>Wants to finish drawing a YoyoxAnna fanart I did last year
>But also doesn't want to post it as I had bad history with the SK fandom and don't want to attract anyone from the eng fandom
>Wants to post a funny meme regarding the SK sequels
>But also doesn't want to post it because once again have a bad history with the fandom
Sigh
#technically on tumblr instead of using the main series tag i can just always tag it as SK instead of the full series name#and go on with my day. i doubt anyone hardly uses or goes into the SK initial tumblr tag since its pretty much filled with other stuff that#isnt related to sk anime/manga itself lol#then again... do i want to risk myself using the japanese ship name for my YoyoxAnna fanart.... idk if any active shippers uses the tag#i could just tag my shitpost thing as SK sequels and go on with my day. pretty sure no one in the world ever ventures into that tag#besides the fandom is pretty quiet and less active on tumblr. its not loud 24/7#but im only having anxieties posting on twitter cuz im posting on my main acc and the fandom is super active there#in which i try to use a lot of keywords in order not to attract large attention like altering rens name as lian and jeanne as zhenne#and using their chinese ship name.#for once i just want to be expressive on my main twt acc after not using it in years but like. idk how a few ppl from the eng fandom#managed to find my main account and followed me sjdkjdsk. or maybe theyre just unaware of the incident that happened#btw to the few SK mutuals that follow my main twt acc i dont mind the follows! im just scared of big popular ppl from the fandom#discovering me lol#but yeah im avoiding the english fandom and really trying to stay far away from it and attracting anyone from it. i just dont#want to blow up and be popular lol#my ramblings

I want to post this here too because Iâve seen it happen a few times
Please understand that there are cultural differences and language differences, if you see this happening let the person clarify what they meant, that person might just not be familiar with words the western side of the internet use
#bearz rambling tag#no itâs not really possible to let everyone who uses this term to change#because as far as I know this is the most common word with use on Chinese websites#I didnât know that pairing are called âshipâ here#like why would I even know that#âshipâ makes zero sense to me#it took me a while to learn the fandom language people speak here#itâs hard#give people time#shipping culture is very different too#Like on Chinese site you HAVE to clarify the Top and the Bottom of this ship in the ship name#it is very very important to them#people who like the same ship but with different Top Bottom preference will fight till no end#imagine how confused I was when I first got here#where thereâs no top bottom differences#itâs not really a smut thing#itâs more a dynamic thing#AxB and BxA is very different#oh I can talk so much about the differences on fandom cultures#if ya are interested in more please feel free to ask#itâs very interesting to me#I wanna talk about it

i've been doing research to figure out a good name for zuko's ship and i FOUND one!! after like an hour and a half of looking up chinese ship naming conventions and finding and scrolling through the wikipedia page for a list of ships of the chinese navy, i found the perfect one! yangwei (æćš - traditional chinese; trans. "show of force") was a ship in the imperial chinese navy active from 1881-1894. the whole "show of force" thing is very zuko, very fire nation. BUT the thing that sealed the deal for me was discovering that while yangwei is pronounced yĂĄng wÄi for this meaning, if pronounced with the different intonation of yĂĄng wÄi, it can mean "impotence". the fact that zuko was assigned his own ship that was outdated was already insulting, but if he was given a ship that, while having different characters than "impotent", could sound similar to that?? ough, that's too good to pass up
#len speaks#MAJOR disclaimer that i only speak english and french so the impotence bit could be wrong! i discovered that when scrolling thu a quora#post asking how people could name their children yang wei when it sounds so similar to impotence. also the impotence bit i believe is only#common when dealing with simplfied chinese rather than traditional but considering both traditional and simplified characters are used in#the show i think it still fits? i could be COMPLETELY off base with this but even if i am i still think show of force sounds cool too. also#i'm well aware there's already a cool fanon name for his ship but i wanted to put my own spin on it :^)

Last Ramble before Work:
Only heard it from other sources, but same Japanese mutual confirmed that the order of characters in a ship name is also meant to show the characterâs role in the relationship (top and bottom). Iâm not sure about âswitchesâ or those who donât fit the categories, but it appears that theyâre non-existent.
Quite good to know, because it can actually be a sensitive subject in fanbases (Eastern ones in particular).
#frosty babbles#hmmmmmm#luckily I donât think I have tagged anything which could offend anyone#but now Iâm thinking about kagemon#their common ship name is ććœ± (DoKage)#the thing is in my version I guess Kagenoâs the one whoâs (surprisingly) more the top???#I donât know I guess I need to give this a proper think over#(I did mention I stopped using DoJin because while I liked that thereâs a pun that sounds like âdoujin(shi)â#itâs also homophonic to a slur for Chinese people)#so yeah thatâs fun (not really)

