GUESS WHO PULLED ON CLORINDES BANNER TODAY

Okay, so spoilers for the apothecary diaries

Also, there are some heavy topics here, so be warned

Okay light context:

Old emperor :creep

Lady Anshi: dowager empress

Lady Ah Dou: concubine of current emperor

So I've been thinking about the implications of Lady Ah Dou and Anshi's babies being switched at birth.

Anshi understandably so could not love the baby she had later in life. The baby came as a result of her revenge on the old emperor. Honestly, I don't blame her for it. She took revenge on the man who sexually abused her since she was 9 or 10 years old, and while it is wrong, I completely understand where she came from. It was the culmination of years of abuse, then being ignored and forgotten entirely, while she had to live with the abuse that was done to her and live with the knowledge that countless other girls were actively suffering as a result of the emperor. And yes I do understand he suffered abuse at the hands of his mother, so it's likely a result of that. The show handles the cyclical nature of abuse very well, especially in the time period. Except we dont see Anshi going on to rape other men too. She rapes the man who raped her and as a result, becomes pregnant. The situation obviously traumatised the old emperor, too. He now had to live with seeing his rapist around and carry that trauma, the same way Anshi and the countless other little girls had to do for decades.

but back to my main point.

Ah Dou was concerned her son would not survive and she wanted him to. So they switched their babies it was a mutually beneficial thing to them. However the implications of it.

We know, mao mao is incredibly intelligent and has figured it out more or less. Could it be possible that another high-ranking government official has figured out that Jinshi is infact the heir to the throne. Considering that twice now he has had an attempt on his life. And a certain high ranking official who pushed for his daughter to become a concubine who also happens to look similar to Shisui, who happens to be the younger sister of Suirei, who orchestrated the first attempt on Jinshis life. Is it also not such a coincidence that there are foreign envoys present in the village that Suirei has taken MaoMao to. Western foreign envoys which coincidentally, the gun used in the second attempt on Jinshis life was western made. And another coincidence it happened at the father of Concubine Loulans retreat. Who looks suspiciously similar to Shisui, who's related to Suirei.

Lots of coincidences

And no, I haven't read the light novels or manga or seen spoilers, so this is purely speculative.

It is such a weird experiance growing up "ugly" or "weird" esp if you were still considered that at like 14/15. Because now I'm 18 and suddenly I'm hot all of a sudden? Like yall find me attractive? Idk if maybe I'm maturing into my facial features and body but idk shits weird.

In the heart of the siege, even bread has become a dream. 🍞💔

In Gaza,hunger is no longer just a feeling; it has become a constant companion, a heavy shadow that follows us at every moment.🕊️

My family of 13 has been worn down by the merciless hunger, and searching for our daily sustenance has become a daily battle. ⚔️🥀

Yesterday, desperation and need drove me to go out in search of a loaf of bread.

What I found was not a "queue," but a scene that resembled a battlefield:

Endless crowds 🧑‍🤝‍🧑👩‍👩‍👧‍👦.

Screams mixed with fear 📢😟.

Eyes burdened with pain 🥺💔.

Every step was a struggle against a tide of hunger and humiliation 💨🌪️.

And in the end?

I returned empty-handed, carrying only shame and sorrow. 😔🪫

My children waited for me with small hopes, their eyes asking

Did you bring us bread ?

But I had no answer. 🥖💭

The war is not just in the bombs that destroy homes 🏚️💣,

but in this daily humiliation as we try to secure our basic right: food. 🍽️

This is not a "flour crisis."

It is the voice of an entire community crying from beneath the rubble:

"We are human, don't we have the right to life?" 🌍🕊️

Will there be a day when my children live without fear? 😔🌟

Will the dawn come when we are freed from this hunger? 🌅🍞

Our hope in God still stands 🙏✨, and our call to humanity is:

Wake up, before we become just a memory in the pages of history. 🖤📜

DEKE IS SO FUNNY.

He's what the show needed

I heard a tiktok using a sound from lovejoy (Wilbur soots band omfg I'm cringing writing this) and I'm so upset bc why do bands that make good music turn up being pieces of shit. Like they had genuine good songs.

Anyways, does anyone have recommendations for bands with a similar sound?

Hi Tareq, I'm so sorry about what has been happening in Palestine, I'm truly shocked at what is occurring. I'm happy to spread your story and will try to help as much as possible.

I have sm thoughts on genshin impact lore and current story relating to natlan and thoughts on natlan as a whole.

Like how half baked natlan feels. also that mavuika feels like she wasn't the og archon the devs had in mind. Like the exploration is there but archon quest? nah.

ARCANE ACT 3 SPOILER WARNING

I haven't seen any talk about Mel so let's give my girl justice because I have loved her since I first saw her character 3 years ago.

I was always curious to see what they would do with Mel's character and I love that they did her justice. She spent most of season 1 struggling with her identity as a Medarda and feeling like an imposter

Ambessa always wanted Mel to be a strong Medarda (aka herself). Meanwhile she is the literal strongest one out of all them. She not only has the cunning needed to gain power but she has the strength too. I haven't seen her fight so I'm assuming she was mainly politically trained however in a tough situation we see her do what needs to be done and adapt. I think it's interesting how similar Mel is to Ambessa however Mel was not as a ruthless in her quest for power as her. I don't mean ruthless in the typical sense we saw what she did to Maddie without a second thought (I cheered when she did that) Ambessa was willing to do ANYTHING to protect Mel. She sent Mel away, she tried changing a city in order to fight the black rose. She even sacrificed her son to protect Mel (still a bit confused on what happened there) Basically Ambessa is willing to do whatever it takes to get what she wants, sparing no one. Mel however is not, her empathy is her greatest strength and that's what makes her a true warrior. It's one thing to win battles. It's another to know when to fight and when to stop.

I feel like I yapped a lot of nonsense here I can't lie
