Something fun I noticed about Astarion:
So since I am a huge fucking nerd about voice and accents, I noticed that Astarion has a very unique way of speaking. His pronunciation of certain words (ex: when he says "I am" it sounds like "I ahm") sound very Yorkshire-esque (which is also very interesting to me given the general vicinity of Yorkshire to Birmingham, where Astarion's actor, Neil Newbon, is from).
The inflection of Astarion's voice, though, sounds like your typical posh upper class fop. The combination of the two is very much a dichotomy, just like everything else about Astarion and I just think that's neat
#i love this kind of shit#i wonder if larian did that on purpose or if neil was like 'allow me to sing you the song of my neighbors'#astarion#baldur's gate 3#honestly i'd love to have more variety of accents in media#and i mean all kinds not just english#i mean all different kinds

fuck i need to replay isat because i cant remember anything but um something something siffrin's increasingly concerning comments through the acts on losing his appetite -> getting violently hungry -> having tear induced nightmares about cannibalizing his friends
#food in isat makes me Think all the time. and the hungry. and then the gluttony. and the tugging on the stomach#THERES JUST SO MUCH WITH FOOD AND EATING IN ISAT THAT I NEED TO SLAP TOGETHER. IVE CONNECTED THE DOTS.#theres something About it to me. buit i am STUPUD.#<-hasnt connected shit#snacktime beinging them together and sharing a meal. but its the same over snd over. eating for your favorite food over snd over.#croissants. pineapple. banana. you dresmt you ate your friends whole. etc.#tbh the fact that loop and siffrin are so similarily 'greedy' but loop physically cant eat and siffrin has no choice but to is kind of fun.#maybe no choice isnt the right word but you know???? what i mean ?? you cant make bonnie sad.#in stars and time spoilers#isat spoilers#ofc when i first played i just immediately thought as the thg in your stomach as like when you feel a metaphorical drop in your stomach#st something shocking/upsetting/scary whatever. But. SEE THIS IS WHY I CANT WRITE ANYTHING I DONT KNOW WORDS.#i dont even have s good excuse. english is my only language. sacre bleu.

Two very unfortunate (or hilarious) things about the german version of the murderbot diaries is that not only did they manage to translate the title All Systems Red as Systemausfall (eng. system failure) when one future installation turned out to be named System Collapse, they also managed to turn Rogue Protocol into Exit Szenario (no need to translate) right before Exit Strategy came out.
#I only read parts of the german translation but some digging through obscure scifi forums#seems to confirm what I stumbled across on wikipedia#also ART is translated as Fifo? Really?#it stands for fieses Forschungsschiff (eng. mean research ship)#I am glad I read the english version but damn I’m curious#apart from the fact that they could have translated Murderbot simply as Mörderbot but went with Killerbot#I don’t mind#comparing translations of stuff is my hobby and a main motivation to learn languages actually#overall I think the translation does an okay job- especially considering pronouns#they handled those well considering german is kind of a very gendered language in that regard#but Chefmodul? That just makes me think of a bot in a kitchen instead of the warranted existential dread#the murderbot diaries#tmd#murderbot#all systems red#rogue protocol#system collapse#exit strategy

our flag means death S2E3: the innkeeper
#our flag means death#ofmd spoilers#ofmd s2 spoilers#shrimp gifs#it was just a very pretty scene i think#i'm laughing because i played around with curves -- as you do -- but then i had to manually bring the brightness down and make everything#more blue again because it's just better that way lol#god i'm having... so many little marbles bouncing around my head like#this post is already tagged with all the spoiler tags i think i can talk in here#the way it started i had No Inkling At All that this would be this kind of setting. so i didn't pay attention to the surroundings or all th#stuff. hell i could barely hear what they're saying because all my fancy schmancy english skills fall apart in the face of your normal soun#mixing. I MISSED THAT IZ AND ED SAID “LOVE” LIKE HELLO#but. but anyway. but. but once it was revealed that This Is All In Ed's Head. that hornigold is ed and everything is ed. man. god.#it's cold and wet and dark (ed likes warmth). ed was washed up on the shore with his face full of sand but THEN he got rescued by someone#who he hated and associated with all the pain and violence AND who then force-fed him soup so he could get better. who had pretty pieces of#glass hanging from his tent (there's no sun but the decoration itself is a promise of a pretty sighs when the rays of the sun hit#just right--) AND you can't forget the sandals. and the play-acting and aoughhhh EEEDDDDDDDD god he's so good HE'S SO GOOD#i dont think i should touch the delightful revenge scenes because they're dark as fuck and idk if the files i have are hq enough#to survive the becurvening. BUT. ed my love!!! i hope this is not where your insanities end