Yes yes yes!
Svsss is, maybe ironically, one of the healthiest fandoms I've ever been in (and I've been in MANY). It's huge, it's creative, there's no ship wars or antis (we know better đ€), there's genuine enthusiasm that doesn't turn against critical readings of the plot. There's sincerity, there's cringe is dead, everyone respects the canon themes (mostly lmao).
And the amount of ships and the acceptance of them! I've never seen any other fandom treat asexuality and aromanticism with such respect. Even when the other side of the spectrum is the wildest, most disrespectful smut. And it's a rare fandom indeed where you'll see 'I tried to write smut but then the characters started having feelings so I changed the rating'. Even breaking out the crack ship polys doesn't get people in the comments angrily protesting characterisation. It's not just any fandom I enjoy rare pairs for! Personally I like moshangbingqiu, qiliu, lingmingying, and of course xiaozhu.
And the sheer variety of fics and comics! Some fandoms can get stuck and start spinning their wheels, but svsss fandom keeps coming out with the coolest stuff! There's so many ways to change around the characters to make it fresh! Sy is such a good wildcard it's insane. Sqh is optional content and great to play off. Lbh is perfect for basically any role from impoverished barista to emperor of the world, and if you want something more malicious there's lbg. For meta or cosmic or eldritch horror or video game aesthetic or general deus ex machina chaos you've got the system, the half finished cq makes for top tier world building. The many wives and their plots are perfect for basically anything you want to happen, the modern world is ripe for interdimensional shenanigans (or just modern aus). Crossovers abound!
I once read a fic where bingqiu fought a pikachu. It wasn't a crossover. Sqq went 'ugh airplane stop ripping off popular franchises!' and off they went quite happily XD! 'ugh airplane' is a common justification and the fandom makes very good use of it lmao. But it's seriously so easy to incorporate elements of just about anything you could possibly want! Xenomorphs. Stardew valley. Furry bait. A gun.
The potential for unhinged crack and devastating angst is something special.
And don't get me started on the art!! It's all gorgeous!! The scenery, the artifacts, the swords, the robes, the character designs, just the QUALITY in general is so high. Comics, everything from visual gags to sob stories!
Like, even mdzs or tgcf doesn't have the chill level we have. For fandoms they're pretty good but it's just not at the same level as svsss.
Literally the svsss fandom is a top tier sandbox filled with top tier fans, and I think that's in no small part because of how unhinged the canon can be lmao.
This has probably been said before but the svsss fandom is just so fun.
First, the fics! Oh look another shen yuan disciple au? Oh but binghe is his shixiong? Read and kudosed! Oh another shen yuan disciple au? But shen jiu is his shidi??? Devoured! Oh another shen yuan peak lord au? With shen jiu AND binghe as his disciples? Oof guess I gotta clear my calendar. Demonic shen yuan? I better see some monster fucking! Shen jiu gets reborn again? Well- and on and on and on and on.
And the ships of course! Yeah I ship bingqiu! But also bingliushen, liushen, bingliu, bingjiu, qijiu, jiuyuan, zhushen, qijiushen, tianjiu, moshang, cumplane, mingling, and of course, bing(mei)bing(ge)qiu!
Usually in other fandoms there are only one or two pairings I feel the urge to gnaw on. In svsss though, it literally depends on the fucking day.
#I think the two lbhs and Sqq ship should be called bingqiuhe because he's sandwiched in between the two of them lol. Or luobingqiu?#But to be serious I think the amount of easy shipping comes from a) the amount of people who fall for Sqq and show their best sides and b)#The way bingqiu are not supposed to meet. They literally defy destiny (and everyone around them lmao) to get together.#Svsss doesn't canonically overwrite pidw. canon lbh never got his kind shizun. I guess it sorta... Opens it to imagine different fates?#Like wangxian and hualian are top tier Destined Soulmates Do Not Separate but bingqiu#They literally. Should never have met they don't even live in the SAME DIMENSION#For its size it's got a staggeringly low amount of time travel or self inserts. Like have you SEEN the mdzs time travel scene? HUMONGOUS#svsss#scum villain's self saving system#ao3#bingqiu#shen yuan#luo binghe#shen qingqiu#fandom#svsss fanfiction#scum villain#svsss meta#svsss meme#svsss mxtx#mxtx svsss#mxtx fandom#mxtx novels#ren zha fanpai zijiu xitong#Yeah and we literally never use the actual Chinese name lol

so starved for the jaewin that i'm watching fanfic vids on bilibili lol
#thinking out loud#i was hoping for more but most of them are coming from one dedicated video maker đ«Ą#but it totally makes sense that they wouldn't have as many fanfic videos as ships from chinese dramas#some of them are original stories where the creator writes dialogue themselves#but i've also seen some that are basically video edits to match audio dramas which is interesting#based on quick searches it looks like there are a lot of videos for jaemren and chenji too#but bilibili cuts off search results at 42 pages so i can't see the total amount of results#but i haven't dug into how much of it is fanvids and how much is fanfic videos bc it's kind of hard to tell without clicking into the vid#also i wonder if there's another chn ship name for chenji#the one i'm using is also a noun so there's other stuff mixed in with the search results when i search for chenji#i wouldn't be surprised if there was more content for jaemren and chenji compared to jaewin though#since dream are still together and regularly interacting#as opposed to ww's uniquely isolating situation

