Hope is like a road in the country; there was never a road, but when many people walk on it, the road comes into existence.

Had a good long conversation with my mom about Sun Qian and the way hes so comforting just standing there and existing

And also about how Sun Quan was an ass for coming to Lu Xun for help ONLY when he lost 鬼门关 to Liu Bei☠️ Lu Xun proved himself when he asked Sun Quan to temporarily remove the position of 大都督 as there were no wars at the moment, and then automatically resigned from his own position of 副都督 as well, choosing to go home and study instead.

But now that war has reached Sun Quan, Lu Xun automatically comes out from his place of comfort just to help Sun Quan and give advice. And in my opinion, his skill level 不下于周瑜鲁肃二人。Sun Quan really shouldve considered this instead of immediately throwing him in jail without any consideration.

"The Marquis of Wu has sent me to inquire after your honorable complaint," said Lu Xun. "How distressed I am that the state of my wretched carcass has caused the Marquis the inconvenience of inquiring," replied Lu Meng.

I love how utterly heavy-handed post May 4th Chinese leftist media metaphors are. "How can we critique the way in which superstition and tradition uphold an oppressive exploitative system? Let's have a misguided old man buy a mantou bun soaked in the blood of an executed revolutionary as folk medicine to cure his dying son's tuberculosis." "How can we critique the way in which revolutionaries are unfairly demonised as violent for fighting against systemic violence? Let's do Phantom of the Opera except the Phantom is a leftist revolutionary who did literally nothing wrong, there is no love triangle, and the Phantom character gets killed by an ignorant theatregoing mob who thinks he's a monster because of his disfigurement even though all he did was fight and kill the rich rapist who disfigured him in the first place."

Delico's Nursery Concept: as kids, Henrique and Kate were total opposites. Few people know, but Lucia and Elena look and behave more like their mother when she was young than like their father
