#I think something’s wrong with my keyboard#Or google translate is messed up#Cause everytime I write in a different language I put it through translate to double check I did it right#And keeki#Which I know is Japanese for cake#Has the write symbols#But the translations r off#Idk#its prob fine#2012 tmnt

Listen, I know there are already reasons that Charles has anger issues and is a people pleaser but that doesn’t mean there can’t be more-
In this essay I (as someone with ADHD) will explain why I think Charles ADHD headcanon is so valid. (‘S gonna be a lot so it’s all under the cut.)
Symptom number one: Irrational Anger
Gonna get the more obvious ones out of the way real quick. Now, listen, Charles has every right to be angry, but his tolerance window for anger seems to be pretty low and I’ll bet anything that’s cause he doesn’t like to be angry. So he just refuses to learn how to cope with it.
症状数字二、八方美人 (Symptom number two: People Pleasing)
I know their are multiple factors for why he’s like this but EVERYONE has multiple factors for why they’re like that so LET ME HAVE THIS!!! But yeah Charles lives to help his friends and feels useless/worthless when he can’t do that.
Síntoma número tres: Enmascaramiento (Masking)
Sir “It’s squinting.” Rowland. We’ve seen him pull on a mask and shove down his true emotions SEVERAL times in the show. It happens after the Devlin house when they meet up with Niko, happens on the lighthouse with Crystal, happens when Edwin is trying to confess and Charles mistakes it for Monty.
Symptom Antall Fire: Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (It’s the same in Norwegian I guess??)
He did not like it when Edwin kept secrets from him AT ALL. With both Cat King and Monty. He absolutely felt rejected from knowing more about his bestie/being allowed in to help.
Symptom Number Five: Impulsivity (Ran out of funky languages, sorry.)
“Should I grab it? Should I not grab it? I went with grab it?” *Proceeds to smash it on the ground.*
Symptom Number Six: Stimming
When he twirls his bat or juggles the ball.
Symptom Number Seven: Forgetfulness
“Charles. You have a bag that can hold an infinite number of things.”
Symptom Number Eight: Lack of Filter
This man. THIS MAN. “Oh, yeah. I know we’ve known your for, like, an hour or two but Edwin went to capital H Hell btw.” “Oh my god, haha. This song reminds me of that time my dad busted my Walkman lol.” “Mate me and Crystal literally just snogged.”
#tetris belies it’s wisdom upon thee#DBDA#dead boy detectives#charles rowland#ADHD#idk y I decided 2 go down the list of languages I’ve tried and failed 2 learn#but here we are#do not trust my translations btw#srry if sum of the quote r wrong#it’s all off the top of my head💔💔#sum quotes aren’t quotes at ALL bcz I do NOt remember 😭😭#sum have more reasons than others but shhh#if u have any additions pls PLS lmk#begging on my knees hands folded tears in my eyes#coffee woukd not work on him which is y Crystal only offered 2 get Edwin sum btw#that’s totally what happened#source is trust me

Hellsing 2002 calendar illustration.
Ein wunderliche und erschröckliche Hystori von einem großen Wüttrich genant Dracole wayda Der do so ganz unkristenliche marrter hat angelegt die mensche, als mit spissen als auch die leut zu Tod geslyffen
A wondrous and frightening story about a great berserk called Dracula the voivode who inflicted such unchristian tortures such as with stakes and also dragged people to death
#hellsing#alucard#kouta hirano#translation was found in a comment by u/lazyfoxheart on r/Kurrent#fun fact this is the highest quality version of this image that exists online#i know because i've been looking forever for a version that's clear enough to actually read what hirano wrote under '1443'#but there weren't any so i had to take matters into my own hands#the real image on the back of the guidebook is only 2 inches tall so i had to take this with my smartphone and will my hands not to shake#anyway i'm pretty sure it's supposed to say Eğrigöz (the location vlad was imprisoned) so yeah. thank you hirano very cool#if i might rant for a sec it took me an embarrassingly long time to figure that out because i didn't have the guidebook at first#and in the images i could find online that part was just a blur that looked suspiciously like a person's signature and i was like. who tf#i was thinking matthias corvinus since he issued some political propaganda against vlad iirc but it didn't match his signature on wikipedia#then i thought it might be vlad II dracul's since he probably had to sign an agreement to send his sons over as hostages at some point#but that didnt seem right either so i kept skimming vlad's wiki page#and then i was like goddammit...hirano.....you just misspelled Eğrigöz didn't you.. ....#i maybe should've made a separate post dedicated to this instead of writing a novel in the tags but eh#the hellsing brainrot runs deep#also- i put it in the source link at the bottom of the post but the german inscription is copied off a real woodcut of vlad from 1491#except instead of depicting him as an adult hirano drew him as a child which gives the inscription a very different feel imo#the one final thing that interests me about this is the fact that hirano published this calendar in 2002#which is REALLY early in the series. like this was before volume 5 came out??#i have no idea why he decided to do a massive spoiler drop in a random piece of japan-only merch#sandwiched between a drawing of alucard as john travolta from saturday night fever and integra as a fish no less#it makes me really curious to know what the fan response to this was back then. like did people even know who this was#maybe im just an idiot and everyone back then was like 'ah yes its alucard as a 12 year old. how very informative'