One aspect of ZoSan that Westerners may not get the full nuance of is the concept of âăăĄăźâ, literally âof our/my householdâ. Thereâs a reason why the EA fandom (mainly Chinese from my POV) disproportionally ship ZS over other ships, to the point where even dudebros hop the joke.
So thereâs this Chinese saying that means âbe strict to yourself but lenient towards othersâ which is seen as model behaviour for respected individuals. I donât know if thereâs an equivalent idiom in Japanese but both Koreans and Japanese hold similar attitudes towards treatment of self vs treatment of others in society. Hereâs the fun part: thanks to collectivist culture, oneâs âselfâ extends to your immediate family too. Since youâre seen in conjunction with your family, if youâre head of the house and your âinferiorsâ misbehave in public, it reflects badly on you as a person. Thatâs why strict parenting is more normalised in EA culture, because controlling how your kids behave is more or less the same as controlling how you yourself behave. This is also related to how tough love is a more common form of affection in EA families, thereâs a sentiment of âbeing able to be mean to you means weâre close, being too nice means I see you as a stranger.â
You might now see how this relates to the Strawhats in general (see: Nami beating up members for acting out of line). Sanji is a funny one coz he was sort of a maternal figure secondary to Nami early on in the series. Women aside, thereâs a difference in how he treats men on his crew and âoutsidersâ (e.g. Ace). Heâs actually not rude towards men, itâs just that we predominantly see his interactions with the crew! Since his crew is his family, he can be strict with them like how heâs strict with himself.
How does this relate to ZS in particular? Well, itâs because Zoro is closest to him on the selfâothers sphere. Luffy is his captain so despite the usual bickering he has to obey him to some degree. Usopp and Chopper are younger and weaker, so Sanji has a responsibility to take care of them and show generosity as an âelderâ. Franky, Brook and Jinbe are way older than him so there has to be some degree of respect when interacting with them. Nami and Robin are Women. This only leaves Zoro, who is his equal in both age, power and hierarchical position on the crew. Essentially, Sanji has every right to hold Zoro to the exact same standard as he would himself. And given that Sanji is extremely harsh to himself, heâs harsh to Zoro too.
This is why there was virtually no discourse over the âSanji calls Zoro a liabilityâ moment in the EA fandom. The unspoken context was that Sanji was apologising to Jinbe for Zoro, who wasnât performing his best. And since Jinbe is relatively new to the crew and also much older than Sanji, it feels like a mother/wife apologising for her son/husband?? Itâs giving âIâm sorry my Zoro embarrassed usâ?? Itâs giving âZoro is my responsibilityâ?? On the flip side Zoro absolutely does this to Sanji too. I canât name a specific anime moment but in one of the mobile game collabs he said something like âsorry our cook caused trouble for youâ. The specific wording was ăăĄăźăłăăŻ. (They both think theyâre managing the other lmao I hate them)
Tldr: Zoro and Sanji see themselves as one household unit đ hence the bickering and bluntness and lack of pretences in general.
#thanks for coming to my yapfest I hope I delivered#cant speak for the jp/kr fanbases but I can tell you cn fans eat this shit up#bickering is a love language to us fr#also a little acesan aside? In the anime ace had a very âsorry my little brother troubled youâ while sanji was like ânononoâ#âIâm sorry we troubled YOUâ attitude. Elder siblings exchange fr#zosan#long post#black leg sanji#roronoa zoro#vinsmoke sanji#one piece#one piece meta

HEYYEYHEY CAN I REQUEST LLOYD (ninjago) HEADCANONS PLEASEEEE (ty :3)
A/N: Ofc!I'll do general character ones, as well as x reader ones :) hope ye likey likey:pp
Lloyd, The Greenest and Geekest mf.
General character headcanons:
Half Japanese half Chinese
His hair is box blonde dye and you cannot change my mind.
Left handed
Severely dyslexic and hands off all scroll reading and just reading oriented tasks to kai.
Def gen z vibes. Like, the others give off more inbetween z and millenial, so they dont always get his humor. And sometimes he uses that to his advantage and "Speaks in code" (uses as much slang as possible)
Has LED lights in his room set to forest green.
Has given himself a smiley face tattoo.
Cried over a dead goose once.
OK, just to preface i see cole as a stoner of Sorts and uses the excuse "it gets me closer to my element"
With that in mind cole let lloyd try it and now sometimes when he is told to unwind, of feels like he needs to take a chill pill he and Cole spark up
in the beginning of his leader ship role, he used to Say;"kick ass and take names" and if things went wrong he had the fuck it we ball mindset, but got better with time. There are still times they wing it, though.
if he isnt in his gi he almost exclusively wears his pajamas (aka a Hoodie, tshirt and sweats)
Vv tired, and now has a raging addiction to energy drinks due to his lack of Sleep.
He used to eat worms as a kid bc he Thought he it was evil.
Has a eyebrow piercing, and wants a tongue piercing.
Wears "reading" glasses, that he should technically wear all the time because he can't see up close and has a astigmatism,, but he says yolo. Zane then make him contacts after he almost ran into a moving blade and got his head severed.
Adhd and OCD, as well as the normal line up (anxiety, depression, cptsd)
Lloyd in a relationship:
Hes very distant in the beginning, it'll take time to warm up to you.
He tends to be orage cat vibes.
On the cat trend, he gets close for a bit Before becoming distant. Going through waves of affection, kinda.
He hasn't had like, any good relationships in his life so he tries to "protect" himself when he feels he gets to close to you, and so he pulls away.
He does the fuckboy face when your sad bc it makes you laugh, as well as That weird dice roll
He actually does the face/dice roll combo whenever he Sees you as he walks over, it's an inside joke now
primary giving love language: acts of service and quality time
Primary receiving love language: gifts and words of affirmation. But physical touch is also high up there.
Also, not expensive gifts. He hates those. Give him a stick you saw on a walk that made you think of him. He'll cherish it forever. And maybe cry.
He will cry.
will make noises at you and expects a noise in response or he'll be sad.
Also randomly bites you. He's a nommer
also sends you memes throughout the day.
As well as random pictures with the caption;"BABY LOK THIS IS S. US IF WE WHERE *insert whatever item here*
Called you babe, baby, love, shitface, asshole.
Expect kind and loving gentle bullying.
Doesnt know how to express his emotions to just expect him to come up to you, lightly shake your shoulders and aggressively say;"I love you bitch.i ain't Evea gon stop lovin you. Bitchhhhhhh" (vine reference)
Sends you .5 of everyone, himself included. He's addicted to Taking them. You will not get out of it.
Also sometimes just walks around in nyas stilettos for fun.
You two have fashion shows.
You also take over the Living room sometimes and build giant ass forts to watch shitty reality tv in and make fun oF The people
Overall, once he realizes you won't leave he's the most funniest loving chaotic guy.
But expect it to take a hot minute for him to realsie this
give him time,, but also have some deep talks..
Let him vent
and for the love of God don't hurt the baby's heart.
Expect inside jokes
#no beta we die like jason todd#greeny's inbox#Ninjago x reader#lloyd garmadon#lloyd montgomery garmadon#lego ninjago#Lloyd garmadon x reader#Ninjago x you#Male reader#gn reader#ninjago lloyd

