#don’t text them

[biboomerangboi]

Hua Cheng essentially cockblocking himself for possibly all of eternity will literally never not be the funniest thing MXTX ever wrote.

Xie Lian was pretty much completely in love with him the second he saw those lanterns (and completely oblivious about it) and then we get the wonderful first kiss underwater moment and Xie Lian is basically drawing hearts around Hua Cheng every time he sees him. While like quietly dying cause he literally has no idea what to do with it. Like at this point he doesn’t even really understand that he is head over heels totally gone for this man.

Until Hua Cheng is like I have a beloved I just haven’t won them over yet. Which he thinks is perfectly reasonable because his self esteem is the worst and he doesn’t understand how he could have won Xie Lian over yet. (He’s only on step 22 of his Marrying Dianxia 3000 step Master Plan ((that he debates throwing out on a regular basis because he doesn’t deserve to even dream about wanting Xie Lian)). So course he’s like yeah I have this wonderful noble beautiful beloved I just haven’t won them over yet wink wink nudge nudge.

But Xie Lian is like oh of course obviously I don’t deserve nice things and fuck I actually wanted him so badly I’m actually in love with him and now I will resign myself to never being happy for his sake. (Their combined self esteem is truly a so low it’s a hole in the ground which is hilarious because they think the other person is to good for them and unattainable forever because they literally have the same neurosis.) So he starts boxing up his feelings forever constantly wanting Hua Cheng and feeling guilty about it and literally dying inside because he wants Hua Cheng like he’s never wanted anyone.

Like essentially books 3 and 5 only happen because Hua Cheng has now cursed them both by saying he has a beloved because Xie Lian believes he isn’t wanted and therefore any nice thing Hua Cheng does is just him being nice and not Hua Cheng pulling out steps 23-34 of his plan thinking he still hasn’t won Xie Lian over. (He has he so has but he shot himself in the foot so badly it’s painful to read).

Like thank the Gods Hua Cheng is so unhinged and created the cave of 10000 Gods cause Xie Lian would literally be at his own wedding to Hua Cheng still convinced he wanted someone else and this was in fact a thing they were doing to solve a case together otherwise.

Like he needed something that unhinged to put 2 and 2 together otherwise he never would have caught on he’s Hua Cheng’s beloved. Meanwhile Hua cheng is like 🥺 he’s going to think I’m a weirdo now and I’m only on step 50 of the plan 🥺 like the two of them wouldn’t have been fucking nasty 2 books ago if he just kept his mouth shut and didn’t cockblock himself so violently.

Some random and totally useless facts about the ides of march in preparation for the stabbing main event

Caesar knew that people were conspiring against him and that they wanted to kill him but he ignored the warnings bc he basically went: i don’t care if they plan to kill me, they don’t have the audacity to actually go through with it

There was a prophecy that Caesar would be killed but he ignored that too

Caesar wanted to ditch the senate meeting bc his wife had a nightmare that something bad would happen and begged him to stay home. Decimus (the third of the main conspirators) convinced Caesar to come to the senate meeting

There were about 60 conspirators who agreed to help kill Caesar, the rest of the senators just stood by during the murder, no one really tried to help him

Riots broke out after the murder because the population generally liked Caesar

Caesar’s body was later burned at the stake

Nothing changed politically speaking because the conspirators failed to actually take over the government -> Brutus and Cassius (and many of the other conspirators) had to flee

Some sources say that Brutus was haunted by Caesar’s ghost and later impaled himself on his own sword to escape the guilt said ghost confronted him with

#the things you learn when you need to hold a presentation about caesars assasination in university #these are all from academic texts and articles about the ides of march #but you should still take them with a grain of salt bc i held that presentation in november and put all of this down from memory #i double checked none of these things #ides of march #caesar #julius caesar #brutus #history #ig don’t take this too seriously

maybe a hot take but slowing down, using more concise language, and/or giving more detailed explanations or instructions is not the same as infantilization or “dumbing it down,” some of you guys just view disabled/ND peoples need for comprehension accommodations as inherently childish, dumb, or less-than

