Just thinking about how Chen Yi was always so stern and uptight with basically the same tense facial expression no matter what but started to dimple-beam at Ai Di as if he was the sun himself as soon as he declared his love for him and found it reciprocated and it makes me giddy.

#if one of you lovely gifmakers out there made a gifset of all the times chen yi smiles his heart out at ai di I'd be forever in your debt #it just makes me so happy seeing him so liberated and openly in love #kiseki: dear to me #ai di x chen yi

Okay okay, you all might've noticed I'm hyperfixating on 2010 Spartacus again. Here are some scattered thoughts on it, and also a desperate attempt to get my followers to watch it.

This show was so ahead of its time, guys. If this show came out today, the fandom would be insane I'm telling you. A Starz original series about slaves starting an uprising that's literally all about mostly naked men fighting and killing each other in the most brutal, bloody, hyper-masculine ways, but then also fucking each other and no one bats an eye because it's Rome? And also the main gay couple are the only characters that live at the end??? And go start a goat farm?? It's like an uno reverse bury your gays. It's a bury your straights. Bury your everyone but the gays.

Alright a decent amount of gays die as well, but not the mains!!

The fandom would be in the trenches. There would be Barca/Auctus vs Barca/Pietros ship wars. We'd be rioting over the Ashur reboot right now because it's not the nagron on their goat farm show we all wanted. I'm telling you this shit would rival Our Flag Means Death in its cultural impact.

I mean, it's also a pretty poignant show with great themes on freedom and humanity as well, but that's a whole other post.

#there's also something to be said about how fake the cgi blood looks and how liberally used the slow mo is #like #i kind of love it #after an episode or two it just becomes reality #but also fair warning to my dear followers because i know a lot of you are young #this show do be having a lot of nudity gore cursing and dark themes #i don't want to see a single comment about how black sails is the pirate show for the gays as well like #i know #if starz are real allies which they clearly have been since 2010 then they'd pick up ofmd huh #anyway brainrot continues #spartacus #2010 spartacus #agron #nasir #nagron #our flag means death #melissa og #melissa bullshit #melissa on 2010 spartacus

There's something about dramas like Our Liberation Notes, Call it love, Summer Strike and Tell Me that You Love me that just heal me and provide me with so much comfort.

#i would add my mister to the list too even thought it was a little too gut wretching to watch. #all these dramas hold a very special and very dear space in my heart #something about the slow moving and mundane but raw and true emotions provoked by the characters speak to me #i find pieces of myself scattered all throughout these dramas #please recommend me anymore that you might think id like!! #also the male leads in these dramas are truly the greenest flags #its so hard to find someone who truly understands and speaks my langauge of hurt and pain and love but watching these dramas makes me feel #less alone and that is why i'll cherish them as i continue this silly journey called life #kdrama #kdramas #melodramas have my heart #i forgot to add soundtrack 1 to the list!! #rant #my liberation notes #call it love #tell me that you love me #summer strike #my mister

Young adult contemporary coming-of-age story (releases 4/16, I read an early copy from Netgalley)

Follows two first-year students at Wellesley College who run dueling anonymous advice columns and befriend each other in real life as they bonded over both being aroace, unaware of the other's internet identity

Platonic love story

Explores themes like aroace identity, finding community, being the queer child of immigrants, and trying to find your place in the world as a young adult looking towards the future

Love letter to platonic/familial love and finding community

Aromantic asexual Chinese American protagonist; aromantic asexual gender-questioning/nonbinary (she/they) protagonist; lots of QPOC side characters

#i got an arc of this and read in basically one day while on a road trip! #i found it very engaging/easy to read #the feud between the main characters is very petty but they're both still quite likable #sophie is very relatable to me as someone who until recently was also a type-a student at a liberal arts college #i think the characters balance each other out very well also #like sophie is very organized and jo is a bit more of a mess #but jo is also less confident in her identity #this talks a lot about aroace identity and i hope that will make a lot of people feel seen #personally i really loved seeing a college coming-of-age story about friendship #because the friendships i formed in college were personally wayyy more important to me than dating #so even though i don't identify as aroace part of me still felt very seen #(that and i knew a lot of aspec people in college) #their feud is kind of petty and terminally online but that's kind of the point in the end #okay i do have to say though #jo's music taste as a dj is SO basic #also this comped to loveless and the half of it so it did amuse me that those are name-dropped in the story #actually there are some aro/ace books that are mentioned though not by name #i think i caught a reference to elatsoe and another one to fire becomes her? #that was cute ngl #dear wendy #ann zhao #2023 reads #lulu speaks #lulu reads #lulu reads dear wendy #books

Sometimes I'm too vulnerable and sometimes I hold a very strong opinion about anything. No one can get confused more than me by the traits I possess in myself.

Dear Liberals,

If gay sex isn’t a sin, then why does Matt Walsh call me a bad boy when he pleasures my prostate?