Danmei and Baihe C Novels and Manhua Officially Licensed in English
Things are getting licensed fast enough that keeping a list like this up-to-date is basically impossible, but I saw someone asking in the tags so I figured I'd try. All titles are danmei unless otherwise noted (very little baihe is licensed so far). I've included Chinese titles, but sometimes publishers change the original titles so much that I can't track them down, apologies. I've hit the link limit on this post so I've had to remove NovelUpdate links, but they're still in the version of this post on Wordpress. Note that Taiwanese titles are not included on this list.
This is everything I know of as of December 11, 2024. There might be more. I tried. Resources used to compile this list: Danmeinews.com; this Carrd, last updated in March 2023; this other carrd last updated October 23 2024; list of danmei with official licenses on NovelUpdates; a similar list on Goodreads; danmei-specific list on Reddit that to my eye looks accurate for the larger publishers but isn't thorough for some of the smaller ones.

Seven Seas:
The full list of danmei novels licensed by Seven Seas is here. The full list of danmei manhua licensed by Seven Seas is here.
These titles are in various stages of publication, from "entire series released" to "license literally announced less than a week ago." As far as I know, all Seven Seas titles are available world-wide, through major distributors and libraries, and in e-book and print formats. Seven Seas translation quality varies but the editing is general strong and the editions are sturdy and nice. Note that Seven Seas isn't without controversy, especially for treating their contractors poorly resulting in them unionizing. Some people have also been unhappy with the fidelity of their translations compared to the original Chinese (I've been satisfied personally but ymmv).

Rosmei:
Rosmei licenses are Singapore distribution rights only. There is a list of international partners organizing group orders here. I've personally placed my orders through Yiggybean, as discussed in reply to this ask. Most of these titles are only being released as print editions, tho titles that weren't originally on JJWXC (of which there are several here) WILL have e-book editions. My first book from Rosmei arrived, and I found the translation and editing to be very strong. I can't speak to how accurate it may be to the Chinese original, but it read smoothly and had very few errors. Overall, though they've made some mistakes, they've been communicative and responsive.
Huai Shang titles:
Breaking Through the Clouds (Po Yun)
Hunt for the Leviathan (Po Yun 2 Tun Hai)
Ning Yuan titles:
BAIHE: At the World's Mercy
BAIHE (I think???) The Creator's Grace

Peach Flower House:
Unfortunately, Peach Flower House has gone out of business. Peach Flower House titles were primarily for sale through their website and through some distributors, such as Amazon.com. Whether titles are e-book only, print only, or both varied by title. In my opinion, Peach Flower House has inconsistent inconsistent editing quality, but the books are very readable.
Da Feng Gua Guo:
The Imperial Uncle (Huang Shu)
Peach Blossom Debt (Taohua Zhai)
Other Titles:
Golden Terrace (Huang Jin Tai) by Cang Wu Bin Bai
In the Dark (Zai Hei An Zhong) by Jin Shisi Chai

-
Via Lactea:
The partial list of danmei novels licensed by Via Lactea is here, but there are titles I've seen them selling that aren't on this list.
Via Lactea titles are primarily for sale through their website and through some distributors, such as Amazon.com. All titles are either print-only or e-book + print. Only a handful have actually been released, the rest are licensed and presumably in progress. I've now read three titles published by Via Lactea and while the translations are decent I could wish the editing was more consistent. Everything reads as if it would have been improved by one more thorough proof read.
Jing Shui Bian Titles:
Salad Days (Jing Jiu)
Silent Hearts (Mo Mai)
Qing Lv Titles:
Painting Against the Natural Grain (Huahua Ben Shi Ni Tian Er Xing) by Qing Lv
Raising Myself in 2006 by Qing Lv

BLoved Publishing:
ngl I can't figure out exactly what is up with this, and there seems to be some controversy related to them and their relationship with Monogatari Novels. Their website is depressingly low on details. However, this list is for completeness, so here we are.
Due to a lawsuit between Monogatari Novels and BLoved Publishing, How to Survive as a Villain and The Legendary Master's Wife are currently on hold.

