Poster for Legend of Zang Hai

Lee watches Legend of Zang Hai master thread.

Plot, language, culture, history, Chinese TV and novel tropes, and general commentary.

Ohhh that's so clever and fun

Beneath all the propaganda, all the nice words about human rights and equality and international law, this is it. This is the material manifestation of Western values.

Ohh ty for the heads-up!

Bodies of missing aid workers found in Gaza ‘mass grave’ following Israeli attacks | CNN The bodies of more than a dozen aid workers have been recovered in southern Gaza from what a United Nations agency described as a “mass grave,” a week after they went missing following attacks by Isra...

Oh my fucking god.

It looks like Israel murdered eight Palestine Red Crescent Society workers, a UN employee, and five civil defense staff.

They crushed up and buried entire ambulances and civil defense vehicles in the fucking mass grave.

a small reddish brown dog sits on a wooden table and looks at the camera with big brown eyes. her fur has little white accents around her eyes and nose, a patch on her chin and chest, fully white toes, and a tiny white spot on the top of her noggin. she has a lovely magenta flower with tall yellow center perched on her head next to her right ear.

This is Bambi. She loves flowers. Because just like her, they bring immense joy into the world while remaining impressively close to the ground. 12/10

Can't believe they put him in F class, aww pcy :(((

🥰

No cheating. Post the last photo of your pet.

Same, she's the best 🥺

I just got to the eldest sister having an alleged past engagement 👀 I like her a lot, hope her relationship with the scholar dude will be cute!

😍😍

were we to release sqq on the rest of the mxtx novel casts i think the only wifebeam survivor would be hua cheng

A blast from the distant past:

In which XZ accuses Wang Zhuocheng of lying about his height (as in he's shorter than he admits), and WZC accuses XZ of lying about his height (as in he's taller than he will admit to).

(Translations mine.)

Smiley Yeebs for #WYBWednesday

a tiny white dog stands on a tile floor and looks up at you. they’re wearing a big plush yellow star around their teensy noggin, like the world’s most congratulatory lion mane. we really needed to see her today.

We've been saving this little pup for when we thought you all might really need a gold star. And, given the current circumstances, here she is. 13/10

Screenshot of Yang Zi standing elegantly, wearing an orange and pale green Tang dynasty hanfu with her hair in a fancy updo

Two screenshots of Li Xian and Yang Zi sitting in a garden wearing historical outfits. In the first shot Li Xian is looking at Yang Zi's profile and smiling faintly, while in the second she is spooning food from a bowl he's holding.

Do you like gorgeous cdramas that put some effort into historical accuracy? Are you an enjoyer of very cute banter-y slow-burn romance? Does a tenacious, crafty, business-minded girl's girl sound like your kind of protagonist?

May I recommend ✨Flourished Peony/国色芳华✨, available on Youtube & MangoTV
