this hasn’t left my mind since

had the seminar for this module today and honestly i think it’s my favourite class this year i wish i had him for portuguese language too
my teacher for the cultures and societies of the portuguese speaking world module i’m doing is far too humble he’s a fantastic teacher/lecturer, i could listen to him for hours, but he’s always like “you’re probably fed up of me talking at you now” NO FERNANDO WE LOVE YOU
#he spoke more portuguese today as well#cos we’d said we’d like it if there were parts in portuguese#so like there was a short text extract in portuguese and he read it out#and i love portuguese portuguese i miss being able to hear it as often😭#he’s from coimbra and my portuguese language teacher last year was from lisbon so different but both portuguese#but my teacher this year is from rio#and it’s not that i dislike the accent#i went to rio earlier this year and actually really liked hearing it!#but the way the teacher herself talks is not as nice as fernando😭#studyblr#langblr

my take on Edward and Lydia. The graphic novels pulling me back a little wont lie …
#taz balance#lydia edward taz#edward taz#lydia taz#whatever their tag is#idk about the accent colors but the skin tone hair is just always how i imagined them#i love the adaptation but theres a few choices i dislike like wonderland hvaing a clown theme instead of the gameshow feel#i like me a circus but the tv host personas just worked so much better for them also SORRY I hate the green skin so bad#i apologise to the green elf fans i cant stand it#also i have a vague memory of griffin saying they were dark elves that i probably made up but its just how ive always imagined them#also very minor nitpick wish the arc in the novel couldve had one more round so taako got to lose his beauty#its a minor nitpick just cause in the grand scheme of things its not very important and its brought up once#but that conversation with kravitz is so dear to me#tis whatever tho#is it obvious i like using tumblr tags a lot

Ragablaga I'ma be that guy (maybe)
Char ask game cause I'm in a mood and dirty bastard man Graves
1.2.3.4.12.20.25
No pressure 🙏
LET'S GOOOOO oh I am so happy you sent so many questions for Graves !!! He's my wife <3
1. Why do you like or dislike this character?
I like how much of a high energy yapper he is. I think he's just a REALLY fun character overall, great voice acting, great character arc, funny banters and idk I'm just obsessed with him. I don't really dislike anything about him, he's an asshole and I like that for him :3c
2. Favorite canon thing about this character?
I love a morally ambiguous asshole and he sure is one <3 His betrayal makes him so interesting to me. There's a nice little theme of him betraying the 141 while in the end staying truly loyal to Shepherd, while he himself inspires loyalty to his Shadows.
3. Least favorite canon thing about this character?
I love his rivalry with Soap and Ghost post betrayal but that fucker was getting along so well with them, especially Soap. Could have had a great bromance Phil.
4. If you could put this character in any other media, be it a book, a movie, anything, what would you put them in?
Just a general fantasy AU with him is really fun. Him being a warrior at the head of a group of mercenaries, idk, I like the vibe, and I like to think about it when I ship him with my OC.
12. What's a headcanon you have for this character?
I hc that he came from a wealthy but very religious family who did not like how flamboyant he was growing up. He pretty much left home as soon as he possibly could and joined the army right away so he could get away and prove to them and himself that he was stronger than they thought. He got popular with his fellow soldiers quickly because of his humor and cheery attitude (and huh, other reasons :3c). When both of his parents died, he inherited the family fortune and that's what he used to create Shadow Company.
20. Which other character is the ideal best friend for this character, the amount of screentime they share doesn't matter?
Soap alas
25. What was your first impression of this character? How about now?
Hated his gut LMAOOOO. Hated his betrayal, hated his attitude, everything. Then I started playing a lot of warzone, specifically plunder, and getting him as the announcer and seeing the cutscene with him over and over again, I started commenting on how fruity he was and how he has a nice ass and stuff and my friend was the unwilling witness of me turning from "hate his guts" to "kind of like him" to "fully fucking obsessed." Then I replayed the game and I was fully sold.
Now he's probably my favorite character in the CoD games, I'm fully invested in my ship between him and my OC and I'm just having a silly little time <3
Have a little screenshot I took and edited
Send me a Character + questions from this ask game
#cod#nekro yapping#THANK YOUUUU THANK YOU#Always happy to talk about him#to be fair he has a texan accent so I was doomed from the start#I love when I start by disliking a character only to end up obsessed with them#the best kind of character obsession#<3#oh also for the longest time he wasn't available to buy in game and I was losing it#until like last month or something#I was so happy#capitalism got me good#phillip graves

