Hey guys! I'm baiwu-jinji from Tumblr, I left the dumpster fire that is twitter and moved here, so I moved all my danmei/Chinese culture metas here too. Will use this as one of my main danmei blogs from now on🌸

this is a conference talk on danmei censorship I gave, it's a bit long and boring but would love any feedback!🥹 (1/3)

meta about danmei censorship #danmei

an example of the language of class struggle in communist propaganda being used for comedic effect (it's humorous because it's out of place in an ancient setting where people speak classical Chinese, whereas the communist lingo is what every Chinese kid grew up with) #tgcf

this is a MDZS meta from the Chinese website douban I translated a few years ago, if I'm entirely honest I love this meta more than the novel itself, and I can only hope to do justice to the beauty of the original prose to some degree #mdzs part (1/3)

So thrilled by the licensing of Wushuang in English because it's one of my fav danmei novels and so underrated! I wrote some thoughts on Wushuang after finishing the novel and here it is #wushuang #peerless

did a poll on Tumblr, more people chose the first option than I expected which is sad to see #danmei #tgcf #2ha

about Hua Cheng's Star of Solitude #TGCF #HeavenOfficialsBlessing #HuaCheng

I finally started reading the revised version of TGCF. Initial impression is that the language is more literary where it used to be colloquial, and the tone is more sober where it used to be vivacious. MXTX's narration in the old TGCF has a bubbly, effervescent feeling, -

interesting how people have completely different takes on Jun Wu calling Xie Lian "Xianle" but it's probably reading too much into this #TGCF
