This is Money Snake. She only appears every 312 years.

If you reblog her picture within the next twenty-five seconds you will have good luck and fortune for the rest of your life.

I reblogged her late last year and my 2024 has been very satisfying work-wise and (secure enough to not stress out) money-wise so far. Money Snake is wise and good.

in the tradition of outcast (2014), dragon blade (2015), and the great wall (2016), we need a movie set in the 1630s where a disillusioned member of the embroidered uniform guard and a profit-driven jianghu mercenary flee the corrupt and crumbling ming dynasty and somehow end up in the equally corrupt city of cologne, where they become key players in the fight against the sinister forces of cardinal richelieu and eventually secure the peace of westphalia and the end of the thirty years’ war. this is a million dollar idea i’m telling you

i really do love this concept. the protagonist is like i’m sick of dealing with wei zhongxian’s shit, i’m gonna go someplace where people are holy and don’t even know how to act like this (the impression of europe he got from the jesuit missionary he had a tactical lunch with once), and so he travels 5000 miles and as soon as he stops to catch his breath he runs into cardinal fucking richelieu, the european wei zhongxian

He also does it so well

Like trying to play off wiping tears as running a hands through his hair? Blinking back the water spilling from his eyes and breathing hard to not sob?

I’m wondering if Marvel wasn’t a coward and gave us a canon queer Bucky, Seb could get one step closer to finishing his set of Infinity Tortured Gay Characters

Over on Bluesky, the great fandom journalist Tamar Herman writes:

Hi friends! I'm working on a reported feature about religious observance and its impact in fandom spaces. If you, or someone you know, are a religiously observant fan (doesn't matter what religion or fandom, or how you define religiosity) and interested in chatting, I'd love to connect with you!

This reported feature is for us! Since Tamar isn't active on Tumblr, we offered to share it here. If this is you or anyone else you know in fandom, please get in touch: tamarhermanwrites at gmail dot com. (Yes, @flourish is already talking to her. 😅)

listen up chucklefucks, i just gotta say. I'm not defending zir, but I'm sad zie deactivated. Like, i get that trauma lasts a long time and the good stuff is maybe easy to forget?? so maybe it's just like that. And my beloved mutual @/pompeyspuppygirl made a post about zir clout chasing behavior, which is pretty shitty behavior if it's true (and if we're canceling someone it had better be pretty severe). anyways now that zie's gone pompeyspuppygirl said it was okay to make this post (again, thanks ppg everyone go follow her --really everyone in this whole drama is worth a follow)

ANYways yeah zie was my mutual and like, reblogged a lot my smaller posts. (that isn't to discredit what my mutual pompeyspuppygirl is saying about zie clout chasing ofc). AND idk zie was always reblogging art from new and undiscovered artists and reblogging donation posts (which if you don't know is really bad if you're trying to clout chase...) (again, though, ppg is my mutual i believe her.) and like, remember on valentines day i tried to blaze zir posts and zie told me to stop because zie didn't want the posts to go viral? (but again ppg is my mutual and has a lot of proof in the Google doc I'm not trying to disprove that I'm just saying what else I know)

Idk, like i feel like a lot of people loved zir's blog a while back, bc like zie DID make some good posts?? So idk why everybody's acting like they aren't even a little bit sad.,. like ngl this feels like maybe all the reasonable people left to Twitter and all the Twitter refugees who love drama came here??? shdfhhdhdhdhdh haha but idk...look idk, i just, julie i do miss you. idk. more thoughts later sorry I'm getting worked up shshs

Here's the original text because honestly this is impressive and I don't think it fully hits unless you know the Shakespeare.

Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears;

I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him.

The evil that men do lives after them;

The good is oft interred with their bones;

So let it be with Caesar. The noble Brutus

Hath told you Caesar was ambitious:

If it were so, it was a grievous fault,

And grievously hath Caesar answer’d it.

Here, under leave of Brutus and the rest–

For Brutus is an honourable man;

So are they all, all honourable men–

Come I to speak in Caesar’s funeral.

He was my friend, faithful and just to me:

But Brutus says he was ambitious;

And Brutus is an honourable man.

He hath brought many captives home to Rome

Whose ransoms did the general coffers fill:

Did this in Caesar seem ambitious?

When that the poor have cried, Caesar hath wept:

Ambition should be made of sterner stuff:

Yet Brutus says he was ambitious;

And Brutus is an honourable man.

You all did see that on the Lupercal

I thrice presented him a kingly crown,

Which he did thrice refuse: was this ambition?

