my first build of the year is this pretty lil DIY music box kit!!! it's Nanci!!! she's so cute!!!

thinking abt sangcheng in grow as we go / royalty au - and jiang cheng realizing a few months after the war that his baby nephew jin ling is more attached to nie huaisang than to him. which makes sense. nhs has been present in yunmeng all these years. jc has been off to war. --

Reminder for everyone operating at situationally-diminished capacity.

for my first adventure of the year, i've decided to solo this thing and oooohhh it is quite fun so far 🤭 did transmission one late last night, realized i have work the next day, and tonight just finished the 2nd, now on to the 3rd I think? VERY COOL PUZZLES. VERY VERY COOL.

is this tamagotchi too big or is my phone too small 🫣

Some of you have forgotten that only three years ago you were perfectly capable of writing a text, writing an email, telling a bedtime story to a child, and it should worry you that powerful companies have convinced us we can’t do things we’ve been doing since the dawn of time.

💖 2026 PLANNER THREAD 🗓️💖 i've had this notebook since last year and it was originally gonna be my 2025 but I decided to go for a square one... this coming year i was like nah i want a slim planner again 🫣 so here's the front and back cover and i rly like how it turned out! 🤭

it is 4 AM. i am on a bus. SUCCESS 👍✨

i will choose to take it as a compliment that this nosy auntie in the elevator was so concerned for me while eyeing my very big cup of iced coffee and was like,, "that is so bad for you.. how old are you dear???" "....thirty?" (i am 32) "THIRTEEN?" "no, thirty. three zero." "YOU LOOK SEVENTEEN" "😀"

SCREAMING I AM AT THE COMPANY CHRISTMAS PARTY AND I JUST WON A WHOLE ASS TV 😭🎉🎉🎉🎄🎁🎅 (fuck genAI still!!) (but also yay look Mother here is a new TV do not ask for grandkids anymore!!)

GODDAMMIT I WASNT STRONG ENOUGH

This is being done without permission nor the ability to opt out for authors, I have a bridge to sell you if you believe it'll be spoiler free/accurate, the book will tell you things if you keep reading, and BUILDING READING COMPREHENSION AND MEMORY IS HOW YOU KEEP YOUR MIND SHARP AND FUNCTIONING.

unplanned but we're going to ToyCon today PRAY FOR MY SOUL AND MY WALLET

"I'm not in denial, I'm in open rebellion" damn that quote goes hard

So annoying that companies that promote GenAI and LLMs called it AI and didn’t differentiate it from the advanced machine learning algorithms and tools that enable so many great things that are also AI but actually solving a problem, and good.

I will forever be AntiAI. Think for yourself, make mistakes, struggle, and learn from it. Find a way to enjoy art, either try a new hobby or support the artists who can help bring ideas to life. Have ideas. Use your imagination. Don't give up what makes us human for the sake of bs "convenience"

Some SangCheng on this fine day #mdzs #jiangCheng #NieHuaisang #sangcheng

when i write nie huaisang 99% of the time this lil creature is what's in my head.

...will my last offering to sangcheng nation for the year 2025 just be 7 flavors of sangcheng cuddling on a couch 😩

I was supposed to post some quick short fics as very very late sangcheng week entries like.... two weeks ago... but the holiday season has gotten into me THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS TO DO 🙈 i am working on em again tho! i have a case of "post everything or nothing at all" for this one again. 😅
