#MingDynasty #CDrama has so many interesting takes on what love is. ❤️ for country, family, obsession, possessions, and intimacy. It's a long one but worth the watch.
While they probably weren't 450 feat long, as some records claim, the #MingDynasty treasure ships that salled between AD 1405 and 1433 would have dwarfed Christopher #Columbusday' ships

Doucai (斗彩, "contrasted" or "fitted" colors) is an exquisite Chinese porcelain technique, peaking during the Ming dynasty’s Chenghua era (1465–1487). It involves outlining designs in underglaze blue, firing at high temperatures, then filling them with bright overglaze enamels and re-firing. The resulting style looks like the underglaze and overglaze colors are competing or perfectly fitted together. British Museum

The fact that this year I watched more older #cdramas than 2025 releases makes it worth posting my top 3 favorites from those non-2025releases, which are:-
1. #MingDynasty (rewatch; historical)
2. #TheRiseofPhoenixes (court intrigue)
3. #TheStoryofMinglan (family saga)
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!
Up to 100,000 #eunuchs served the last emperor of the #MingDynasty (1368–1644). They still served the last emperor of China in 1911 & carried on the government when communists overthrew him. The last one to sing at the #Vatican was in 1922. HowSexGotScrewedUp.com
Eunuchs in #China built the #GreatWall & were also #CivilServants. In 105 CE, the #eunuch Tsai Lun invented #paper. About 700 years later, another eunuch, Feng Tao, invented #blockprinting. And in the #MingDynasty, eunuchs popularized the use of #ToiletPaper.
