I watched American Born Chinese, and it is an enjoyable series, honestly. It's silly and fun but it's also a show with a really big heart, it's a show that doesn't take itself too seriously but also makes a point to open important conversations regarding culture and identity, typecasting/stereotyping, the importance of speaking out for yourself, the struggle of breaking the glass ceiling in industries, etc. I also love the many references the show made to art/media forms, like the manga, sitcom, and xianxia, so it's like a study in intertextuality but also feels like a celebration of art. Overall, I could feel that this show was made with a lot of earnest love and thought, and I really hope it gets to tell its story in full!!

American Born Chinese
Tumblr media
TV Shows/Dramas watched in 2023
American Born Chinese (2023, USA)
Creator: Kelvin Yu (based on the graphic novel by Gene Luen Yang)
Mini-review:
I loved this so much! Sure, it has its flaws, but its strengths far outweigh them. The show feels refreshing and almost groundbreaking thanks to the way it takes inspiration from Journey to the West and Chinese culture. With these elements, the show gets to tell a fantastic story about coming of age and finding your identity. It also tackles the topic of representation head-on, with a beautiful monologue by Ke Huy Quan in one of the last episodes. I can't think of many TV shows that talk so frankly about this, and American Born Chinese deserves big kudos for that.
But the main reason why this show is a hit is its cast. For starters, we have legends like Michelle Yeoh, the aforementioned Ke Huy Quan and Daniel Wu. Obviously, they are as great as anyone would expect from them. But the young cast also delivers: Ben Wang's comedic timing is perfect, and Jimmy Liu pretty much steals the show with an incredibly charming and adorable performance. On top of all this, the action scenes are fantastic, with amazing choreographies and very stylish and cinematic direction. Also, I thought this was supposed to be a limited series, but I guess it's not? I'm not complaining, cause I really enjoyed it, but I hope it's doesn't end up being cancelled.
P.S. Why the f**k is Disney+ not promoting the hell out of this? They have Michelle Yeoh, Ke Huy Quan and Stephanie Hsu from Everything Everywhere All At Once, plus Destin Daniel Cretton, who directed the Shang-Chi movie, and they are doing nothing to promote it. It's seriously baffling.

 ‘ 🌼 ’ for my muse to talk about their mother. com @spaceny

Tumblr media
❝ minha mãe é... tudo na minha vida. sem ela eu nem estaria aqui. eu sei, eu sei, hahaha, literalmente, porque ninguém nasce de abiogênese... mas foi por causa do esforço e da dedicação e do apoio dela que eu consegui me tornar quem eu sou hoje. ela é a mulher, não, a pessoa mais forte que eu conheço. eu imagino que deve ter sido difícil... deixar o ex-marido dela, vir pra outro país, criar uma criança completamente sozinha sabendo que você vai ser julgada por todos os cantos e nem o governo vai te apoiar direito. e ainda ter que ser uma profissional exemplar, e conciliar tudo isso. e mesmo assim ela sempre esteve ali pra mim, sabe? até pra ouvir e validar as preocupações mais banais de pré-adolescente que eu tivesse. ela nunca fez eu me sentir menos, ou um fardo. agora que eu sou adulto... eu até sei de alguns sacrifícios que ela teve que fazer por mim, mas não sei se um dia vou entender toda a extensão deles. eu imagino que ela sentiu medo muitas vezes, mas não podia demonstrar... só espero fazer valer a pena de algum jeito. ser alguém que ela possa se orgulhar. e só espero poder ver ela feliz, também. que ela possa respirar agora e ir viver a vida dela mesma, também..., ❞ respirou fundo, piscando rápido para conter a queimação em seus olhos. exalou um riso. ❝ é, perdão, é que falar disso me deixa um pouco emocionado... ❞