They really do lean in to Ethan being the smarter one the longer the series goes on, don't they? To be fair, he always was *smarter* but Benny at least used to *kinda* try
#mbav#not that its a bad thing#i mean#they dont make benny dumber#hes just a slacker#we know hes good at computer stuff and math#but not english and ethan is better with wires and hardware#which is probably why benny immediately electrocuted himself in the blood drive ep when#he tried to hotwire that car#which maybe he learned his lesson there and thats why ethan does all the wires from then on#see? it all makes sense!#ethan and sarah never let benny live doorus openus down so he just lets ethan handle that kind of thing#anyway what was i saying?#benny doesnt get dumber like some other characters do which is good#hes just kinda hands off#why do it when he knows ethan will#which DOES feel in character for him#when he realised its easier to just let ethan do the hard lifting he did#which is better for the whole group#lets not roast benny about this its kinda a good call#he can stick to claiming jane austin books have aliens in them

Gael García Bernal in Me estás matando, Susana (2016, dir. Roberto Sneider)
(these gifs also feature Verónica Echegui)
Gifs are all 540px wide so you can click to see larger.
[other gael filmography gifsets]
#gael garcía bernal#me estás matando susana#ggb filmography gifs#gael garcia bernal#there's more nuance to this film than you might think from the trailer#can't find the interview now but roberto sneider said he needed to come up with a way to still have the audience kind of root for eligio#and understand why susana hadn't just left him years ago#in spite of what an asshole he is at the start of the film#and realised that casting gael was the trick that made that work#i appreciate he looks sad in all of these but it is a comedy i promise just a comedy in which he's sad a lot#it's interesting to see a mexican view of the usa captured here too#btw you would not believe the effort i had to go to to get english subtitles of this#or even spanish subtitles which would have been fine#but apparently there are no deaf people in spain because spanish region 2 dvd has no subtitles at all other than for the english sections#grrr#(and the only english-language srt file i could find was terrible)#i mean it had a us cinema release the official subtitles must exist somewhere#you're killing me susana

#leave more in the tags/comments/rbs !! there are some creative workarounds out there#the reason i like the 빛 more than 쉿 is because 쉿 is always a clear censor like guys !!! no they didn’t say shit!! they said shh!#but when jennie and hwasa used 빛 it wasn’t as much of a work around as it was a fun dual meaning#so i think it’s more creative#i’ll explain all of these here in case someone doesn’t understand:#i don’t give a what replaces “fuck” with “what”#”쉿“ pronounce shwt or shwit in korean means “shhh” but it sounds like the word “shit” in english#cause we don’t give a fu…is from skz topline and it’s just a fade out of the word fuck#“if you seek it why owe you” is from xdinary heroes’ song freakin bad and it sounds like “F-U-C-K-Y-O-U”#kind of like britney spears’ “all of the boys and all of the girls are begging to if you seek amy” (f-u-c-k me)#“Our dish here is so bussin’” is from skz super bowl and it sounds like “Our shit so bussin” when they perform it#(prolly cause han actually says shit when they perform it lol but it’s fun)#빛means light or shining in korean and it can sound like “bitch” in english especially if it’s 빛이#jennie uses it in solo to mean “i’m a shining solo” but it sounds like “bitch i���m a solo”#hwasa uses it in im a b to say “i’m a bitch” but it also means she’ll keep shining as herself and an idol#in cheese by skz there’s a part where they list fingers to put down (index finger middle finger etc) and it forms a thumbs up sign#however if u listen to the ad libs and include them in your finger movements it forms a middle finger sign instead#kpop#kpop polls#polls#stray kids#skz#xdinary heroes#xdh#jennie kim#blackpink#bp#hwasa#mamamoo