My great 1899 regret (aside, of course, from the obvious) is that we never had Welsh language scenes between Daniel and Elliot.
Aneurin Barnard and Fflyn Edwards are, as far as I know, the only cast members never to speak their first language in their roles. It is still relatively unusual to hear Welsh accents in British media; I don’t recall ever hearing a Welsh accent in non-British media up until 1899. It would have been still more refreshing to hear Welsh being spoken in a non-British production.
And besides (though this is re. The Crown):
#1899 netflix#x.#one of my pet peeves with british media is that welsh accents are often coded as comedic#(this is the main reason I personally disliked pride 2014 - comedic welsh accents affected by better known english actors#rather than take wales seriously which should have been essential to the story being dramatised)#the british media prejudice against regional accents is... being eroded somewhat but certainly hasn't vanished

During one of last week's streams, Rubius played Vegetta's livestream on the TV behind him while streaming. He switched to something else after a while and missed a message Vegetta had for him, so a few days ago he rewatched the VOD to see what Vegetta (and Leonarda) said.
Rubius has been taking a break from QSMP for almost a month now after receiving a lot of harassment from toxic shippers and folks who were worried his Angel / Devil character might hurt the Eggs (despite the fact that he never tried to harm them and he's actually the one who gave JuanaFlippa her gun).
He jokes about the situation occasionally, and in this clip phrased it as "I like the Eggs, I just don't like the fans of the Eggs." I really hope he comes back soon :(
#Rubius#ElRubius#Vegetta777#QSMP#Leonarda#Vegetta#Translated#Subtitles#Bro I miss Rubius so frickin much dude#The translations are veeeeeery approximate#because A) bruh that accent kills me#and B) Vegetta talks so fast as it is and Rubius was playing his audio on 2x speed#like do you WANT me to die#anyways I frickin miss them so much#I wanna see Rubius hanging out with Leo and the Eggs and everyone else#but I respect his decision to wait til the event is over#[skull emoji]#Leonard@#Anyways I'm glad his bad experience with some of the fans hasn't ruined his opinion of the Eggs entirely#Though I'm sure there's nothing that could make him dislike Leonarda#she's Vegetta's kid after all <3

"Arya" Wedding Dress
"Dracarys" // 2025 bridal collection, by Kim Kassas Couture [x]
#arya stark#asoiaf#valyrianscrolls#I love several gowns from this collection but I just have to highlight Arya here because it means so much to me to see her included 🥹#considering a lot of people's (incorrect) perception of her#and not just included but front and center right after Dany (who the collection is named after)#see when you're one of the most iconic asoiaf/got characters 😁#Dany Arya Cersei Melisandre Ellaria Myrcella...they ate down with their dresses#I love the corset on Nymeria's too but I dislike the overall cut of the dress#the way it feels like they actually took inspiration from Arya's character too >>>>>>>>>>>>#it's very loose/flowing and unrestrictive around the arms and legs#give it a more modest neckline with pants/tights + boots and I can actually see Arya in an outfit like this#and in green w/ brown accents? this is a /forest lass/ running through the woods wild and free outfit#the necklace being inspired by Dany(?)...dare I say Daenarya wedding gown?#love that they gave the model /needle/ as an accessory too ugh#my only major critique is that some of the dress feel generic rather then specifically inspired by the character they're named after#and that there's not one for Missandei?? especially in a collection named after Dany/called Dracarys? 😒#not to be like that ™ but if Myrcella got one she definitely should have

I've been thinking a lot about art and why it doesn't feel good anymore, and a lot of what I keep coming back to is a) simply not being happy with my style, but b) not feeling comfortable experimenting because I feel like I need things to be """post worthy""" 🙄 so like... it's kind of a vicious cycle lmao so I'm heeding the advice I used to give people trying to overcome perfectionism which was "don't worry about making things that are 'good enough' to post and just post everything."
So... some vague style experimenting 🤷♂️ and also a sketch of Ilya from forever ago that I really liked but kept thinking I would come back and do more with.
#ghost city#maksim girard#ilya kasharin#I forgot Maksim's tattoos AND his little neck ridges in the headshots but oh welllllll#artbyrom#me: my struggles with art are deeply rooted and totally unique to me and I could never hope to explain them to anyone else#-describes two of the most common struggles for artists on social media ever-#I'm still happy with my general approach to lineart and the flat colors with minimal accent shading#and I even really like the thing I've done a couple times now of selectively coloring the lineart#so the issue I'm having is with like... the fundamental base of the art 😬#so many of the artists I really admire have very minimalist highly stylized ways of drawing people and I want so badly to pursue that#I never really wanted my art to have this more semi-realistic look to it :| but I'm like...#I don't feel confident in my ability to portray a specific face unless I detail it to hell and back#I need to find a way to get comfortable with forms that are more... representational#fuck.... y'know a lot of it might come down to how outspoken my ex was about how much he disliked simplistic and representational styles#lol. lmao.

