Part 2 of my modern avatar au, The Gaang (part 1)

I'm seeing people denying the actual importance and good quality and merits The Untamed had just for their personal issues.

Folks, you can have your personal tastes, you can repeat the usual discourse novel vs drama all over again, but it's really dumb and blind denying the actual facts: how this drama even after 4 years is still a major hit in cn charts, it won a lot of awards in mailand - many of the most important critics' awards - its popularity count billion views, millions got literally obsessed, not just normal liking, and started a community of content creators. A chinese artist managed to get her paintings based on The Untamed to a museum exhibition in the homeland. Two chinese olympians skaters did their program at China Gran Prix of Figure Skating with The Untamed soundtrack in 2019.

Many international people discovered the danmei genre or cdramas in general thanks to it and approached into this large world after seeing and loving it. Finally this genre got the big deserved attention and not anymore underrated. Thanks to The Untamed's popularity, the english amateur translation of Scum Villain, first in hiatus, then restarted and finally finished. Tencent ordered 2HA's live action right on the crest of The Untamed's popularity. And so on.

The impact that The Untamed had and still has, in Asia and beyond, is truly big and unparalleled. There's no doubt this drama has a special place in many fans' heart and even changed our lives for how much it had rearranged our brains.

Seeing people having trouble admitting these actual facts, attempting to deny it (I've read the crazy opinion that The Untamed is loved mostly by westerns in order to miscredit his true chinese heritage and uh my god???) and spreading fake news, misinformations and biased opinions without even watching the drama, dismissing the good stuff it had, is truly surreal and dishonest. You may not love it, it's your business, but do not pretend it's not loved or worthy of people's love and spread bullshit for simple envy over its success D:

i feel like we are conflating "not realizing you were being lied to" and "accepting/ignoring obvious gross behavior" in the same realm of being Not At Fault. Yeah this is abt James Somerton cause like. Yeah you're not going to notice plagiarism unless youre familiar with the plagiarized work (or someone calls out said plagiarism) that's fine. But like? You aren't irredeemable or anything, but maybe in the future be more critical when someone you respect or like says stuff that's misogynistic or lesbophobic or biphobic or transphobic? Like you don't have to instantly persecute them, but please let that inform how you see them? Don't just write them off as having good intentions or important things to say (even if they do), you can acknowledge those intentions while also acknowledging their faults. Again: it's not an unforgivable sin, but there's a difference in being lied to and listening to someone Say Misogynistic and Bi/Trans/Lesbophobic Shit openly

Comparing Hobie Brown to Zuko is stupid asf for the obvious reasons that they're nothing alike except being alt and even then not the same type(Hobie's punk,Zuko's goth)but also because if Hobie is like any Atla guy it's Aang

Every time I read a review of "Global South" country politics it's always "We are defying the US by doing this and this. And "This and this" is being friends with authoritarian regimes and not giving a fuck about victims of genocide. But hey! International leftist solidarity against the victims of American imperialism :) If you're a victim of any other imperialism then fuck you. We are building stronger relationships with "Usa's rivals" (regimes that are the reason you are suffering rn)

I'm trying not to block people. But there's only so many times I can go 'give people the benefit of the doubt' and then click their blog and what's literally the third or fourth post on their blogs? They talk about middle eastern people like savages who can't control their violent urges. And of course, more than half of them are Americans. After posing for 20 years, the masks that temporarily went up when anti-war activists criticised the American war in the Middle East are slipping, some of you never really believed brown people to be your equals did you? Get the fuck off my blog.

when at the library today i picked up a book abt typography to pick up some more theoretical skills there and to no one's surprise it pretended that european languages were the only languages in the world which like whatever i'll still learn what principles it has to teach and then try to reverse-engineer applications to cn font design based on what i know.

despite not trusting the english-language resources available online to be as in-depth or technical as i desire, i got curious and googled "chinese typographic design" anyway n scrolling through the introduction to the first result, you can kind of tell it's not written with a chinese-speaking audience in mind, or at the very least an audience with some semblance of chinese cultural sensitivities bc its section headed by the words "navigating the simplified and traditional divide" goes on to basically say it's an Aesthetic Decision which. well. is certainly a way to pretend you're avoiding politics.

i ended up having a like. 30 minute conversation with some of those "freedom convoy" people. was at the bus stop. they were wearing trump hats. i ended up roped into the conversation because i was so taken aback at seeing one in public i was just. staring at it. ive never felt more depressed about someone elses life and beliefs than when i talked to them.

Guys this is your chance to block the tankies, clear out your leftist spaces. If someone's supporting a country or organisation that's committing war crimes or genocide, or supports bigotries like antisemitism, just block them.

I was *this* close to asking about the resist and elongate follow-up, but then I see the Vincent wips and 👀 extra-curricular is looking vv interesting~ your Vin is adorable~💖

pinksparkl's talking about this game (asks still open!)

VINCENT!! discord can confirm that i spend far too much time compiling various hanfu pictures for chinese!vincent and it's honestly the best decision i've ever made.

(this is DEFINITELY going to have to go under the cut. vincent AND vega in the same post?? think of the children!)

no, seriously. it gets sexy. MINORS DNI.

extracurriculum is....... exactly what it says on the tin, to be honest. i THINK it began as a dare on discord, and it's basically turning into a short smut exercise because i need the practice lmao 🫠🫠 there's functionally no plot, it's just possessive vincent fucking lovely in the stairwell because they're hot and he can. what more does a man need 😇😇

and, like, look - i have the doc open anyway, so we might as well...... 🥰🥰

i've mentioned before that i'd love to write a wedding fic, but i've never really had a good way of doing it - easy pickings is basically my way of manufacturing that scenario! i very much have a soft spot for morticia-and-gomez, that's-my-wife!, i'll-burn-the-world-for-you type characters, ESPECIALLY villains, and there's really nobody better for that than vega.

(also fun fact! the name of this document comes from possibly the most bizarre place, but i promise it's related. it takes a lot of sitting, getting chicks to hatch!)

this website is not beating the piss poor reading comprehension allegations

[lostandbackagain]

this book is so psychologically distressing I might actually have a breakdown

[sassyandclassy94]

The Greatest Generation would be so heart broken to see that the American youth is now promoting the very thought and propaganda that they fought and gave their lives to keep OUT of America.

Back when I was studying World War II in high school I never would’ve dreamed that my beloved United States would be embracing and pushing the same exact propaganda as the Third Reich.

Had we lived in Nazi Germany many of you would’ve sold out the Jews and the Christians who stood up to Hitler and it shows.

the biggest thing i hate abt the absolute ignorance towards queercoding is that it is such a painfully priveleged and white take to have. like damn sorry chinese media isn't queer enough for you bc yk of course all queerness has a universal meter that isn't individual to different cultures and laws at all.