call tgirl dommes without bottom dysphoria the tower of Bable the way their presence makes my speech incomprehensible and the way that when fully erected they can show me god
call tgirl dommes with bottom dysphoria the tower of Babel the way their presence makes my speech incomprehensible and the way that a pillar is to be removed by a most divine act because it should never have existed and it's removal shall bring great relief to a being who rightfully rules over me
call post-op tgirl dommes the tower of Babel the way their presence makes my speech incomprehensible and the way that religious folk insist they defy god whilst in reality their existence is testament to humanities ability to alter this unfair world to bring joy and peace to those who are part of it
#this was originally meant to just be a joke about getting flustered near trans dommes but then the comedy demons conjoured forth all of that#i don't even remember writing half of it#the English teachers don't want you to know this but anything is like anything if you look closely#like fuck it uhhh bees and bread#yeah those are suitably random#well i guess they both warm my heart#they both have a crunchy exterior and a soft squishy interior#they can both be used to feed people through various means#what else uhhhhh#nah i can't think of anything fuck it#ants and transistors?#both work together as a small part of a greater whole to achieve things they could not individually comprehend#both are regularly kept in plastic boxes in large numbers for humans entertainment#someone has probably figured out how to run doom on ants it's the kind of insane thing someone would do#anyway yeah you get the point#similarities are wherever you want them because almost every quality something can have in this world is a concept made up by us that#can be bent and shifted however we like because they never really existed anyway

being this fluent in english kind of fucked me up because now i have this huge standard i set for myself when it comes to languages that im never gonna achieve again and it makes me feel disheartened and intimidated about start learning a new one
#like im probably never gonna achieve this level of fluency in any other language and thats ok#english is extremely over abundant onlyne theres whole WEBSITED (like this one) with millions of people where over 90% of users post#exclusively in english#all the most famous tv shows and songs and books and youtubers etc are in english#obviously other languages also have all those things but theyre not gonna be as easy to just come by#and youre not gonna be swimming in it. they arent gonna be the norm like english is#so yeah ill probably never gonna be as fluent in any other languages and i need to let that expectation go or ill just be scared forever and#never learn anything else#anyways. i kinda want to start officially learning spanish#as a brazilian thats kind of just whatever like its not hard or Different™ by any means but its gonna be more useful in my day to day life#than something like idk french of mandarin (which i would also like to learn)

#okay venting in the tags you are very welcome to ignore or not respond to it i just need to yell somewhere#i always thought id be an art therapist because well i care about people and want to help them and love art#but everyday i wake up feeling like a fraud and an imposter so like. should i really be doing all that when im not entirely#certain i cpuld handle it??? like i know i haven't gotten the meaty bit of the education towards that yet but like#university costs a disgusting amount of money here and if i pick the wronf thing im likely doomed forever thanks to awful government#i know things could get better like they did after thatcher but honestly im not putting any bets on it considering how the current labour#party is so like if i fuck up here im basically dead#also can i actually do art uni. like could i cope with that. im deeply unethused with art at the moment and honestly will i evwr be#idk#it was jusr a thing i always did but education around it is fucking soul sucking#also the emotional weight of hearing and solving people's problems as a therapist. i would consider myself quite empathetic for the most#part i feel other people's pain quite strongly and obviously as a therapist id be feeling that quite a bit so could i actually cope with it?#ik therapists have therapists but still#i mean im doing work experience at an occupational therapy place so ill just be extra inquisitive about it all to make sure im going#the way i wanna#I'll be fine by the end of a levels ill probably understand what i want in life#if not then gap year to work it out#should probably look at unis for english language too then#sigh#ucas website i may as well marry you#ill be okay im getting in my head about stuff im actually pretty good at art even if there are things i can improve on (like patience lol)#yeah maybe the voice telling me i suck doesnt know shit and should shut up#yeah#shut it nasty voice you're wrong actually!!! im doing just fine and you're being overly critical#they should make a brain that's your friend and not mush that hides the amalgamation of every bad thing ever in its crevices#crevices shoyild be filled with kindness and love.#sex jokes about that#why the fuck is yahoo mail syncing i dont use you you washed up search engine#bue waffling#vent post

