ARGENTINA — A MI MANERA

[unforromass]

🎂

[cosmic-navel-gazin]

Eduard Artemyev's rendition of Bach's - Ich ruf zu dir, Herr Jesu Christ BWV 639 that's in Solaris (1972),

I love you,

you fuck me up so bad.

Just a sense of overwhelming of melancholy and beauty and nostalgia that lodges itself inside me and this concoction keeps swirling around in my stomach not unlike the waves of the alien planet itself

and it feels like my body will give way but the explosion never comes and I'm left with this terrible longing.

They just had to use that song for that one Hard to Be a God radio drama during the Kira scenes to further destroy me and then trample on my corpse I guess.

auto blu

Una ciabatta d'una macchina, da aver vergogna andarci. Sganghenata e sfiancata, du fojacci de bandone pe parafanghi ripitturati de nero cor pennello, tutti a onde, a bozze dond'era poi caduta la vernice, che sventolaveno e traballaveno appena se moveva come du foje de broccolo fori da la sporta mezzo vota de la serva: co no sportello che nun voleva uprisse, e na manija che nun ce la faceva a tené chiuso quell'artro: un vetro che nun s'arzava, e 'n fanale sfasciato: sicché puro guercia, era; li fascioni aridotti come scarpe vecchie, con tanti bubboni de fora che pareveno l'ernia anguinale. Ed era stata, illis temporibus! la rispettabile automobbile del Questore di Roma. Caduta a mano alla ghega nell'immediato dopomarcia, e subito sputtanata in proporzione ai tempi, e agli eventi, e all'istruzione de quelli signorini che aveva menato a spasso de carriera, diceva omai per non ambigue note di sé, del proprio stato di servizzio.[...] Così che tutti, ora, in quella macchina, politica o non politica, v'introducevano il capo a contraggenio e uno scarpino peritoso dopo il capo, l'altro stivale ancora a terra, e un occhio suspicante e ispettivo, e narici ad atto del pari: quasi d'un tal vischio ne potessero fumar fuori i vapori, congiuntivamente all'odore, pallori di lèmuri di più d'un morticino de tre mesi, col condonzolo tutto arrotolato a spira, e il testoncello di ciuccio. Cauti, accigliati, inquieti. L'idea che fosse residuata al drappo (de' sedili) qualche deiezione organica delle più popolarmente note ossedeva ora ogni utente: rendeva pavidi i più guardinghi, e guardinghi gli sconsiderati e avventati, se pure c'erano. Titubavan tutti pu poco (poco poco), trepidando, ognuno, del proprio retrospetto decoro, cioè decoro del fondo: dei propri pantaloni [...]. Una volta appesa a quer fonno, beh, se sa, ogni meno meritata patacca ne suol maculare il lucore, come le più reputate macchie di padre Secchi le rotondità luminose della fotosfera. da C.E. Gadda, Quer pasticciaccio brutto de via Merulana

Introduction! ♡₊˚ 🦢・₊✧

Hello everyone!! My name is Solaris or Sol for short and I am new to Shifting Tumblr. I am currently 21 and majoring in graphic design at my university! I discovered shifting due to shiftok in 2020 and have stuck with it since !! I've had two accidental shifts to an alt CR but, not to my DR unfortunately but I know I'll get there soon!! I'll list some of my DRs below and you guys can see if we have anything in common<3. ♡ 1. Streamer DR : This is my main DR. I adore it with my life. I used to always want to be a streamer back in my 2020 Minecraft SMP eras (Which I'm not in anymore </3). I am a variety streamer in this one and mostly stream minecraft, cooking/baking streams, and also just chatting and roblox raids of course!! My best friend is Quackity andd my love trope is childhood best friends to lovers(hehe, My favorite trope). ♡ 2. Descendants DR : I'm still in the process of finishing my script for this one!! So far I am the daughter of Cinderella and sister to Chad Charming( I'm the smart one of course ;) ). My name is Caitlin Charming and my best friends are Mal, my irl bestie Mae, Evie, Carlos, Jay and many many many more!! I do have a crush interest in this DR so I'll let ya'll guess who it is! ♡ 3. H2O DR : This one is pretty self explanatory LOL. Like be a mermaid and be friends with mermaids and swim and explore the ocean while trying to balance a regular life, like c'mon that sounds so fun!!

