Tagged by @baiyubai thanks!
I just finished some stuff yesterday and am in between starting something new so I'll cheat a bit with the categories.
Currently watching:
Fairyland Lovers - I'm at 30/35 episodes but I just watch like one ep per week. I started this for Bai Yu but now I'm dragging myself through the last episodes for Xuan Lu as her character's background story should come up soon. The romance is kinda annoying as I see no chemistry between the main characters. Falling for someone just because she's the reincarnation of your previous love... I'm too aro for this.
The Lost Tomb Reboot - I just finished S2 yesterday. I started this for Zhu Yilong and it was entertaining enough, but the treatment of the female characters in this franchise... Being a woman in dmbj is more dangerous than being an actual grave robber :'(
Echo of Moonfall (Reboot side story) - Watched all of it yesterday because the friend who I watched Reboot with wanted more Liu Sang content.
Ping Yao Wang Shi (Reboot side story) - Same as Echo of Moonfall.
Currently Rewatching (aka I will make my friend watch these with me):
Mystery of the Abyss - Heihua movie was my first introduction to the dmbj franchise and I knew nothing about it while watching. Gonna be fun rewatching it with more knowledge now.
Word of Honor
Lighting Up The Stars - I might hate the haircut for Long-ge in this one, but the story and acting are amazing. Always a good cry.
Looking forward to:
Cloudy Mountain - The film will be released here on DVD/BD next month, I only watched it in cinemas with German dub so I'm excited for the original with Long-ge's voice.
The Comic Bang - Chinese drama adaptation of Gekkan shoujo nozaki-kun.
West Out of the Yu Men - This character of Bai Yu looks like he would go well with Zhu Yilong's Wu Xie. Also I'm taking anything with either of them that's not romance centric.
and 25 more titles on my plan to watch. and all the anime I've been neglecting since my descent into Guardian and Zhubai works... I need more time.
Tagging anyone who wants to do this :D

Weekly Reflection 3 - Deadline by Bang-Yao Liu
Deadline was such a fun and captivating short. I really enjoyed how the animation of the Post It notes was able to make the visuals feel tangible yet fantastical. An interesting element in using the Post It notes was playing with the shape of them. Because they are all square, there is a bit more of a uniform manner of animating them. The results are consistent, and were able to construct a very fun, pixelated, and almost video game-like aesthetic. It was interesting seeing how the Post It notes were able to represent his thoughts and distractions. It is especially impactful seeing how those thoughts grow as the video progressed and was represented by the range of the Post It notes expanding. That really made the whole video feel immersive and exciting.

In the old days, there were no restrictions on the words of a government official, so how could they be punished? Because I had poor qualifications and could not fulfill my duties while sitting in the position of Prime Minister unjustly, I made people with lower official positions discuss the wrong things about politics and edification, and it is all my fault. Jung Woo-Hyun's opinion is indeed appropriate and deserves commendation. 《History of Goryeo》, Volume 94 Seongjong took these words right and appointed Jeong Woo-hyeon as the governor, and also awarded Seo-hee a generous prize for helping her come to her senses. An anecdote showing Seohee's principle-oriented attitude and sense of responsibility. He was an upright bureaucrat with an attitude that valued these principles and a sense of responsibility, in addition to having the ability to grasp the international situation and a strategic perspective, so he went to the negotiations as an envoy to Ganghwa, where no one supported him, and took the initiative in negotiations with bold actions even at the position of the Geotan army. could have caught
After the meeting, he was forced to lie down in the 15th year of King Seongjong's reign, and was treated at a temple called Gaekguksa (開國寺). Seongjong personally went to visit Seohee and did his best to help Seohee recover, but in 997, Seongjong passed away first, and Seohui died at the age of 57 in 998, the year after Seongjong's death. His son, Seonul, also rose to the position of prime minister and became a great family with three generations serving as prime ministers while alive. After his death, all three generations enjoyed the honor of being enshrined in Jongmyo together with the king. but did not have children. Many people evaluate him as a diplomat as a national planner and strategist who laid the foundation for victory in the Yuyao War, but in fact, Dagger is the person who presented the biggest draft of the war. Likewise, Zhang Liang can be said to be comparable to Zhang Liang only in the Rui Yao War in that he presented a sketch of the future world to Liu Bang. He usually appears as a person who defeated the first invasion of the Khitan, but as the appointed professor mentioned, he is actually a person who can be said to be the best meritorious subject throughout the war against the Khitan. During the subsequent Yuyao War, great generals such as Yang Gyu and Kang Gam-chan were active, but if Seo Hui had not fortified this area, they would not have been able to play an active role, and Gaegyeong could have been captured several times during the Yuyao War. Until now, he was excellent at negotiations and speech to the extent that he was synonymous with a great diplomat, but above all, he was an excellent strategist and eminent minister with a long-term strategic eye and a view of the great power. Of course, this is the most important skill that a diplomat should have, but putting forward only a certain status as a diplomat for Seo-hee may make it difficult to properly evaluate Seo-hee's achievements.[19] The world knows that there were Goo Jun and Bupil[20] in Han Gat Song, but they do not know that Seo Hee existed in Goryeo. If it wasn't for Seohee's plan at the time, how could the land in the north of Jeolryeong be preserved? 《Yeosajegang》[21] Volume 3 Seongjonggi Gyesa Seongjong 12th year

China: lol bitch, please.