English friend of mine confessed to me that she finds the Welsh accent hard to listen to and it really cemented to me how these things are acquired and not innate
I have difficulty not getting annoyed at Californian accents but the Welsh accent? It's so singsongy and rounded to me. I'm rewatching Torchwood and keep replaying clips because of my linguistics hyperfixation. the Welsh phoneme trapezoid is making me so inexplicably happy rn
#torchwood#welsh accent#tw mentions of california /joking#i just dislike the california accent specifically when people ham it up for tv#the smoothed dipthongs just fuck with my brain and auditory comprehension#ily california don't worry

I am also pleased that the rest of Neverra DO NOT has the weird fake accent of Cassandra. Personally i always felt that Cassandra voice actor sound like she is struggling to be able to act while using that absurd fake accent
#playing dragon age veilguard#i realky dislike put on accents by first english language speaker#they useally sound so unnatural!#not when they use an accent from an other english speakibg region#but badly faking that english is ones second language#it useally is just no no#you want that hire someone who second language is english#and who first language is the correct language for the accent#ofcourse in cassandra case the accent is entireally made up and just no no no

pacing back and forth while resisting the urge to correct people on their understanding of british accents. how are people believing that the same accent that drops their hs and ts also overpronounces their every consonant. are you truly unaware that there is more than 1 accent. how is your understanding of how pronunciation works so logically flawed
#dislike when usamericans make fun of my accent. have you heard yourselves#slash annoyed rant slash i saw a post that made me annoyed slash truly most people are chill#slash putting this in the queue

your voice and your accent just make me squirm and wriggle, they are so lovely and hot
God 😭💕 you guys have been so nice on anon lately
This is such a huge compliment - as I've said about a billion times (and should probably stop, because it's boring lol) my voice is something I'm either insecure about or pretty neutral towards, so to know it makes you squirm?? Wonderful. All I could ever ask for. Glad to be of service 😤
#i'm glad you like my accent also ❤️#growing up i used to dislike having a northern accent but i can now say i'm really content with it#shout out to the other 12 or so sneeze fetishists from Greater Manchester lmao

i kinda like brackenfur, he's fine, but i find the sheer amount of "luigi wins by doing absolutely nothing" fandom he's accrued downright ridiculous at this point. he's the most inoffensive warrior cat but he's also the most "there's fucking nothing there" warrior cat. he doesn't overstay his welcome but it's because he only has like 3 vaguely memorable scenes or relationships total in all 6 and a half arcs he's been around for. you could replace him with a rock and basically nothing would change. where is the bar.
#60% of my endearment towards him comes from 14 y/o me arbitrarily deciding to imagine all his lines in an irish accent while reading#and the other 40% is headcanons about his relationships with other characters around him#ive seen a lot of criticism/discussion about the extreme popularity of bland male characters lately and it's all very well founded#but i cant bring myself to dislike brackenfur. but i cant bring myself to ever love him either#he is like a somewhat pleasant but utterly uninteresting coworker or something to me

this can be because you liked all the starters a lot, or wasnt into any of them for a gen, or whatever other reason.
if you get multiple games in a gen/replay games and choose different starters for each game/playthrough, then you can take into consideration if you had any difficulty deciding who youd have as a starter on your first playthrough.
#pokemon#starters#for me the hardest was gen 7. i just loved all 3 of the starters so much!!! i had such a hard time picking which to go with#eventually through ive used all of them in different games- litten in moon. popplio in ultra sun. rowlet in legends arceus#ive never had such a hard time picking a starter in any other region. even in my fave one: sinnoh!#i dont dislike any starters but theres def been ones ive been way more into than others#and so most gens have a clear winner for me#but alola man. poppin out all the incredible starters#gen 8 may have been like. second hardest? but not in any comparable way#like i wasnt spending a lot of time being like oh man WHO am i gonna choose! how could i possibly make a choice!#but i just wasnt too crazy about any of them? so it was kinda the opposite of gen 7#most gens usually have 1 pokemon thats a clear winner for me but none were standing out much in gen 8#now i do lean towards sobble tho since thats who i had decided to go with. i like the sniper theme that inteleon has!#and plus inteleon has a GREAT shiny. love the pink accents so much. also trans colored#also kinda funny that i picked chimchar when i first played gen 4 but now piplup is my fave. got hit by that dawn kin
