I'm a little bit insane about how in novel canon the whole xiyao ending where Jin Guangyao wants to die with Xichen, who accepts, which then makes jgy change his mind and pushes him away at the last second isn't actually explicit. A lot of adaptations chose to make it so but in the novel this is all VERY up for interpretation.

Here's what actually happens in the text: Lan xichen stabs jgy, jgy moves away from lan xichen, xichen follows him, wwx realizes jgy is about to open the coffin and calls "watch out!" to lan xichen. Jgy unseals nmj, pushes xichen away, nmj kills jgy and they are both dragged into the coffin which is sealed again.

Here's what wei wuxian, our narrator, thinks is happening: Jin Guangyao wanted to lead lan xichen to his death out of revenge for stabbing him. Lan Xichen, unaware, simply followed Jin Guangyao to try and stop him from getting away. Wei wuxian's warning came too late, but Jin Guangyao- for an unknown reason- changed his mind at the last second and pushed lan xichen out of danger before lan xichen had any idea of what was going on.

Here's what most fans as well as the teams behind several adpatations think is happening: Jin Guangyao leads Xichen to nmj's coffin to die with him, Xichen accepts, because of this acceptance, proof xichen still cares for him, Jin Guangyao pushes him out of harm's way. Wei Wuxian just doesn't get that gay people who aren't him or Lan Wangji exist.

Here's what ALSO MIGHT BE HAPPENING: Jin guangyao wants to die in a different way than he is currently dying. Maybe he's afraid of what'll happen to his body after his death like he was scared for his mother's, maybe he wants to confront nmj one last time now that there's nothing more for him to lose, maybe - if he can't take her body with him- he'd at least like his final resting place to be where he buried his mother. Lan Xichen thinks he's trying to get away and follows but Jin Guangyao, who despite everything doesn't want him to die, pushes him away. Xichen doesn't know what happened until it's already happened. What he would've wanted if he had known remains up in the air.

Or, alternatively: Jin Guangyao's reasons are as above, but unbeknowst to Wei Wuxian, Xichen DOES know what jgy is about to do and either misinterprets this as an invitation to all die together, or inidividually decides he, too, is done, and wants to join his sworn brothers in the grave. To Jin Guangyao this has nothing to do with Lan Xichen, and he still doesn't want him to die, so he pushes him away against Lan Xichen's wishes.

Every single one of these interpretations is unhinged and they are all supported by the original text. It's like a choose your own adventure of tragic gay endings.

Zoro and Mihawk are so funny because they both think they are the only normies in a world of strange people.

But the truth is that they are so fucking weird even by their weird world’s standards.

I've been getting more and more into different subgenres of metal and it got me thinking that Eddie really deserved to keep living, if only so he could see all the evolution of metal and the six million subgenres and sub-subgenres. Sure, the 80s were when metal really started splitting into subgenres and it seems like Eddie favored thrash metal, but can you imagine how excited he'd be by groove metal, nu metal, goth metal, and all the DnD inspired power metal sub-subgenres? Imagine Steve finding a metal band he actually likes and it isn't really Eddie's thing, but it's metal and Steve likes it because now metal is something accessible and enjoyable to almost everyone in some form. In the early days, Corroded Coffin only sees regular metalheads in the crowd, but over the years they see punks and goths and grunge and a bunch of of other alternative styles because metal is for everyone and heavy metal concerts where the lead guitarist is a queer dilf are a safe space for all alt people to feel welcome.

The building in which I work custodial is ADA-complaint, but the more I look, the more I realize that it's really bad at being accessible in a lot of ways. [laundry list of complaints removed]

The designers weren't thinking about how to clean some of this stuff, and they weren't thinking about people who can't use both hands or can't see well. :P they should talk to me. I'd have suggestions.

Corroded Coffin would 100% do a Christmas album. The cover would be the 3 other members in elf costumes standing around Eddie, who's sitting on a red throne in a Santa costume. The back of the album has a picture of all their instruments wrapped in Christmas paper.

Just wanted to let you guys know that I might be a bit slower to post ATRF than I thought. Had some stuff happen yesterday (got a long text from my old roommate that was basically kicking me out of our friend group and now none of them are talking to me and are blocking me everywhere🙃), and now I’m in my feels era, so motivation to write is coming more slowly than usual.

Anyways, because I’m feeling particularly emotional rn, just wanted to say that you guys are awesome and I’m so glad to have mutuals and followers like you! You really do make my day better, and I’m so grateful for that!💕
