ogni tanto una gioia

- I don't know how to say goodbye. I can't think of any words. - Don't try.

if you won’t give this ship a chance then i don’t know how to explain what you’re missing (i know this is not your implication anon, just. just!)*

i actually think it’s thematically perfect and a great addition to have jiang cheng have a crush, because all jiang cheng does is love people. his primary function in his day-to-day life is experiencing and then failing to express how much he loves his family (which includes wei wuxian) and his sect. it’s so good to have yet another promising relationship founder on the rocks of impossible personal responsibility and unfair circumstances, a tasty little variation on the theme. it’s insane to me when people say jiang cheng is pushy, because he’s being incredibly delicate, partly i think because on some level he knows he is offering her a choice that he himself would never take: to save herself at the expense of her family.

they are SUCH a perfect pair of mirrors, as people who hold power, but can’t actually exercise it to help or protect the only thing they care about (their siblings). they both desperately need someone like each other in their lives– someone who can care for them, but also will stand with them in being in the one who Takes Things Seriously even when other people don’t think it’s important, someone who they can frankly discuss making morally compromising choices with in pursuit of safety and protection for their families and who will understand that that’s the compromise they’ll both always make– but they deserve to get to make it together, for the same family!!! but it’s exactly these needs that make it impossible for them, in the circumstances of canon, to get together. tasty.

also it is simply Hot that she had a single brilliant theory that everyone dismissed (to draw on novel canon just a little bit) and he is the living proof of her skill and brilliance.

I love teaching children. It's an endless source of comedy.

Here are some adorable baby Goku’s for you guys. This were much fun to draw though I almost died from the overflow of cuteness

everyone needs to hear about the situation in india right now. the youth of this nation are going through hell and back to protect the foundations that our country was built on in the first place, while the adults who are supposed to actually be in charge try to silence our voices.

NEET, which is an exam taken by millions of students per year and is the ONLY gateway for medical admissions across the country, had its papers leaked. so many took their lives because this exam meant everything for their future. and NTA, the agency who conducts this exam, was not held accountable.

there was national backlash. cockroach janta party (initially a satirical political party formed by abhijeet dipke in retaliation to the remarks of the chief justice of india calling the youth "cockroaches" and "parasites of society") started protests at jantar mantar, demanding the resignation of the union education minister, dharmendra pradhan. the movement also asked for ten million inr (~100,000 usd) in compensation for the families of students who died by suicide and wanted NTA be held accountable.

sonam wangchuk, a climate activist and education reformer, also went on a hunger strike at jantar mantar to protest against this corruption in india's higher education system. his fast began on june 28, demanding the resignation of the union education minister. his fast lasted for 20 days until delhi police FORCIBLY removed him and admitted him to safdarjung hospital on july 18.

because of this, cockroach janta party announced "chalo sansad," a march to the parliament beginning on june 20th, 9:00 am ist. but the police seems to be responding with water cannons, mobile jammers, and baton charge. all of this, because of a peaceful protest led by people no older than 30.

The government is doing everything it can except for actually having an honest dialogue with the protestors.

It’s important to note that despite all the police brutality, despite how the government has had extra forces airlifted to Delhi to help quash the protest, this has deterred no one.

Not only is the protest in Delhi going strong, the government closed down every metro station in Central Delhi in an effort to stop them and it still hasn’t.

There’s protests in most major cities in India in solidarity. Palakkad, Chennai, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Kochi, and probably more besides. There has been a protest in the UK as well in solidarity.

People who aren’t at the protest are donating so much food that the organisers have had to ask them to stop doing so because there’s more than enough. In lieu of that people are donating money for medicine, lawyers, cleanup, and umbrellas.

Most crucially, hopes aren’t broken. Spirits aren’t broken. People with bruises and broken bones are still showing up. People are showing up cosplaying as freedom fighters and super heroes and a dinosaur. People are doxxing goons who show up trying to incite violence. People are making reels. People in Mumbai literally opened a moving police detainment van to allow arrested students to escape.
