Uh.. I mean.. Well.. It just.. It happened! 🤯

First things first: Episode 3 showed me EXACTLY why I'm never ever coming out of this rabbit hole ever again. That's it guys. I'm done. From now on I'm going to live right here with my little blond bunny right beside me. Anyone else want to move in? Yes? No? Maybe? Well no matter what you decide at the end - let us sit down first and talk about what just happened to us shall we? 😏

To be honest I was actually a bit surprised about the "amount" of flashbacks/daydreaming scenes. Seeing the fact that this was only episode 3 with 26 minutes screen time [after episode 1 with 26 minutes and episode 2 with 25 minutes] I don't think it was already necessary but it's ok for me cause it probably should've helped build up some emotions. Even though I would've picked the Bai Zong Yi and Fa Zherui thunder scene from episode 2 for it cause that was beyond sweet. 🥹

But I definitely won't complain cause episode 3 still delivered a lot of good stuff. After episode 2 already showed us that my little blond bunny sure knows how to torture people they seemingly wanted to top that. What can I say? Hell yeah they top it! 😳

Nothing weird to see here, everyone. Only a little blond bunny going a bit - uhm - crazy. Just a normal monday in the life of a gangster I assume. The way Chen Yi looked at him in total disbelief once he realized what he's about to do though had me laughing quite hard. I mean come on, Chen Yi. You wanted him by your side didn't you? Learn what your boy is willing to do for not just you but the whole gang.

Well and then out of a sudden that happened. 🥵

Oh.. My.. God..! WHO DO I HAVE TO THANK FOR THIS? I asked for more of my little blond bunny and I freaking got more bunny. Much much more bunny than I ever expected at this point. And as if him running around half naked [by the way: I NEED his bathrobe!] wouldn't already be enough to get a heart attack we also see a very good reason to like and follow Chen Yi. Well technically two reasons. I mean.. the tattoo on his spine? He has a freaking lion tattoo on his spine!! Lion father, lion son. Please! How cute and amazing at the same time is this? I totally get why my little blond bunny fell for him in the first place. He's in every single way beautiful. Oh! Talking about lions. Shout-out to Chen Yi's father who without a doubt had one of the best and funniest unexpected appearances I've ever seen. 🤣

Two scenes coming right up for you. Both scenes are simply incredible in their very own ways. Firstly we learn about bunny's class clown side and how easy it really is to provoke Chen Yi. Bunny sure knows which buttons he has to push doesn't he? 😏

Secondly we have Chen Yi and Bunny picking up Fa Zherui. Apparently his so called vacation at Bai Zong Yi's place has come to an end already. Why am I so annoyed because of that? Right at this moment when Fa Zherui realizes his true feelings towards Bai Zong Yi he just freaking leaves? Yeah so.. thanks for nothing brother. Definitely going with bunny's middle finger reaction here. 😮‍💨

Coming to the last scene of my own crazy perspective for episode 3. Well what can I say guys. This scene kinda broke my heart. Our cute Bai Zong Yi happily came home after he bought some strawberry cake for Fa Zherui to enjoy just to find his apartment empty. And then there's Fa Zherui's note saying: "Don't be too touched." DON'T BE TOO TOUCHED? Are you freaking kidding me? After everything including the kiss from episode 2 you really tell him to not be too touched about you just leaving him out of nowhere? Gosh you're such an idiot Fa Zherui. If you ask me, you just should've stayed in Bai Zong Yi's apartment and started a happy life with him. The situation couldn't have been any better for him though. No one knew exactly where Fa Zherui was hiding after the attack in episode 1 and the only contact he still had ongoing was with my little blond bunny. I'm pretty sure he would've understood the situation and kept his mouth shut for as long as possible. But you made a decision didn't you? 💔

And that's it everyone. My thoughts and feelings for episode 3. Holy darkness. There still happened quite a lot in this episode huh? We definitely got some little emotional ups and downs along the way which makes me want to have episode 4 like now. Right now! Heaven help me. Well.. I'm just going to stay here in my comfortable rabbit hole and watch the bathhouse scene over and over again until the new episode is out. Sounds like a good plan right? 🫣

What are your thoughts about episode 3 though? Any favorite scenes? What's your favorite character so far? I would like to know whatever you're willing to tell me. Please be my dear guest inside the rabbit hole. 🫶🏻❣️

I know many examples of bad titles in the french language, mainly titles of translated works (fiction, non-fiction and poetry), and in my opinion this is a major and recurring problem in the french publishing industry.

