Announcement

Hi, folks. Firstly, I wanted to say thank you for all the likes and reblogs over the past few months of this blog's existence. I knew this was going to be a labour of love, but I didn't expect that so many people would enjoy following along - thank you all!

However. I'm currently in the middle of writing my MA dissertation and moving house, and I know that the queue will run down before I have time to put up another batch of posts. I'm really loathe to let this adventure lapse, but I think I need to clear the decks elsewhere to enjoy finishing this journey.

I do very much intend to come back! I really want to beat the game, finish the story, and find out how long Link and Zelda are apart in Tears of the Kingdom. I hope you can all be patient with me for the time being.

Thank you again for all your support, it's been so wonderful to build a little community here and make something that others have enjoyed. My dissertation is due in September. Wish me luck!

me when people ask me how to say "I don't care" in french

(description:)

The IASIP meme of Charlie Kenny gesturing wildly at a conspiracy board, with the second picture added to his papers - the second picture being a table with 7 columns classifying an exhaustive number of ways of saying "I don't care" in French, based on how common, vulgar and funny they each are.

Column 1: Socially acceptable and common: -Je m’en fiche -J’en ai rien à faire* (*less formal variation of “Je n’en ai rien à faire” which still belongs to this category)

Column 2: Vulgar and common enough to not be shocking: -Je m’en fous -(J’en ai) rien à foutre

Column 3: More vulgar, and common with a ‘teenage’ connotation: -(Je)* m’en tape -(Je) m’en branle -(Je) m’en balec’ -(Je) m’en bats les couilles -(J’en ai) rien à battre -(J’en ai) rien à branler -”Balec’” (* omitting “je” is frequent and makes the expression even less formal)

Column 4: ‘Familiar’ (only somewhat vulgar, completely informal) and uncommon enough to be considered somewhat funny: -J’en ai* rien à carrer -J’en ai* rien à cirer -Je m’en tamponne (le coquillard) -Je m’en balance -J’en ai* rien à péter (* can be replaced with “Je n’en ai rien à …” to give it a formal connotation, in which case the expression belongs to category 6)

Column 5: Socially acceptable and uncommon/formal enough to be considered funny: -Je m’en contrefiche -Je m’en soucie comme d’une guigne -J’en ai rien à fiche

Column 6: Vulgar and uncommon, somewhat formal: -Je m’en contrefous

Column 7: Socially acceptable and very uncommon / very formal, enough to sound snobbish (and therefore a bit funny): -Peu m’importe -Il m’importe peu -Je n’en ai cure -Je ne m'en soucie guère

I've said this before but it does bear repeating - I've always known antisemitism existed, of course - in a standard goy, frankly naive, "this doesn't really affect me" way. I learned about the Holocaust in school, always been pretty aware of the double standards surrounding Israel, but I was also certain I knew I wasn't antisemitic, so didn't give it much thought. Until the last few months.

I started doing a lot of reading and learning and listening to Jewish voices in the wake of my disgust at the overall leftist reaction to Oct. 7 and I have been bowled over and utterly appalled at the sheer scale and insidiousness of the way antisemitism is baked into the very foundations of Western society. As a goy I would have sworn upside down I'd never had an antisemitic thought or belief in my life. And while consciously that may certainly be true, the process of unlearning centuries of unconscious extremely prevalent prejudice is not a straightforward one and the only way to do it in good faith is listen and learn.

That's why I do not trust fellow goyim who are so adamant that they know exactly what antisemitism is and isn't and know for a fact that they aren't - because the deeply insidious nature and long, long history of antisemitism means it is almost impossible to live and grow up in Western society (obviously antisemitism exists elsewhere but as a Westerner that's the experience I'm talking to) without being influenced in some way by it.

If a Jewish person tells you you are being antisemitic, sit down, shut up, swallow your pride and your indignation, and LISTEN AND LEARN.

i think it is funny when people make wyll the therapy friend as if that man even knows what therapy is. that 18 charisma is making you think he’s not fighting literal devils in there HE IS LYING TO YOU. don’t get me wrong he loves healthy communication he does NOT ever think about cognitive behavioral therapy though. actually give me 15 minutes alone in a room with him i know he has an ulder sized blind spot in his view of authority but i bet i could get him to subscribe to a deleuze-guattari viewpoint of psychiatry even. defender of the people and all that.

The It Girl Weekend Guide

🎀 Self Care

While you should always be caring and loving to yourself, weekends are the perfect opportunity to go an extra mile.

Start your day with meditation or maybe a small dancing session. Even on working saturdays that can feel like a drag, doing something fun can set the right tune for your day.

Clean up your space and room and put on a face mask. Try out a homemade face mask recipe (here's mine). While we might have busy lives, it is important to rest and regenerate to avoid burnouts.

Another important thing to remember is that self care is more than just taking care of your physical environment. It also includes taking care of your mental health. Journaling is an excellent tool to become aware of and to work through your emotions and thoughts.

🎀 Setting Goals

If you want to have a good and productive weekend, first you have to set goals. By goals here I not only mean your work/school/uni goals but also things you want to do. This could be going out with your friends, or visiting some place you want to, maybe a show you want to catch up on, a hobby you want to indulge in etc.

While work is important, so are the things you want to do. Time passes so quickly, so it is important to live your life to the fullest. By saying this in no way am I implying to neglect your responsibilities, as they are always high on your priorities but to also focus on your desires, dreams, the people you love and the things you enjoy.

🎀 Romanticize

I know you have probably heard this one about a thousand times, but it is important to realise and see the magic in the small and ordinary moments in your life.

Live in the present moment. Do not miss out on the things you appreciate in your life and the things that are right in front of you.

🎀 Recharge and Reorganize

While it is important to stay on track with your goals, it is also completely okay if you have times where all you want to do is nothing.

As the weekend is coming to an end, as in the dreaded Sunday evening, plan your week and prepare the required items for Monday morning.