((Yeaaah, Liu Bang, aka the first emperor of the Han Dynasty, spread all that rumors about himself when he got the throne lmao. But like… probably none of it’s true since Liu Bang was born a peasant and had zero notable things about him before his participation in the rebellion against the Qin Dynasty. But hey the peasant man needed something to make himself seem as cool as the rest of the emperors in the Chinese history who are apparently all sons of dragons so XD

C-Novel Reading List
Are you new to the world of Chinese web-novels and don’t know where to start?
Maybe you’ve read a few and don’t know what to read next?
Do you wish there was place that had an interactive collection of c-novels that you can filter by genre and translation status, has information about the novels and links of where to read them?
May I present.... Shen-Daozhang’s C-Novel Reading List
I’m a librarian irl, and I love making lists of media. I also love Chinese web novels, and friends often ask me for recommendations, or for help finding where to read a novel. I also wanted a place for myself where I could remember what I thought about novels that I’d read. But I wanted it to be more than just a long text post list with links. I wanted it to be pretty! And I wanted it to be filterable by genre and translation status, and some other factors too.
So, to that end, I decided to make a interactive libguide list here on tumblr. I then decided that instead of just keeping it to myself and my friends after putting in all that work, it might be a resource that’s helpful to other people! Hence this post!
In addition to the list being filterable by genre, translation status, and whether it’s a good first read or one of my personal favorites, in each novel's description you can easily see how many chapters it is, its genre, if there are any adaptations, a quick summary- and, if I've read it, my thoughts. I have also included a link of where to read it, as well as links to my own tumblr posts and reblogs about the book, because if you're like me you're influenced to pick up a novel by seeing what it seems like through tumblr posts.
This is a perpetual WIP, so if you find any broken links, or think there’s a novel I should include, please let me know! 
 As of right now, the list includes (in no particular order) :
Ren Zha Fanpai Zijiu Xitong - Scum Villain's Self-Saving System Mo Dao Zushi - Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation Tian Guan Ci Fu - Heaven Official’s Blessing Erha He De Bai Mao Shizun - Husky and His White Cat Shizun Yuwu - Remnants of Filth Bing An Ben - Casefile Compendium Qian Qiu - Thousand Autumns Wushuang - Peerless Chenghua Shisi Nian - Fourteenth Year of the Chenghua Emperor / Sleuth of the Ming Dynasty Qi Ye - Lord Seventh Tian Ya Ke - Faraway Wanderers Sha Po Lang Lie Huo Jiao Chuo - Drowning Sorrows in Raging Fire Can Ci Pin - The Defectives / Imperfections Liu Yao - The Revitalization of Fu Yao Sect Zhenhuan - Guardian You Fei - Bandits / Legend of Fei Mo Du - Silent Reading Tai Sui Guomen - Through the Strait Gate Wu Wuran, Wu Gonghai - No Pollution, No Public Harm Tong Qian Kan Shi - Copper Coins Hei Yueguang Na Wen BE Ju Ben - Black Moonlight Holds the BE Script Huo Shou Zui - Living to Suffer Zhang Xiang Shou - Til Death Do Us Part Luan Shi Wei Wang - To Rule in a Turbulent World Dinghai Fusheng Lu - Epic of Divinity Light Tianbao Fuyao Lu - Legend of Exorcism Xiao Mogu - Little Mushroom Xiang Mi Chenchen Jin Ru Shuang - Heavy Sweetness, Ash Like Frost / Ashes of Love Lang Ya Bang - Nirvana in Fire Huang Jin Tai - Golden Stage / Golden Terrance Jiang Ye - Eternal Night / Nightfall / Ever Night Wuchang Jie - Impermanence Calamity Nan Chan Qing Yu Nian - Celebrating the Remaining Years / Joy of Life Fu Yao Huanghuo - Empress Fuyao / Legend of Fuyao Huang Quan - Rise of Phoenixes  Jing Wei Qing Shang - Clear and Muddy Loss of Love Nujiangjun He Zhang Gongzhu - Female General and Eldest Princess Bin bian bushi haitang hong - Winter Begonia Duzhu You Bing - The Governor's Illness/There’s Something Wrong With the Governor
Want the same thing with c-dramas? Good news I have one for that too!