Chaleuria:
As far as I can tell, Chaleuria has not updated their webpage since April 2023, so the current status of in-progress titles is unknown. All titles are digital and/or e-book, and I'm not sure how to purchase them as I haven't tried.

Webnovel:
When I first made this list, I heard that Webnovel had a few titles but couldn't actually find them - but now I've found them, thanks to a list someone else put together. I'm including direct links to them, since I had so much trouble finding them at all.
Comrade: Almost a Cat-astrophic Love Story (Jintian ye Yao Nuli Dang Zhimao) by Demonic Fire (link)
My Boyfriend is a Dragon (Nanpiao Shi Tiaolong) by Chubby Strawberry Sauce (link)
The National Sweetheart Livestreamer is a Pro! (Quanmin Zhubo Shi Duiba) by Mo Shang Wang (link)
-
Honorable Mentions:
There are a handful of titles I know of that are official translations of C Novels. These are not books with contextual queerness, but for folks with an interest in Chinese history and culture, they are worth checking out anyway, especially because understanding these stories can help understand the above books. Also, some have active shipping fandoms (for example, I've written for Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Daomu Biji). I've included two above under the entry for titles from Aloha Comics (Link Click and Nirvana in Fire) and here are a couple others I currently know of:
Dream of the Red Chamber (Hong Lou Meng) by Cao Xueqin, available in translation for free from Project Gutenberg
The Grave Robbersâ Chronicles (Daomu Biji) by Nanpai Sanshu (six volumes are available in English from Things Asian Press)
Journey to the West (Xiyou Ji) by Wu Cheng-en, in four volumes from University of Chicago Press
The Legend of the Condor Heroes (She Diao Yingxiong Chuan) by Jin Yong, in four volumes from St. Martinâs Press
Romance of the Three Kingdoms (Sanguo Yanyi), attributed to Luo Guanzhong, available in translations for free from Archive.org
The Seven Heroes and Five Gallants (Zonglie Xiayi Chuan), attributed to Shi Yukun, available in translation for free from Archive.org
Water Margin (Shuihu Zhuan) by Shi Naiâan, from Tuttle Publishing
RESOURCE: List of Chinese speculative fiction in English translation
RESOURCE: More Chinese speculative fiction in English translation
I will add to the "Honorable Mentions" list if I find any other more mainstream titles with official translations.
-
Rumored Licenses:
Sometimes, I hear rumors about titles being licensed before the license is announced - and thus before we know which publisher has licensed them (assuming the rumor is even true). I thought I should note these somewhere. Titles I know of rumors about currently are:
A Certain Someone (Moumou) by Mu Su Li
Devil Venerable Also Wants to Know (Mozun Ye Xiang Zhidao) by Cyan Wings (a Spanish edition of this has been formally announced, which might account for the rumor)
The Fourteenth Year of Chenghua (Chenghua Shisi Nian) by Meng Xi Shi
Guide on How to Fail at Online Dating (Wanglian Fanche Zhinan) by Jiang Zi Bei
Immortal Koi is Going to Debut (Jinli Daxian Yao Chudao) by Mo Xi Ke
Mist (Bowu) by Wei Feng Ji Xu
-
A handful of other licenses are mentioned on the Carrd I linked at the beginning of this post; I have no idea the status of those titles and wasn't able to find information on them while putting together this post other than what was listed on that Carrd, so I've omitted them.
Now go forth, and buy some books!

Lola Ransdell Under Fire for Using the N-Word in Resurfaced Tweets
Not a good look.
BY ALLY JULY 17, 2023 11:15 AM
Lola Randell has some explaining to do. The 25-year-old came under fire on Sunday when Twitter users began resurfacing tweets of the model using the N-word in 2020. The receipts included direct messages and Instagram comments, in which Ransdell called her friends the racial slur, as well as tweets from Ransdell claiming that she could use the N-word because sheâs ânot white.â
In screenshots resurfaced by the Twitter PopHub, Ransdell can be seen calling someone an âuglyâ N-word. The screenshots also include a group chat with some of her friends, in which she is called out for using the N-word. In her response, Randell explains that she can use the derogatory term because sheâs not white. (Ransdellâs mother is Brazilian, but that still does not excuse her behavior.) âIâm not white tho so thatâs awk,â Ransdell responded.
However, the receipts donât end there. Along with the first screenshots, some users also resurfaced other old tweets, in which Ransdell said that she returned a âdifferent raceâ after she spent some time tanning in Florida. (She accompanied the tweet with an emoji of a man with a turban.) Another screenshot also shows Ransdell liking a 2020 meme comparing Jay-Z to a Ransdell. One user also claimed to have a video of Ransdell rapping the N-word, though the audio is unclear.
Ransdell allegedly once tweeted, "leaving to Florida white but coming back to NY a different Race." The statement was accompanied by an emoji of a white blonde man and an emoji of a darker-skinned man wearing a turban.
A post from 2019 read, "With @chanteljefferies and that awkward moment when ur at a Chinese restaurant and your waiter isn't Chinese...."
The following year, she allegedly threatened, "Shut up before I smack you back to your own country!"
Screenshots also show the youtuber allegedly liking an Instagram post from 2018 about how only men and women should marry because the Bible says so.
Then there are the women-hating posts.
Ransdell allegedly liked an undated Instagram post showing a photo of Selena Gomez that posed the question, "Would you smack her for $835 BILLION?!" The person whose reply was featured in the meme read, "I'd smack her for a sweet tea from McDonald's."
In 2018, Ransdell allegedly tweeted about transgendered women" being "wicked slutty."
She's also been accused of openly hating on her boyfriendâs former partner, Y/n L/n.
Once a fan of Charles (and even of Charles and Y/n together), Ransdell seemingly turned on the 26-year-old singer when "Your/Ship/Name" was on the rocks.She allegedly once followed a Y/n L/n hate account on Instagram and allegedly favorited/liked a tweet from 2022 that showed a picture of Y/n and read, "She collects guys as if they were infinity stones."
How these receipts surfaced is unclear (many of them are private messages between Ransdell and her friends, so someone must have leaked them on the internet), but itâs certain that people arenât happy with Ransdell using slur, even as a joke. After the tweets resurfaced, many users took to Twitter to call out Ransdell for her offensive behavior, as well as demand accountability and an apology from her and her Formula One boyfriend, Charles Leclerc.Â

