I just finished Feud, and now my head is full of thoughts about Whispers of Fate, Puella Magi Madoka Magica, and Orange. And Evangelion, to some degree. (And RahXephon as long as I'm going there.)
They're not exactly philosophical musings about divine fixits but kinda?
I can't explain without spoilers. Anyone remember Orange? It's the anime where they dig up the letters in the time capsule.
Idk if I want to be him, want him platonically, or if I want him to step on me.
love when fictional men are so devoted to their partner it makes them dangerous and insane. very slutty behavior keep it up king
oh your pronouns are he/they?
well that’s mathematically incorrect becuase you can still simplify the fraction since both sides have “he”
making your pronouns technically 1/ty
>:)
Orgasm denial. Orgasm anger. Orgasm bargaining. Orgasm depression. Orgasm acceptance.
I got $52 worth of groceries for $22 (plus tip for the delivery person) and I have no one I can brag to about it. Or help me eat the food.
KICK THE CAN!
Let’s play the biggest game of kick the can on the internet.
To kick the can, reblog it. I wanna see how long this can go on for.
the oldest reblogs for this post that i can find are from january 2nd of 2013. this can has been getting kicked around tumblr for almost 13½ years now
And yet somehow this is my first time kicking it!
Well keep it going
Kick the can don't kick the bucket
Tomorrow is Saga birthday so I wanted to share some drawings from 2024 and 2025 that I made to celebrate his BD 🥳
you do kind of have to actively shape how you feel a little bit. you can't just like, passively wait for the world to impress and inspire you. you have to choose to look for it & you have to choose to find it.
take your feelings out for regular exercise to build their strength and endurance
then & now ♡
current fan creation landscape is kinda like if you went to a party with a homemade cake and everyone takes a slice and silently thumbs up at you with no attempt to start a conversation except for occasionally some guy sits in the corner with a tape recorder critiquing the cake as though he was a restaurant critic and another guy is handing the cake to an uber driver like "yeah i need you to find a restaurant that makes cake like this so i can have more of it" and the only person that's talked to you in 30 minutes is a very sweet little guy who was like "hey i liked your cake" and then ran away apologizing for bothering you the moment you said thank you.
someone brought a cake analysis robot to feed the cake into to determine the exact ingredients and supposedly it can spit out the exact same cake. and if you're like dude. what. then they're like well if it bothers you you should have made more cake. i'm hungry and i deserve cake. and you're like dude we're at a party.
Three months later you find out that fifty people locked themselves in a room to discuss how much they loved your cake and how they wished you made more. None of them ever told you.
so for the love of god. please tell people you liked their cake and don’t feel embarrassed about it. because then they will make more cake.
I live alone, which I enjoy very much. I used to live with other people, and I was lonely. Now I am sometimes lonely, but when things make sense, they hurt less.
When I order take-away for dinner I sometimes order a 2nd item. I like to get something to take to lunch the next day at work. I like to have a small fiction of bringing dinner home for a 2nd person.
"I'd better add on a [second item] so I don't get yelled at," I say to the cashier today, who smiles and accepts the joke of my fiction.
For a minute, I've spoken a world into existence, one where my dinnermate comes home grumpy, and ends up grateful for my thoughtfulness. I like this person. This person likes me.
Things I love about cdramas & novels Part2
+ someone is de-aged to a child but still has their grown up personality
+ someone is de-aged to a child, knows who they are, but acts like a child (and therefore gets away with acting like a child)
+ someone is turned into a cute animal
+ a beasty demon/fairy cultivates a human form (and is a hottie)
+ the demon realm barrier
+ iron tree (of emotions) is a real place
+ 500 years
+ medicine is bitter, I'll make sure you have sweets to go with it
In the dramas everyone sleeps in their day clothes with all their hair gizzies and I find it so charming, but if I ever read it in a book unironically I will flip a table.
The costuming gives me life. I want 7 layers of silk robes to flutter around in... even if they have to turn up the AC (so I don't heatstroke) and I can see my breath when I speak...
How To Crochet Lotus Root
This is such a cute pattern and the instructional video only has 15 likes after 2 years! I couldn’t find anything like it in macrame, just flowers. I’m going to try it with hemp cord. I think it would look really cute in a yaopei, even if it’s not traditional, after using something to stiffen the cord.
when they do the exterior shots in ABO Desire I scream every time the Space Needle, the Seattle Great Wheel and best of all, the Viaduct! which was torn down around 2020! idk but I love this? it adds?
Posting a new fic is like online dating. A few likes and no one talks to you.
Chinese fantasy media has some common tropes I am enchanted by.
+the emperor is not a good person
In a rare case, the emperor is not a complete piece of sh* but he will still have a glaring flaw or take actions that are impure
+ there is a villain behind the villain, and often another layer of villain behind that
Any ot all of these villains have justification of some kind
+society is always the Ultimate Villain and it will not be fully defeated by the end
+injustice is a theme
+someone has died and been reborn
This might be my bias of what I like to watch, but so far I've seen literal rebirth, rebirth with time travel, rebirth via a new life and true nature forgotten, rebirth in the sense of life altering trauma, and immortals experiencing tribulations in the mortal realm.
+ cultivation
Characters might be humans striving toward immortality, spirits upgrading to a human-appearing form, or they may be simply playing the role of martial arts masters. In any case, cultivation builds up spiritual strength that enables superhuman abilities.
+cultivators travel by light-step leaping (qigong) and by riding on their swords (standing on flying swords) much more often than on horseback or in a carriage. Transportation spells and portals are far more rare than they are in European-setting fantasy.
+somebody plays the qin in an important scene
Jade flutes also
Something that's not a trope, but I really love to see in c-drama is how many women have significant and varied roles! The imbalance in American shows and movies looks even worse now.