Hey guys I've got a question, for curiosity's sake
In light of relatively current events, I'm curious about something, and I wanna put together a list of plot points in QSMP that have been seemingly dropped off for one reason or another. Part of me wants to theorize where some of them were going, but I'm really bad at thinking of things like this off the top of my head without doing a full rewatch, and god knows I don't have time for that. Another part of me wants to try and see if I can piece together what decisions might've led to those decisions, but I'm not sure I'd put that out there, since as I've said before, I'm not a fan of speculation without proof
For example, I'm talking about stuff like SOFIA, Code-Maxo, Luffy and the Eye Workers, etc. Things like that that were clearly meant to go somewhere, but something behind the scenes sort of dropped the ball, or scheduling things came out of nowhere to blindside the people involved
Again, this is mostly just for curiosity's sake. Thanks in advance!!
#qsmp theory#Kind of#I mean it might be#Who knows where tomorrow might take us#I'm just curious is all#I started putting together a list earlier but then I saw something on the main tag that reminded me of something I forgot#And realized I am not going to be able to remember all of them on my own#Especially since I was mostly watching English POVs#I would love to watch the other languages#But my ADHD will not let me watch something I can't keep up with using just audio#Because that'll take ALL my attention#And the gremlin simply won't have that#qsmp

Just wanted to say thank you for the ottosuba posting you've done lately. The English speaking fandom is absolutely barren with Otto content, let alone ottosuba content. So to have someone as awesome about it as you post via Tumblr posts, fanfic, fanart, etc. on a good(-ish) website like Tumblr is like finding a diamond in the rough. Anyhow, looking forward to any future ottosuba content from you!
(。・ω・。)ノ♡
anon you made my day fr these are very high compliments T^T <3 i appreciate it a lot pfft a part of me is always like "I CANT REVEAL HOW MUCH MY BRAIN IS ROTTING OVER THESE CHARACTERS..." bc i get a little embarassed a little shy bc what if i am posting the same things too much...??? but then i simultaneously go "lol my blog my rules anyway im gonna make a gazillion billion content *clicks post*" which is how all the otto and ottosuba content gets churned out alsdflj. especially bc - like you said - the english speaking fandom is a BARREN DESERT when it comes to otto and ottosuba content T^TT ive been thinking about it lately bc they seem to be a lot more popular in the japanese speaking fandom i think, but theres next to Nothing with the english speaking fandom :o interesting difference there.
but regardless :o yeah i keep making otto and ottosuba content bc i am in Desperate need of it... its a desert and i gotta feed myself too HAH theyve always been interesting to me but in the years ive been into rezero that Interest has skyrocketed bc of all the interesting developments pfft (and also the lack of english fancontent for them HAH). i just think theyre so underrated in the english fandom.... thank you for liking my stuff anon <3 :DD
#ask#also you made me remember that ive been otto(suba) posting in like so many mediums lajdfljsl#i ended up sneaking a bit of meta into these tags oops aljsdfljsf but.#also i just think otto and ottosubas feralness is super interesting and my taste in characters totally isnt predictable (i say this as a p#five shuake fan also. cries.) but also like. people in the english speaking side of the fandom dismiss otto a lot which is interesting to m#like its u know that typical fandom tendency to sometimes only see characters for how they look on the surface. and its also interesting b#ive also been seeing a few people like. almost kind of miss how toxic ottos being in arc 8??? and also ottos general. subaru obsession#things yeah. like why do people miss this stuff??? he literally says his reason for being / existence is to oppose subaru??? what sane#person does that lajdslfjsldfj what sane person is so ride or die theyd rather leave a whole country + their bffs daughter figure to die??#what sane person manipulates all their friends in order to save them??? understandable motive but literally insane lajsdlfjsld#yeah so anyway im super curious on why english vs japanese fandom have different attitudes towards otto and ottosuba HAH#being an emilia otto AND astrea fan is so weird bc people are so kind with the astreas usually and then being an emilia fan means suffering#through all the sexism and then being an otto fan is just going ��YOU GUYS WERE FOOLED BY HIS SOFT BOY AESTHETICS???” and begging people to#remember that he cares about subaru. but that goes for many emilia camp members treatment in fanon.#and also yeah being a fan of almost any character in this fandom is suffering i think alsjdfljsd#granted i was also fooled by the soft boy aesthetics but that was way back when okay. i know now. hes my silly fucked up little guy now HAH

