local man sees nothing wrong with confessing his undying love via promising to invade and conquer his crush’s hometown so she can go home, and laying the bones of those who have wronged her at her feet so she can enjoy the sunrise from the best spot in town
dongfang
qingcang is the most perfect man. he’s a terrifyingly powerful and widely reviled sorcerer fueled
entirely by stubbornness and childhood trauma. his only friend is a dragon. he has excellent fashion sense.
he spends time in love with a potted plant.
he’s beautiful.
he is so done with
your shit. he got accidentally body-swap soul-bonded to a cheerful flower fairy
during a prison break. he enters and exits situations in dramatic bursts of smoke
and flames. he has to be taught how to smile. his two settings are “zero
feelings” and “maximum feelings” with absolutely nothing in
between. he thinks genocide is a romantic gesture on par with sunrise viewings
and nourishing soup. he broods a lot. he has never met a problem that he doesn’t try to solve by
offering himself up for unspeakable tortures. he fell in love with the first person
who was ever nice to him. he lets her poison him multiple times. he killed god.
twice. he is–i cannot stress this enough–a tremendous bitch.
nobody is
doing it like him. he’s perfect in every way.
My sister got me to start watching that Love Between a Plant and Hot Topic Or Whatever the Title is cdrama on Netflix and while I have absolutely no emotional investment whatsoever in the romance, I have to admit that this show does scratch a very specific itch I didn’t realize I have, and that is watching a man powerful enough to kill gods being slowly and steadily driven to insanity by a series of small, mundane inconveniences
doing this with anything is an awful hit, but god, there are so many youtube accounts that serve as the last existing records of so many dead people’s voices. feels especially perverse
When is this suppose to happen???

I think it’s so cruel and fitting that the trick Dongfang Qingcang plays on Changheng in Episode 9 is the same one that Tai Sui plays on Dongfang Qingcang later: “Are you going to save her, or your people and homeland?”
I loved the juxtaposition of Chang Heng willingly devoting time & spiritual energy for Orchid because he loves her vs DFQC reluctantly and impatiently gathering dewdrops for Orchid because he needs her ability to repair Destiny Books.
Also Chang Heng, falling in love with a girl because she was nice to you one time is extremely queer of you
TV Executives: “if the strike goes in, you won’t get new episodes of your favorite shows! You won’t get new movies you were looking forward to! Isn’t that terrible, what the writers are doing to you?”
Me: Bitch, that might have been an effective threat in 2007, but we have since survived a Covid shutdown and discovered ways to amuse ourselves while we waited, we can outwait this shit, too. I got a pile of shows saved I haven’t even watched yet, and a Mt. TBR waiting for me.
Compensate (and respect) your writers for their work, assholes.
It’s just hilarious that they’re trying to pull this whole “but your favorite shows!” nonsense.
Oh, you mean the shows you cancel after the third season no matter how good they’re doing to avoid paying writers residuals? The shows that get produced and then never aired because you found a nice tax writeoff? The shows whose writing suffers because the writers’ room got six weeks to write before getting booted and making the showrunner adapt all their scripts? The shows you straight up pulled from your streaming service to scam their crews out of rewatch money?
I will happily sacrifice my shows for the writers that gave them to me, no questions needed, but if anyone tries to say that the blatantly terrible way streaming treats its writers is somehow beneficial to shows, remind them of Infinity Train and Batgirl. That’s the ideal they’re pushing towards if someone doesn’t say no, and we should be thankful that the writers are doing that for us.
Also just. Turn this threat right back into their faces.
“Oh, is your refusal to make a deal with writers going to cause your service to have no new shows that I care about? Okay, thanks for letting me know, I’ll go ahead and cancel until you guys get it sorted out then.”
I like the new Wednesday show but it has Gomez and morticia all wrong. They would LOVE a rooftop sword fight in the rain with an insane opponent obsessed with morticia. Gomez would have a great time in jail!! He’d come home telling stories about how his cell mate tried to kill him because he wouldn’t shit up about his wife! He’d probably stay in touch with the guy! Morticia would be so excited for Wednesday to go insane from her psychic visions. She’d be like omg Gomez our little black flower is experiencing her first madness 🖤 remember when you took me dancing in the insane asylum? They grow up so fast soon she’ll be babbling mindlessly about the unholy power that lurks within <3