It's not the title of the book anymore since the publishers had decided to do the right thing and change it, but I feel the need to mention it because the title change only happened in 2020 in France and provoked opposition for racist reasons: Agatha Christie's Ten Little Niggers, which became And Then There Were None in the USA 83 years ago and in the UK 40 years ago, and was renamed They Were 10 only 3 years ago in the new french translation, at the request of Agatha Christie's grandson.

What angers me the most is that without the request of Agatha Christie's grandson, the french publishing house would have continued to use the original title, without worrying for a single minute about the effect of the word negro in 2020 in a society already in denial of its extreme racism, and without a thought for the black victims of racism.

It is not an isolated accident in this country: when the american author Ta-Nehisi Coates came to live with his family for a year in France (hiding from the racism in USA), he tried to negotiate directly with a (white) french publisher the rights to his book Between the World and Me. He later explained, on his return to the USA, that he had been pressured to rename it Une Colère Noire (A Black Anger) which seemed a catchier and more impactful title to the publisher, but which made no sense to Coates, who regretted to have given in.

Une Colère Noire is a bad title, more precisely a misleading title in my eyes. The book is not about the black man (who is already depicted as a violent and constantly angry man in racist stereotypes) and his desire for revenge against a society that has not improved his living conditions enough, but about Justice for generations of innocent people (men, women, children, elderly), all civilians targeted because they are a minority with a different skin color, and murdered by the agents of the public institution (the american police) which is supposed to protect them, in in broad daylight and in a climate of generalized impunity.

From a purely literary point of view and without political polemics, I never understood how and why The Sense of an Ending by Julian Barnes was retitled Une fille, qui danse (A Girl, Who Dances). I mean I had to check dozens of times before buying it, that it was the same book! This change is a complete transformation of the original title, and makes no sense given the subject of the book. A serious professional error at best, and in my opinion even a literary offense given that the original title perfectly captured the mystery and irony that permeates the book (a literal translation would not have worked, but the translator could have worked around the original meaning).

We all know good books that have bad covers, but do you also know any good books that have a bad title? (or at least one that isn’t as good as the book deserves?)

I finally had the heart to actually watch Lego Monkie Kid Season 5, honestly the animation ain't that bad! Sure it ain't like back at Season 1-4 but IT AINT THAT BAD- I don't get why people are too upset about it..BUT YES. Cool ending too, wish there were more interactions with Wukong and the others like Pigsy or Sandy but anyways. LOVE IT! 8/10 don't know why I was afraid(probably cause I don't want more Macaque and Wukong interactions GOD I just want to keep hating on them LMAO-)

sooooo funny that jayce, 5 o'clock shadow, classically-antimatedly-handsome muscleman gets called "prettyboy" by vi. like i recognize that isn't like. uniquely a homophobic slur but like. that guy is so masc. vi is doing some lesbian-on-masc-bisexual microaggression and it WORKS.

I can't really relate to people who aren't creatives that are extremely ambitious (& also horribly time inefficient & prone to procrastination, I can't relate to successful creatives either). like when someone tells me their big dream in life is to be a physician or a social worker or god forbid smth like a big business boss babe I do see them almost as another species. not an inferior species mind you just fundamentally different from me (far higher functioning & overall 10000x more likely to succeed in their endeavors so this is not me being superior or condescending !). I just don't know how to be satisfied with a normal life