The biggest crime of me not uploading big o gifs here sooner was not posting best girl. (I had a few more of her in it but Roger was there so I’ll save it for a duo post or something lol)

I just finished Equal Rites!! 🥳 and the cinder block that is The Count of Monte Cristo. While I do have books queued up to finish next (Red Side Story & Don Quixote are first), I find my 2024 book list running short... What should I add to it?
feel free to make yr case as to yr choice if u wish, or to state support for multiple! I am nothing if not suggestible...
#The Last Werewolf by Glen Duncan/Declan Gunn is on my list too#but I don't have a copy of that yet so I've left it off#also on the list: Le Cid‚ Les Fourberies de Scapin‚ The Picture of Dorian Gray‚ The Three Musketeers#NO-ONE suggest De Cape et de Crocs. why do u think I'm reading < all those for#yes these options are wild. can u tell I've struggled w finishing books since high school#I actually do have facing translations of the Song of Roland & of Beowulf if that sways anyone#Cyrano de Bergerac is also obviously on this list as I haven't read it cover to cover yet (I'm a fanatical extract & passage girlie)#but it's a play not a novel or epic. so I've left it out#poll#books#ceci je l'ai fait#vignettes de ma vie#Les Misérables#Mort#Picnic at Hanging Rock#the Kalevala#Beowulf#the Song of Roland#Skulduggery Pleasant#also u r allowed to reblog this if u wish to invoke propaganda idm#dw anon who told me abt Life. I'm still trying to source that for my watch list#also Edmond. which is apparently called Cyrano My Beloved in English. which is just awful lol

been getting into toki pona recently. and i'm not great with all the grammar yet. but i am really a big fan of the whole concept. i like rephrasing complex ideas through the most basic of concepts and i love translating idioms into. not idioms. 'when night falls' -- > 'if the sun dies' delights me. its like a puzzle and that's what delights me. i don't think i'd enjoy speaking it casually but reading and translating are super fun. the same kind of entertaining as a jigsaw puzzle. but there's also a level of philosophy involved. with redefining complex feelings. tldr. robot girl with robot brain likes puzzles too much. so nothing new. all of this is to say. i'd like to be acquainted with all the tokiponists out here because y'all seem super cool.
#txt#blogging tag#xenogender#robogirl#toki pona#p.s.#if you're a frequent poster on toki pona tumblr and recently had posts liked by a holographic pfp. that's my main. thanks 4 the posts.#thought of making a proper intro into the community but. i don't wanna be too proper about this. it really is just a casual interest.#besides. i'm struggling with headnouns. because there's so many phrases out there for robot but i don't. like any of them. not so far.#i've thought about like. meli maybe. but i don't wanna come off. gender essentialist. with a language made to de-emphasize gender.#i'm not a person but i am something feminine in presentation. is what i'm trying to get at. but i'm not sure that would come through.#also. tokiponizing is a pain and that's the other half of this process. because my pseudonyms r all based off charas i'm very attached to.#and there's no way to translate without losing the reference and that feels wrong. but leaving the name untranslated also feels wrong. so.#i'm letting people call me whatever they want for now. outsourcing.