Yet Brutus says he was ambitious;

And, sure, he is an honourable man.

I speak not to disprove what Brutus spoke,

But here I am to speak what I do know.

You all did love him once, not without cause:

What cause withholds you then, to mourn for him?

O judgment! thou art fled to brutish beasts,

And men have lost their reason. Bear with me;

My heart is in the coffin there with Caesar,

And I must pause till it come back to me.

I'm hardly an authority on the details of what's happening, but I haven't seen a post about this yet so I'll just share a summary and some resources about what's happening now in India:

On 13 March, in the Lok Sabha, Union Minister for Social Justice and Empowerment, Virendra Kumar, introduced a bill to amend the Transgender Persons Act of 2019, and it was passed by voice vote without any discussion.

If enacted as law, it will effectively discard the historic NALSA judgment of the Supreme Court, which recognized the right of individuals to self-identify their gender. Under this amendment, self-identification as a transgender person will no longer be accepted. Only two categories of people will be eligible for transgender identity: Members of traditional socio-cultural communities such as Hijra, Kinner, Aravani, Jogta, etc. and Intersex individuals.

If the bill is implemented, any transgender person seeking legal recognition will have to appear before a medical board and physically prove their identity, demonstrating that they belong to one of these two categories. Only then will they receive a transgender identity certificate. The bill also proposes that if a transgender person undergoes surgery in a hospital, the hospital will be required to notify government authorities beforehand.

This could severely affect access to gender-affirming healthcare. Many transgender people may be pushed toward unsafe or secretive procedures, leading to even more dangerous situations. In effect, the law would allow a cisgender doctor to decide whether a person is transgender based on examining their body. This amendment threatens to nullify the rights that the transgender community achieved after years of struggle, particularly through the Supreme Court’s historic NALSA judgment.

Ironically, the government claims that the purpose of this bill is to ensure that government benefits reach the “most marginalized” sections of the transgender community, such as Hijra groups, and to prevent others from accessing those benefits. However, hundreds of transgender youth who, empowered by the NALSA judgment, had begun moving away from traditional marginalized occupations and entering mainstream professions may now face new barriers. This amendment risks pushing them back into the very social structures they had struggled to leave behind.

1. India's new transgender bill amendment and the global rise of gender authoritarianism. Did you hear about the 2026 amendment to the Transgender Persons Act??

2. The Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Amendment Bill, 2026 was introduced in the Lok Sabha on March 13 by Union Minister for Social Justice and Empowerment Dr. Virendra Kumar. At first glance it appears to be a technical amendment to the 2019 Act. But one proposed change has major implications. It removes self-perceived gender identity as the basis for recognising transgender persons under the law.

3. What does that mean? The amendment narrows the definition of "transgender person" to certain recognised socio-cultural identities such as hijra, kinner, aravani, jogta and "eunuchs", along with people with intersex variations. This change could effectively exclude many trans people, including trans men and trans-masculine individuals, from legal recognition and the protections meant to safeguard them.

4. The amendment also blurs the definition between transgender and intersex identities. Intersex people have long fought against coercive "corrective" surgeries on infants. Trans people often need access to safe, consensual gender-affirming healthcare. Both struggles are about the same principle: people's rights to make decisions about their own bodies and identities.

5. But this has been a long time coming. In 2014, the Supreme Court's NALSA judgement recognised transgender persons as a third gender and affirmed that self determination of gender identity is a fundamental right. Yet the 2016, 2018 bills and the 2019 law were criticised for diluting that vision with bureaucratic gatekeeping.

6. What happened after NALSA. Soon after the NALSA judgement, DMK MP Tiruchi Siva introduced the Transgender Rights Bill in 2014, which passed the Rajya Sabha in 2015 and was widely welcomed by the community. But the law that was eventually passed in 2019, faced strong criticism due to concerns such as bureaucratic certification of identity, weak protections against discrimination, and inadequate penalties for violence.

7. A steady erosion of trans rights in India. For many in the community, the 2026 amendment feels less like a sudden shift and more like another step in a longer pattern. The promise of self-identification recognised in 2014 has slowly been narrowed through policy and law. Why are the rights and identities of an entire community repeatedly subjected to debate?

8. Not just an Indian story. India is not the only place where this is happening. Across the world, gender identity and trans rights are repeatedly being drawn into political debates. Laws restricting gender expression and access to recognition have appeared in several countries over the past few years. This amendment is part of a larger global conversation about gender, identity, and rights. To read more click the link in the bio.
