For example, I acquired English in Ireland, where we speak a number of overlapping dialects that get grouped under the title "Hyberno English".

Depending where you are in the country, you may hear things like "Are yous coming with me to the shops later?" "Did yiz both study biology?" "I heard ye two were away on holiday!"

These forms are often criticised as not "proper" English because of classism and such. But they ARE proper English and I suspect most dialects have them.

Also! If you answered yes, I'd love to learn what your second person plural pronoun is! Especially if I didn't list it above :>

What I don't get is why news outlets and Netflix are trying to convince us that arcane was expensive to make. 250 million usd for both seasons they said, and obviously that's a lot of money, but they make the mistake of comparing it to big budget movies like Tangled. So you're telling me that I got an animated masterpiece that combines multiple different art styles fantastic voice acting and creative and passionate writing, that's 6-7 hours LONGER than major animated movies, and its the same fucking price?? And you're expecting me to agree with the corporations outlook, that it's too expensive? Yes, tangled is considered one of the most expensive animated movies, but arcane is like FOUR Tangleds. Many other 3D animated movies fall within the 160 million mark, but again, they're hours shorter than arcane was. I think the prices are comparable. I believe in saw someone (on reddit maybe?) divide the cost down to minutes of screen time for each show or movie and it becomes really obvious. I'm also pretty sure that many of these movie budgets do not include marketing in their overall expenses; arcane does.

This isnt even bringing live action tv shows into the equation; i dont think arcane even touches like the top thirty of those. And yet it's framed as such an expense!! Bitch its an incredibly successful tv show!! Ik Netflix is cheap as shit and has its own reputation to grapple with, but is the disdain for animation so much? Is it disdain for female lead action, for poc representation, for LGBT rep on screen? For the animation medium as a whole? I know the answer of course. But it's still very upsetting to acknowledge and think about.

Separately, arcane is absolutely crushing it. Ik act three is going to knock it out of the ballpark. Keep crushing corporate execs expectations please.

hey in ur peri animatic: (https://youtu.be/OCqlRuDaXYU?si=K52WDu_vw9rg7chz) that I have been permanently obsessed over since today and have watched about 20 times by now so much that I have drawn & posted stuff based on it what was that partial bug form peri had?

I haven’t watched either of the show btw so if it’s explained in the show please tell me plsssss

OK, SO the bug thing is not technically canon to the series. It's based on my own headcanons for fairy biology, but i do have justifications for it!! Fairies have very strong shape-shifting abilities, so it would make sense that the form they show to humans isn't necessarily their true form(not to mention extreme that mimicry is very common in insects). And you want to know the visible traits almost every fairy has in common? Being very small with Insect-like wings.

The fact that their humanoid form isn't their true form in actually confirmed in the show! Cosmo and Wanda are revealed to look like biblically accurate pseudo-angels in the museum episode. (I say pseudo angels because the Flaming Sword of Eden is only debatably sentient and I don't think is considered an angel. Ophanim are also debatably not angels because they don't have wings (sorry for the angel tangent I like angels))

So wouldn't their true forms be angelic then? Well, yes. But I like bugs so. Also I have more headcanons to justify myself. I like to think that they have both a true-true form (incomprehensible to the human brain, probably exists mostly in a dimension invisible to us, that looks how we imagine biblically accurate angels), and a fairy form (which is visible to humans but is naturally very insect like and tends to scare people). So, in order to interact with humans, they have to learn to shapeshift into a humanoid form but will occasionally slip if they get too relaxed/aren't careful, hence the mandibles coming out when he yawns!

The reason they struggle so much more with human forms than the animals or objects they typically turn into is that, well, they aren't trying to convince those animals or objects. The more human they try to look, the harder it is to keep up convincingly. If you turn into a really uncanny squirrel, only other squirrels will notice. If you turn into a really uncanny human, they form a lynch mob and burn you at the stake.

you ever wonder how accurate your understanding of the "general opinion within the community" actually is???

like do people actually not like fiveman or is it just a parroted echo of something one guy said one time?

i've never seen anyone talking negatively about go onger but i've definitly heard people say its a disliked/less popular season so what's the deal there?????

how much of what *i* believe the "general opinion" to be is just the first opinion i saw?????????

it has been three years and three days since Ryn died. every year is different; the first year, those first days I honestly thought I might not make it - I told a couple of people last weekend that this was the milestone birthday I wasn't sure I'd hit, even though I've had bad brain times off and on a lot of my life, that first winter was -- yeah. and the first anniversary (ironically, the day Queen Elizabeth died) was intensely overwhelming, and the second one was intense in a different way but I could see the future again, finally, and this last week...

I just moved, and without being too specific about exact location, it's a new city for the first time in almost exactly 22 years, and it's the first move in I literally don't know how long where I chose the timing and the place, and I was terrified and excited and - I'm happy.

I've used this mood tracker for like five and a half years, and seriously, this is the longest happy stretch since just before we got the cancer news. I'm happy with my new space and my new location and I had a birthday party for the first time in literally a decade and my people were here, and Ryn died three years and three days ago.

and I can see the box that holds (some of) their remains, with red and silver glitter stickers spelling out their chosen name, the way our friends decorated it at the memorial, and a few other special stickers, and there might be a new one, a Malort sticker that was a gift from someone who never knew them, and they never got to have Malort, or meet the friend who was going to make them drink it, but it feels right.

it feels right to be happy and to be crying and to be figuring out how to lay out the art and the photos and to be figuring out what comes next, and they're not a person anymore but they're still here in me and in our friends and in you reading this.

i delete any hate comment on ahb! that i see bc i’m not the one except for the for the very first hate comment ever. which came directly after i uploaded the final chapters of that story. ironically, the person who left it was the first person to read the whole fic in its entirety (ouch! but i digress). i keep the little hate comment up as a relic. the first hater ever if you will. imagine there’s a gold frame around it.