OK but what actually DID happen here? why did tyki suddenly imagine and even feel himself dying, being blown/torn apart?? allen didn't actually attack him here. so he says 'was it just the impact of the innocence [activating, ig?], or was it...?'
or was it what??
#I'm just a little confused by that event and afterwards they just go into the actual fight so i can't really figure it out#maybe ill go and look at some fan translations bc the official one is a little off/vague sometimes so that might clear it up#r: dgm

suddenly realizing how many of my hobbies r extremely mentally draining now that I'm sick and can't do any of them
#lucasings#I got sinusitis and feel a lot weaker and dumber than usual. also mildly feverish#so I was like 'ok I guess I'm taking a day off from my usual tasks ! I can just chill and engage in hobbies :)'#but my stupid fucking hobbies r like.#studying/translating japanese which takes a lot from my brain#studying psychology neurology mental health etc. which also takes a lot from my brain#coding. drawing. animating. vtuber rigging (I've been dabbling in it lately. it's so fucking hard)#I DON'T HAVE ANY FUCKING HOBBIES THAT AREN'T ENERGY CONSUMING AS FUCK#WHAT ELSE EVEN IS THERE ??? WHAT THE FUCK DO PEOPLE DO TO PASS THE TIME WHEN THEY ARE SICK#is this why I have to sleep so much every day ???? I'm using too much fucking brainpower ?????#my luck is that I'm on break from college tbh.

i guess i've been doing this for a while but it's worth noting how fascinating it is that, by having accumulated a basic mandarin vocabulary, my brain is now actually able to listen to the mandarin and read the english subs and then piece the puzzle together to get closer to the original meaning. i feel like i'm able to catch much more nuance this way and it makes me feel happy
#. like just now xiao heng said sth like 你真是无心的东西#. and it was translated as 'you are heartless'#. which is not exactly wrong#. but it totally missed the 东西 part. which gives it a bit of a different air imo idk#. it's just crazyyy bc when i first watched cdramas i got exhausted quickly bc i couldn't stop trying to understand the audio while#. simultaneously reading the subs#. like i couldn't turn it off#. but 1) I've gotten so much better at it and 2) re: mandarin i don't even need to turn it off anymore fjfjfjdks#. thanks to learning mandarin by osmosis i guess...#r watches#r watches the double

#Doodles#SCII#Captain Sterling#KUP#I guess lol#He's new! Though I have been tossing around the idea of co-opting the nameless design I made years ago and retroactively making him KUP lol#I thought of this Very Funny joke on the way home and was so excited to implement it and use VUK ZIX - which is not mine btw lol#I'm not entirely sure how to credit it? AFAIK they're not here on tumblr but I'm not sure? Big big credit to eco_mono on LJ!#It's a very cool alphabet! :D There are still some parts I don't understand - like R being a vowel but O being a consonant?#Would that make ''TRO'' an acceptable name by VUX standards? :0 I do like the idea of it being a kind of push-sound I think it's neat :)#But as you can intuit by my not actually spelling his name with a C - there wasn't a C listed in the alphabet and my silly joke crumbled :'D#But when has that stopped me! I can figure it's because C is kind of phonetically extraneous with both S and K as consonants so use K!#Sterling would probably intentionally soften the ''K'' sound so it implies a ''C'' and KUP gets so mad about it lol ♪ ''I can hear that!''#Something something harshness of tone/strength of breath while speaking - subtleties of spoken language since they're so visually different#It's fun to think about ♪#There's also something funny to the difference of ''>o<'' to a human and ''>O<'' to a VUX lol ♪#And then more thoughts about phoneticisms and translation - specifically thinking about VIJ writing the Captain's name for him#I'm still going back and forth on whether Sterling's name would be translated as two or three syllables in VUK ZIX - I kinda like both tbh#Either ''SER LIN'' or ''SET TER LIN'' - the latter with emphasis on the middle syllable and a drop-off on the first#Which would take priority? Matching syllables or the consonant T break? Maybe both for different contexts??#As well as the fact that -ing sounds wouldn't really have precedent being a vowel at the beginning followed by two consonants#So the rounded G sound at the end of his name would be completely skipped over - would they even have a soft palette to constrict??#Ahh <3 It's really fun to think about!! ♫#Anyway he goes back to explain later and KUP smacks him lol#''Do not make a crass joke at the expense of my name >O('' lol
