five pennies in a trenchcoat

haha this is so strange. i wonder what she was thinking? if you're cutting an onion into rounds, is there even an alternative way of setting them down lol

sounds like you dodged a bullet there :)

?? most people can't even tell you where wyoming is on a map, we're not all just walking around with blueprints of geological landmarks in our heads??

oh that went completely over my head, probably because I was busy being horrified for some other reason lol

mary daisy arnold can you PLEASE stop painting apples this erotically, every time i see an insanely delicious red bitable round orb on this bot account it's YOUR HANDIWORK YET AGAIN, i realize i'm speaking to you from the future but do you think you could just TONE IT DOWN A BIT, THERE ARE CHILDREN!

i don't remember the earlier comments! would you summarize please?

imo we haven't really been given enough info to know how either of them feel about their father yet, but they certainly both seem fully committed to helping him.

just for april, so far!!!!

i mean i was raised evangelical and theism in everything was pretty well normalized, and i still found this iteration of it extremely weird.

i also would never automatically read 'secret medical experiment subject' as an analogue for a Revelations character but that's just me!

wang yibo please put down the extreme sports and come back to hengdian the world needs you 😭 i miss youuuuu 🥺

still trying to get up the nerve to watch ETU2. soon, probably.

i don't know if either of you are caught up but in the latest eps deng kai is at least performatively very much like 'look if my little brother wanted me to kill my son i'd do it no question,' which, weird, weird flex but ok???? they have a WEIRD DYNAMIC is all i'm saying

i think they're both sincere, or at least they certainly don't seem to have anyone else they care about more than each other!

it screams trauma bonding from an emotionally scarred childhood but also teen mass shooters who connect over discussing their favorite serial killers

yesterday it was in the 40s today the temperature is 80 degrees and WHAT IS THIS FORECAST make up your mind, traumatized climate

she'll be so happy thanks to you!! ❤️❤️❤️

nope this is all spot on lol

this has been so enlightening, thank you for this cultural education, i'm glad we saved the shark 🙏

yeah there's a scene in ep 21 too that's supposed to be making the point that something can look erotic and steamy and romantic superficially while actually being terrifying and frightening, but like all the out-of-context douyins from fans are still gonna look erotic and steamy etc.

god i'm glad someone put them all in order so maybe my brain can start recognizing the minor ones from scene to scene, especially Ren Hao who i cannot for the life of me distinguish at all until his cute little deputy guy shows up sob

slippy i'm sorry THIS is the show people are in a life and death struggle over? this CSI Miami lulz is what people are like "my queer ship must be canonized at all costs" about? SLIPPY ARE YOU FOR REAL

yeah i think they were following her as their leader, not him, but then when he started beating her up that should have been the end of the alliance!

ahhh yeah how is she supposed to be cunning enough to be a gang leader with those instincts? Overall this show is great but there are so many moments where the writers are clearly just like "whatever lol"

and the rapey vibes occasionally being filmed like they're a steamy 'isn't this hot' dynamic ughhhhhh why

in hao lan? the annoying little girl they're going to write into a relationship with a 40-year-old or someone else?

god this is such a weird crossover of my two interests don't @ me lol

listen HENRY LEE LUCAS HAD NOTHING ON MY DESIRE TO KEEP THIS DETECTIVE IN THE ROOM WITH ME

on the upside every other story is fine now! Qiang Jin Jiu? All it had was a single scene of horrific animal abuse. Pearl Girl? All they did was just torture some kids every now and then. I was ready to drop Hao Lan because a guy sniffed a girl's hair, wow was my scale of inappropriate stalking off!

that might be good 😩

The descendants of Dr. Zhang, Hua Tuo, wrote similar descriptions in the book titled, “Handbook of Hua Tuo”. This detailed description of CPR was about a thousand years prior to the first report in the West. Several key points of cardiopulmonary resuscitation are presented: 1) the victim should be in a flat position, 2) open the airway (by pulling the hair), 3) press the chest, 4) lift the arms for respiration, 5) abdominal compression to push diaphragm up and aid respiration, 6) continue the above operation for about 30 min. This is very impressive considering the lack of physiological knowledge, modern equipments and delays of experienced rescuers to reach the victim.

omg TIL that CPR has been practiced in China for 2000 years, thanks, Pursuit of Jade pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...

i know i keep saying this but JESUS CHRIST SHOW *gestures vaguely at ep 21 spoilers*

i guess this show was really layering the fairy tale vibes on thick for the first 15 eps or so because it was going to plunge us feet-first directly into the concrete ie constant brutality, and mire us there

younger villain bro's girlfriend is really just like "i have only just met this violent abusive psychopath and i've seen him commit multiple crimes including mass slaughter and child abduction, but i'll fully believe him when he says a random girl killed my brother and commit to this vendetta" huh
