to continue my tradition of mdzs height posting, another character besides mo xuanyu who is routinely and unjustly described as tiny: Wen Qing.
according to the officially released heights, she and jin guangyao are roughly the same size. about five and a half feet tall.
which is on the small side for a man even in china, though not in medieval china, and is ofc loads smaller than the ridiculous giants making up most of the cultivator elite, but is not actually a small person.
that's statistically above average for a woman even in the modern US; in modern china it is often hard for women that height to find off-the-rack clothes. in a historical chinese setting she is mildly gargantuan. five foot six is a positively unmaidenly height.
wei wuxian (as i've previously discussed) is slightly over six feet tall at his original full growth, which is stupid tall even when you're an aristocrat who didn't starve as a child. wen qing is, in turn, too tall for wei wuxian to hook his chin over her head, even if he stands on his toes, unless she ducks.
he's got maybe more than half a head on her. she could headbutt him in the nose from a standing start, as could most adult men because he's a freak.
wen qing would walk among a group of normal-in-context women like a turkey among hens. she is not tiny.
i know cql kind of made her look that way, but in fairness their version of lan wangji is a stick of no great height also. and even on cql she's not particularly small, just exceedingly pale and slim with big eyes. i truly do not know why it's so popular to conceptualize her as teeny-tiny, except maybe for the contrast value. it's not even hornyposting.
#hoc est meum#mdzs#meta#wen qing#no sleep posting yay#averages#modern people run a lot taller than historical people on average#this is generally not because of any changes in the genestock you dig#it's because modern people statistically eat more consistently#get way more protein#and are way less prone to serious childhood diseases that if survived often stunt the growth#idk how much of the cultivator gigantism should be attributed to disease resistance and wealth#and how much to selective breeding#but wen qing is getting full measure of all these advanages#wwx gets none but is still huge which is the subject of#other posts of mine#fandom has no sense of scale#but in fairness neither does mxtx

is sugishita a big silly stupid dumdum?
my staunch belief is that sugishita is NOT DUMB. hes pretty smart, actually. somehow i fell into the illusion of sugishita being a dumbass, which, of course he is, but, like, hes not dumb, or super naive, or an idiot (an archetypical baka) (affectionate) the way sakura is. see: sugishita not falling for suo's bullshit
extremely unimpressed
but he gloats a little too much about this... maybe hes usually pretty baka stupid but not as much as sakura.
his favorite subject is chemistry! dumdum heads like sakura or kaji either have 0 or have PE as their favorite subject. even if hes interested in it because of gardening, he knows the material.
so heres what i think: i think he gets average grade. ok grades. which is great for somebody who go to bofurin and sleep through class since the 2nd grade. in a normal high school, he would be a good ole just-below-average to average to barely-above-average student. in furin, this would probably put him at the upper quartile of his class. being quiet and socially awkward doesnt mean hes a big dumdum in everything else. hes not good at expressing himself, yes -- i think sugishita's development will likely center around him learning how to express himself and may end with him helping somebody else articulating their feelings, or (framed as unexpectedly) stepping up to a leadership role temporarily, like in a fight -- but, like, that doesnt make him dumb. a stereotypical teenage boy is bad at words but good at science, for example.
heres my headcanon/fanfique(tm): it would be so funny if sugishita is the only one to go to college after graduation. he scores perfectly average in every subject, except for chemistry, which hes solidly miles above average. not genius, not once-in-a-lifetime talent, not award-winning even, but he starts off college already knowing two years worth of a chemist education.
which confound everyone who sees his grades and read his applications. suo and kiryuu passionately discussed and strategized on how sugi can get into college, from local ones to travel-to-tokyo ones, and suo even flirted with the idea of sugi getting into utokyo (too far from home, sugi absolutely cannot be left to his own device in a metropolitan area, chance of getting in ~1%). their homeroom teacher and guidance counselor almost went bald deciding how they should write his recommendation letter (quiet but helpful? righteous anger? he-looks-scary-but-hes-a-good-kid-we-promise?). they werent even sure if he was at college-reading level going into third year (nirei helped. a lot.) at the end, they settle at the nearest college in town, which is fine and decent enough that they harbored some doubt if sugishita is going to get in. umemiya encouraged sugi to apply to several places (just in case).
to the surprise of most (but not suo, kiryuu, or umemiya), sugishita got into college. its a fine one. its close enough that he still lives at home, go to college full time, and work part-time at whatever establishment umemiya now works at (my headcanon is that he starts a farm. kiryuu uses his nepo baby money to be the primary stakeholder). sugi's grades in college is good enough that he contemplated getting a phd at some point. but then he decided, nah, and follow the agricultural science track, graduate, maybe get a masters, and work at the farm with ume-senpai. sometimes, when the local elementary school go to visit, ume pressured sugi into giving them a chemistry-focused tour.
andddd this is basically a fanfic. maybe i'll write it someday.
#no more Backstory Speculations. lets move to#Can These Children Make It To Higher Education Speculations#in sugishita's case. yes. i believe in him.#having “furin high school” in his transcript surely confounded every college committee in japan but its fine. his grade is ok.#wbk#wind breaker#sugishita kyotaro#yes i love farmer ume. theres no other option. he loves planting he loves farming hes singlehandedly reviving the agricultural workforce#my roomie and i were talking about it#ume would absolutely give vegetables to the orphanage for free#and hold barbeque parties on the farm every month#u know. chika is kinda autistic-core. i think he'd enjoy being a farmer too.#how did ume start a farm u may ask#of course. its from kiryuu's nepo baby money bag. he convinced his fathers/brothers company (board) to invest in Local Agriculture#and funded the opening of the farm#he doesnt give a shit if its profitable or not. they can lose 10mil a month for all he cares. but he believes in Agriculture#how did kiryuu managed to convince his fathers/brothers? tax breaks#do i think the other children can get into college? of course suo kiryuu and nirei can#side notes my hc is that nirei's and sugi's average grade is about the same. nirei's being slightly higher perhaps#but will they?#kiryu: no. fuck college. fuck the establishment. maybe he'll go to beauty school or something. or just enjoy the generational wealth#i love unemployed kiryuu so much u cant imagine#on a second thought: gender studies student kiryuu (lol. fuck u dad.) or pro-gamer kiryuu.#i can see suo and nirei going for college maybe. but suo doesnt seems like he has that aspirations. nirei could go for journalism.#u dont need a degree to be a childrens author <3 or to be a martial arts master#well this is getting real long#wbk_misc.txt