#ableism #sick of hearing ‘don’t treat [them] like a child’ when i literally need instructions to be simplified so my brain doesn’t get overloaded and #so i can actually break it down and digest it #like tell me you think i’m stupid for being autistic without telling me you think im stupid for being autistic #just because YOU don’t need things simplified doesn’t mean everyone else who does is beneath you #now if you start talking to me with a baby voice like im a 4 year old that’s when we’ll have issues #but just clarifying isn’t inherently infantilizing #text post #top posts #5k

i think this will get me tarred and feathered if i don’t word this properly but i do genuinely think that fandoms with canon relationships - gay or straight - as the most popular pairing kind of suck a little. like as a rule. not the media itself, that usually is very good. and especially in the case of actual lgbt rep i would rather that over well written fanfic every day of the week. but. man. something really is lost when you no longer have to have a downward spiral of madness with your friends for 2-4 weeks before you go ‘fuck it they’re in love i’ll do it myself’ and instead you’re all shaking hands going good game good game. a kinder world, truly. but none of you are going to write a 150k word fanfic set in an alternate apocalypse universe that showed up in a single episode out of 200 just to prove your blorbos truly Are in love.

#this is mostly about the state of azcrow fanfic plummeting the SECOND neil said that was his intention on twitter and also a little about #ofmd fanfic being. not bad but slightly uninspired in comparison to a Lot of fandoms i read for #but HONESTLY the gays are not alone. jaimebrienne fic got soooooo fucking boring after they fucked #and they broke up in canon so now i have NOTHING. which whatever. it’s fine. fuck you got. anywY. #text #my post #mobi #***to be clear i don’t know if mulderscully could do the apocalypse thing i didn’t finish the x files. other than them tho.

As annoying as it probably would be, I wonder if AO3 would allow special HTML to prevent copy-paste of my works. There are ways around it but it might just deter lazy content thieves

#or maybe there’s a way to like. mess up the text to to make it look normal but make it unusable #it’s not a perfect solution and I don’t want to screw up people who depend on screen readers or anything like that but #otherwise there’s no real way to prevent them from taking my work yknow? #thinking thinking

abled people will dream up a utopia where disabled people don’t exist and then get quiet when you ask them where the disabled people went

#‘but we cured it!’ really. all of them. all of the disabilities. even the ones that weren’t harmful. like instead of dreaming up an #accessible future they dream up one where they don’t have to accommodate us lol #disabled #disability #ableism #text post #greatest hits

Yo just so you guys know, cause some people are getting too familiar in my inbox, I don’t enjoy being called pet names or bestie or anything like that. It feels very patronizing and crosses a boundary. I don’t know you guys, especially if you’re anonymous, and honestly you don’t really know me either.

If you ask me a question and you call me something like that, I just won’t answer. I’m fine joking around but I’m not a fan of the weird overly familiar or intimate nicknames.

#even if you’re saying stuff as a joke please remember that tone does not carry over through text #someone once said ‘I’m going to castrate you’ on some of my angsty art and I get it’s like a joke #but it’s such a weird thing to say to someone especially if you don’t know them #my actual irl friends wouldn’t ever say shit about wishing harm on me why do people over the internet feel comfortable doing that

yknow riordan’s whole thing about demigod children of aphrodite being super feminine froufrou shallow weaklings is wild considering fucking aeneas was a son of venus

#i mean idk maybe aeneas was a super feminine froufrou shallow weakling but he did conquer latium so. #he did also TECHNICALLY fight achilles however briefly and ill advised that was #but like aeneas is by far the most famous mythological demigod son of aphrodite/venus #and he’s like never mentioned. maybe he’s mentioned in hoo but i honestly don’t remember #anyway justice for aphrodite demigods because whatever lore riordan has given them is Not It. #robin text
