Foggy's Stuff

Scene 1 (Title card): The main character (we’ll call her MC from now on) grabs her bag, keys, and mask and leaves her house. 

Scene 2: MC removes her mask and sits down at a table. Two of her friends are talking with expressions and gestures that make it look like they’re complaining, or maybe gossiping. MC signs, “What’s wrong?” One of her friends signs, “Nothing, I’ll explain later.” MC looks disappointed, and she turns to look at her laptop instead of talking with her friends. 

Scene 3: A teacher is speaking to the class. The teacher walks in front of the ASL interpreter, blocking MC’s view. MC signs, “Can you please not walk in front of the interpreter? I can’t see.” The teacher nods yes, but then walks in front of the interpreter again. MC looks exasperated. Then the interpreter signs to indicate that the bell is ringing, so MC packs up her laptop, puts her mask on, and leaves class. 

Scene 4: MC is in the hallway, looking at her phone. A stranger gets her attention and tries to talk to her, but MC indicates that she can’t hear, and instead pulls out a piece of paper and a pen and offers it to the stranger so that they can write what they want to say. The stranger scowls and shakes their head, then waves goodbye and walks away. MC rolls her eyes in frustration. 

Scene 5: MC is in her car now, at a drive thru restaurant. She holds up her phone so that the employee can see it, but the employee calls their manager instead. The manager shows up and takes MC’s order, then returns with a drink, saying “Sorry!” MC smiles and takes the drink. MC is obviously trying to be polite, but at this point she’s reaching the end of her patience. 

And honestly? It should include having to spend time living on disability, navigating their district in a wheelchair, and taking public transit.

Jesus Christ.

Title: Sentence pronounced on Mo Xiang Tong Xiu, charged with running illegal business.

Recently, the sentence has been announced on Mo Xiang Tong Xiu, author of Tian Guan Ci Fu, Mo Dao Zu Shi, charged with running illegal business, but the sentence is not to be disclosed.

There has been rampant rumours about the author’s arrest for some time now. Partially the problem is that the Chinese legal system is very opaque. There is no requirement of transparency about who has been arrested, their charge, etc, and as you can see above, their sentence also.

Even a very prominent and mainstream success like Mo Xiang Tong Xiu can be arrested and charged and sentenced in this murky way.

I know many fans saw YouTuber Ms. Xiran’s post and thought that this is a false alarm like last year - it isn’t rumour. It is understandable that Ms. Xiran wants to be careful with the news she shares, and it is also understandable that people don’t want to believe that such an awful thing can happen to the author of a well-known and widely loved work. But what’s happened has happened.

If you log into a Chinese social media platform today, you will not find anyone - anyone - who will deny that this is what’s happened - a sentence was pronounced on Mo Xiang Tong Xiu in the Criminal Court of Hang Zhou on 10th of November, 2020. The sentence is undisclosed.

I was wary of making assertive statements in my last post discussion arrest of danmei authors in general, but this time there is, I’m afraid, no space for any benefit of doubt.

In case anyone is still unconvined, here is attached a screencap of the actual sentence statement. You won’t find anything specific because it remains undisclosed, but you will find the reference code to the criminal case: （2020）浙0102刑初12号. If anyone’s interested, feel free to look it up in the online catalogue of the Chinese criminal courts. It’s there.

I know this must be hard to digest but this is the reality. Your beloved author and her work come from a fascist country where the report culture, hate culture, pure collective malice from complete strangers and the government with the most harsh censorship laws worked together to send an innocent, internationally-celebrated artist into jail, while companies continue to milk money out of her works. Let that sink in. 

Her real name is as stated below in the picture. This woman gave you Wei Wuxian, Lan Wangji and all those beautiful characters from a beautiful story so at least remember that.

If you can’t or don’t want to come out yet, it’s okay. You’re fine. ♡

I’ll say it again – one of the reasons that people with breasts and vulvas know so little about how they work and how to keep them healthy and what’s normal and abnormal, is because even the most casual discussion about our bodies is seen as pornographic.

When your body is sexualized – whether you want it to be or not – and information about the things relevant to you and your health are regarded as explicit content, it’s not only harder to access that information, there’s a stigma or penalty attached, especially from society.
