Fan art of BibleBuild as Ataru and Lum

I have been busy! A lot more than usual, and unfortunately with Twitter mass imploding in real time, this means that I've been spread out across multiple platforms. I would say that Cohost probably is getting the most mileage out of me so far, and Instagram I really just use to upload pictures of food or *aesthetic* to have an excuse to follow the BL actors and pro wrestling fashion accounts I followed on twitter previously--and uhhhhh ironically twitter is still poppin off right now. Until it isn't anymore, I suppose.

There's lots of projects and such coming up this month. Managed to meet up irl with friends and that was nice. Hotpot good.

Ah, also, the volcano is erupting at home. Wild times we're in for sure.

Over the past year, recently, I've gotten into watching live action BL dramas.

 

Granted, I've watched JP drama adaptations of BL manga before, and watched some JP dramas that tokusatsu/Live 2.5D actors were in, but I've only really gotten into actual dramas from all over the world now. I tend to watch only one long-running series at a time these days (usually whatever season of Sentai or Rider that's on), and I haven't been keeping up with any recent anime (except Tiger&Bunny 2--god, has it really been ELEVEN YEARS since season one?)

If anything, the time I don't spend working, I spend streaming or working on art+art assets for streaming. As streaming often involves gaming, sometimes I can't play as many games as much as I like offstream. I don't mind it, but sometimes I just want to unwind and sort of lose myself in a story without thinking about having to talk about it.

What with work, the stress of the state of goings-on in the world, and everything, I've been turned to BL dramas. Not as a comfort food, or safe thing (I don't like using the words "wholesome" or "comfort" when it comes to consuming media) , but almost as sort of like a vacation to another place. I don't fully understand the fandom sometimes, and I'm not fully committed to following the idol aspects with the actors (okay, maybe I watched all of EarthMix Space AND all of the ZeeNew clips I could find AND all of the promo material for every single Taiwanese drama I've watched and liked), but I'm enjoying my time here right now.

I think as someone who's a longtime boomer ass BL fan, it's been interesting to see how more recent BL dramas from all over the world take elements and trends from BL manga (both old and recent) and evolve from there. At least, as an outsider to the whole actual BL Live Action drama fandom.

Anyway, here's a list of BL dramas I've been watching right now! I'm also gonna add a couple of danmei novels in because uhhhhhhh I can.
