there are two instances of liu xiao breaking the fourth wall/getting special treatment that i remember: his PV, where he interacts with the viewer ("shh, the film is about to start") + "holds" his name, and the OP, where the credits got colored in red to spell out his name (also not 4th wall breaking but it's worth mentioning the "DON'T TRUST HIM" in morse code right behind him lol)

i've been seeing people guess that he's actually interacting with us in some way, maybe in relation to his power, but i've always doubted this opinion because link click doesn't seem the type of show to do actual 4th wall breaking. but it is true that these little things are intentional and suspicious, i just think we're missing the why.

however ☝️ everyone's been pointing out a lot of continuity errors in these past three episodes. from xia fei's elevator to even cheng xiaoshi's eyes to the background of the photo studio in ep 1, and more. and they all could be genuine mistakes, but it's also hard to believe a time travel show has This many continuity mistakes. many have also brought up that this feels like different timelines getting stitched together, and then my mind reminded me of All That about liu xiao and the 4th wall, and it made me wonder if it could be connected. i don't know how to word it, but maybe something about the yingdu chapter (as in what we see) being some kind of attempt at merging/fixing the timelines from liu xiao? or definitely something about his (true) superpower being a really huge kind of manipulation, so much so that even us - the viewers, are getting manipulated by the editing of the show itself

what if your doppelgänger wasn’t evil it was just a person. what if your doppelgänger wasn’t trying to replace you it was just trying to learn to be a person and you were the best model it had. what if your doppelgänger looked at you with your eyes and said with your voice that it just wanted to be loved. what then.

i still frequently think about a story from one of my high school classmates, of the day his windshield completely iced over before he had to leave for school, and his mother (who, for clarity’s sake, is not from nor has ever been to poland) said “don’t worry, i know an old polish trick” and threw a whole kettle of boiling water over the windshield, shattering it instantly

Happy early Valentines day, have something completely out of my wheelhouse! I wasn't joking in my previous comic, Stobotnik has me in a stranglehold (though as a heads up to anyone who doesn't follow me: I don't expect I'll be making more, I'm sorry 😔This is definitely a one-off)

Going through some old art of mine got me missing doing stylized, cartoony stuff so I thought this would be a good opportunity to push myself to bring some of that back into my life. Unfortunately the universe had it out for this thing and tried to stop me with pneumonia (it failed HAH) and every time I got closer to finishing it, I got struck with a new, more hellish stage of illness. I had 2 other panels I wanted to do for this and just had to tap out early😭

TFW your evil gay uncles think they can fakeout makeout you but one of them is 6 ft+ and wearing bright red.

Little Stan getting manipulated by Bill has excellent angst potential but consider.

Stanley just, keeps tricking Bill. Because Bill would definitely massively underestimate Stanley and how far he’ll go to protect Ford (like in the actual show). We also know Stanley has the street smarts between the twins and could absolutely tell Bill is full of it.

And because Bill would absolutely loose his mind if he kept getting foiled by a snot nosed eight year old that isn’t even supposed to be here

I like to think that he doesn’t even try that hard he just does not even care about bill

Hello ghost trick fandom

Welcome to transmasculinity. You got two options, what'll it be.

1) Genderessentialism (men are inherently designed to play a stoic, strong role, so you gotta push down your emotions and accept that you'll get no support from a conservative society)

Or

2) Genderessentialism (men are inherently predatory, evil, callous monsters, so you gotta push down your emotions when we generalize you to be a horrible person with too much privilege and you gotta accept that you will get no support from a liberal society)