❝ mamãe... aiya. o que você quer que eu diga? ela é tão difícil. estar com ela dói. ok? eu me sinto tão fraca quando eu to com ela... e isso é todo dia. parece que eu nunca vou ser boa o suficiente pra ela. sabe? que droga de filha editora-chefe de uma revista, de morar em uma cobertura... no fim do dia eu não tenho um trabalho que preste, o país todo sabe que a filha dela é uma sapatão... ai, porque eu preciso ser mais assim, fazer mais isso, mais aquilo... porque minha postura, meu cabelo, porque eu me comporto assim, porque eu falo desse jeito, e porque eu preciso ter filhos, e não sei o quê, não sei que lá... e o dinheiro? parece que nunca tá bom. eu não sei, eu só queria... uma palavra de afeto, ouvir por uma vez que ela tá orgulhosa de mim, ou que tá feliz de ver a filha dela feliz, ou que reconhece todo o esforço que eu fiz pra chegar até aqui, mas... ao mesmo tempo eu sei que ela tá certa. que eu não teria chegado até aqui sem ela, que eu devo tudo a ela. e eu entendo... entendo que ela teve de batalhar tanto sozinha e ela me proporcionou tanto. sei que ela tem as questões dela, até mesmo com a minha avó... mas, droga... eu me sinto presa nesse ciclo, e me pergunto se vai ser assim sempre. só queria um pouco de espaço. ❞
yu jian
❝ minha mãe... bem. eu não sei muito bem o que falar sobre ela. nós temos uma relação que é... sem dúvida uma relação. uma relação em que ela me pariu e é minha mãe. eu... eu não sei se ela tá muito feliz com o fato, ou se ela queria mesmo um filho. na verdade, eu suspeito que não. acho que as pessoas deviam poder admitir isso, sabe? ou só... não ter filhos quando não querem de verdade. enfim. é complicado. acho que ela também não tá muito contente que eu não quero mais me envolver com o hotel e tudo, mesmo que eu ajude financeiramente... enfim. a gente não se fala tanto assim é a verdade. a gente pode mudar de assunto? ❞
mile
❝ minha mãe... olha, sinceramente, não tem muito que falar da minha mãe. ela colocou os filhos no mundo. ela deve ser uma ótima mãe... pros meus irmãos. pelo menos pro meu irmão mais velho, que é o filho que deu certo, e nenhum de nós vai se comparar a ele. nunca. se bem que minha phi diz que sente que mamãe gosta mais de se gabar dela do que... bom, dela de verdade. mas vai ver as coisas pioraram pra cima dela quando ela decidiu comprar briga com a senhora e ficar do meu lado. enfim, eu não sei, porque eu sempre fui a ovelha negra da família, ok? eu não sou excepcional, não fui pra nenhuma universidade top 10 da minha área, tenho um filho sem mãe e ainda deixei os colegas dela acreditarem que sou 'viado' e que 'tava criando meu filho com outro homem. o que eu estava mesmo. ela deve agir como se eu estivesse morto pra ela... eu espero que sim, seria melhor assim. não é como se ela estivesse ali pra me apoiar e me criar direito quando eu era criança. e ela definitivamente não está aqui agora pra apoiar e criar o neto, então. sinto muito, mas é assim que me sinto, e quem paga minhas contas que me julgue. ❞

Michelle Yeoh is a mythological goddess in the new Disney+ series American Born Chinese. Based on the genre-hopping graphic novel by Gene Luen Yang, Disney unveiled a featurette of the new series during the D23 Expo.
“It’s a lot of fun, it’s a log of magic, it’s a lot of badass action,” Yeoh says in the clip which you can view in the video above. Yeoh adds later on, “It is a magical ride and that’s what Disney+ is all about.”
American Born Chinese tells the story of Jin Wang (Ben Wang), an average teenager juggling his high school social life with his home life. When he meets a new student on the first day of the school year, even more worlds collide as Jin is unwittingly entangled in a battle of Chinese mythological gods.
Joining Wang are Yeo Yann Yann as Christine Wang, Chin Han as Simon Wang, Ke Huy Quan as Freddy Wong, Jimmy Liu as Wei-Chen, Sydney Taylor as Amelia with Daniel Wu as Sun Wukong “The Monkey King” and Yeoh as Guanyin.
Kelvin Yu (Bob’s Burgers) serves as executive producer and showrunner. Destin Daniel Cretton (Marvel’s Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings) is set to direct and serves as executive producer, alongside Melvin Mar and Jake Kasdan (Doogie Kamealoha, M.D.), Erin O’Malley (Doogie Kamealoha, M.D.), Asher Goldstein (Short Term 12) and Gene Luen Yang. The Disney Branded Television series is produced by 20th Television, part of Disney Television Studios.
Guest directors for the show include Peng Zhang (Episode 4) and Lucy Liu (Episode 6).
American Born Chinese is expected to be released on Disney+ in 2023.