♡ 4 .WolfBlood DR : This one I feel like is a rare DR amongst shifters so if you have this as one of your DRs please hmu LOL. WolfBlood has always been my comfort show on Disney when it first launched in 2012 and I've always wanted to be a werewolf who lives among humans and I just think this one would be so fun (except for Shannon trying to find out what the 'beast on the moors' is, seems nagging. I've redone my script 20 times for this one so bare with me as I sort out the details </3. ♡ 5. Better CR DR : This one is also self explanatory, I just feel like a better CR is definitely what I want AND need. Better friend group, going out and having fun, going on adventures, having money, having good grades alll the time, having talents like singing and/or drawing etc; and marrying who your dream person is. Glad shifting came into my life because I loveee having a better CR DR. ♡ 5. Avatar DR : Self explanatory!! I'm the oldest sully and live in the forest with my family <3 That's just a few of the MANY DRs I have, so if you want to find out if we have a same DR feel free to ask :) I don't bite !!! If you're new to shifting and want to ask some questions, please ask them and I'll answer them to the best of my ability!! NO QUESTION IS DUMB<3. Shoutout to my bestie Mae for introducing me to this because I didn't know Shifting tumblr existed and I'm looking forward to meeting you all! @maebyshifting ‧₊˚ ☁️⋅♡𓂃 ࣪ ִֶָ☾.

Hello! Welcome to the Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Papa Louie!!

My name is Miles (@sunsetcorvid ) and I am here to offer a tournament of the best Papa Louie character!!!

There are 204 characters in my google doc. A majority of which have flipdeck cards. This post may update before the tournament date with more characters without flipdeck cards. I will randomize pairs and put them against one another. All characters range from each Papa Louie game, and I mean each one.

Only one will remain.

There will not be a bracket, as there are many characters and it stresses me out trying to make something as big as that. So, it will be a surprise on which ones are paired up.

I made this for fun and I hope yall have fun, too!!

We will begin May 15th.

LA LUCE UCCIDERÀ IL 5G

La tecnologia corre veloce...Chi di voi si ricorda il telex? I miei lo avevano ancora installato a casa nel 1988. E un considerevole stock di telex ce li aveva sullo stomaco anche Carlo De Benedetti, il quale, pensò bene di sbolognarli allo Stato, mentre dappertutto ormai si installavano i telefax. Pare che abbia pagato 10 miliardi di tangente per riuscire a far accettare alle Poste la enorme partita di telex che rappresentavano ormai una tecnologia obsoleta. L’Italia della ‘Milano da bere’ funzionava così, ma nessuno se ne accorgeva perché c’èra una Fiat 500 in ogni garage e un pollo su ogni tavola. Funziona ancora così, allora erano i telex obsoleti, come sono stati banchi e mascherine, ma la logica del business non cambia.

E allora da qualche parte c’è la spiegazione di questo affannarsi ad installare le antenne del 5G, pur sapendo che la tecnologia a microonde è già obsoleta ancor prima di installarla.

A cosa serve il 5G? O, piuttosto ‘a chi' serve il 5G?.

Ben presto le trasmissioni utilizzeranno i fasci di luce, che siano solari o al led. Senza cavi, senza radiofrequenze, senza danni fisici o neuronali. La luce sarà l’elemento che condurrà i nostri dati. Non si chiamerà più ‘wifi’ ma ‘lifi’ che sta per ‘ligtfi’. La nostra privacy sarà al sicuro perché la luce non attraversa i muri mentre le radiofrequenze sì. E basterà una lampadina led che emetta una flebile luce per riuscire a trasportare i dati di internet. Il lifi sarà molto più veloce del wifi che conosciamo, molto più veloce del 5G che il signor Colao ha voluto propinarci. L’internet delle cose sarà realizzato, ma nel rispetto della nostra privacy e della nostra salute. La tecnologia lifi è già in uso, sperimentata e collaudata, ma è ovvio che decine di miliardi per progettare il 5G non possono essere buttati via, per cui i padroni del 5G spingono affinché gli Stati comprino una tecnologia ormai obsoleta. Un po’ come i telex della Olivetti.

Allora mi domando: perché nessuno parla del lifi? Il gioco maledetto di chi ci impone il 5G, così come ci ha imposto il Covid19.

