Does anyone else feel like they're awake for the first time in years?

The past ~5-8 years have felt like I was watching them in a dream. I finally feel awake, but everything is a shit show.
I love the trend of people posting their cats and saying, "Their greed sickens me." With a clip of the cat acting bonkers over something.

Very cat person trend.
A neurodivergent hack that I saw people love and I've been doing for years: buy all the same socks so you never have to sort them, they all match each other.
When my e-reader tells me how long it will take me to finish a book, it makes me feel competitive in the same way as racing my own ghost in Mario Kart did as a child. I know it's based on my previous experiences, and I'm unlikely to have changed, but I'm obviously better than myself now, dammit.
"People have to be pretending to love this!"
"People have to be pretending to hate this!"

People actually just have different opinions about stuff. Are you good?
I hate when I make a post about a book I liked, and people leave comments telling me why they didn't like it. Do I look like the manager? Why are you telling me?
Being in the #qjj fandom is great because so many people think a ton of the things we say are fanon, but no, that's all T97. She did that, canonically.

It's not OOC, it's a character arc!

My sympathy for people struggling to understand QJJ has morphed into contempt.

Read something else. Damn.
My copy of Drowning Sorrows in Raging Fire is lost in the mail 😭
It's been within an hour of where I live for like a week
And that's usually being generous, since in cases like Qiang Jin Jiu and Nan Chan, I spent literal years telling people where they could read them before they got licensed by English publishers.
I'll put spoiler warnings for about 6 months after an official release. It's on you to avoid if you haven't gotten to it yet after that.

All books/authors are political passively, but some books/authors are political actively.
I'll hate a book after 1 chapter, idc. "You can't hate on a book you didn't finish." I can, in fact, hate on anything I want at any point in time, and literally no one can stop me.

Honestly, one of the healthiest family dynamics I've ever read. And it makes so much sense as to why Xiao Chiye is so well grounded.
The worst consequence of the Nan Chan fandom being so small is that there's no art of the dragon mating season scene.... where I believe he was pretty dragon-y.

"Why are all of T97's main characters so distant?" [at first]
Their minds are actively trying to protect them from reliving their trauma while also constantly reminding them of it. They're doing their best.

"I don't understand Shen Zechuan’s actions or what he's feeling (early on)."
He is traumatized. He was one of the only survivors from a massacre of 30k+(?), some of whom were his family, AND he was blamed for it. He is disconnected from every decision he has to make to survive (at first).

“You can do as your heart desires.” Xiao Chiye whispered into his ear. “With me here, you will never fall.”

I think the danmei animals should be called danimals. I don't care if it's yogurt.
I think I get in my own way 99.9% of the time. I really think there aren't a whole lot of other things in my way. Unfortunately, I am no match for me.
