Fanart: Bedtime snuggles. I laughed at this baby Ghost King comic. 2Luo.
Companies spend a lot of money on marketing in China. I honestly don't know how one survives being faced with a larger-than-life-size ReFa ad.

Untamed/adjacent:
Modern CQL illustrations continue, now with Zidian.

One person left kudos on six of my stories yesterday, including Ghost Story. o_O That's a lot of reading.

In a conversation on yesterday's watch party, someone (Sherly--I don't know their DW name?) mentioned having Zhao Yunlan-levels of bad luck in love and I thought we were going to have a whole Bad Romance thread \o/ but then nobody else weighed in on their tragic love stories. /o\ Then this tweet about being a "foster girlfriend" crossed my tl and Lord Do I Know That Feel. Something I didn't mention in yesterday's hilarious outpouring of woe was that for about, uh, 20 years all but one dude that I had sex with married the next woman he dated (and afaik that one guy is still unmarried). I seriously could have rented myself out as a service for wedding-bound women. So if you feel like starting a Bad Romance comment thread here, I'm all ears. And now I'm gonna go rewatch that music video for the bajillionth time because that's still a great song.

Sherly is [personal profile] sherlockianonfire_91 here on DW. She posts great ZhuBai pics!

Sorry that thread got derailed. ^_^; I didn't have anything to contribute, my own dating history being Very Boring, and then it was time for the video to start. I think fashes would probably have had some good stories if we hadn't gotten distracted. XD;

My absolute favorite version of that song is this brilliant pastiche.

[personal profile] fashes is on DW! She is a delightful and interesting person who is worth talking to. 10/10 would recommend friending! :D

Yes, the all-white cast is the one flaw in that otherwise amazing gem. :( I don't know if it was deliberate or an oversight, but it's a shame, because otherwise the video is SO GOOD. I've been known to sing that version at karaoke, in fact...