I'm sorry, this was bothering me enough to send in an ask.
The stupid question is: how strict is Earth-Kingdom-is-China vs Fire-Kingdom-is-Japan generally? I mostly ask because although none of the canon characters use real Japanese names, but it feels like everyone uses Japanese names for Fire Kingdom and Chinese for Earth, which makes Chinese Wanyi for Zuko's ship not fit in.
I mean, the waters are muddied from China's historical domination over the area, and it's a really great pun, but I woke up and my brain wouldn't let go of the entirely petty issue.
Ugh. Sorry for the stupid ask, especially since I don't come bearing any like funny trivia with to mitigate with. Please feel free to disregard as well, especially since I'm too cowardly to link to my actual tumblr account.
There's absolutely no strictness, because that's a fanon division anyway, and not one I adhere to. Fanon is fake and we can make of it what we want, and I want the pretty ship name!
#I tend to use Japanese names and culture#because I minored in Japanese and lived in Japan for awhile#I use Chinese and other Asian-country concepts as I become aware of them#the show itself deliberately mixes cultures across the board#probably because they realized making the Fire Nation == Japan would be#Uh#Rather on the nose#Historically speaking

People keep claiming Chinese BL manhua really only have stories featuring toxic male leads, so I offered to give recommendations with green flags... Someone finally said yes, so here's what I typed up in response!:
I Ship My Rival x Me:
One of my personal favourites!
Based on the hilarious novel, commonly known as I Ship My Adversary x Me and also has an audio drama adaptation on MaoEr FM. Basically a story about two actors who are seen as complete rivals by everyone except the actors themselves, which annoys the main character (Wei Yanzi) enough that when he discovers there are actual fans who ship them instead of pit them against one another, heâs so excited he sort of starts shipping them too (in like, an abstract, theoretical manner lmao). This of course causes shenanigans as he actually gets to know the person who people ship him with/pit him against, Gu Yiliang.
Gu Yiliang is a true sweetheart and the greenest of green flags. Heâs a complete puppy and I love him. And this means, naturally, the only misunderstandings in this story are of the hilarious kind (youâll know what I mean if you read it lol). đ
This one actually used to be available officially in English on the Bilibili manhuaâs international app before it got shut down, but it recently got picked up by Seven Seas, the company behind a lot of official English translations of danmei (Chinese BL)!
Touch Your World:
A literally colour-blind boy (as in, he cannot see colour at all and only sees things in black and white) discovers someone who he can see colour on. This person is a designer who has suffered past betrayal and trauma that has caused him to shut himself up and grow much more on edge, but this chance meeting draws both parties out of their shells.
Pixiuâs Eatery, No Way Out:
Not a green flag top in the traditional sense, but here we meet the mythical Pixiu: an ancient Chinese mythical creature who now runs a restaurant. While heâs a penny-pincher with a temper and he doesnât get along with his love interest at first (a ghost named Wen Xi who he finds suspicious due to Wen Xiâs ties to a past rival of his named Taotie), Pixiu and Wen Xi eventually grow, quite naturallyâand hilariously!âinto a found family.
The Wife Is First:
Based on a novel of pretty much the same name (and is written by the same author as the popular manhua and donghua, No Doubt in Us (a heterosexual body-swap romance, which also has a subtle gay side ship)). Here we meet Jing Shao just as heâs about to lose everything: once a royal and a powerful general, he has been betrayed by all those around himâŠexcept the husband he has never treated well.
As such, when we first meet him, we actually witness hisâand his husbandâsâdeaths. But then he awakens and finds himself back in time to the night right after he was forced to wed this husband of his, and Jing Shao vows to treat him well from now on because he stuck with him through thick and thin despite everything.
Donât Say You Love Me:
A high school romance with a supernatural twist: Lin Yutong was confessed to by his best friend, Qin Weiyun, at their graduation party. When he drunkenly freaked out and ran away, Qin Weiyun was hit by a car during the chaseâŠ
Devastated by his loss, Lin Yutong quickly wakes up to find himself back at the start of his high school journey, right before he meets Qin Weiyun⊠And this time, he wants to keep Qin Weiyun safe.
But his overly familiar attitude at first gets the wary Qin Weiyun a tad suspicious, because heâs actually quite an aloof person.
The author and artist of this one is also behind another popular manhua titled Your Dream Is Delicious, which is about a demon named Yi Kui who discovers he enjoys eating the nightmares of Lin You. This eventually leads to themâyou guessed itâfalling in love.
Itâs Not That I Want to Wear Womenâs Clothing:
Our main character is hired to crossdress to help this CEO get over his gynophobia (fear of touching women) without him knowing. Naturally, this leads to an awkward romantic journey of both identities of our main character getting close to this CEOâŠwho at first glance seems like the typical cold and aloof CEO type, except heâs actually quite a sweetheart.
