguin in question looked up from his half-eaten sprat, shaking his head in disgust.

“Not glum, Sebastian. Affronted, outraged - I had the most perturbing encounter with one of the Beakless Ones.”

Sebastian nodded solemnly. “Yes, they are often perturbing. What happened, my friend?”

Gustav sighed heavily, looking up to the sky and holding his flippers wide, as if to ask the gods “why?”, before mournfully retelling his experience, “I was on the beach where the Beakless sometimes wander, contemplating names for this year’s chicks, when one of them approached. It seemed harmless enough to greet - they’re cute, in a strange, bald and flat-faced way, are they not?”

“Oh Gustav, you kind-hearted fool.”

“Such a fool, I am!” Gustav’s moans had gathered a small crowd already - the only thing penguins love more than a bellyful of fish, is a story. A good storyteller was always guaranteed a warm spot to huddle in the winter, surrounded by bored friends longing for entertainment.

“What did it do, Gustav? Did it kick you?”

“No! When it got close, I called out to it, ‘hello, friend!’. It stopped and returned the greeting - awkwardly, but it was rather sweet, like a chick learning it’s first chirps. ‘Hollow fren,’ it said back to me. I was charmed, but not wanting it to learn poor pronunciation, I repeated the greeting, and so did it! Getting clearer each time, till it could almost pass for a true penguin itself.”

“Gustav is a wonderful teacher,” Adelina, his mate, stated with a proud nod of her lovely blue head. “You remember how well our chicks could enunciate, before they even caught their first fish.”

“But what of it, Gustav? What happened to sour this experience so?”

“We went back and forth, till I was satisfied. It lowered itself near the ground, and I moved closer, carefully, not wanting to alarm it. I was just about to tell it how pleased I was, that it learning so quickly, when all of a sudden, it looked me right in the eye and said ‘Fuck off, freak.’”

There were avian gasps all around.

“Oh no!”

“How rude!”

“I was so appalled, I could not bring myself to even chide it.” Gustav bowed his head in shame. “I turned and left without another word.”

“It said that to you? Oh dear.” Sebastian tilted his head in a piercing glare towards one of their fellows, focusing on the only one who was slapping his sides and chortling. “Björn, you scoundrel! What have I told you about yelling obscenities at the Beakless?”

Björn cackled and bobbed his head in defiance. “How was its enunciation, Gustav? You soft-hearted buffoon!”

now that’s a fine addition to my post

[darkbookworm13-deactivated20240]

I just read fan fiction about penguins talking to people, and discussing it with penguins….

I have never felt so happy, and so sad that I will never get to talk to penguins like this in my life.

[murraysiskind-deactivated202406]
