I keep hearing America and even the world described as a modern Sodom and Gomorrah, where the rich get richer and trample on the poor. Where we've chosen not to care for the foreigner, the orphan, and the widow among us. "God's wrath will come!" I hear. But it hasn't yet, which leads me to wonder:
Is it that there's still enough righteous among us that God will not destroy us?
Or
Is it that we're so used to injustice that we no longer cry out to God at all?

the ideal werewolf novel
just looked through about 700 werewolf books, good grief.
most seem to fall into two categories:
werewolf serial killer mysteries
domineering alpha romances
neither is really what I’m interested in.
here is what I’d want from the werewolf novel of my wildest dreams:
good relationships, especially friendships between packmates (lone wolves are boring)
werewolves who like being werewolves. (angsty wolves are boring)
the practical details of werewolfery: who’s got the bail money for animal control, whether anyone’s microchipped, what you pack in a bag for a night out werewolfing
the uses of werewolfery: hiring yourselves out as trackers or canine rescue, getting certified as service dogs, spending your free time at the library letting little kids read to a friendly doggie
female werewolves, and no weird gross hypermasculine alpha stuff going on in werewolf culture
queer werewolves, and no weird gross heteronormative ‘laws of nature’ stuff going on in werewolf culture
dog jokes.

The Snake 
This miraculous predecessor was a bit more difficult to design than usual so there may be fashion elements that don’t clearly scream “feudal Japan” than how I initially planned 😩 Nevertheless, here is Feudal Japan Viperion! 🐍🎶
Slightly similar to canon viperion, I was thinking that striking the shamisen strings would initiate the “time-travel”countdown and the snake design would indicate how much time he would have left to travel back to the initial time-travel point. Otherwise, maybe he could use the instrument as an overdecorated bat to knock folks out lol.

Our breaks were lunch and the 7 minutes we got between classes to go to our lockers, go to the bathroom, and get our butts to the next class before final bell. They were changing things right as I graduated, but we had 6 classes a day and one 30 minute lunch. School began at 7:15am and ended at 2:15. Lunch was somewhere around 10:30-11:30. American high school is set up like Guantanamo, y’all. 
This morning, our boys realized 7th grade doesn’t have recess and now they’re pissed.

So the same person who posted your comic on mangatoon and claimed it was theirs, Sasi Kala, has just uploaded ANOTHER comic by someone else, except this time they changed the name, probably hoping that would make it harder for others to find the real work. The original comic is Everywhere and Nowhere on WEBTOON and they changed the name to Displaced from time.
I’m hoping that if a large enough amount of people report the uploader, your comics that they’ve stolen, as well as the new comic they just uploaded, the app will finally take them down.
This clown really refuses to take off the nose.

Hi! I see in your posts that there are names for the different types of hanfu...but i cannot tell the difference...would you be able to make a post on what the different types of hanfu are? If its too complicated thats ok!
Hi, thanks for the question! I covered the basic types of men’s hanfu here and here, so in this post I’ll describe the basic types of women’s hanfu. Resources on identifying different types of hanfu can be found in my reference tag.
- Ruqun/襦裙 - the most basic type of hanfu consisting of a top and a wrap-around skirt. The top is called “ru/襦” and the skirt is called “qun/ 裙”, hence “ruqun”. Sleeves can be narrow or wide. Generally speaking, people divide ruqun into two types based on the height of the skirt: “Qiyao Ruqun/ 齐腰襦裙” (waist-high ruqun) and “Qixiong Ruqun/ 齐胸襦裙” (chest-high ruqun).
“Qiyao Ruqun” is the kind of ruqun in which the waistband is on the waist. Both men and women can wear it. For women, the top’s collar can be parallel (left), crossed (middle), or u-shaped (right). Men’s ruqun are cross-collared only.
Tumblr media
“Qixiong Ruqun”, on the other hand, has its waistband above the chest. The top’s collar can be parallel (left) or crossed (right). It’s only worn by women.
Tumblr media
As seen in the photos above, ruqun is often accessorized with a long scarf called Pibo/披帛. Originally used to protect against wind and cold air, pibo gradually became an important feature of hanfu.
- Aoqun/袄裙 - a type of ruqun that became fashionable during the Ming Dynasty. It consists of a double-layered top called “ao/袄“ and a waist-high skirt (”qun”), hence “aoqun”. Unlike the “standard” ruqun that has the top tucked inside the skirt, the aoqun’s top is worn untucked, above the skirt. There are two types of “ao” - “short ao” and “long ao”. The “short ao” (left, right) reaches the waist, while the “long ao” (middle) covers the knees. Ao collars can be crossed (left, middle) or upright (right). Only worn by women.
Tumblr media
- Unlike ruqun and aoqun which are made of separate top and bottom pieces, the Shenyi/深衣 style of hanfu consists of one-piece robes that wrap around the body once or several times. Quju/曲裾 (curved-hem robe) and Zhiju/直裾(straight-hem robe) are two types of shenyi. The quju (left, middle) is a robe in which the bottom hem of the left lapel spirals its way up to the waist of the wearer. Modern quju can come in a shortened version (middle) that reveals the skirt worn underneath. In contrast to the quju, the bottom hem of the zhiju (right) circles around levelly, creating a straight line. Quju and Zhiju are worn by both men and women.
Tumblr media
- Beizi/褙子 - a parallel-collar “jacket” with side slits beginning at the armpit or at the waist. It can be secured at the front either with ties or a metal button. Extremely versatile, it can be long or short, have narrow or wide sleeves, and is worn by both men and women. During the Song Dynasty, it was popular to wear narrow-sleeved beizi over a chest undergarment and skirt/pants (middle). Another name for Ming Dynasty-style beizi is Pifeng/披风 (right). Pifeng collars can also be upright (not shown).
Tumblr media
- Banbi/半臂 - a half-sleeve jacket worn by both men and women. It comes in various lengths and is usually worn over ruqun. Its collar can be parallel (left), crossed (middle), or u-shaped (right). When paired with ruqun, it can be worn tucked inside the skirt as well as over the skirt (untucked).
Tumblr media
- Bijia/比甲 - a sleeveless jacket, usually worn over aoqun, that comes in various lengths and styles.
Tumblr media
- Daxiushan/大袖衫 - large-sleeve robe commonly paired with ruqun. As its name indicates, its main feature is its broad sleeves. The length is at least 78 inches, and the width exceeds 40 inches. The material is generally thin and light, because it was originally created for wear in the summer.
Tumblr media
Of course this doesn’t cover everything, but it describes the basic hanfu styles that appear most often on this blog. Hope this helps!

Theoretically, since living things want to stay that way and being alive is the natural state of all things which can achieve it, all things that have once lived should have some innate, physical desire to do so again. Therefore, necromancy should be the easiest and most feasible form of magic.
What a good and not at all worrisome argument of course you can borrow my shovel.