4- (e ultimo punto giuro scusa 💀) as a fellow simi enjoyer, a me fa impazzire la lore di: a) kimi che era il pilota preferito di charles e seb che era il pilota preferito di carlos b) charles che avrebbe voluto gareggiare con il 7 ma già ce l'aveva kimi, mentre carlos avrebbe voluto gareggiare con il 5 ma ce l'aveva seb c) charles che ha debuttato in sauber come kimi, carlos che ha debuttato in toro rosso come seb d) charles che si è spostato in ferrari prendendo il posto di kimi e carlos che si è spostato in ferrari prendendo il posto di seb

amo non scusarti mai, anche perché questo è il mio punto preferito (chissà perché…………..)

allora prima roba hellooooo???? fellow italian simi enjoyer???? anon noi due ci dobbiamo sposare asap 😩 (jk jk, però se vuoi venire mai a parlarmi della simi, i miei ask e i miei dm sono assolutamente aperti e disponibili 👀 (i am desperate))

seconda cosa I PARALLELS TRA LE DUE SHIP SONO >>>>>>>>>> (e tu ne hai indicati solo alcuni, che tra l’altro sono davvero scelti bene, quindi bravx mi complimento!!!)

in pratica charles è il parallel di kimi, all’inizio diffidente e con problemi ad aprirsi e ad attaccarsi alle persone, ma una volta apertosi diventa quella persona che ci tiene più di chiunque altro, sempre pronto a proteggerti, consolarti e ad essere lì per te (e che forse a volte si attacca troppo per poi essere deluso e perdere persone per lui importanti…). entrambi hanno anche avuto lutti pesanti da digerire (es. entrambi hanno perso il padre giovani), e conservano sempre il ricordo di queste persone care. also also entrambi sono molto molto attaccati alla famiglia e praticamente la mantengono (kimi ha praticamente sistemato suo fratello e i suoi genitori prima di tutto, e così anche charles con lorenzo arthur e pascale)

mentre carlos è il parallelo di seb, solari ed estroversi, sono tutti e due estremamente passionali in tutto ciò che fanno e non hanno mezze misure (soprattutto in ciò che amano, xhe sia la f1 o due certi soggetti…). sono persone con cui risulta molto semplice aprirsi (cough cough) e essere se stessi senza giudizi. entrambi ad un certo punto sono stati visti con una luce cattiva (vedi: seb in redbull/carlos che viene considerato uno stronzo egoista), ma quelli più vicini a loro sanno che queste descrizioni sono la cosa più lontana dalla verità possibile.

cazzo quanto amo tutti e quattro, cosa farei senza di loro 😭

giuro che potrei parlare all’infinito di questi quattro ma per non allungare troppo il papiro mi fermo qui per ora ahah

[roquewithq]

I've only ever considered shaving my head just to look like Carlos Alberto Solari... But my chaotic curly hair is just too cool!

[aronora8]

this might get long, srry in advance

so I often like to think of who would listen to music I do- and like. Had the revelation as I once again was thinking about it that Marty would prolly listen to FOB, gives me the vibes, he would know the older songs especially- Also there wasn't really like a whole reason or anything to it but I really like to think about Taylor listening to Set It Off, I feel like they have some albums that'd be really his style-

also I feel like just cuz the singer actually like has a degree (something in physics, I forgot exacts) I feel like Pally would have a slight liking towards Starset, especially the second album, listening to it while maybe tinkering w stuff to wind down. Also really torn between if like, Tohru would rather like something harder or sweeter (among that being some Isaac Dunbar songs maybe, or some specific unlike pluto songs, I feel like she'd especially play his songs before a stream starts since a bunch of his stuff is royalty free) , maybe both, considering how I shipped her w an oc who listens to harder stuff... just love sometimes thinking about music taste yknow!

man that also reminds me like, there's this song by Unlike Pluto called Broken Strings and like, to those who know Carlo well like, give it a listen, it's basically his song honestly

Marty liking FOB is canon, Tony Solary told me

I also feel like Tohru in paticular would have a strong liking towards video Game OSTs and would prefer instrumental songs overall!

But overall agreeing on all of this!

[dare-g]

1-25

Omg here we go

How many books did you read this year? 110!

