Getting this off my chest, but I worked in a small museum at my job and we had a display about the indigenous people who lived in the area. I was asked twice what they were called (the display was directly in front of them when they asked), and twice I referred to them in the present tense and stated that they still live in the area, and TWICE my information was retold in the PAST TENSE and everything else ignored.
Only once did a random guy who gave off weird vibes at first ask if we had any books about the native people because he could not find any anywhere and really wanted to learn and support them. Went out of our way to jot down titles written by members of the tribe, and he was so sweetly grateful.
People really do just default to "I miss the natives. Sometimes, it's like I can still hear their voices" when they are literally still here

First date
Lan Xichen feels - nervous. Anxious, to be more precise. Incredibly out of his depth, in fact. With all that he's been through, one might think he's ready for anything and nothing phases him anymore.
Wrong.
The great and mighty Zewu-Jun is downright terrified of - don't laugh - going on a date. It wasn't even his idea - his uncle decided it was time for him to visit some matchmakers so he can "pass on the Lan heritage", or whatever other elegant string of words he used to signal that Xichen needed to have a child - and, after a short meeting, the matchmakers found him a date.
Except, Lan Xichen has never been on a date. Of course, he's read plenty about it (Ouyang Zizhen's not-so-secret black market of romance stories has more clients than he could ever imagine), but reading and doing are worlds apart. And Xichen is a bit too nervous to remember the syrupy stuff in those books anyway.
This is ridiculous, and he knows it. He's neither blind, nor deaf or an idiot - he knows he's highly sought after and that should, technically, mean he has nothing to worry about.
Still, he worries.
Romance is... not something he's generally paid much attention to. Yes, he's had crushes before, but nothing that lasted more than a few months, and with the turn that his life has taken, love was rightfully the last thing on his mind.
And now, freshly out of seclusion, barely able to stand on his own two feet politically-wise, he has to go on a date. He'd rather listen to sect leader Yao yap on about the lack of respect and discipline among the youth or something.
There is a knock on the lanshi's door and Xichen knows who it is without even needing to ask. Wangji walks in, carrying some tea - and Xichen sort of envies him right now. What does he know about the perils of dating? He's only ever liked one person, that person happened to also like him back, and then they got married.
Well, to be fair, there was a bit more to that story, but the point is, they never had to actually date.
"How are you feeling, brother?" Wangji asks, kind and supportive, and Xichen feels like the world has turned upside down. Isn't it his duty to be kind and supportive of his brother's love life?
"I am... well." Xichen lies as he fixes his robes for the hundredth time. "This is new for me, so I am a bit-"
"Scared."
"Nervous."
Xichen glares at his brother in the mirror, but if Wangji sees it, he doesn't comment on it. He better not. Like he's one to talk. When he and Wei Wuxian married, he paced around the room for three hours straight from the nerves.
"You have no reason to be so jittery."
Xichen closes his eyes so he doesn't roll them. Says the man who still gets jittery when he sees his husband after a day being apart.
"I am only trying to help. Hearing encouraging words might ease your worries."
Xichen sighs. "I doubt that is going to work."
"What would work, then?"
"Not having to go."
"Avoiding things does not make them go away." A half smile. "You told me that."
"I should be more careful of what I say to you, then." Xichen finds himself smile as well. "My own brother using my own words against me."
Xichen takes the tea cup his brother has poured for him and sits across from Wangji. The silence is comforting, familiar, and Xichen finds himself remembering how he would try to coax his brother into just admitting his feelings for the man that he's now tied his fate to.
"Wei Ying and I have done research about your date. Lady Ming appears to be a respectable lady."
"Research?" Xichen lifts an amused eyebrow. "Did you and Wei-gongzi stalk her?"
Wangji closes his eyes to avoid his brother's gaze. "...I wouldn't necessarily call it that."
"What would you call it then? Espionage?"
"As I've already said, research."
A laugh is pulled out of Xichen before he can stop it. "I appreciate the effort, though I hope you did not scare my date before I even met her."
"She is not easily startled."
"And you know this due to research."
Wangji doesn't respond, but his ears pink up a little. He isn't going to tell his brother how he and Wei Ying found that out, or how he had to pay for Lady Ming's landscaping out of pocket. In their defense, her garden really is a miniature jungle.
"I know you are nervous about rejection." Lan Wangji says after a while, and Xichen nearly chokes on his tea. Leave it to his brother to not mince his words.
"Everybody worries about that." Xichen tries, "It's part of the process."
"It is. I was too. But unless you take the leap, you will never see what's on the other side."
Xichen smiles. "It's as if I'm listening to myself."
"You would do better to listen to your own advice sometimes."
---
"So, how is he?" Wei Ying asks from his spot lounging on the bed. "A big anxious mess?"
Lan Zhan takes off his shoes and his outer robe, joining his husband. "Expectedly."
A teasing laugh, "Runs in the family, I guess."
"Wei Ying."
"Don't give me that. You know I'm right. You were the same."
Lan Zhan nuzzles into his neck, leaving a kiss there. "Still am."

The fact that Hozier's Eat Your Young, doesn't start with "I'm starvin', Marvin," is a massive oversight for which I will forgive the songwriter this one time.

How come nobody talks about how Snot created 2 of the best anti hate songs
Stoopid is all about how hate and ignorance blinds people and ultimately makes them more hateful and all of this is just because they don’t like something seen as strange
Snooze Button is all about how our government takes rights away from us and how people just let it happen and hit the metaphorical snooze button on revolution

Navy. We see your tags. 😂

Bahahaha. Good! 😏
Look, whether you believe Steve slept with Bucky or someone else, the guy was not a virgin. 😂 I know it's a hot topic because of She-Hulk, but it was even discussed in 2021 that writer Kevin McFeely doubted Steve was a virgin and lost it on the USO tour:
‘I think he loses his virginity!’ he exclaimed, before adding: ‘Why do people think he’s a virgin?’
Going into further detail about when Cap might have done the deed during his USO tour, he continued: ‘If you look like that, and you’re going to city to city, and you’re signing autographs for the likes of the ladies that he’s signing the autographs for, I’ve got to imagine that [he lost his virginity]’.
Co-writer Christopher Markus also weighed in as he stated: ‘Steve Rogers isn’t a prude. He may be occasionally presented that way. He’s a guy that believes in right and wrong and all these things, but he’s not a choirboy. He’s a World War II veteran.’
*****
So, not a prude. Not a choir boy. Steve Rogers fucked and he keeps fucking. 😉
Love and thanks! ❤️
