He looks and vibes and speaks like my secondary school lit and english teacher 🤣

YAS \o/ Putting it in a venn diagram was such a good idea to show it clearly 😆 I guess the only commonality is that they can be all costume dramas... though xianxia and xuanhuan/qihuan may also be set in modern day! - I don't /think/ we have modern day xianxia live actions yet, though!
Look at this new work of art I made yesterday. 😂

One thing that often happens is people get very confused about what is wuxia, xianxia, and xuanhuan due to lack of understanding about the terms. So I made this venn diagram to help. 😂

Post a Female Character you love.

Consort Jing!

So wise. So patient.
So subtle when she strikes that no one even realises when she does.

Someone said Lin Shu haunts the narrative - which well, yes!!! Yes!!!! But also, the true missing star that everyone once revolved around, that you can see the traces of everywhere... that's Prince Qi, Xiao Jingyu. 😭

is the preface of salt enough to entice me to brave a book of 'Hsün-tzu'? Maybe 🤣

The example of 仙劍 being translated as "Sword and Fairy" is an especially apt example of how bad the term "fairy" is for 仙, IMHO.

Seeing this is ESPECIALLY amusing to me having had a Moment in a musuem filled with pictures of people from the first third of the 1900s yesterday. See, I came face to face with a gal who was wearing the identical twin of my outfit, when i was a walking uniqlo ad right down to my socks! 🤣
hard agree--the way I see it, I'm in my early 40s. I should be ALLOWED to have my fashion age me, dammit.
Some Millennials in my timeline are insecure because Gen Zs are telling them their ankle socks age them.

I can't stress enough that you don't need to care about what a bunch of 20-somethings think about your clothes, mainly bc you don't have to care about what ANYONE thinks about your clothes.

Ooh, not really sure what to recommend, to be honest —James J. Y. Liu’s “The Art of Chinese Poetry” is a compact starting point, but it’s a bit precious and uses Wade-Giles rather than the now more common Pinyin romanization. “How to Read Chinese Poetry,” edited by Zong-qi Cai, is excellent, but…

Aaaand the sachet is finally done, nearly a month after Duanwu but honestly who cares about that right now, let's be honest ::COUGHS::

Doing the leaf over paid off in spades. As @yjthecat.bsky.social has said, "it's a lotus that's Been Through Things."

It's the lotus of the 2020s, is what I say.
