Do you think about the way that Sun Wukong in the show views Qi Xiaotian as the most wonderful thing in the world?
Do you think about the stages of self-love that must go through his head as he watches Qi Xiaotian, a fogged up mirror of himself, cry ever so freely and get pulled into a group of people who and adore him and how he watches him grow brilliantly like a star slowly staging itself into a sun?
Do you think Sun Wukong, Victorious Fighting Buddha, a pillar of heroism and hope and inspiration, sees this young version of himself in Xiaotian and thinks, I adore you, I love you, I think you are the most wonderful thing, and I will never let you become what I am, ever, and thus lets him have stability and joy and hope and never brings him down because he could never have that for himself when he was younger? Because he was forced to find enlightenment as a punishment for an action of chaos he did not pursue out of selfish desire to become the number one being in the world to rule over everything—but as a way to appease a man and warrior and general who thought he was perfect and ran him down until he was nothing more than an angry caged demon under a mountain?
Do you think about how everyone abandons Wukong and Wukong abandons Xiaotian through and through but never with selfish desire? Never does he leave with the idea of, Lords, I need to get away from him, he’s too much, I can’t handle him, but with the thought of a worried love that plagues him even as he smashes through his very core memories of punishment and isolation? How he would break Heaven and Earth for this young adult who looks at him as if he is the greatest person in the world? How he adores Qi Xiaotian, this foolish, hyperactive, eager and beloved version of himself—how he adores this kid because he sees a way for him to diverge from the same paths he took when he was younger and how he never once feared him for who he was?
Do you think about how Sun Wukong—someone who Only values people by how much they’re worth—smiles at Qi Xiaotian and asks if he’s alright and covers him with his whole body and holds back all of his power… because he adores his apprentice and he would never do anything to hurt him?
Do you think Sun Wukong knew he was capable of feeling such love?
We know that Facebook is brainscorching your parents and tiktok is brainscorching your cousins, but some of you refuse to admit that you got your brain scorched here. However unlike those sites there isn't an algorithm here you just make bad choices.

Hi, Tumblr. It’s Tumblr. We’re working on some things that we want to share with you.
AI companies are acquiring content across the internet for a variety of purposes in all sorts of ways. There are currently very few regulations giving individuals control over how their content is used by AI platforms. Proposed regulations around the world, like the European Union’s AI Act, would give individuals more control over whether and how their content is utilized by this emerging technology. We support this right regardless of geographic location, so we’re releasing a toggle to opt out of sharing content from your public blogs with third parties, including AI platforms that use this content for model training. We’re also working with partners to ensure you have as much control as possible regarding what content is used.
Here are the important details:
We already discourage AI crawlers from gathering content from Tumblr and will continue to do so, save for those with which we partner.
We want to represent all of you on Tumblr and ensure that protections are in place for how your content is used. We are committed to making sure our partners respect those decisions.
To opt out of sharing your public blogs’ content with third parties, visit each of your public blogs’ blog settings via the web interface and toggle on the “Prevent third-party sharing” option.
For instructions on how to opt out using the latest version of the app, please visit this Help Center doc.
Please note: If you’ve already chosen to discourage search crawling of your blog in your settings, we’ve automatically enabled the “Prevent third-party sharing” option.
If you have concerns, please read through the Help Center doc linked above and contact us via Support if you still have questions.
