I got a really sweet comment on Bets Bluffs and Boxcars (my hualian fic) the other day where this lovely person was writing a uni report related to Macau and it made them think of the story! As a writer, it’s so cool to hear about things that randomly remind someone about an aspect of your fic
everything has a silver lining I guess. Dad was in the hospital this past weekend but he is home and resting now. All the hospital staff were really nice when we were there. I had a pretty brutal call shift yesterday but my med student wrote me a really kind card and nursing were so supportive too.
🫂🫂🫂 don’t let us sit too long with our thoughts haha
Thank you fren 💗💗🫂🫂 it’s getting a bit better. I am glad I can have some more rest this weekend
🫂🫂💗
life has been so annoying and tiring lately.
when someone in the family is sick, it's so stressful. i really really feel for all my sick patients and their caregivers.
sickness is hard. im so tired. i have another call shift tomorrow.
oh gosh im glad im not the only one that breathing exercises dont do the trick for 🫂 I hope your new therapist does take your feedback into consideration ❤️
Aww Megs 🫂🫂 I definitely don’t feel so kindhearted in the moment 😆
For the older generation to be at peace with our decisions would require them to be at peace with their own.
That’s why the truly content ones never bother us. And the next time some old bat tries to harangue me again, I’ll feel sorry for her own denial, and then keep on doing what’s right for me.
Not unless it’s on our own terms. And we are okay with that. Even happy, relieved, and free.
But the older generation can’t accept that yet. It breaks their minds—their precariously fragile beliefs. /How can you not yearn for this tiresome, thankless sacrifice that I have spent all my youth on?/
So they live their lives believing they are actualized, and brainwashing other young people to think that what they have is the dream.
Except many young people don’t want that. We don’t want to commit to someone we aren’t sure about, or raise kids we aren’t ready to devote all our time and love to.
They should be /happy/ and /fulfilled/ to have a husband, birth a child, raise a family. They keep believing this because what else can their ego accept? That they made the wrong decision? Made a sacrifice that wasn’t worth it?
The older I get, the more I believe this is the truth. They themselves were pressured into marrying, sometimes at the cost of their own wishes and aspirations. They were sold this idea that marriage is worth it. Marriage is the most sought after goal, the ultimate source of one’s family’s pride.
I watched a video once where a very insightful lady shared that the reason why she thinks older women in Asian households get so up in arms over whether you (a younger feminine appearing person) has a bf/husband yet is that they are desperate to justify their own decisions in life.

I commissioned a skeb-style “sketch” from @chapter56.bsky.social for the blog. I threw out a bunch of potential prompts with no idea what they would choose, and got surprised last night by this gorgeous illustration. I love artists depicting other artists at work. #tgcf #huacheng #xielian

New babies arrived 💕
Win of the day: loading all 4 winter tires into the back of the car all by myself 💪
me a year ago (or at any other point in my life for that matter) would not have thought it possible. Who knew working out would have functional use? /j
but therapists really need to respect their clients if they say this breathing technique is uncomfortable or distressing.
(Not about my therapist, but someone I was quite annoyed with recently.)
these types of breathing exercises can be really aggravating and anxiety provoking. It literally does the opposite of calming me down. I get so fixated on the counting and following the rhythm and my chest starts to get tight.
I think it’s fine if someone likes it or finds it helpful
Idk if this is an unpopular opinion but I really really dislike grounding breathing exercises (counting the seconds of inhale/exhale, box breathing, etc). Maybe it works for some people but it drives me nuts if a therapist tries to tout it as the be all panacea of mindfulness.
For some people,
so I haven’t measured my height since high school, but today fiancee helped measure my height so I could have it for medical stuff…and somehow I’m 4cm taller than I thought I was??? 🤯
(either I grew more in uni or I need a new tape measure)
HE LOOKED GOOD IN THAT DRESS
DAMN RIGHT
haha I love you guys
I can’t draw this mental image, so I must describe it in excruciating detail so that I can transplant my brainrot onto your brain too.
Hua Cheng’s strong yet gracefully dextrous fingers, with black nails that gleam wickedly, tracing with deftness, as though drawing demonic talismans, encircling and flicking at Xie Lian’s dusky areolas, perked and speckled with gooseflesh, quivering where they sit on ripe fleshy pecs.
Tops that blush cutely 😌👌
