Damn, they abolished Celestia's influrence over Fontaine through Hydro archon/Gnosis, returning the authority of Hydro to the native Hydro dragon, and then establish their own independant authority, monarchy... ESTABLISHING MONARCHY in the nation based on FRANCE. In an archon quest kinda based on French revolution???
I want to point out that despite reskining itself as French and basically everybody is white... Genshin Impact is still very much an Asian game.
While Frence revolution is about ordinary people standing up against the devine/religious monarchy, the struggle of our region was so much about the hostile alien power, mostly from Europe and American coming to threaten our native monarchy. (China, despite them went full dictator and "Great Leap Forward"'d their entire country, right now has this weird hard on about ancient Chinese manarchy as a part of their nationalism, as long as it does not contradict CCP's "Communism(tm)")
The existance of our monarchy becomes the proof of our own indenpendence and culture. The monarchy becomes "the good guys, the underdog" opposing the "omnipotentent" power of "The White(tm)", in the basic fashion of racist Asian thinking all white people are North American citizen and native American culture never existed.
I am not here to argue if monarchy is good in this year 2023 or better/worse than Invading American Capitalism (because that is illegal here, you either be legally jailed for 15 years, or be illegally snatched by the not-government), but I just want you to understand why it isn't cool or radical to say monarchy bad here, than say, Britian or France.
I wonder if any French people is yelling, screaming at "Monarchy good" arc of Genshin or not.
So yeah, The Celestia is the scary wolf America. Furina and Nuevillette are like CCP, poor little native mew mew protecting average Fontaine citizens against the hostile invading power.
Like trust me, Genshin Impact will never have one "evil" government/native people in power. If they can excuse what Raiden Shogun did, they can excuse anything in the name of "But it is not Celestia doing that."
No meaningful changes will ever be made by average citizen, or humans:
The Liyue is an exception because the god willingly step down...bdespite putting his country in danger for a wack retirement plan.
Inazuma is about restoring Raidan Shogun as a good leader because she is the god, despite all damage she did.
Sumeru revolution, despite humans rescueing the god, is still about a god resuming her rightful role, her birth right that "humans" stole from her.
Furina might be a human, but she is created in Focalor's image as her ideal.
Lastly, my condolence to all the little village named Neuvillette.
Sorry mate. I went overboard. The CCP is a hostile alien power in this entire region too, the irony pissed me off. My granddad had to immigrate here, bacause the comminist party back then...and half of my family is still there.

Hello there! Just wanted to mention that I absolutely adore your blog, your insights are true gems.
I recently found that one of my favorite characters in a story I was reading was someone I would actively avoid and wish to never meet in real life, so I wanted to ask: Are there any bl boys you loved in their series (maybe also were your favorites) but whom you would not want to meet or would actively avoid in real life?
Thank you!
BL boys I loved in their show but would actively avoid IRL
Most of the high school students in BL. Teen drama is EXHAUSTING.
Honorable mention:
Mostly any of the leads in any Chinese BL, censored or not. They just too unhinged and obsessed.
Most of the ukes in campy Japanese BL.
Any and all cop, law enforcement, mafia, criminal, and assassin characters.
Any character played by Zee, Mew, or Krist.
The entire cast of Only Friends.
(see tags for names of shows)
(source)
No intention of keeping this updated so current as of September 2023. Only BLs that completed before that date are included.

Protest by AM on Carlos being allowed to continue in Q2 despite stopping has been dismissed on account of “yea basically we’ve done this before, it’s been an issue before but he restarted without outside help and we never agreed on adding the outside assistance part to the rules and there was never a clear ruling on how long a car is allowed to be stationary before restarting on their own so lol I guess we’re gonna let this go”
This has been a service post

jin guangyao genuinely cared about nie huaisang!
jin guangyao was emotionally invested in nie huaisang's happiness and safety!
jin guangyao was not and would never have been a threat to nie huaisang's life prior to the guanyin temple confrontation!
"no see it was part of jgy's long con to weaken and undermine the qinghe nie--"
🔫 no! stop that
