The weekly chat posts are intended for just that, chatting among each other. What are you currently watching? Reading? What actor/idol are you currently following? What are you looking forward to? Are you busy writing, creating art? Or did you have no time at all for anything, and are bemoaning that fact?

Whatever it is, talk to us about it here. Tell us what you liked or didn't like, and if you want to talk about spoilery things, please hide them under either of these codes:

Not my survey, but I thought I'd share it here since it's on-topic: a researcher from the University of Bristol is looking for participants in an online survey about consuming wuxia media (especially the works of Jin Yong) in English translation.

(It's anonymous, and you don't need to have read or seen any Jin Yong books or adaptations to participate in the survey -- there are also questions about respondents' interest in wuxia more generally, how you tend to consume Chinese media, how much your reading choices are influenced by things like translation quality, prices, formats, illustrations, etc.)

I enjoyed filling it out, and the question about book covers has made me interested in reading a Jin Yong novel I hadn't heard much about before! (Which surprised me, since I feel like I'm normally not very influenced by covers.)