[T]he Dutch Republic, like its successor the Kingdom of the Netherlands, [...] throughout the early modern period had an advanced maritime [trading, exports] and (financial) service [banking, insurance] sector. Moreover, Dutch involvement in Atlantic slavery stretched over two and a half centuries. [...] Carefully estimating the scope of all the activities involved in moving, processing and retailing the goods derived from the forced labour performed by the enslaved in the Atlantic world [...] [shows] more clearly in what ways the gains from slavery percolated through the Dutch economy. [...] [This web] connected them [...] to the enslaved in Suriname and other Dutch colonies, as well as in non-Dutch colonies such as Saint Domingue [Haiti], which was one of the main suppliers of slave-produced goods to the Dutch economy until the enslaved revolted in 1791 and brought an end to the trade. [...] A significant part of the eighteenth-century Dutch elite was actively engaged in financing, insuring, organising and enabling the slave system, and drew much wealth from it. [...] [A] staggering 19% (expressed in value) of the Dutch Republic's trade in 1770 consisted of Atlantic slave-produced goods such as sugar, coffee, or indigo [...].
---
One point that deserves considerable emphasis is that [this slave-based Dutch wealth] [...] did not just depend on the increasing output of the Dutch Atlantic slave colonies. By 1770, the Dutch imported over fl.8 million worth of sugar and coffee from French ports. [...] [T]hese [...] routes successfully linked the Dutch trade sector to the massive expansion of slavery in Saint Domingue [the French colony of Haiti], which continued until the early 1790s when the revolution of the enslaved on the French part of that island ended slavery.
Before that time, Dutch sugar mills processed tens of millions of pounds of sugar from the French Caribbean, which were then exported over the Rhine and through the Sound to the German and Eastern European ‘slavery hinterlands’.
---
Coffee and indigo flowed through the Dutch Republic via the same trans-imperial routes, while the Dutch also imported tobacco produced by slaves in the British colonies, [and] gold and tobacco produced [by slaves] in Brazil [...]. The value of all the different components of slave-based trade combined amounted to a sum of fl.57.3 million, more than 23% of all the Dutch trade in 1770. [...] However, trade statistics alone cannot answer the question about the weight of this sector within the economy. [...] 1770 was a peak year for the issuing of new plantation loans [...] [T]he main processing industry that was fully based on slave-produced goods was the Holland-based sugar industry [...]. It has been estimated that in 1770 Amsterdam alone housed 110 refineries, out of a total of 150 refineries in the province of Holland. These processed approximately 50 million pounds of raw sugar per year, employing over 4,000 workers. [...] [I]n the four decades from 1738 to 1779, the slave-based contribution to GDP alone grew by fl.20.5 million, thus contributing almost 40% of all growth generated in the economy of Holland in this period. [...]
---
These [slave-based Dutch commodity] chains ran from [the plantation itself, through maritime trade, through commodity processing sites like sugar refineries, through export of these goods] [...] and from there to European metropoles and hinterlands that in the eighteenth century became mass consumers of slave-produced goods such as sugar and coffee. These chains tied the Dutch economy to slave-based production in Suriname and other Dutch colonies, but also to the plantation complexes of other European powers, most crucially the French in Saint Domingue, as the Dutch became major importers and processers of French coffee and sugar that they then redistributed to Northern and Central Europe. [...]
The explosive growth of production on slave plantations in the Dutch Guianas, combined with the international boom in coffee and sugar consumption, ensured that consistently high proportions (19% in 1770) of commodities entering and exiting Dutch harbors were produced on Atlantic slave plantations. [...] The Dutch economy profited from this Atlantic boom both as direct supplier of slave-produced goods [from slave plantations in the Dutch Guianas, from Dutch processing of sugar from slave plantations in French Haiti] and as intermediary [physically exporting sugar and coffee] between the Atlantic slave complexes of other European powers and the Northern and Central European hinterland.

