Random list of a few of my favorite Chinese words so far:
电灯泡 - literally "light bulb," figuratively, an unwanted third wheel
放鸽子 - literally "to place/put a pigeon," figuratively, to stand someone up/no show
死定 - screwed (as in doomed, not as in fucked)
圣诞老人 - Old Man Christmas, Santa Claus
鹅毛大雪 - goose-feather snow, a heavy snow of fluffy flakes
Every single time a word is made "the same but more" by doubling it, or doubling characters in general for emphasis (高高兴兴,长长久久, 安安轻轻,大大小小, 酸酸甜甜,干巴巴,to name a few)
半边天 - literally "half the sky," figuratively womankind
The vast versatility of 蛋 as a way to insult people (坏蛋,笨蛋, 混蛋)
赖床 - laze about in bed
惊喜 - pleasantly surprised
大丈夫 - literally big husband, figuratively a manly man
厉害 - cool, awesome, incredible
干嘛 - why on earth...?
大姨妈 - literally great aunt, figuratively shark week/that time of the month/menstruation
想得美 - in your dreams!
My personal constant ability to confuse 妇女 and 妓女. (Woman and prostitute)
Likewise, my personal constant ability to confuse 瓜子 and 傻瓜. (Melon seeds and fool)
轮椅 - wheelchair
And, of course
饭圈 - fandom!

reblog if you're aromantic and not soft or cute or fluffy. i feel like so many aromantic people feel like they need to make themself 'more human' by forcing these qualities onto themselves, and that's fucking sad. you are human. your aromanticism does not make you less human. you do not have to fucking 'redeem' yourself over being aromantic. your anger and your rage and your unapologetic lovelessness and heartlessness are also human. don't hide them in order to appeal to aphobes.
so yeah, reblog if you're aromantic and angry and intense and sharp around the edges and refuse to play the 'acceptable aro' game. i adore you.

HELLO OCTONAUTS FANDOM
I finished ! ALL of them
HOWEVER. I kinda wanna design similar characters for the Other Gups but I unno where to start! Which is where you sillies come in
Basically ! You can request a Gup for me to spiritify (or also request any content regarding the current ones) and I will come up with a design for em in this state :)
If you request a new Gup it can be ANY of them shown in any canon Octonauts media, this includes the main show, A&B, RoF, CoSA, GBR, and the books !! I just won't be able to make new designs for the main five + Gup F because. Well. They're literally right there
If you instead request any sort of extra content regarding already existing designs, the Gup is your oyster, so to speak !
I already have a thought or two regarding Gup X but yea :3