Icarus may have laughed as he fell. In some versions of the story Icarus was just a young boy, kept in the dark for too long and so enamoured by the world around him that ended up being his doom. In others he was bold and confident and curious, instructions for what not to do were more like a guideline for what he now must try, but the instructions were there for a reason. Yet still in another version of the story Icarus was finally free and no chains, even well meaning ones, would ever keep him down again. He couldn't have been much older than 17, he suffered incredible hardship, he got so far only to fall in the end. We all relate to Icarus in the end. We've gone through so much, lasted so long, and we just have to decide whether after all that, we too will let ourselves fall.

Generally speaking, the gender skew of chaos worshippers leans male and only leans further in that direction the higher up the hierarchy you climb. This is especially true for Khorne, God of War and Lord of Murder, for War and Murder are primarily masculine domains. However, it would be false to say Khorne's followers are completely bereft of female presence, even taking Queen Valkia into consideration.

It would even be false to call Khorne a purely masculine god for while it is true that the Blood God's many aspects are sharply male in their presentation, there is one who is not and that is the Brass Belladona. The Brass Belladona is an aspect of Khorne worshipped by the Brass Sisters, a Marauding group of women founded by a Southerner named Maegin.

According to the visions seen within the battle-highs of slaying the enemy and drinking their blood, the Belladona is a large, hyenoid creature resembling the spotted carrion dogs of Araby. Her snout is a bloody thing of bone and sinew with massive brass fangs. She is a broad-bodied beast encased in night-black armor scored in red-runes. From her skinless muzzle drips bright red venom that drives any who comes in contact with it into a furious blood-rage. The Belladona has sharp, shoed hooves and a ridge of ruddy fur runs down her neck. In one gauntlet, she carries a weapon that is axe as much as mace and often does she lave her tongue over the weapon, making it venomous. Some say it was Hashut himself who gifted her this axe. The Belladona sits atop a mountain of brassed bones and skulls, of foe and friend alike, and where possible her followers dip their skull trophies in metal or, failing that, dyes before offering them.

As the sisters headed north, they brought their particular spin on Khornate worship with them; some remained in the civilized worlds to propagate their God's edicts via cults, while others hunted down and slew the Northerners who had created them in the first place. Not for vengeance, at least not primarily, but a simple love of battle.

While some more "mainstream" Khornates sneer at this slight dogleg of interpretation regarding Khorne, others have met the Brass Sisters and battled them. They have seen evidence of their Lord's blessing upon these warrior women. The Belladona warps her chosen into lycan-adjacent forms similar to skin wolves, but instead of wolves they resemble grotesque hyena abominations with tawny, ruddy, or even brass fur. These monsters are called Skullgnawers and they bear the mark of Khorne in some form or fashion.

Other, more mundane worshipers of the Belladona often poison their weapons in the manner of their god. They use a variety of poisons, but deadly nightshade is the most valued. This same poison is ingested in smaller amounts in order to produce the delirium that supposedly connects a warrior to the Belladona (or kills them, as is the Belladona's whim).

In the modern age, the Brass Belladona is acknowledged readily by all genders of Khornate worshipper, though usually as a minor aspect. There are stronger notions of kinship and blood ties among this sect of Khornate worshippers, with values such as loyalty and honesty elevated alongside savagery and martial might. There is some debate among the tribes as to the exact identity of the Belladona, with most claiming that she is an aspect of Khorne directly while others, namely men who cannot resolve the feminine nature of the deity with the largely male view of Khorne himself, claiming the Brass Belladona is the daughter of Khorne.

Kharkhsyk is the specific name of this manifestation ( and A'khsdóttir the name for those who subscribe to the Belladona being the scion of Khorne rather than Khorne himself)

Like Hyenas, tribes that worship the Brass Belladona tend to be led by women and those women are very commonly warped in some way by chaos. It is sometimes said that only the Belladonic Clans give birth to true men and women of Khorne.

The Brass Belladona is an aspect of Khorne mentioned in Age of Sigmar's Khornate Battletomes.

I swear some of yall only say "ACAB" because you think its trendy to be anti authority. You need to understand that that acronym was born out of actual pain that people have experienced by the police. And im not just talking about getting speeding or parking tickets (though im not saying that tickets can not be a source of great pain for people), im talking about things that have brought about personal risk of life. Things like police brutality, being arrested, getting a "mental health check" via police. People say ACAB because they have been hurt by police, and see the problems with the police, and how they are all bastards via how they systematically protect the bad ones and encourage violence. They don't say it just to be rebellious or something. So like, if you say ACAB, you better believe it, because I see a lot of the (usually white) liberal crowd shout it at the top of their lungs, and then turn around and call the cops on their marginalized peers the moment they act weird

#im really tired of seeing the lip service and hypocrisy from people #especially white liberals and leftists #you aren't safe to marginalized people just because you can say some magic buzz words #why do you say them? Do you really believe them or are you simply parroting someone and/or trying to look good? #and no matter what you say how do you actually treat marginalized people? How do you treat someone being mentally ill? #How do you treat a person of color being angry or weird? #I hope the site's reading comprehension doesn't fuck up the point im trying to get across. im not optimistic #dear white people: just because im calling out a systematic issue does not mean its a personal attack on your race or person lol #acab #poc rights #mental illness