honestly i think a big part of cursedwip is asking the question “and what if the vampire was poor.”
#like. dee’s family is wealthy. much more classically vampiric.#even tho they’re not immortal they’ve been amassing wealth & power for generations in a way that makes them feel immortal.#but adrianna is broke.#you don’t see vampires in media being poor.#how does that affect the way they are perceived. what unique challenges does that present.#(this is in response to the ‘dracula didn’t live in a castle bc he’s a vampire but because he’s a count’ thing)#like. i can’t think of any vampire media where the vampire isn’t well-off and living on some elevated plane of class & wealth.#even in the YA vampire craze. they were all going to elite schools or had basements full of portraits or houses on acres of land.#adrianna dropped out of school and can’t pay her rent.#and even if she WASNT a criminal. public perception would turn her into a predator anyway.#bc she can’t afford blood from the hospital. so that would make her Dangerous to every human she meets right??#(not right. but. when there’s bigotry! and fear! etc!!)#izzy.txt#cursedwip

i’ll never be more patriotic than i am when non-usamericans speak on us politics and culture. i actually don’t need a lecture on class disparity and the dangers of romanticizing wealth from the person whose country was responsible for margaret thatcher. rah rah eagle screech boston tea party, as we say in the states
#the AUDACITY to claim that americans writ large obsessively worship and chase wealth#and that folks in the UK don’t?????#bye this is how i know you’re chronically online and only watch influencers and celebrities#and as if conservatism isn’t on the rise globally get out of hereeeeeee#diary posting#the us is responsible for a lot but let’s not forget who put colonization in vogue 🤨#this is abt a yt video btw but also this ticks me off just generally peace and love

idk man i just think that if u celebrate resources many people desperately rely on collapsing bc it symbolizes the collapse of the bigger harmful system ur maybe overlooking the actual people part of why we want these systems to end. if libraries are collapsing but were gaining more and more millionaires, i think laughing at ppl who use libraries bc their 'precious system' is collapsing is maybe the wrong response.
#i speak#text#idk so many ppl on here just. lack care to such an extreme extent that their interest in leftist politics actually has nothing to do with#improving material conditions for the working class and really just has to do with them feeling like they have a justification#for acting horrifically awful to other people. like to the point that they will see someone and make assumptions#about their experiences and resources and say vile things about them based on those assumptions but hey its ok bc theyre just being#a True Revolutionary. talking about how some people Probably Actually Dont Deserve To Live Based On This Split Second Assumption is praxis!#like. i dont know how any of you expect to build any sort of community after The Revolution when this is how you treat everyone In General.#do you think that after youve gotten rid of The Ontologically Bad People Whom Its Okay To Dehumanize youre gonna suddenly become someone wh#cares for the people around them? because you wont! youre going to look around at everyone left and come up with a NEW Type Of Evil Person#because you function in terms of 'me vs The People Who Arent Human' and you will ALWAYS be on the lookout for which people you can sort#into that second pile. but you have no self awareness about this so you will ALWAYS find ways to morally justify dehumanizing other people.#like idk how to explain to you that there is a difference between the billionaire who has exploited millions of people in order to hoard an#obscene amount of wealth and fucking jessica who likes to get an ice coffee before her shift at nordstrom#but idk maybe it makes me a liberal if i think someone who has no material power in the system doesnt deserve to die just because they#didnt commit their entire life to dismantling the system instead of just trying to get by.#because Moral Purity is the litmus test for who deserves personhood right?#i just think some of yall never matured past high school actually...

