#except it's tuesday

[10thmusemoon]

Ok i gotta know more about "mentally constructing my boss's dong for my waifu's enjoyment" xD

yesss! It actually wasn't Moshangyqy but Bingqiu+yqy!!

Basically, pre-transmigration SY's curiosity over slash fic is prompted by a convo in the forums + by his sister's fujoshi ways. However, he can't read MoBing for reasons he's too uncomfortable to think about, and he hates SQQ so QiJiu or Binggqiu is just out of the question. There's a limited amount of men in PIDW that are actually fully fleshed out and none that he actually thinks are on LBH's level except. Well...

Yue Qingyuan is his favorite non-Binghe cultivator. And he still isn't over how what happened to him. (🤝) His reasoning is this: LBH as the protagonist would, of course, never bottom for someone but if he HAD to wouldn't it make sense for it to be the one cultivator he couldn't directly take on? Also, PIDW canon suggests YQY is taller so it makes sense. The first fic he reads is YQY subjugating LBH and it leaves a sour taste in his mouth that he almost quits this whole endeavor to learn about the ways of the Green JJ sisters. Yes Yue Qingyuan and Luo Binghe are foes but so what!? Isn't this an alternate reality? In what world would Bingge take that and not fight tooth and nail if he was being forced?! And what about YQY's kindly big brother nature??? Too OOC!!

Doesn't Binghe deserve a little kindness? Surely something must exist-

Which is how SY goes down the YueBing rabbit hole, reading everything in the tags and eventually deciding that while it is all extremely implausible and OOC, he can see the appeal. Deleting his fic account and wiping his history, he calls his foray into the slash world of fanfic Finished. Now he never has to think about it again. (He does, he thinks about it a lot.)

After he transmigrates, there's more than one meeting where his brain is stuck in a loop of 'Don't think about zhanmeng-shixiong's dick, don't think about his dick, don't think about his dick-'

anyways, canon happens, he's happily married, and there's an instance where LBH is handling things in the demon realm but SY stays on QJP. Binghe decides to surprise SY in the dream realm only to see a naked YQY making sweet love to (and he is already screaming crying throwing up at this point)....HIM?!?!?

so, one aspect of catelyn which i think is underrated (certainly the biggest adaptation loss which nobody talks about) is her, let's say superstitiousness, or better yet, let's call it genre-savviness, being one of the few adult characters open to magic and the supernatural in this fantasy world. we first meet her in the godswood, home of gods which are not truly hers, yet she is still very aware of their power. when she and ned talk of the deserter he killed, he hopes he won't have to go with the nw to deal with mance rayder, but she has even more fear of that idea bc there are worse things beyond the wall than just wildlings. ned scoffs and says she's been listening to old nan too much, but she's right. we already know from the prologue that she's right! and here she is, understanding the genre of their world better than her husband, who was actually born and spent his earliest years in this northern land of deep magic, listening to old nan's stories. same with the direwolves, where she was uncomfortable with them at first, but later believed in them as guardians from the old gods even after robb had lost his own faith. and once again, we know she's right even if she doesn't know the evidence to back up her instincts, bc summer and shaggydog did not fail bran and rickon and robb was almost certainly a warg like his brothers. (perhaps making it more fitting that she's the one brought back as a fantasy vengeance monster, not ned and robb, the most unbelieving dead starks.) and in her 2nd agot chapter, everyone focuses on her ambition in wanting ned to agree to the hand job (pun intended) and sansa's betrothal, and while she does recognize the value of their daughter being a future queen more than ned does, that's only her stated argument bc she thinks it's rational enough for ned to listen to. (if ambitious matchmaking were as important to her as to her father she never would have made those frey betrothals fandom loves to blame her for.) in her own head there's a deeper urge driving her. she keeps thinking of the dead direwolf with antlers in its throat, an omen which filled her with dread from the first she heard of it, before robert's arrival, and thinking of it again is what makes her desperate to convince ned not to refuse robert. she had to make him see. and really, she's not wrong, as jon snow would say. the dead direwolf was an omen of ned and robert getting each other killed. it's just one of those misread portents, with no way of knowing the danger to ned was in his loyalty to robert, not conflict with him. BUT the next time she's dealing with baratheons, she knows exactly what she's talking about. it's catelyn, not brienne, who sees the shadow slaying renly, and explains that it was stannis who did that through some dark magic. with no way of knowing how it was achieved and no prior expectation that such a thing were ever possible, she realizes with no hestitation that stannis was guilty and that his red witch was capable of pulling this off somehow. really, the only instinct of the supernatural she's wholly wrong about is her insistence that varys gathered his knowledge through some dark enchantment. however, though that might offend varys, given his own personal experience with a sorcerer, i'd say it's a reasonable assumption without knowing the dude had children moving through walls everywhere like oversized rodents. and imo it just shows she had a healthy respect and awe for varys's power which most other characters lack.