Preface to the Biographies of the Eight Princes (Book of Jin 59)
自古帝王之臨天下也,皆欲廣樹蕃屏,崇固維城。唐、虞以前,憲章蓋闕,夏、殷以後,遺跡可知。然而玉帛會于塗山,雖云萬國,至於分疆胙土,猶或未詳。泊乎周室,粲焉可觀,封建親賢,並為列國。當其興也,周、召贊其升平;及其衰也,桓、文輔其危亂。故得卜世之祚克昌,卜年之基惟永。逮王赧即世,天祿已終,虛位無主,三十餘載。爰及暴秦,併吞天下,戒衰周之削弱,忽帝業之遠圖,謂王室之陵遲,由諸候之強大。於是罷侯置守,獨尊諸己,至乎子弟,並為匹夫,惟欲肆虐陵威,莫顧謀孫翼子。枝葉微弱,宗祐孤危,內無社稷之臣,外闕籓維之助。陳、項一呼,海內沸騰,隕身於望夷,系頸於軹道。事不師古,二世而滅。漢祖勃興,爰革斯弊。於是分王子弟,列建功臣,錫之山川,誓以帶礪。然而矯枉過直,懲羹吹齏,土地封疆,逾越往古。始則韓、彭菹醢,次乃吳、楚稱亂。然雖克滅權偪,猶足維翰王畿。洎成、哀之後,戚籓陵替,君臣乘茲間隙,竊位偷安。光武雄略緯天,慷慨下國,遂能除凶靜亂,復禹配天,休祉盛於兩京,鼎祚隆於四百,宗支繼絕之力,可得而言。魏武忘經國之宏規,行忌刻之小數,功臣無立錐之地,子弟君不使之人,徒分茅社,實傳虛爵,本根無所庇廕,遂乃三葉而亡。
Ever since ancient times, kings and emperors who presided over the realm wished to provide security and protection for their rule by appointing trusted people as feudal lords and placing them in command of strategic locations, like protecting a city by expanding and fortifying its walls. 
Though we know little of what took place in the mists of time prior to the sage rulers Tang (Yao) and Yu (Shun), by the time of the Xia and Yin (Shang) dynasties, we see some evidence of this principle already emerging. But although we read that jade and silk were distributed by Yu the Great (the founder of Xia) at Tushan and the records speak of "the myriad fiefs", so that we know that in principle there was a splitting of the land and a distribution of territory, still we do not know the precise details.
Matters become brighter by the dawn of the Zhou dynasty, where all becomes clear; we find the precise details of the organization of the feudal lords and how titles were granted to this relative or that worthy person, and that the realm was divided into particular fiefs and domains. When Zhou was ascendant and peaceful, we see the admirable conduct of the Dukes of Zhou and Shao; when Zhou was in decline, still we find Duke Huan of Qi and Duke Wen of Jin supporting the royal family through times of turmoil and danger. And thus their rulers were blessed with prosperity and success through the ages and the span of their rule was long indeed.
By the time of the last ruler of Zhou, King Nan, the blessings of Heaven had already expired. King Nan perished (in 256 BC), and then the realm had an empty throne and no sovereign for more than thirty years, until in the end the state of Qin conquered and annexed all the realm (in 221) through its violent barbarity. It was the belief of the First Emperor of Qin that the downfall of Zhou had been brought about because of the weakness and isolation of its kings, who had forgotten the farsightedness needed for the imperial enterprise, and that the royal house had become the plaything of the feudal lords, who took advantage to become great and powerful. Thus he did away with the whole feudal system and organized the realm into commandaries under the central control of the court, and he reserved all honor and majesty for himself alone, so that even his brothers and sons were no greater than commoners. In doing these things, it was the First Emperor himself who sought only to indulge his cruelty and flaunt his tyranny, for he gave no consideration of what might happen to his descendants after him. The branches and leaves of the tree of state were flimsy and weak, and the crown had few friends to turn to for aid; within, there were no subjects who would preserve the altars of state, and without, there were no lords who would guard and defend the imperial family. One cry of rebellion from Chen Sheng and Xiang Yu was all it took to set the whole realm within the Seas roiling like a cauldron; the Second Emperor of Qin lost his life at Wangyi Palace, and Ying Ziying surrendered at Zhidao with his seal around his neck. Qin failed to heed the teachings of the ancients, and thus their dynasty perished within two generations.
