Cool Stuff I Saw: January 2023
New year new me (?)
Health
- Girls hate periods but are afraid of not having them DX (Link)
Chinese culture
- I learned about the existence of 姑婆屋, houses where unmarried women lived together. There's a short video on this website that takes a look inside the houses. (Link)
Korean culture
- I was looking up Pocheon/Pochun, since that was where Dream went for NCT Life: Dream in Wonderland. (Link)
Indonesian culture
- Apparently "gemes" is the word for cute aggression in Indonesian, referring to wanting to bite something because it's so cute. (Link)
Art
- Livia Tsang is a tattoo artist with a cool style. (Link)
Literature
- I recently learned about the genre of transgressive fiction. (Link)
Fashion
- There's this bag brand called Doughnut that has cute bags :3 (Link)
Hobbies
- I know how to solve a Rubik's cube but once in a while I'll randomly forget the steps and need a guide. But I need this specific guide because this is the way I do my solving. (Link)
Dolls
- There's a new line of fashion dolls called ILY 4ever. The dolls themselves are cute. I love that the dolls are different ethnicities and that they're not the same ethnicity as the princess they're inspired by. And I also love that there are fashion packs!! Unfortunately I don't support Disney these days, and I also hear that the articulation isn't the best (dolls can't sit down properly) and also that quality varies. (Link)
- I love doll camper cars :3 When I was a kid, I had a Kelly car wiht a wagon in the back, that came with Kelly, Tommy, a dog and a cat. This playset reminded me a little of it. (Link)
- Kind of getting into Lalaloopsy. Too bad fashion packs aren't really sold anymore because they were cute and really worked with the colourful theme of the dolls. (Link)
- I found a Spanish doll website called Dolls and Dolls that has some Lalaloopsy stuff, but mostly sells baby dolls and doll accessories. I don't know if they ship to my country though. (Link)
- Learned about this doll called Monst Dolls. I can't really find much about them though. (Link)
Fandom

Chinese entertainment
- This song by Leslie Cheung is the theme song of A Better Tomorrow...quite iconic. (Link)
