Did you know these cards were Nintendo's first product in 1889? I learned this today.

Day 24: fav costumes is easy because, you know me, I'm obsessed with Tang Dynasty aesthetics.
And I don't care much for historical accuracy in fiction, but I do appreciate when the costumes are accurate to the time period because it just adds a layer of appreciation

I'm skipping day 22 because I rarely hear about dramas until they're airing
Day 23: a drama that made you think
I think Feud is a nice #makeuthink drama because it's constantly perspective-shifting and revealing new layers and makes you question what and who you should doubt/trust.

I've been invited to do another little lecture at a local association (about the UK). This time I think I'll do the history of immigration to the UK but go back way further than anyone expects, the moral of the story being that no Brit is a pure Brit and immigration is in everyone's history. 💁🏻♀️

Day 21: a drama that surprised me
I had no idea what to expect of Shadow Love but honestly (and I say this with love) wtf was that 😂
In episode ONE Cheng Lei is an angsty prince then a blue naked superman then a CHILD (??? still don't know why) then a househusband.
What a wild ride.

Days 16 and 17: best actor and actress
Repetitive but I feel like Song Zuer should be my best actress bc she burst back onto the scene so explosively.
And /my/ best actor this year has to be Cheng Lei coz he just killed it in everything and... idk, took so many baths I guess

Imma skip days 13 and 14 because I choose dramas carefully and never find them /boring/, and I don't pay attention to directors
But day 15: fav poster

When I was maybe 15, 16, I was an obnoxious new-atheist capitalist. Before uni I grew out of that and developed a whole bunch of empathy.
Anyway it's alarming to see men all over the place, often in positions of power, who are still stuck in the gross phase I grew out of as a teenager. 🫠

Happy to inform that he seems to have flown away by himself and we're now theorising that maybe he was drunk on berries (there was berry juice at the scene) 😌
We found a little injured mejiro-kun 😭 Put him in a bush with some honey water.

I'd like to thank The Best Thing because I learned a lot about traditional Chinese medicine and how it can be integrated with modern medicine and that was genuinely very fascinating. Fair play to the government TCM propaganda initiative. 😂
