@t3hwish
I often think about that post that was a fake dating profile for a cat that was all about chickens, like wanting someone with posable thumbs for opening chickens.
This is one my favourite things the internet has ever made.

This remains one of the great art objects of modern times and nobody will convince me otherwise.

#no sorry its bc people fell off cliffs a lot in Jin Yong novels#and now all the ancient historical chinese men in dramas and novels have to fall off cliffs#it's like the tolkien spider#european authors dont have a spider kink its just tolkien#chinese authors dont have a cliff kink its just Jin Yong - explained by @tavina-writes
#the amazing thing to me is everyone who falls off a cliff somehow mages to survive#the yeeting cliff#I wait for it in every wuxia tags from @rojaloca
See, this is where we are forgetting our genre roots because the MAIN Jin Yong cliff guy (Qiao/Xiao Feng from Demi Gods and Semi Devils) who I think actually is the guy most people think of when a Jin Yong man falls off a cliff very much DID die of his cliff falling.
(He even threw himself off in front of BOTH his sworn brothers bc he was also part of a uh, well, a bad decisions sworn brother throuple. Lets just say that.)
[image: three Discord messages from the same user:]
Ok real talk, is falling off a cliff a Chinese kink?
This is the third show I've seen an ancient Chinese gay man fall off a cliff, why is this happening
We need guard rails
[two people have reacted with š.]
Is kneeling all night/in snow/in rain to show devotion or penitence a Jin Yong thing, too, or is it a more general Chinese trope?
I think kneeling as punishment is a more general Chinese society thing, so alas! Jin Yong did not invent that!
he also invented and or popularized: the wuxia iteration of doomed sworn brother throuples (specifically in sets of three), shizunfucking (and also the shizun death arc and also shizun's coffin kink), wuxia hero is a good archer, a surprising number of chess formations that get mentioned in wuxia, corpse bug poison (and tbh a lot of other poisons), men with fans who also fight with said fans, the torture music (and also the og wuxia flute soloist), musical cultivation (see torture music), throwing yourself off a cliff, specifically a game of dice ending with someone having smashed the dice to dust....a very specific type of sexy murder lady, the guqin(orthodox cultivator)/xiao(heretical cultivator)type ship, other highly specific things you start seeing EVERYWHERE....
I'm pretty sure he didn't invent the sexy brothel murder lady since that was Gu Long's contribution to the genre but yknow there's lots he invented and or popularized that I'm forgetting.

apparently you can still do lunar reactions even if the one nod-krai 5 star in your team is down, assuming you got their skill up before they died
(sorry columbina)

Something that I get chills about is the fact that the oldest story told made by the oldest civilization opens with "In those days, in those distant days, in those ancient nights."
This confirms that there is a civilization older than the Sumerians that we have yet to find
Some people get existential dread from this
Me? I think it's fucking awesome it shows just how much of this world we have yet to discover and that is just fascinating
@makaeru peer review cos this made me check when the Sumerians happened and I forget how recent history is for every other continent. 7000 - 8000 years ago just isn't that long when you're in Australia, and the amount of detailed history we have access to here is wonderful and should be recognised more internationally
Source (non Aboriginal)
And a quote I picked out from a longer interview with an Aboriginal local elder about the area where he touched on the history
Source (the rest of the interview is really interesting and all transcribed, have a look if you're curious)
This is part of my Ancient Civilizations class that I teach, which does a whole week about Australia and the Torres Strait Islands because I was sick of never seeing them represented in USAmerican history contexts. With the help of @micewithknives and @acearchaeologist I've learned so many incredible things about Australia's past and it's been incredibly rewarding to share them with students.
My favorite fact about Aboriginal oral history is the fact that we pretty recently discovered that the Aboriginal myth of the 7 Sisters, an origin story for the Pleiades star cluster, accurately reflects a point TEN THOUSAND YEARS AGO when two stars in the constellation got close enough together to no longer be distinguishable by the naked eye.
The story? 6 sisters running from something that took their 7th sister.
as a gilgar gunditj woman, i was not expecting to see my culture on my dash.
thank you for spreading our words and treating our culture with respect.
Boosting signal.
Echoes from the ancient human past, wonderful.
Their oral history also contains stories about hunting prehistoric megafauna too. Native Australians are the oldest existing culture on earth, which is even more amazing considering how hard the british tried to wipe it out.

For your mermay, maybe shen jiu as a leafy seadragon? All his ribbons and fans and layers remind me of those lol :3
You REALLY cooked with this suggestion (and honestly I think I did too)

you got any recs for stuff that smells like baked goods?
(also iirc ur pretty busy rn so absolutely take ur time - though I certainly wouldn't turn down a notification when you get this just so i know it made it through)
baked goods are my favorite smells <3 i have always been on the hunt for photorealistic baked goods...
cheirosa '71 by sol de janeiro - fairly cheap, easily available, and one of my all-time favorites. it has a yummy caramel and vanilla scent. the popcorn & macadamia notes, to me, make it smell like something that's been toasted, like when you have something yummy in the oven and your whole house smells like it
lira by xerjoff - lemon cake! it's a little more sophisticated than a lot of other gourmands IMO.
lait de biscuit by chabaud maison de parfum - this one sounds promising. yummy vanilla wafer cookies.
delizia di marshmallow by kyse perfumes - technically not baked goods, but in a similar vein. this is theeeeee gold standard of marshmallow perfumes. this entire brand seems to do very favorable gourmands
chocolate greedy by montale - this one comes up every single time anyone talks about chocolate fragrances, though i have yet to try it myself. it sounds promising... a lot of chocolate fragrances, to me, smell like cocoa powder instead of actual chocolate, so the idea of one that smells like real deal chocolate dessert is verrry interesting to me

i love writing out numbers and then putting them in parentheses like "one (1)" even when i dont need to i think its funny
my notes for the luna vii archon quest definitely drifted into actual liveblogging so i'm posting them because i can
full of spoilers obviously, and longer than i expected, so they're under the link
(also text only because i don't feel like editing in screenshots from my phone and doing the alt text for them)
...i may have gotten distracted from the latest genshin archon quest and started sorting characters by how much i want their clothes
...
gonna go back to the game now but i'll probably post that later