Salt Friend:
A slice-of-life high school story about the âschool bullyâ named Tong Yang whoâs actually a crybaby and the aloof person named Xiao Zhen who discovers him crying. While the two donât seem like theyâd get along at first glance, this quickly becomes a friends-to-lovers story that navigates family drama alongside the romance.
Howâd I Get a Heroineâs Script?:
A transmigration story with a twist. Chao Yi is wheelchair-bound but finds himself eventually as a young lord in what is basically a palace drama (court politics, intrigue, family drama, all that good stuff). His System, Qin Que, tasks him with wooing the difficult 7th prince, Gu Yunheng, who smiles on the surface but is quite cold in actuality.
Despite the two getting off on the wrong footâmostly because Gu Yunheng is really hard to get close toâthey soon end up as unlikely alliesâŠespecially since thereâs a lot of secrets, such as regarding the death of the body Chao Yiâs occupying, the scheming princes, and even Gu Yunheng himself.
See You My King:
Zhang Li, a student interested in what is basically ancient Egypt, goes on an expedition to the ruined civilization and nearly loses his life. Except at the same time, he discovers an ancient tomb with a statue that actually comes to life and saves himâŠ
And this statue even follows him home. This statue is sweet and loving despite its inability to speak, and Zhang Li grows attached to it (or him)⊠But then the statue falls apart and Zhang Li is devastated.
In wishing for a miracle to bring them back together, the statueâs stone heart sends Zhang Li back in timeâŠto when this ancient civilization is still present. And thatâs how he discovers his stone statue is the âtyrant kingâ of this region, and as cruel as he seems at first glance, both this king and Zhang Li eventually grow close and unfold the different sides to one another that makes them inseparable in the face of all kinds of threats.
Trapping the Foxy Doctor:
A doctor and a psychiatrist meetâŠexcept it doesnât seem like a perfect love story at first glance. Not because the doctor is traditionally foxy (seductive and/or cunning), but because heâs so silly and on-the-nose that he initially kind of rubs the psychiatrist the wrong way. Except, of course, with the kind of sunny sincerity displayed by our doctor Zhi Banyi, you canât resist him for longâŠ
And the psychiatrist, Lin Li, is himself quite a polite soul despite his complex upbringing. As such, the two end up together through a series of cases where they have to collaborate and help clients, with a lot of shenanigans sprinkled in between (including the fact Lin Li has a side-job live-streaming as a womanâand âsheâ just so happens to be Zhi Banyiâs favourite streamer lol).
Pirouette Into My Heart aka Salad Days:
You know the âhe was a skater boy and she did balletâ kind of set-up? Well here we have a boxer and a ballet dancerâŠand hey, âcan I make it any more obviousâ?
This one is basically a feel-good story of the century. Itâs childhood friends to lovers, and itâs soft and cuddly and encouraging, as we follow the main character, Jiang Shen, in achieving his ballet dreams. And on every step of the way, heâs accompanied by the boxer Bai Jinyi, whoâs also chasing his own dreams.
The draw of this one is that while thereâs obviously conflict to drive the plot along, itâs ultimately a comforting story, so you get all warm and squishy inside reading it. Bai Jinyi and Jiang Shen are very supportive of one another, as is everyone around them.
Thereâs even extras at the very end that swap the classes of the two main characters, which makes for a similarly compelling AU. đ€
Beryl and Sapphire:
Not always BL but often is. What do I mean by that? Well itâs a story that can switch to any universe even as the characters stay the same, and some worlds are just one-off gags while some are whole story arcs. The original manhua features stick figures, so if you really want to experience this one, Iâd recommend the donghua. The first season also cleverly shows the main characters as actors in the OP, which explains all the world-switching pretty easily haha.
Donât Pick Up Boyfriends from the Trash Bin:
Unfortunately Iâm not sure the manhua for this one is still ongoing, but the original novel (all about transmigration and hopping multiple worlds) 100% features a green flag top.
The Guy Inside Me:
I know the title sounds sexual lol but itâs actually a joke about how itâs a body-swap story. đ
The original Chinese title is âThis Question Is Too Difficultâ) and of course, the author also wrote Fake Slackers, which has two very smart students act like terrible ones due to not wanting trouble.
Falling to Where I Belong:
The thing about this one is that the top is 100% a total green flag... It's the main character that's more of a red flag, in the sense he at first only asks the top out to humiliate him due to a misunderstanding.
But it's still a heartfelt story filled with regret and growth, and I did really like the portrayal of Cheng Feichi. Personally I think the manhua humanizes him a bit more than the novel since we didn't really get his POV in the novel that often, but I did hope for even more emotion in the ending... Still, it was a satisfying read, and while I would like to comfort the main character, Zhen Yeming, over his regrets, I really want to just give all the good things to Cheng Feichi, who definitely deserves it after everything he went through.
