I actually came and sat in my office after getting home and have all my japanese study stuff here but I'm still doomscrolling tiktok 😩😩😩

Someone give me some motivation?

Doing a JLPT N1 workbook -- not because I have any plans of taking the exam, I just got worried about forgetting all the Japanese I know -- and of course they'd do this thing where the subchapter introducing particular phrases gives rather typical, predictable examples of their use, but the general comprehension check test has examples where the phrases are used in a way that's just. Weird. >:/

love piracy. its so sexy. my linguistics class wanted me to pay $100 for a textbook, so i pirated the epub. my japanese class wanted me to pick up a couple of textbooks, but I already owned them for years. So I pirated the pdfs anyway just because I can. destroy capitalist academia. pirate everything.

New video up on my YouTube channel about the Artist of Life Workbook — after doing it 5 years in a row and knowing I likely won’t be purchasing it a sixth time, I decided to review it and share my experience.

I talk about what the artist of life workbook is, the pros and cons of it, and some solutions I have and what you can do if you’ve already purchased it or are considering it.

I also intended to do a vlog of setting up my 2024 edition but decided to combine them in one video, so there’s that in there as well for those who like journaling vlogs. 😊✨

It’s very detailed and thorough, so get comfy with a warm drink and a snack while you watch it and feel free to leave your thoughts in the comment section — I’d love to know what your experiences have been with this book and if you agree with my suggested solution.

Happy Sunday everyone! 💕

I think it's an interesting choice that they gave her those red shoes that stand out so loudly against the rest of her outfit. To me it could read as a bit of a Dorothy from Wizard of Oz thing, which might inform her character somewhat. A friendly rural girl that easily makes friends with different people without judgement, and is well suited for an adventure.

(It would also be symbolically fitting HoD's queer-coding, bc Dorothy is one of the original Queer Icons, and "Friends of Dorothy" specifically was a code phrase to refer to queer people).

But also, it honestly looks like she's wearing riding boots. That's not the outfit you would ride a horse in, but those aren't the shoes for light indoor activities either. They're not even particularly feminine for the time period. She's kind of wearing the equivalent of a floral dress with combat boots, so a somewhat tomboyish reading of her character doesn't seem very far-fetched!

Iirc, Lydie also made Juste and Maxim's friendship bracelets, but didn't make one for herself, which is also a potentially interesting insight into how she feels. Especially because that isn't necessarily how Maxim always saw things, if his insecurities were anything to go by. Or even how Juste might have seen things, given the different endings.

She's also younger than Juste and Maxim by a couple years, and the true ending always gave me the impression she's used to mediating arguments between them and breaking up fights, lol. Her sprite directly stands between them with her arms out like she's refereeing velociraptors. Which takes a lot of guts and/or trust to get directly between two heavily armed people who are also a wizard and a ninja respectively. And they listen to her!

An idea that won't leave my head is that Lydie is an excitable tomboy.

Think about it. Lydie, who in appearance is a frilly delicate girl, has two boys as her best friends. Two rough warrior boys, at that. How did she become part of the group? Surely she does more than just sitting demurely as they spar?

I like to think that Lydie is actually kind of reckless and likes to play danerous games. She's the kind of girl that would ruin her skirt climbing up trees or jumping on stones to cross a river. She causes a lot of headaches for her family, who want her to act proper, and this may be why she loves to spend time with her friends, who don't care if she is improper because they just like her as she is. I don't think she is that big of a rebel, because she still looks like someone who takes care of her appearance (the hair alone requires careful styling), so she might play coy with her family and be on her best behavior... until tempted by her besties.

Generally speaking, if I were to write Lydie, I think I'd move away from the "gentle" archetype and make her a ball of energy lol. The kind of person who is constantly fidgeting, bouncing on her feet and clapping her hands because she just can't wait to spend more time with her favorite people in the world!

I could also take this artwork as proof that she likes nature and animals. She doesn't have the innate talents of a witch or a Devil Forgemaster, sadly lol. She just tries her best even if she gets her fingers picked at or bitten.

Also, we know that after Simon's victory, the Belmonts became heroes of the land, and a whole village was built around them. Juste, most likely, didn't grow up shunned for his bloodline. But! He was still born different. Frail, pale, and with strange magic potential. While discrimination due to magic is not as intense at this point in time as it was in centuries past, it's possible Juste was surrounded by rumors, perhaps even doubted as a worthy successor of his grandfather. You know, for that nice family legacy stuff :)

The point is, I think Lydie never cared. Along with Maxim, who gets to experience for himself how strong and driven Juste is, Lydie might have been the first person to not treat Juste like the latest Belmont with all that comes with it, but as a boy worth of befriending. Lydie got to know Juste's various quirks, like his stubborness, or his fastidiousness when it comes to fashion and decor (I bet they joked that she could learn from him lol), and decided he was funny and that's how a friendship started.

Oh, and the wiki suggests that her surname hints at her ethnicity being Transylvanian Saxon or Banat Swabian. I think it's pretty cool and it could influence her in some way.

I need to think of more quirks to give to her. But I really would like to flesh her out a bit because she has potential to be interesting :>

Spy x Family workbook scans - part 1

The Spy x Family workbooks are a series of Japanese books for helping children learn. There are three total as of now: one for English, one for programming, and one for drawing. I wanted to get the books not just because they're good Japanese practice, but because they feature original illustrations of Anya and the other SxF characters in adorable chibi style ❤️ I'll be sharing some scans from each book, starting with the English one.

First off are the character bios. I find it hilarious that the book mentions Yor's job as an assassin...not a word I'd expect to find in a children's book 😅

The book goes through the different letters of the English alphabet along with sample words featuring the SxF characters, like "B" for "Bond" and "A" for "Anya." I didn't scan all 26 letters, but here are some of my favorites!

Both Loid and Damian are having such lavish meals, lol. Also Henderson gets "E" for "elegant" of course.

I love how Bond looks so worried about Yor's cooking 😂

My two favorites of these, "Father" and "Mother" of course~

And two of the weirdest ones, Yuri and a giant gorilla for "G" and Franky fishing an octopus for "O." Kinda random, lol.

Next are some activity pages, like a maze and common phrase practice.

I gotta say that despite this book being aimed at young children who probably aren't hardcore SxF fans, it tries to feature even obscure characters like the Forgers' neighbors, the lady from the tailor shop, and Martha. Kudos to the book authors for trying to be as faithful to the SxF universe as possible!

The book even adapts a couple of already established illustrations, like the below one that's similar to the Boss Coffee collab.

Also this one that's similar to the extra Endo illustration for chapter 36!

And here's a couple more to wrap up this post! Cute family dinner time...

...and domestic Twiyor ❤️ Loid is so determined to fix Penguinman!