Did you reread anything? What? None of my books were rereads this year

What were your top five books of the year? naming more than that cause 5 is too small a pool i read a lot of good ones so its hard and i know ill look at this later and kick myself for leaving something out but ones that stick out are probably ....East of Eden by John Steinbeck, A High Wind in Jamaica by Richard Hughes, The Rat by Gunter Grass, Solaris by Stanislaw Lem, Satantango by Laszlo Krasznahorkai, The Poetics of Space by Gaston Bachelard, Colonel Lagrimas by Carlos Fonseca, Mystery and Manners Flannery O'Conner, We by Yeygeny Zamyatin, The Books of Jacob by Olga Tokarczuk, The Copenhagen Trilogy by Tove Ditlevsen, Mr Palomar by Italo Calvino, A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again, David Foster Wallace, I Love Dick by Chris Kraus

Did you discover any new authors that you love this year? I had several authors I read for the fist time this year who I for sure am interested in reading more of the main ones being Gaston Bachelard, Laszlo Krasznahorkai, Chris Kraus, Tove Ditlevsen, Carlos Fonseca, Mark Leyner, Richard Hughes, J. G. Ballard, Bohumil Hrabal, Stanislaw Lem, Lindsey Drager

What genre did you read the most of? pretty much all my reading fits into the generic literature category ...I guess theyre mostly just dramas most of what i read is pretty grounded in the real world

Was there anything you meant to read, but never got to? already answered

What was your average Goodreads rating? Does it seem accurate? i dont have a Goodreads account

Did you meet any of your reading goals? Which ones? Yep! my goal was to read 80 books this year which I passed

Did you get into any new genres? not really a genre but a subject matter I read some non fiction books about architecture that was new

What was your favorite new release of the year? see question 20

What was your favorite book that has been out for a while, but you just now read? see the favorite list... why are these asks written like its normal to only read brand new books ...

Any books that disappointed you? Heaven by Mieko Kawakami comes to mind first didn't end up liking it really which was disappointing cause i thought she may be an author i could read more of considering i had heard some good things but idk now considering a lackluster introduction .... also a big one wasThe Sea, The Sea by Iris Murdoch (see question 16 ) but other than that most of the books i wasn't a fan of i wernt ones i had special hopes for but its still disapointing to not like a book...A Bright Ray of Darkness by Ethan Hawke, Invisible Ink by Patrick Modiano, The New Life A Day on a Collective Farm Fyodor Abramov, and Delilah by Marcus Goodrich

What were your least favorite books of the year? Panenka by Ronan Hession was the least favorite that was the one i actively disliked though there were a handful i just didn't end up caring/ wasn't my thing... see above

What books do you want to finish before the year is over? I have a little to go in Snow Country but Ill be sure to finish it before midnight

Did you read any books that were nominated for or won awards this year (Booker, Women’s Prize, National Book Award, Pulitzer, Hugo, etc.)? What did you think of them? I didnt read any considering most of the books i read are older than 2022

What is the most over-hyped book you read this year? Probably Iris Murdoch's The Sea, The Sea considering it's a fairly popular book (i had to wait in a surprisingly long list of people who had it on hold) which i had heard some people rave about but eh i wasn't really impressed

Did any books surprise you with how good they were? The biggest surprise was A High Wind in Jamaca which sounds like it would just be an adventure book but ended up being a lot more and really impacted me .. also ones that id say surprised me just cause i wasnt really expecting it were Colonel Lagrimas by Carlos Foseca Six Legs Walking by Elizabeth Bernays, and The Archive of Alternate Endings by Lindsey Drager

How many books did you buy? a lot i really dont know tbh

Did you use your library? constantly

What was your most anticipated release? Did it meet your expectations? most of the books I read are older so I think the only book i waited for was The Books of Jacob's English release which yeah it did

Did you participate in or watch any booklr, booktube, or book twitter drama? no never i honestly dont want to hear about it

What’s the longest book you read? The books of Jacob by Olga Tokarczuk wich was 965 pages

What’s the fastest time it took you to read a book? answered already

Did you DNF anything? Why? all finished in recent years ive commited myself to finishing what ive started even if it pains me ...

What reading goals do you have for next year? i ususally pick a number slightly higher than the past year but considering the amount i did this year i doubt i beat it cause i typically dont read this many but whatever ill make my goal 111 lol

Thank you for asking!! I hope youre having a wonderful New Years Eve!
