Sighs

actually i have even less tolerance for diaspora who act like this isn't an issue. you literally don't have to out yourselves as so disconnected from history. seasia is still recovering from the effects of japanese imperialism, korea is still petitioning for reparations (or even just a fucking apology!) for comfort women, and until today japan continues to propagandise or straight-up lie about what it did during wartime. it is downright irresponsible to reduce the issue to fanwars or chinese nationalism and the language people have used is incredibly fucking disrespectful

In case no one told you growing up

Bras last longer if you let them air dry. Don’t put them in the dryer.

If you have a problem with frizzy hair, don’t dry your hair with a towel. It makes the frizzies worse. (I recently read an article that said to use a t-shirt? I brush mine out and let it air dry.)

Whites wash best in hot water. Everything else can be in cold - save on your electricity bill.

You can kill 99.9% of germs in a sponge by putting it in the dishwasher for a cycle or by microwaving it for 2 min (be sure to make the sponge damp before microwaving and to put a cup half full of water in with it and please DO NOT squeeze the sponge until it has cooled off)

Airing out your room/house and letting sunlight in every so often can decrease the number of household pests like silverfish and ants.

Black underwear is best during your period as stains are less likely to be visible.

To save money, put aside 10% of each paycheck into a savings account. It’ll add up.

Unless your hair has something on/in it (like grease or mud or something), using conditioner first can actually be the better choice. The conditioner holds in the good oils that help you hair look sleek and beautiful, which shampoo would otherwise wash away.

Speaking of shampoo - if you have long hair, washing just the bits that touch your scalp is generally enough. The rest of your hair gets cleaned with just the run off from your scalp.

If you put a tampon in and it’s uncomfortable/you can feel it, you didn’t do it quite right. A properly placed tampon is virtually unnoticeable by the wearer.

Apply deodorant/antiperspirant a couple hours in advance of when you need it. This gives the product the chance to block your sweat glands. Using deodorant just before going somewhere where you’ll sweat (this means walking outside for people in high humidity places) results in your sweat washing the deodorant off and starkly limiting its usefulness.

After running the dryer, use the dryer sheet from that load to brush out the lint catch - it gets everything off in a fraction of the time it’ll take you to get it clean with your bare hands. Paper towels also work well.

Wash your face everyday, or as often as possible. Forget which brand of cleanser is best. Just washing your face everyday will guarantee you clearer skin. And do you best not to pop pimples, as tempting as the urge may be.

Fold laundry asap after taking it from the dryer to avoid wrinkles. This may seem obvious for dress shirts and silly for things like t-shirts, but you’ll notice the difference even then once your shirts stop looking like unfolded paper balls.

funny how white danmei fans on here try to act like they know chinese culture SOOOO well and WAAAY better than actual chinese and chinese diapora bloggers and yet they’re incapable of comprehending the horrors of japanese imperialism in china and in other regions of asia. like. all of us knew you were full of shit but wow. what a way to go out.

WeiLan: 10,000 years of pining

WangXian: A decade worth pining

WenZhou: FUCK pining. I just met you but we are now soulmates. No take backs.

i just need to get through this week

this is from last year

do you ever think about how brave lan zhan was to tell wei ying the name of their song. even though wei ying was too feverish to remember it, lan zhan had the courage to confess his love to wei ying. even if it wasn’t a direct ‘i love you’ it’s still a portmantau of their names, wangxian, a song about them – a song for them, written out of love and devotion.