The Other Stevens: Chapter 1
Tumblr media
Main Master List The Other Stevens Master List
Warnings: age gap relationship, drinking, language, sexual passes, sexual innuendos, mention of masturbation
Word Count: 1.6k
-----------
The first time you met Gordo Stevens was at a pool party. You were 17 and had just moved to Houston attending Seabrook High where you met Danny who had immediately invited you over, and you were quick to accept.
Every weekend you, Kelly, Danny and Jimmy would hang out at the pool until Gordo would eventually stumble out of his room or onto the driveway, drunk as a skunk, and killing the mood. You weren’t an idiot, however, you know about him and his ex wife and despite him being “damaged goods” you found Gordon Stevens to be insanely attractive, attractive enough to be the sole object of your attention.
And so it began, your obsession. You’ve read every single news article, seen every public video footage, seen every photo of him and it was never enough to satisfy you. 
By the time you were 19, you knew he saw you, and not in the traditional “you’re right in front of me” aspect but in the sensual aspect. He started to take notice of your smooth sunkissed skin, your long glossy hair and your plump, luscious lips - always shining with a strawberry lip gloss he’s seen you use. He’s also started to take notice of your long, toned legs and your perfect perky breasts. He also noticed your radiant smile whenever he was around and the way your body always angles toward him no matter where you were sitting. But, Gordo Stevens isn’t naive. He knows that your attraction for him is all in his head and that a girl as gorgeous and young as you would never go for a lumpy, middle aged has been. He’s wrong. Because what he doesn’t know is that everytime you come over, you’re always wearing a pure, white lingerie set underneath your clothes, hoping that one day he’ll finally take a hint and have you as his, but for now, lonely nights and lingering glances will have to do.
It’s early springtime in 1983 and the sun beats down on you. Despite wearing next to nothing, the sun still warms your skin up. Sitting up on the lounge chair, you look over to your friends, pushing your sunglasses up into your hair. “Hey guys, Imma head inside for a drink. Can I get you anything?” Danny looks at you from his spot next to you and offers you a toothy smile and you resist the urge to roll your eyes at his flirtatious nature.
“I’m good, thanks though. What about you guys?” Kelly and Jimmy shake their heads in denial and wave their drinks in the air before Danny turns back to you. “Dad should have some Buds somewhere in the fridge,” he mentions as you mumble a ‘thanks’ and make your way over to the patio door, shimmying down your bathing suit top to expose more cleavage than necessary. Stepping into the house you let a small moan slip from your lips when you feel the cool AC hit your skin.
“Hot out there?” His voice shocks you as your head whips to the kitchen where Gordo stands, hand in a jar of cheeseballs. You smile at him, causing him to shift awkwardly.
“Oh, hi Mr. Stevens. Didn’t see you there,” you make your way into the kitchen as he subconsciously backs up against the fridge and sucks in his gut. You stop in front of him, causing his heart to hammer in his chest. You look behind you and Gordo uses the time to quickly brush the crumbs off his shirt. “But yes, it’s hot out there, which is why I came in for a drink.” Gordo and you remain still for a minute before he realizes he’s standing in the way.
“Shit, sorry,” he scoots out of the way as you brush past him and grab a can of beer out of the fridge. He eyes the can. “Aren’t you a little too young to drink?”
You smirk and open the can, guzzling the amber liquid and letting some drip off your chin and onto your breasts, pretending to not notice the way his eyes follow the drip of the foamy liquid down your chest. Finishing off the can, you use the back of your hand to wipe away the excess as you look down to your breasts with a laugh. “Shit, seems I completely missed my mouth,” even though your words are innocent enough, Gordo can’t stop the gears turning in his head. You reach behind him and grab a glass of water and fill it up in the sink, loving the way his eyes burn holes into your back. “I mean, I did just turn 20. Drinking age is 18, so no, I guess. Guess I’m old enough. Technically an adult,” you shrug your shoulders as you turn around and rest against the counter, casually sipping on your water as he sets down the bag of cheeseballs and coughs, trying to collect his thoughts. Noticing the way he seems to struggle with himself, you let a small smile plaster onto your face. “Oh by the way, when is Sgt Slaughter’s next match? I keep trying to ask Danny but he never seems to remember.”