constabell 💭

there's this one short song that i think abt a lot which works really nicely with them... it's called A Lady by Tally Hall the lyrics are super meaningful and i imagine it goes really nicely with how nørton thought of her
the first line as as goes —
i know a lady, good and evil
obviously said lady is irene. when he calls her good, he refers to her personality - as lore points that irene was constantly finding ways to see if he was fine, dropping by to offer warm bread, some coins that were stolen from him, or even a new candle that could replace his melted one. it could be anything, just for her to see to it that he was... okay. this to him, is her good traits - what made him initially grow on her. the evil traits refer to her lifestyle - he has nothing but distaste for people in the upper class- which she indeed is... but that's the only thing that made him distance himself from her - he just couldn't trust the fact that she was from a wealthy family. who knows if she's being genuine with her actions or if she's having ulterior motives (the latter is most definitely not true however.)
told me that i was a gentleman
the main reason why she even bothered to care in the first place was the fact that she noticed that he was such a hard worker, yet he still lives impoverished. he even gets robbed of his efforts from the coworkers. the said scenario is was caused her to make a move and show deep concern for him. he was indeed a diligent person, and even caring for his father's old friend, visiting the old lad in the nursing home. she wanted him to know that he deserved so much better but he was sometimes hard on himself to really believe what she's saying
wait for the girl to blossom into colors that grow where you can
this one's the last, but it's a little tricky to decipher! so here's a more symbolic take on what i want to think this means:
at some point does she confess that even if she wanted be with him, she could not - for she was already arranged to be with someone else - but she promised somehow she'll find a way to be with him even if it meant it would disappoint her family. it was definitely a selfish move on her part.
but all her life - irene never felt like she really truly got to experience the life she wanted because she was playing the life her family wanted. she had hoped that... if she'll truly find way to embrace the life she wants, she'll start with him. (wait for the girl to blossom into color).
i imagine this whole promise has been made post-explosion, she nursed him back to health in secret and she confessed everything when he kept asking why did she always bother to care for him even in potential death.
she was mostly keen on helping him, but as time went on and the more he softened up to her, it was hard to deny the fact that she's starting to see something charming in him that gives her more purpose to see him.
irene was no different from nørton in reality, she was born in a difficult time and she remembered everything from her old days she was only lucky now because she was adopted and she has everything penny alive now. it still left her hollow inside though, wanting something more to live for and she was stuck with this resentment. but then seeing him where he is, simply inspired her that even if he's stuck like this, he's still finding ways to make a change and irene simply admired it. she could... give him the change if she wanted, and she did.
she just needed to figure out how to escape her current predicament to be with him
#now that i think about it... i like how I've written irene#like. part of her has a good heart but#she doesn't seem to care about her family - its not that they're neglecting her but - they don't exaclty give the love and connection#she's only there to ... marry. increase family wealth. be a bridge for the next generations who knows#irene felt connected to nørton cuz he was one of the people who just... started being nice to her (mostly because she brute forced her way)#shoutout to n.aib and emma though because they also made her feel like she was appreciated and cared for 😭😖#oh man i just realized i could've written this better with emma and nai.b mentioned AAGSGUS THE TUNNEL VISION#WAHH THAT'S OK THO ill... find a way next time i think flflfkfkfk#💚 constabell#I SHOULD PROBABLY FIX THE TAG. RENAME IT CONSTABELL#i deadass forgot constabell is the shipname i used for them why did i start using nortene AHAH#then again in id.v ship name fashion - nortrene is most fitting but#constabell is a BANGER name#~ rambling

Hello besties
First things first, happy new year! I've been super busy ever since I've started my master's degree in France, (still waiting for my bachelor's degree to get sorted out by the unis.........) so I haven't been able to be online much.
I also haven't really drawn anything in a month, simply because I've had so many things to do irl
Either way, I'm currently chilling with @cheeseballs-sao and I'm going back to Germany on the 4th and then I'll have to be in France again the next day. Hopefully my life becomes less stressful during my second semester 😭 It's definitely better than the 3 semesters I did in France during the bachelor's program but it's still very exhausting, lol
Been waiting for the office which approves the state scholarships to get back to me since September, they've just ghosted me and I kinda need money 😐 been living off of my savings for 4 months and I don't want to wait any longer tbh
Either way, onto an easy 2024 hopefully 👌🏼 I don't have the strength for another turbulent year
#laber net#Border force in England wouldn't let me into the country for an hour at the airport#why is my life like that 😭😭#pls Bafög i hate you but I need you#my first mistake in life was not being born into generational wealth lol#Love how I can't leave problems that should've been solved a long time ago behind#like the scholarship money and my goddamn bachelor's degree#too tired to complain but yeah
