Time again for my favorite christmas post ever, one that still makes me laugh every time i read it

The rockets-blowing-up-debris-everywhere company? Is everyone high? Is there a hallucinogenic mushroom boom?

After 5 days of a work trip I'm more tired than after 2 weeks trekking in the mountains.

How's this for an advent calendar? Pluto TV now has all 25 official James Bond films streaming for free. So you can watch one a day and it'll take you all the way through Christmas. Start at the beginning with Sean Connery's first mission as 007 in DR. NO: pluto.tv/us/on-demand...

This is Lan Zhan. Lan Zhan enjoys his personal space. This is Wei Ying. Wei Ying also enjoys Lan Zhan’s personal space.

The fire in Hong Kong looks absolutely devastating.

Watched Wicked/Wicked For Good today (I haven’t seen the first movie before because I decided I didn’t like Wicked enough to go to the cinema twice). It’s good. I enjoyed how they handled Dorothy.

A silly little modern AU. When LWJ was just Babyji, he had very sensitive skin. They had to use special soap and detergent for him, but he cried that he didn't smell nice like everyone else. Eventually, a formula was worked out that smelled of sandalwood and didn't cause rashes.

Re: new Wuthering Heights trailer Why don’t they make Lady Chatterley’s Lover? They seem to want to!

But what if Madam Lan lived longer? I'm seeing so much potential for angst. Lan Xichen distancing himself from his mother under his uncle's/teachers' influence. Lan Wangji, quietly, internally, distancing himself from his sect rules/way of life (and it's a torturous process; he loves rules).

One thing that stood out to me with Dems caving was Schumer going „Look, look, I voted against” and no one falling for it. The energy is very much rot in hell you evil fuck.

there's a moment in PARADISE LOST where Satan arrives in Eden and realizes Hell isn't a place; it's a thing he carries within him and it'll follow him wherever he goes. and i think about that when i see these awful rich men whose monstrous wealth has enriched them not at all

I feel like we have the opportunity to turn David Lynch's quote into this moment's "Keep Calm and Carry On" and it's a far better rallying cry too.

Not now, carnivorous death ball

Teen lwj who tells wwx to just stop talking for one (1) day vs teen wwx who takes that as a personal challenge to communicate solely via cat noises

Teacher LWJ likes to think that his bunnies, Sweetpea and Gillyflower, are tiktok famous, even though their profile is followed only by LXC, LQR, and LWJ's students (ages 7-15). Until one day famous rockstar WWX reacts to one of his tiktoks and LWJ's life gets really crazy really fast.

I feel like the universe just played Fuck-Mary-Kill with Jonathan Bailey, Zohar Mamdani, and Dick Cheney

i can’t believe a good thing happened we should do this more often

When you come back from the mountains with dry skin and the universe sends you a cream for dry skin specifically... (I opened the package with jeans that I've been trying to get for months from a local small-ish brand & found a full-sized dry skin cream freebie.)

Happy halloween to all necromancers and husbands of necromancers #wangxian #mdzs

Museum curator LWJ, single father WWX whose perfect little son put his perfect little hand iexplicably covered in chilli oil on a priceless painting.

"Women are not usually into science fiction"is legitimately one of the stupidest, most divorced from reality sentences I have ever read in my life

#wangxian modern au where wwx teases lwj about not having had his first kiss so much that lwj gets fed up and just grabs wwx by the shirt and kisses him. Hard.

“I am not interested, nor will I ever be interested. I'm 61, and I hope to be able to remain uninterested in using it at all until I croak. ... The other day, somebody wrote me an email, said, ‘What is your stance on AI?’ And my answer was very short. I said, ‘I'd rather die.’” 🫡

I’m not here, because I’m there.

Sympathetic crier Lan Wangji. (But he's face still doesn't move.)

Sometimes I think we don't get enough mileage out of the Lan Zhan's Internalized Homophobia tag. (this is your tw) I need him to be a low key serial monogamist, never more than three dates, has been tacitly engaged to Wen Qing for years, and everyone knows he disapproves of Wei Ying's everything.

Nobel Peace Prize just went to Maria Corina Machado, a Venezuelan woman. Trump is going to have a stroke🤞🤞🤞

Any good lists for blocking AI „art” accounts? Bsky is being annoying lately.

Lan Qiren struggles to teach his nephews how to asses what is an appropriate punishment for a given infraction. Lan Xichen, age 10: Surely, a slap on the wrist would suffice. (LQR: No.) Lan Wangji, age 7: Death by sword. But we are merciful, so it would be quick. (LQR: No!)

Got my covid jab and flu jab today & now both of my arms hurt 😭

In the club. Jin Zixuan feels the pressure from his family to propose to Jiang Yanli. But they've only been to a few outings to get their families off their backs! Wen Qing is not opposed to taking a handsome guy home. She doesn't know who JZX is because her family lived abroad for years.

Lan Wangji stops wearing his glasses to the lectures because that's the only way he can concentrate on what the professor is saying and not get distracted by how pretty Wei Ying is. The first time Wei Ying sees him wearing glasses, he calls LWJ "Clark Kent." LWJ does not get that reference.

#prompt LWJ who runs and owns a used bookstore. It's a small business but he enjoys it — more than he would working for his family's corporate business, ew. He gets by, and with his side work as a private music tutor, he makes enough for himself.

House of Guinness is very enjoyable tv. I knew I would like it when at the beginning of the first ep a Fenian proclaims to spare the horses, because "all horses are Catholics."

Morning walk

Sooo... does anyone have a rec for a less known Wangxian longfic for the AO3 down time?

Apple can go fuck itself.

Lan Wangji has been dragged by his brother to a so-called breakfast market. He does not enjoy it! It's too crowded despite the early hour, there's not enough seating available, and it's definitely overpriced.

It is fucked up what they did to the headphone jack

Bloody ghouls.

if you must be online may i point out that project gutenberg is still around and still has basically every book written before 1910 for free

Wei Wuxian is making elaborate obstacle courses in the corridor for the bunnies. It's for enrichment! Inquiring minds (Lan Wangji) would like to know why they are included in those challenges.

"…and Magda Goebbels made a great strudel.”

Just amused myself by thinking about immortal #wangxian in the modern era watching horror movies and trying to deduce what cultivation method would best handle the supernatural antagonist.

Wow, imagine talking to an expert and getting answers.

I'm sad for the state of American democracy, and for every kid on that Utah campus who heard shots and feared for their lives. I'm not sad for Charlie Kirk, who believed yearly shooting deaths were worth it to preserve gun ownership, and who therefore quite literally died as he lived.

I ordered some tea (I had a birthday discount) & the package came with 2 additional items as freebies 🥰 Good job keeping me as a customer, expensive tea shop!

The funny thing is that with this action they just made the piece have at least another 24h in the news.