“You’re interested in wrestling?” Gordo raises his brows in shock as you nod.
“Yeah, I love watching them beat each other up. It’s so staged and hilarious.” Gordo smiles and laughs along with you as he raises his own beer in agreement.
“It is, but the next match is Tuesday. Do you-”
“Jeez (Y/N), what’s taking so long?” Danny crashes through the patio door, causing you and Gordo to jump. You smile at your friend. 
“I was just asking your dad when the next wrestling match was since you can never remember,” you tease the elder Stevens kid as he rolls his eyes and pushes past his dad only to grab a couple of more beers. You don’t miss the way Gordo kinda just shuffles to the side. “Danny! Use your manners. That was rude,” you scold him and Gordo’s lips twitch upward into a smile as Danny rolls his eyes. 
“Ok well, wrestling is stupid and you’re missing all of the fun. Come o-” he eyes the living room for a second and pinches the bridge of his nose. “When’s Sheila coming over?” You and Gordo look over to the living room and Gordo blushes, embarrassed about the mess. He immediately goes over and picks up a couple of cans, trying to tidy it up and you move to join him but Danny grabs your arm and drags you with him. “No, come on, he can clean it up himself.”
“Daniel. That’s your father, why the hell are you talking to him like that?” You jerk your arm away from Danny as he searches your face for any signs that you’re joking but when he finds none he scoffs. “I’m gonna help your dad. I’ll be out in 10, ok?” He nods his head and opens a beer.
“You’re too nice for your own good. You’re gonna miss the fun,” he calls out before exiting the house, leaving you and Gordo alone. Walking over to him, you help pick up various cans and papers and Gordo huffs.
“I don’t know what the hell happened to him. Ever since he turned 15 he’s been a pain in my side,” Gordo comments, throwing away trash while you smile at him in concern.
“Yeah, he can be a jerk sometimes. But that wasn’t ok. My dad would have spanked me. Hard,” you joke but Gordo’s thoughts run dirty. You take notice of his blank stare. “Mr. Stevens? Are you okay?”
“Yeah,” he snaps out of his trance and struggles to maintain eye contact with you, especially with your breasts pouring out of your top. “Thanks for helping me. I have a cleaner but she’s been out sick.” You wave him off and stand to your full height before stretching, letting your top ride up over the bottom of your breasts causing Gordo’s eyes to trail down your stomach, as his thoughts run wild. His dick twitches in his pants. He needs to get out of there and as soon as possible because if he doesn’t, well, he doesn’t know what he will do. “You should probably get back out there, don’t want Danny throwing a fit again.” He laughs and you smile, fixing your bathing suit top a little. 
“Yeah, I probably should. It was nice talking to you Mr. Stevens.” 
“It was nice talking to you too,” you wave him a goodbye as you head back out to his pool, stealing a beer from Danny and plopping down next to Kelly to discuss whatever girls discuss. Gordo doesn’t focus on it too much, not when his cock is aching in his pants. 
Scurrying away to his room, he quickly locks the door and unbuckles his pants, shoving his hand in to massage his member, he allows a moan to escape his lips. He knows it’s wrong and he shouldn’t be touching himself to the thought of you, but he can’t help it. He can’t help the way the beer falls onto your breasts, or when you lean over, you expose everything to him, or the way your breasts are too big for the top. He realizes that none of it’s his fault as he pictures your hand working him instead of himself. If anything, it’s your fault for being so pure, but so dirty and it drives him insane.

Yunan: Now remember, Master Marcy, there is no I in team! You know what I mean?
Marcy: You mean we should sublimate our individuality for the good of our combined effort?
Yunan: Wut? No no I mean there’s no letter I in the word Team. Never a wrong time for a spelling lesson, Marcy.