When Gaozu of Han (Liu Bang) rose to the fore, he made changes to correct these faults. He divided the realm and restored the system of the feudal lords, making princes of his younger relatives and granting fiefs to his accomplished ministers. Rivers and mountains were they granted, to serve as their belts and grindstones. The error of the early Han sovereigns was that they went too far in the other direction, like one who blows on hot soup so much that it grows cold; in the granting of lands and fiefs, they went beyond what the ancients had done. Thus they first had to execute Han Xin and pickle Peng Yue and afterwards experienced the crisis brought on by the Princes of Wu and Chu. But though they eventually stripped the feudal lords of the power to threaten the dynasty, the princes and nobles still retained enough power to protect the royal family from harm. Yet by the time of Emperors Cheng and Ai, again the situation had pivoted to the other extreme; the imperial relatives and feudal lords were oppressed and weak, allowing the great minister (Wang Mang) to take advantage of the opportunity and usurp the throne. Luckily, once Emperor Guangwu stitched the realm back together through his boldness and cunning, he once again generously distributed fiefs across the realm. Thus was he able to purge the wicked and quell the chaos. Han once more received the blessings of Heaven; they enjoyed peace and repose, flourishing between the two capitals (at Luoyang and Chang'an), and their legacy endured for four centuries. One could certainly say that it was because the extended royal clan once again exerted on the dynasty's behalf the strength that they had lost.
We may contrast this with Emperor Wu of Wei (Cao Cao), who was ignorant of the generosity needed to sustain the state and who through his suspicion cut those who might have supported his state down to size. His accomplished subjects never received even a spade of land to call their own, and his younger relatives reigned rather than ruled their domains; they were divvied up and sent off to pitiful dwellings, and their titles were form rather than substance. Wei had no foundation to grant it shelter, and thus it lasted no more than three eras.
有晉思改覆車,復隆磐石,或出擁旄節,蒞岳牧之榮;入踐臺階,居端揆之重。然而付託失所,授任乖方,政令不恆,賞罰斯濫。或有材而不任,或無罪而見誅,朝為伊、周,夕為莽、卓。機權失於上,禍亂作於下。楚、趙諸王,相仍構釁,徒興晉陽之甲,竟匪勤王之師。始則為身擇利,利未加而害及;初乃無心憂國,國非憂而奚拯!遂使昭陽興廢,有甚弈棋;乘輿幽縶,更同羑裏。胡羯陵侮,宗廟丘墟,良可悲也。
The Jin dynasty might have learned from these earlier examples. They were like drivers of a cart in a convoy which, seeing the carts in front of it topple and fall, might have profited by steering clear of the same danger. They could have laid a foundation for themselves solid as a rock. Some of their relatives and accomplished subjects might have been empowered with banner and scepter to lead troops out to the borders and carry out the labor of governing the land and protecting the capital, while others remained behind to serve in the government ministries and provide continuity in the administration. 
Instead, the opposite took place. Positions and appointments once granted were as soon withdrawn, and people were chosen for this role or that based only on the expediency of the moment; the government and its policies were inconstant, and rewards and punishments swirled together. Some with talent were never employed; some innocent of any crime were executed regardless. Those who in the morning were honored as the peers of Yi Yin or the Duke of Zhou were denounced by the same evening as the equals of Wang Mang or Dong Zhuo. Power and authority were surrendered above, while chaos and disaster spread below. 
The Princes of Chu, Zhao, and all the rest sought one after another to sow dissension; they acted righteous as though they were imitating the old "call to arms at Jinyang", but they never exhibited the conduct of cautious lords. They undertook their designs to grasp at profit for themselves, yet before the gains were in hand, doom overtook them; they never showed any concern for the state, so how could the state help but suffer calamity? Power changed hands more drastically than the pieces flip in a game of weiqi; men rose to power and were cast into prison with more dizzying speed than King Wen of Zhou's stint in the jail at Yuli. And in the end, the Xiongnu and the Jie pillaged and plundered the realm and the dynasty's ancestral temples were left empty and bare. Truly, a pitiful thought.
