REAL TALK 2!! these are tanghulu, northern chinese candy traditionally made with hawthorns + associated w childhood nostalgia (meaning these are the spiderpeople we grew up with.)
it’s actually rlly sweet, i love seeing the thought put into these posters
@aloedotjello
THAT’S WANG QIYE!!! she’s on douyin and she makes a whole BUNCH of these types of videos!!!! i don’t have dy myself but rongzhi on tumblr has translated a lot of them :)
i think chinese people deserve to thoughtfully criticise fanfiction of one of the worst colonial atrocities to ever occur to us w/o whites jumping in and accusing us of review bombing bc they think this is on any level comparable to a star wars ship. but alright
The author of to gaze upon wicked gods is being mass harassed both publicly and in private. Her book is being review bombed. Molly is a Chinese author who wrote a complex and morally twisty “enemies and lovers” book that’s being called a “colonizer romance” this ain’t okay —-
AND ANOTHER THING! the text on the side are puns!!! red says “祝你儿童节快乐” — “wishing you a happy children’s day” (atsv was released the day after children’s day in china); except 祝 is swapped with its almost-homophone 蛛 (meaning spider)!! (1/2)
meanwhile blue says “across the multiverse”; except 穿 (“across/crossing”) has been swapped with 串 (“string”)!!!
I sound like a massive nerd rn but ARGHHHH ITS SO COOL . THE DETAILS U GUYS. SPIDERVERSEEEEE
(2/2)

or they didn’t want them which is why they shipped them off to the place on earth that was furthest away from them instead of accepting refugees 😭
it took you thirty thousand lives for you to finally gain a backbone? thirty thousand for whose murders you, who pulled unrwa funding from, you who abstained from a ceasefire vote from, are directly responsible for?
FUCK YOU.
the 1 star reviews are each of them well thought out and written by those who have received arcs. every author from rf kuang to colleen hoover receives 1 star reviews because that’s how it works in the real world. but that doesn’t really fit your stupid online discourse does it
like coming from 1. i see lots of ppl acting like just by virtue of being gay a ship is automatically revolutionary when its just the same thing as a mid straight ship that got jumped. + it’s like no u r also kinda mid. just as misogynistic as well even. but mostly mid LOLOL
@ReKO_Wei
muratans have naturally red hair, it's like a genetic trait or smth. "The Children of Murata, the Lady of Fire are a hardy people blessed with a head of fiery-red hair."
The American-centric way people on this hellsite called Twitter look at otome games is so annoying. “Skinny white brunette MC’s” are 9.5 times out of 10 ASIAN WOMEN. They’re usually made in Japan or China or South Korea, so the MC’s LOOK LIKE THEIR ORIGINAL TARGET AUDIENCE.
all jokes aside this looks like some kind of preserving resin/liquid (it leaked from the animals as well). which adds to my butterfly haruka thing; that he might be "preserving" either himself or his victims by killing thme to keep them perfect 5eva
ok but even if we vote the guilty prisoners innocent this trial, they still won’t be as open and changed as the innocent prisoners bc they’ve experienced what happens when they’re voted guilty & won’t trust and thank es the same way
not only are these the most mild checks ever & more severe is performed in american high schools, but this is a high speed rail. those can take you from beijing to shanghai in like 4 hours; so ofc theyre fucking monitored you stupid 鬼子
can’t see quotes but please keep in mind that we don’t have a word for ‘tan’ in chinese, so we just use ‘black’ to mean tan. n while it would b awesome if he rlly did have dark skin, given hyv’s track record i would not get my hopes up
obligatory "pomegranates are linked to the underworld in greek mythology, particularly being trapped there once you eat them (yet another thing linking shidou to greek myth)" tweet
@TYRANTDREAM
“tHiS iS mAnIpUlaTiOn” black people are dying and this is what they care about? a minecraft youtuber using his platform to bring attention to it? i’m so done with antis omg
※ So the Second Trial commencement video has confirmed two things:
1. Mikoto has DID, which is why he can't be restrained by Milgram and why he can attack Es.
2. Kotoko is the one who attacked Fuuta, Mikoto, and Mahiru; not Milgram itself.
so putting it all together, my theory is that haruka's mom mistreated him (probably for neurodivergency/learning disability?) & he wanted to be hugged and loved by her again like she did before he was diagnosed or something :(
@mspaintpics
you are so right. he doesnt even say anything he just passes the wine bottle and leaves. ("*fist pump* yes! we are back to being best brothers!")
@SO0u0o
not helped by the fact he’s so difficult to draw 😭 like if u don’t get the proportions of his face EXACTLY right & avoid soft blending more than 0.2% of anything he won’t look like himself
the reviewers of To Gaze Upon Wicked Gods have been continually harassed by the author and friends for posting their book reviews on Goodreads, this is their statement from Instagram that I’m reposting here.
link click spoilers
GOD the funeral actually being for chen bin & the death being liu min’s ties so well into link click’s theme of living through others’ lives but like . they really had us going there for like five months thinking lu guang was fr gonna die 😭😭
atp it’s an unholy combination of anti-intellectualism, excusing bigotry, and misogyny (internalised or otherwise).
no more “i’m just a girl”! the world has progressed past the need for “i’m just a girl”!
i lied i’m back 2 clarify cuz some of u r missing the point, this isn’t a hate post it’s just her personal thoughts on her own blog, bc someone asked her to explain 😭😭 it’s just that even if it Is a gacha game, a lot of the designs r objectively +
if you're sad this is a sign to draw your two biggest comfort characters as the steven meme. yeah my ocs my comfort character. yeah my ooak lagoonas my comfort character.
Got qrted on the muu tweet by a french person going “fuck u not all french ppl r bad ugh i hate americans” or smth . My brother in christ i’m talking about kusunoki muu