Got really into drawing my ocs as anime bugs
#arts#ocs#I have no idea how else to tag this vn style? chibi? pc98? I mean I guess…#this was brought on by me drawing the part in my huge self indulgent Eisei and Tamara comic where he talks about his favourite childhood#anime for a reeeally long time#she’s not actually from this era of anime more like 2018/19 iirc#well her reboot she was initially from the 70s so maybe I’ll get really into 70s anime for a second#and then I’ve been getting really into trying to play vns from the 80s and 90s like really influential ones but I don’t know how to actually#get the English versions so I just think about it for a realllly long time#I want to play tokimeki memorial… but apparently the snes version isn’t really like the full release#and I can’t figure out how to get the actual English patch to work#and also I was listening to magical cure love shot for a while and wow the Japanese comments were right this is heisei era as fuck#I actually don’t draw a lot or as much as I used to and I do feel sad about that so I’m very glad this got me to draw even if for two days#I want to master all the art styles that I saw when I was a wee baby in the internet#I’ve got anime down#and the flipnote style kind of I just need to get good at emo/scene art

Une petite houle, venue du large, imprimait au canot un léger roulis, et quelque crêtes de lames clapotaient à son avant. (Vingt mille lieues sous les mers, 2e partie, chapitre III)
today in sentences that would have made me weep quietly into my dictionary if i had read them a year ago before jules verne expanded my marine vocabulary by ~1700%.
#do u you know how long it took me to figure out 'lame' has a totally separate sea-related meaning#i was like a slat? a slat of what???????#no it's just one of the three most common words for 'wave'#(the others being vague and flot(s))#(not to mention houle of course. or remous)#(and onde but that's a different kind of wave)#now i see it and i'm like ouais ouais une lame nous tous l'avons vue#french#my posts#hey remember the first time i read a jules verne novel & was going crazy trying to figure out what 'allure' was in a nautical context#i was like i know allure means speed...but he is definitely not using it to mean speed#that's how they get you. all these normal words with normal meanings that have SPECIAL BONUS MEANINGS#as soon as you get on a boat 😩 but jules verne is like. you are going to learn these words if it kills me#and who am i to argue with a guy who really wants to teach me five different words for wave/swell?#i learned all the words for mud and manure because that was important to vicky hugo. it's the least i can do#now i'll tell you where i draw the line is learning all the names of the different species of fish. in french.#he's throwing like multiple paragraphs of run-on sentences per chapter at me that are just listing forms of marine life#i don't even know what these are in english so i'm just letting them wash over me#i've learned the ones that keep showing up over and over but most of them are so specialized they're not even in the dictionary#frenchified scientific latin ass names#very fun to pronounce but yeah i ain't committing these to long-term storage sorry