oh, oh, and let's not forget that she also believed in the curse of harrenhal, from her own childhood and the stories old nan told her kids. "and every house that held Harrenhal since had come to misfortune. Strong it might be, but it was a dark place, and cursed. 'I would not have Robb fight a battle in the shadow of that keep,' Catelyn admitted." sure, that wasn't enough to save robb, but he did not die from the curse of harrenhal. that doom was meant for his enemies from tywin lannister to roose bolton.

On Voting in America

So one of the most profound comments on routine chores that I've ever encountered was, hilariously, the Pickle Rick episode of "Rick & Morty," where (after a lot of shenanigans have already ensued) this therapist absolutely lays Rick out:

"I have no doubt that you would be bored senseless by therapy, the same way I'm bored when I brush my teeth and wipe my ass. Because the thing about repairing, maintaining, and cleaning is: it's not an adventure. There's no way to do it so wrong you might die. It's just work. And the bottom line is some people are okay going to work and some people, well, some people would rather die. Each of us gets to choose."

I think about this at least once a week — usually while I'm doing my laundry or sweeping or some other task that needs doing and won't get me anything more than clean clothing or a dog-hair-free floor. There's no Pulitzer for wiping down your microwave or scrubbing your toilet; no one's awarding you for getting all the dishes out of the sink. At best you have the satisfaction of crossing it off your list.

Voting is very much the same (and I'm talking about the US here, as an American). Sure, you sometimes get a sticker; but nobody's going to cheer for you. There's no adventure here, no potential for anything more than crossing something off of a list. It's a chore, something that needs doing in order to repair, maintain, and yes even clean. So I get why people don't like doing it.

And I've decided I don't give a shit.

Do it anyway. Your country takes astonishingly little from you — taxes, the once-in-a-blue-moon jury duty, and a theoretical draft that hasn't been used in over half a century and likely will never be again — but it asks you (asks! not requires! not demands!) to vote once a year. It's not always easy; especially in conservative states, the impediments to vote can be ridiculous. But it is once a year and unlike in our nation's all-too-recent past, you will not die if you do it.

In fact, the worst outcome from voting these days is that the person or issue that you vote for loses — but you won't know if they lose until after the election. Polls are less accurate now, for a whole host of reasons; you cannot know until after the election who or what will win. This makes your vote more valuable than possibly ever before.

Use that power. Not because it's exciting or even rewarding, but because your vote is what keeps our country's metaphorical teeth from falling out and our metaphorical ass from stinking.

Brush, wipe, vote.

Look who came for a visit and formally met the family! Alex got everyone's approval, even Noemí's (who seemed a little apprehensive at first. She thought, "Why wear black when there are so many bright, beautiful colors in this world?"). Alex came out of their shell bit by bit, especially because of the Alegrías' open arms <3

Did some exercising today before work, and now I'm regretting it. That's what I get for doing it when I can instead of following a routine. Appreciate my pain to make it worth it.