夫為國之有籓屏,猶濟川之有舟楫,安危成敗,義實相資。舟楫且完,波濤不足稱其險;籓屏式固,禍亂何以成其階!向使八王之中,一籓繄賴,如梁王之禦大故,若硃虛之除大憝,則外寇焉敢憑陵,內難奚由竊發!縱令天子暗劣,鼎臣奢放,雖或顛沛,未至土崩。何以言之?琅邪譬彼諸王,權輕眾寡,度長絜大,不可同年。遂能匹馬濟江,奄有吳會,存重宗社,百有餘年。雖曰天時,抑亦人事。豈如趙倫、齊冏之輩,河間、東海之徒,家國俱亡,身名並滅。善惡之數,此非其效歟!西晉之政亂朝危,雖由時主,然而煽其風,速其禍者,咎在八王,故序而論之,總為其傳云耳。
For those who serve the state by acting as its shield and screen are like the rowers on a boat crossing a river. Whether the boat enjoys peace or suffers calamity is entirely up to the collective efforts of the rowers. If they dip their oars in unison, though the river might have waves, they will not be enough to threaten the ship. And if the feudal lords act in unison to protect the state, how could turmoil ever grow so dire as to bring down the dynasty?
During the Han dynasty, there were the examples of the Prince of Liang (Liu Wu), who served without to oppose the treason of the Princes of Wu and Chu in their effort to overthrow the dynasty, and the Marquis of Zhuxu (Liu Zhang), who acted within to purge the Lü clan in their attempt to usurp the throne. If only these Eight Princes of Jin had done as they did! Though there might be foreign threats, if the Princes were united, how could such threats dare to despoil the realm? Or if there were internal dangers, even so, how could they have seized power? Even if the Son of Heaven was a blind fool or the chief ministers were arrogant and unrestrained, such things could have been dealt with; there might be shocks and quakes, but it would not have caused the mountain to collapse.
What is the proof of this? Consider how the Prince of Langye (Sima Rui) compared to the Eight Princes. His authority was less than theirs, and he had fewer troops than they did; he was a more distant relative than they, nor did he have their seniority. Yet he was able to cross south of the Yangzi by himself, take control of the regions of Wu and Kuaiji, and preserve and revive the imperial family, thus prolonging the dynasty for another century and more. Though one could argue that Heaven was helping him, still it required his own efforts to make it so. He was far different from the likes of Sima Lun or Sima Jiong or the ilk of Sima Yong or Sima Yue, who brought about the destruction of their families and their state and the annihilation of their lives and their honor! Could there be any clearer examples of the differences between good and evil?
Circumstance itself may have been the primary factor that caused the turmoil in Western Jin and the instability of its court. Yet it was these Eight Princes who fanned the flames of its destruction and hastened its demise. And having prefaced the discussion with these remarks, we have gathered their biographies here to illustrate our argument.

Hey I was wondering if you could please help me find an alternate fc for Crystal Liu? I'd originally casted her as my character Destiny because she had the "cute but dangerous" vibe but then I learned about her reaction to the Hong Kong protests and was like "nope". Her siblings are played by Xing En and Yang Mi. Though they don't have to look too similar because they don't really have genetics. They've existed since the big bang

Human always like to live by water. The Yellow River Basin in China also gave birth to the earliest Chinese culture, and China's floods seem to be quite frequent, the  five thousand years of Chinese history also was a history of water control.
In the Chinese legend, the water God Gonggong fought with the fire God Zhurong, Gonggong damaged the Buzhou mountains which supported the sky and earth, the water came out of the sky river, flooding the world. This was the first great flood. Finally, the human creator Nu WA made a multicolored divine stones out of hot fire
and mended the sky.
人类总是逐水而居。在中国的黄河流域也诞生了最早的华夏文化,而中国的水灾似乎特别多,中国人五千年历史,也是一部治水的历史。
传说水神共工与火神打架,一怒之下撞坏了支撑天地的不周山,天河的水流出,人间洪灾泛滥,这就是人类第一次大洪灾。最后,人类的创造者女娲娘娘炼成五彩巨石,终于修补了天空的漏洞。
