and yessss, you did get me into the white vault!!! it's one of my all time faves, i've listened to it 3x over. made it through 9eps of goshawk and then life got busy and then i fully forgot abt it until right now

Er Ha was the worst, it gave me nightmares. They also straight-ified the live action from what I remember ALSO NO SURPRISE IT DIDN'T SURVIVE THE CENSORSHIP BOARD WITH THE AMOUNT OF FUCKED UP STUFF IN IT

I mean I was surprised they made mo dao zu shi tbh, but then the actors went through a lot of shit later. The only complaint about TGCF I have is that they did not make Xie Lian muscular as hell like that man used to break boulders on his chest bffr 🤧

trashy but not fun suckssss 😔 esp since it was immediately bad 😭 i don't do it v often bc i tend not to read books without knowing a lot abt them beforehand (i love spoilers tbh), but i've for sure had to dnf a book here and there cause it was just bad right off the bat.

yes! brennan lee mulligan dimension 20!!! the first season of fantasy high is free on yt but i luckily have a friend with a friend with a dropout subscription, so i've been able to listen to more d20 on their account. thank you dropout encouraged password sharing.

the SA trend in danmei is for sure a thing that both sucks so bad and is still prevalent. i had an acquaintance who wanted me to read er ha so bad and i wanted nothing more than to NOT read it. i'm lucky enough to have mostly read danmei without SA, thank god, but i def have to vet them thoroughly before i start reading. i have yet to read tgcf, but it is FOR SURE on my tbr list. my dad actually watched the donghua and recommended it to me w/o knowing that i knew abt it lmaooo.

I love that you love spoilers <3 I think I accidentally spoil things even though it is not my intention to lol. I will take spoilers only if it comes packaged as a trigger-warning which is very hypocritical of me lol but yes.

Ahhhh I'm so jealous ;-; I honestly only get my daily dose of laughter through the youtube shorts (especially sam says). I wanted to watch the drag queens episode for dimension 20 really bad because I kept seeing fun little snippets.

ALSO ER HA IS THE FUCKING DANMEI THAT SCARRED ME FOR LIFE ;-; me and my friend read it and we're both horrified. She sent me a picture of the book when she was out in barnes and nobles once and I immediately had a visceral reaction. I hate that book with a passion, there was so much rape and SA and they wanted us to ship them 👁️👁️🔪 they also made a live action show I think...

Read it omg. I think I have the free pdf lying around somewhere (this is before the whole plagiarism drama and the official translation coming out). If you need it, let me know, I'll look through my files lol.

But also backtracking on the supernatural podcast recommendations, did I ever get you into this:

really funny that you hated your book club book, lmaoooo. i similarly read a FIVE book series called Leighton U that i simultaneously hated and enjoyed that my college roommate recommended to me. the writing was absolutely painful and SO so repetitive, but it was fun to hate and the books are trashy gay smut so they were fun in that way too.

i've actually never read the little prince, but that sounds fun! i've permanently moved back to my childhood bedroom and have been thinking abt rereading some of my childhood faves, too. i'm giving my room a total makeover and had to pack away my books, but made sure to keep out some of those childhood faves to reread someday.

i ALSO have been listening to sherlock & co!! i love it sm!! never heard of ghost inspectors but i've been looking for smth more supernatural, so i'll def check it out!! i've been mostly reading lately, but as i've slowly been working on my room, i'll sometimes listen to dimension 20: fantasy high instead of music. idk if dnd live plays are your thing, but i'm on s2 and it's really really good.

as for recs, i just finished reading one of the greatest books i've ever read. it's a chinese webnovel called married thrice to salted fish and it has an official translation of 4 volumes total, 3 of which have come out. (4th one comes out in october, i do not recommend the fan translation so i def would read the official one from seven seas danmei. idk if you read digital books, but if you need help aquiring them i can help 😉) it's sooo good, it's set in a fictional ancient china, the main character is a doctor and master of poisons, it has a ton of crazy political maneuvering, the love interest is a transmigrator, and the romance is absolutely fantastic and so sweet (and has spectacular angst). it's also the first transmigration story i've ever read that's not in the perspective of the transmigrator. highly recommend it!! before that was leighton u and i do not recommend it lmaoo, but i also read the raven cycle a while ago and LOVED it, as well as reread one of my favorite books from last year called the disabled tyrant's beloved pet fish. it's also a transmigration story set in a fictional ancient china, but it's a fantasy comedy and it's so so silly and v fun! it also has political maneuvering but the main character is a fish half the time, so the maneuvering involves a lot of hijinks. fair warning though bc it caught me by surprise when i first read it, there is mpreg towards the end, but i hate mpreg and still love this book, so. it's also officially translated by seven seas danmei and all 4 volumes are out.

HI TEA! SORRY I MISSED THIS!

Yessss the audiobook!! I have only heard snippets but it's amazing.

Hey trashy and fun is definitely a concept I agree with. However my book club book was trashy but not fun. It was fun till chapter one, but then it was downhill from there ;-;

DIMENSION 20 BRENNAN LEE MULLIGAN???? I have only seen yt snippets and have not heard the podcast ;-; I thought it came with a subscription or something.

Danmei novels give me flashbacks I'm not even kidding. I had a whole phase where I was a "oh it's only a 1000 more pages, I can finish that in an hour".....I don't know what happened to that person. Honestly my danmei days are over after a very horrific transmigration story that I want to wipe from my memory.

Also if you're into danmei, you should check out Heaven Official's Blessing! There's a fair bit of trauma but I remember I was obsessed with it at one point. They also have a donghua out (but they de-muscled (is that a word?) my beloved, made me sad):