More Than Brothers:
For the "non-freaks" out there, they're not actual brothers, donât worry; not adopted brothers either. Just a guy who saw his younger friend as his broâŠuntil this friend disappeared from his life and apparently got into a bad crowd⊠Except in reality he is being harassed and is struggling to leave his abusive family.
The Protagonist Just Wants to Fall in Love:
Kind of a classic in the transmigration genre, except now we get multiple worlds in multiple arcs. Our protagonists are Systems on their final mission, aiming to become human by the end of it, and their task is to guide their protagonists away from the path of "darkening" (essentially corruption).
And each and every one of these systems do so by getting their protagonist to fall in love with them lol.
Unsurprisingly, my favourite arc so farâin the manhua at least!âis the historical one between the advisor and the emperor, but the thirdâand currently ongoing as the time of me writing thisâworld between two university students who started getting close during military training and by playing games is also quite cute.
And okay, man I could really keep going, especially with the manhua that are based on novels, but this post is already really long asjakfl. It was, in fact, so fucking long YouTube wouldn't even let me post it at first until I cut it down AMFKGSJDFGS.
But I still want to at least give a shout out to some of the manhua with pretty healthy, green flag tops/gongs!:
Like Han Yuan, despite the characters not getting along at first and Yu Han being rather aloof to the spoiled Luo Linyuan, is still quite sweet at its core. Lovely Allergen is as well, even with their "brotherly" relationship being the forefront of the conflict between Song Yu and Yue Zishi.
Another kind I wanted to bring up is the ones where their worlds or stories are dark, but the characters aren't necessarily. Like The Film Emperor, He Insisted on Being My Patron has a very green flag gong (he's such a puppy!), but he and the main character are up against the reddest of red flags of a villain LMDFKGSJFD.
It's also not a manhua I think people who want green flag leads would necessarily enjoy, given that beyond being "darker," it also goes into the territory of fan service-y and "problematic" nsfw content, but again, the male lead is really quite sweet to the main character despite the shitty situation they're in.
And I thought of Bu Chonghua from Tunhai aka Swallowing the Seas (another one based on a novel), since the main character there, Wu Yu, comes to see Bu Chonghua as so good and just that he pushes him away because he feels like he can't dirty such a man with his own darkness, both in his past and personality. It's a trope I really enjoy.
I'll briefly mention some â ïž spoilers â ïžbut the reason I wanted to highlight it is because: the latest chapter of the manhua has Bu Chonghua overhear Wu Yu saying he likes Bu Chonghua, and this is after Wu Yu disappeared and Bu Chonghua is worried he skipped town for good. He follows Wu Yu, all while wondering if the like Wu Yu holds for him is the same as his liking of Wu Yu, and when Wu Yu is about to be gravely injured in an underground fighting ring, Bu Chonghua steps in to save him... The chapter ends with Wu Yu holding him back pleading with him to stop because it's not worth dirtying his hands with such a man as his opponent, and that's such a delicious flavour of angst because like...Wu Yu thinks it's fine for he himself to fight against such a person, but he doesn't want Bu Chonghua to. ;-;
Oops. I didn't mean for this to become a deeper ramble of Tunhai KMSGFKGHSJ. It's just interesting to me since Tunhai and its prequel, Poyun aka Breaking Through the Clouds, may not have what the people who prefer green flag tops want in terms of content, but its tops are technically not that much of a red flag either.
Which also get us to the kind of stories where plot can also sort of outweigh whether a top/gong is a green flag or not. Like No Arguing With Mr. Mo has two characters who struggle greatly in their relationship, with the question of "are they in love?" being an overarching issue for them, meaning it's not exactly healthy, and prevents them from being fully either green or red flags.
I also didn't bring up a lot of historical/xianxia manhua, which I'm sure some people may disagree with... Like the leads in Tianbao Fuyao Lu are arguably quite good, and while I haven't read Dinghai Fusheng Lu yet, I assume it's in a similar boat as something set in the same world.
And then there's the ones that develop into green flags... Like Mo Ran starts off awful, yes, but he does become much better later on!! But I don't think that's what those people after green flags want to hear lol. Plus I'd argue Erha is best experienced in novel (or audio drama) form over the manhua anywayâthe manhua feels more like something made for established fans in my opinion.
Regardless, I hope this shows that with so many listed above, many manhua actually feature male leads who really do care for their love interests in a healthy, respectful way, whether they're 100% green flags or they develop into green flags or they're not even complete green flags. ^^
Edit: Oh I forgot to link my full list of danmei/baihe manhua recs HMSKFJSKS. I currently donât have any summaries, tags, or content warnings in this list though, but thereâs quite the range of stories!:
