Sorry Athena, but that’s actually American Pie.
American Gods is actually a 2000s reality show singing competition, the og of the modern version of this genre. That actually spawned several singing careers but more interestingly spawned an absolutely horrible 2003 movie, a logistically improbable theme park attraction, and a interactive DVD extra for Shrek 2.
My dad is making me read American Gods… So like, what’s it about? The copy of the book we have has no dust jacket, therefore, no summary.
It's about three American Dogs who have to travel home from California to Maine. It's a long journey, but they face down a bear and several other dangers, including dogcatchers.
#I know it’s still going but it was#most relevant in the 2000s#pop idol was a thing first and that’s what the format was based on but it only had 2 seasons so don’t at me#From Justin to Kelly makes a lot more sense when you realize Simon Fuller was also responsible for the Spice Girls movie and S club#Also the defunctland video on the theme park ride is really good#I watched this show a lot when I was a kid and looking back yikes were they mean#But clearly they created a formula that appealed to the human id in such a way that it lasted#Also have I watched Ru Paul’s Drag Race and Project Runway (for years) which also do a lot of emotional manipulation#and really enjoyed them#Yes I have

RECKLESS - WAKE UP AND BREAK UP
Masterlist
Y'all thought you were going to get Name and Choso so fast ?
"SA-TO-RU"
Upon hearing his name, he opened his eyes groaning at the throbbing pain he just woke to. He turns his head to the side as Mae smiles realizing he's finally awake.
"You really are a mess" She giggles rolling on top of him, he in return pushed her off. "What's your issue?"
"Not now. I'm not in the mood for anything." He sits up from the bed and grabs his glasses. "Was Suguru here Mae?"
She turns her back on him not acknowledging his question. He sighs in frustration. "Upset over pushing you off. Mae I have a hangover there's no reason for you to be upset."
"Whatever" rolling her eyes at his statement, "Yes your little friend was here, he had you over his shoulder, it caused you to trend for a bit last night." She grabs her phone scrolling to find something. "SEE!" Shoving the phone in his face, wincing at the bright screen.
"Of course it's Popnewz" He groans upon reading the tweet, covering his face with his hands. "I'm glad they came to help.." He couldn't help but smile, Mae raises a brow.
"They are just nobodies so why fret over them that they helped you?" The moment the words left her mouth, Satoru glared at her.
"I think I've had enough with the constant insults towards my friends, when they have done nothing to you. So much talk when they have more relevancy on their own than what you can do by yourself without your parents' help--" He tensed up, he spoke without thinking. "Mae listen--"
"Don't, the harms been done," She glares, harshly shoving her phone in his hand. "Your ex girlfriend on the other hand found someone as well, taking over your trending spot."
He raises a brow at her before looking down at the phone as his eyes widen slightly. "She kissed Choso?" Saying out loud didn't feel real, he winces at the ache in his heart. He frowns at the tweet as the Screen fades to black.
"Why are you upset? You have me." Mae pecks his cheek. Satoru takes a deep breath, pushing Mae off.
"Mae we have a different way of processing our thoughts." He paused, does he really want any of this to continue? "Y'know I don't think this is working out as I hoped it would." He blurted out, tensing up as he looked up at Mae's reaction. Eyes widening as she lets out a small gasp of disbelief.
She breaks into laugh, then a small chuckle before breaking into a full laughter. "Did you hit your head too hard or something?" Clutching her stomach laughing. "You're funny Satoru." She smiles before realizing he wasn't mirroring the same emotions, her smile drops. "Are you serious..?"
"Listen, I realized now I still love her Mae...you were a temptation that I fell through with. It shouldn't have never been you--""YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS I CANT BELIEVE YOU." She shouts, cutting him off. "Whatever we're over then." She puts her shoes on. "I'm going home but just know Satoru, this isn't over between you and I."
"She's not going to take your cheating ass back either." She laughs, "Just know you made her my problem." She waves laughing leaving his room.
He hears the door slam, echoing as he sighs in relief, the room is finally empty and for once it's comforting. He lays back down on the bed. "Fuck this I'm taking a nap, I'll worry about her later."

i saw someone on twitter writing qsmp names in korean and im trying so hard not to be bothered i know they have good intentions but it was just so wrong in parts so instead here's how qsmp names would be written in korean BY THE SOUND not how they're written. note that i am not korean nor on the korean side of qsmptwt but as a casual kpoppie it's a rite of passage to learn hangul and try to learn korean at one point therefore though i am not a trusted source i do know the basics of the phonetics LUL
alphabetical order & categorized!
get ready for me to infodump on mouth sounds
update from the morning after this post: fixed/optimized some!!!
english speaking creators:
badboyhalo: 밷보이헤이로 (baed-bo-i-he-i-ro/lo) i infer it'd be easier to just call him 헤이로 out of every part of him name please let's halo-truth bbh. the 헤이 slurs into the "hey/hei" sound, very little accentuation on the just one part, it works as one!!
dantdm: 단티디엠 or 댄티디엠 (dan-ti-di-em, daen-ti-di-em) i've heard both pronunciations for the name dan, it's a matter of preference here! EDIT: also possibly 댼 instead which is also daen but like, not really? but also they're really similar? and i don't know how to hear the difference but there is one and nevermind don't worry about it man
fit: 피트 (pi-teu) directly would be 핕 but that's just a tricky one it's bound to have a soft ㅡ sound following
foolish: 푸리쓰 or 푸리쌰? (pu-ri/li-sseu, pu-ri/li-ssya) THIS ONE IS TRICKY if it does go 쌰 it's be a soft one, but more likely 쓰 EDIT: IS IT 풀리쎠 (peul-ri-ssyeo) ?!?!?!? IM STILL ON THIS FOOLISH IS SO TOUGH TO PUT INTO HANGUL IM NOT GONNA BE OVER IT
ironmouse: 아이욘마우스 or 아이룐마우스 (a-i-yon-ma-u-seu, a-i-ryon/lyon-ma-u-seu) this one feels tit for tat, same same, just a minor difference in accentuating the r in iron or not! EDIT: could also be 아이런 (a-i-reon) or 아이론 (a-i-ron) !!!
jaiden: ���이든 (je-i-deun) no notes very easy and straightforward one
lenay: 르네이 (reu/leu-ne-i) same with jaiden's!
nihachu / niki: 니하추 or 니아추, 니키 (ni-ha-chu, ni-a-chu, ni-ki) another same same thing with ni-HA or ni-A, just depends on accentuation or not! the 추 may possibly be said as 츄 instead, but im unsure of which
philza: 피르쟈, 피르 (pi-reu/leu-jya, pi-reu/leu) no notes, straightforward! as you will come to notice, f's usually translate to ㅍ's, and z's usually translate to ㅈ's!
quackity: 콰키티 (kua/kwa-ki-ti) no notes! i heard like months back that quackity's korean fandom endearingly calls him 키티 i think?? fun fact i remembered :)
slimecicle / charlie: 스라임씨컬, 챨이 (seu-ra/la-im-ssi-keol/keor, chyal/chyar-i) wow okay so how do you write charlie in korean because i KNOW there's no way it's 챠르리 (chya-reu-ri) my tongue is tripping over the 르리, it has to be 챨이, or 챠리, or 챨리 right??? okay the more i think the more 챨리 (chyal-li) sounds right ok everyone go home i think it's 챨리 LUL
tinakitten / tina: 티나키던, 티나 (ti-na-ki-deon, ti-na) no notes! straightforward!
tubbo: 터뽀 (teo-bbo) no notes! but also i feel like there's other ways to write it that im just not convinced are correct LUL
wilbur soot: 윌버 쑽 (wil/wir-beo ssut) no notes!
spanish speaking creators:
carre: 카레 (ka-re) no notes!
elmariana: 에르마리아나 or 엘마리아나 (e-reu/leu-ma-ri/li-a-na, el-ma-ri-a-na) the reason why i included 에르 alongside 엘 is because it ends up sounding like "ed", the L/R sound in korean is in that same range and when said fast or cut abruptly like 엘, it sounds like a D, if not for context :) so 엘 COULD work! but it'd be hard to recognize it as an L/R sound without some extra space made for the sound. this is also relevant for elquackity!
german: 헤르만 or 헬만 (he-reu/leu-man, her/hel-man) same thing as last note applies here! it'd sound like HED-man more than HER-man but, still, could work!
luzu, arin: 루쥬 or 루주, 아린 (ru/lu-jyu, ru/lu-ju, a-rin/lin) no notes! i see luzu more said with the 쥬 sound instinctively but it's one of those either or i think EDIT: if it were the spain pronunciation i think it'd be 루튜 (lu-tyu) or 루뜌 (lu-ddyu) ??? the thhh sound doesn't exist in korean but this is the closest it gets i think
maximus, maxo: 맠수머스, 맠서 (mak-su-meo-seu, mak-seo) okay at this point my brain is mush and im sure there's a better way to write this but it's a tricky one. the 맠 could also be 막 (mag) but im unsure where in the mouth the difference is between 맠 and 막, because hangul is very mouth oriented, it's allll about tongue placement, and i am SO not on that X_X EDIT: i change my mind it's 막 for maximus but 맠서 is fine i think idk how to explain is just is. also alternate pronunciationfor maximus: 막씨머스 (mag-ssi-meo-seu)
missa sinfonia: 미싸 씬퍼냐 (mi-ssa ssin-peo-nya) yeah that seems about right (my brain is melting everything is hangul) no notes! EDIT: ok but IS it possibly 미사 (mi-sa)??? im doubting myself here
polispol, pol: 폴에쓰폴, 폴 (pol-e-sseu-pol, pol) no notes!
rivers: 리버스 (ri/li-beo-seu) no notes!
roier: 로이예 or 로이옐 (ro/lo-i-ye, ro/lo-i-yer/yel) this is one of those scenarios where an abrupt L/R sound works just fine! don't know how to explain it! but it just works!
rubius: 루비어스 (ru-bi-eo-seu) no notes!
spreen: 스프린 (seu-peu-rin) no notes!
vegetta: 베헷따 (be-het-dda) okay i don't know how to explain but tonalities of how you say vegetta in spanish make me think 베 and that the tta would be equal to the sharpness of 따 stick with me here i've been doing hangul names for so long now i can't see the end of the horizon EDIT: for some reason im changing my mind it might be 페헷따 (pe-het-dda)
willyrex, willy: 위리렉스, 위리 (wi-ri-reg-seu, wi-ri) okay again idk how to explain but the reason why ㄱ and not ㅋ is because it just feels like it instinctively, like that's a deep ㄱ abrubt stop, not a high ㅋ abrupt stop. im losing my marbles
portuguese speaking creators:
bagi: 바지 (ba-ji) no notes!
cellbit: 셀비트 (sel-bi-teu) guys this is getting hard. yes it's somehow sel and not se-leu. yes it's bi-teu and somehow not bit. if it were bit it'd be missing the aftermath TCH sound and i think it sounds good with it. the sel has space to breathe and isn't abrupt. stay with me. we're almost done EDIT: fellow hangul enjoyer anon in ask box said 셀빛 (sel-bich/bit) or 셀비츠 (sel-bi-cheu) if with the accent, i like these, ur getting put on the fridge with the best magnets. 빛 is a fun one because it sounds pretty much the same to 빝 or 빗, all end in the same stop of the tongue going to the roof of the mouth, but 빛 in particular means "light" and i think that's nice :)
felps: 펠릅스 (pel-reub-seu) holy moly i didn't expect this to be a tongue twister but i think i nailed it
mike: 마이크 or 마이키 (ma-i-keu, ma-i-ki) i've heard mike being called mikey so i included it for fun because there's been so much hardship. so so much. we're in this together.
pac: 팩 or 패크 (paeg, pae-keu) paeg and not paek because it's just a more throat based sound to say pac idk man. pae-keu is a hypothetical im losing it man i don't know anything anymore EDIT: okay i change my mind it's definitely 패크 over 팩 im so loopy from hyperfocus overload man EDIT EDIT: i can also see 팍 (pak) being used though that isn't how it sounds for us, i can see someone saying it that way in korean if they were to read it before hearing it and then go from there
french speaking creators:
antoine daniel: 안투완 단옐 (an-tu-wan dan-yel) in french the a's are long so 단 over 댄 is a guaranteed. the yel could be accentuated more but you get the point by now
aypierre: when french accent, 아이피에히, when english accent, 에이피에어 (a-i-pi-e-hi, e-i-pi-e-eo) (thank u anon for contributing 피에어 that makes much more sense)
baghera jones: one way is 바게라 전스 the other is 바길라 전스 (ba-ge-ra jeon-seu, ba-gil/gir-ra jeon-seu) a baGERa or bagEARa dilemma.....
etoiles: 에투왈 (e-tu-wal/war) no notes!
kameto: 카메토 (ka-me-to) no notes!
THERE!!!! IT'S DONE!!!! this was hard but i feel like i got most right. and when im wrong let's just say this was just hangul practice and not serious right guys, just practice round, right??? we don't take me so serious, right??? just stick fight with totem??? if you know korean especially the phonetics better than me which is NOT a high bar at all, you can step over that bar EASY, tell me a better way to write these thank u! smile :)
bonus round coming at you live from the morning after!!! some others that i thought "yeah let's include you"
im gonna be working on this on and off all day i think so don't be scared if someone isn't here chances are brain is doing something else but will add it later :)
cucurucho: ���쿠루쵸 (ku-ku-ru/lu-chyo) no notes!
walter bob: 월�� 법 (weol/weor-teo beob) could also be 봅 (bob)
chayanne: 챠얀 (chya-yan) or 차얀 (cha-yan) no notes!
tallulah: 타룰라 (ta-lul-la) no notes!
ramon: 라몬 (ra-mon) or if you're pac you say 하몬 (ha-mon) heehee :)
dapper: 답퍼 (dab-peo) or possibly 답뻐 (dab-bbeo) but im not so sure about that one
leo / leonardo / leonarda: if you speak english it's 리오 (li-o) if you speak spanish it's 레오 (le-o), then add on 날도 (nar/nal-do) or 날다 (nar/nal-da) :)
richarlyson / richas: 리찰리손, 리차스 (ri-chal/char-li-son, ri-cha-seu) no notes!
pomme: 펌 (peom) or 폼 (pom) both work here!
trump: 트람프 or 트럼프, to make it trumpet change the 프 to 펫 (pet/ped)
tilin: 티린 (ti-lin/rin) no notes!
juanaflippa: 환나프리파 (hwan/huan-na-peu-li-pa)
bobby: 법비 (beob-bi) or 봅비 (bob-bi) both work here!
empanada: 엠파나다 (em-pa-na-da) no notes!
pepito: 페피토 (pe-pi-to) no notes!
sunny(sideup): 선니사읻엎 (seon-ni-sa-id-eop) this one works nicely because the 읻 bleeds into the 엎 and sounds like it's one full iddeop :) this one is an ending in ㅍ not ㅂ moment but i don't know how to explain why
#goopert talks qsmp#qsmp#i've been here 30 years. some of these were fun to do though i liked EXCEPT THE DIFFICULT ONES but fun NOT YOU MAX & FOOSH THAT WAS TOUGH#okay fine i'll main tag but im SHY. be NICE. please. thank you.#long post

I know that vampire chronicles aren't meant to be historical accurate. Like you read this and you know that all this events can happen in literally any time and space. Like really. The times doesn't really matter there, there are no nuances.
Listen, I'm not a historian, by any means. It's just like a hobby, but I have millions of them so I don't even learn that much.
Also I usually don't give a shit about accuracy in media, like whatever, until it's science do what you want, whatever suits your story
But sometimes it's time to say enough is enough.
So, we need to talk about Armands origin in Kievan Rus'. Okay, that's cool, we don't really explore it, but well whatever, at least we're not messing this up, right? Right?
While I was reading I ignored it. I was reading TVA in polish translation I thought like okay, names and nuances probably got lost in translation. It's a really bad translation tho.
But out of curiosity today I opened the book in English, because this was sticking in my head.
And it appears it wasn't translators fault.
So well, it's like kinda huge mistake. Like no one really checked it? But this book constantly claims that like Kievan Rus' was then in Russia. And suprise, suprise: that's simply not true. Well the term is kinda not right and can mean anything, like back it existed as state it was huge, but (judging on the mention of Kiev itself) that it was like somewhere in that area.
So I'll spare whole history, it's not relevant. We're stop around 1480's, when Armand was born (based on my calculations). And in that time the region was called Kiev Voivodeship (hope I got it right in english), and it was part of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, and stayed there until 1569, when it passed to the Crown of the Kingdom of Poland (when the Polish-lithuanian commonwealth was created, but both countries were in union since early XV century)
So in the book we have some lines like this
Armand, bestie, I don't know how to break it to you, you're not russian. You never were. You've never lived in Russia (or back then I would use rather the name Moscow, but again I'm not a historian). More of a Ukrainian if so, but also not the world I would use. Most accurate would be rusyn (I think, or ruthenian???? I'm not sure how it works in English, anyway not russian).
Then we have this, and well... Oh boy. Something went really wrong with geography here. First of all, you've never been to Russia (or better say Principality of Moscow, like it wasn't even called Russia, from what I know, but i might be wrong).
So okay, Moscow and Novgorod were in part of Moscow indeed but Cracow!?!?!?? (Known also as my absolutely favourite city in the world). Like Cracow like Never ever has been a part of Russia. Okay, I get confusion with Kiev if you really really don't care about basic research. But Cracow???
Here's the map. Unfortunately it like administrative of Polish-Lithuanian commonwealth in 1619, but well you'll see my point. That doesn't make any sense
Cracow always was polish. Like it's our second capital. And look how far from Russia it is. Even during the partitions it goes to Austria not Russia.
Last thing I want to point out is this one
Like, man, maybe you speak russian, I do not doubt, like during travel to Moscow you could learn I guess.
I'm not entirely sure, but I guess the language there is ruthenian not russian. Like ruthenian is old language which is base for slavic languages such as Belarusian or Ukrainian. And what is also important it was not the language used in the Principality of Moscow, so it's definitely not russian.
Okay, thanks for reading if anyone is still there. I won't bore you any longer. It just was sitting in my head and I had to throw it out because we'll, basic research I guess.

Nice to see another phan of Danny Phantom! :D
Do you know that headcanon of Russian Vlad?
Well, as a russian myself, I can share with a funny thing about it. Vlad has that rus-housewife tradition from his mother, watching a hard drama TV show while calmly cooking. Danny is happened to sit in Vlad's kitchen, when he was cooking. The boy was interesting what people saying, why it's not eng, tho. Unfortunately, he found how to turn on eng subtitles... Since then he understands better what's wrong with Vlad as he calls it "the cozy family entertainment".
No? I haven't. Personally, I project a lot of myself onto the many pieces of media that I obsess with. So, I naturally headcanon the Fentons and Vlad as Latino. Bla bla not relevant to what I'm gonna blabber on about next
I do like the idea of Danny learning Russian since he wants to be an astronaut. I'm pretty sure you need to learn Russian to become an astronaut. (Something something… Needing to understand Russian to go on a specific spacecraft when traveling to the International Space Station since NASA ended that shuttle program a few years ago.)
I like the little story you wrote in Anon, It's sweet. I think it would be funny if Danny was secretly trying to learn it off of Vlad, by eavesdropping on him when he speaks Russian. Maybe he'd lightly suggest watching some old dramas with him. Vlad seeing this as interest from Danny goes with it
‘Daniel wants to know more about me 🥺? Sure sure I have plenty of films we can watch together!’
I can totally see how watching those dramas with Vlad could help Danny pick up Russian faster. It’s natural for people to mimic the inflections and speech patterns they hear in movies or shows. The idea of a 14-year-old American boy unintentionally adopting the tone and phrasing of a 41-year-old Russian man would probably sound really funny to a native speaker.
Vlad would totally tease Danny for it when he inevitably finds out how similar Danny sounds to himself lol

Mando’a tense/aspect/mood
This is where I’m currently at with my reinterpretation of Mando’a TAM. I’m not 100% satisfied yet (there are still a number of open questions like if and how the tenses combine, how exactly should fronting the particles be interpreted, etc.) so I might continue changing things later, but I figured I’d throw this out here on the off chance of getting some opinions or thoughts. I’d especially like to hear if you think something doesn’t work.
This post is something of a continuation of this previous post about TAM systems in creole languages and how they compare to Mando’a. And obliquely this one where I lament the fact that Mando’a doesn’t have a perfective/completive aspect. But then I had the thought that many languages conflate certain tenses and aspects. Like languages typically don’t have a gazillion different tenses and moods and different particles or conjugations for each. Instead they usually have a handful of different tenses/aspects/moods that make certain salient distinctions, but conflate others. Perfect tense/aspect is maybe the most familiar example, conflating past tense and perfective/completive aspect. So instead of coming up with new tenses, I started thinking about how the canon ones work and all the different ways natural languages combine and distinguish tenses/aspects/moods.
And just to be clear, this is me thinking about possible ways to do TAM in my version of Mando’a grammar, not an analysis of canon Mando’a. My goals are to make it
at least superficially compatible with canon (i.e. to not overtly contradict the canon corpus or how Mando’a speakers have already learned to do things)
not a code for English (because that’s boring)
more fully functional grammar (that allows expressing more complicated ideas)
My current (re)interpretation is that Mando’a has five tenses (one unmarked and four marked) and four moods (one unmarked and three marked). Like many natural languages (including English), Mando’a somewhat conflates tense and aspect. TAM are expressed by preverbal particles, many of which can attach to not just verbs, but adjectives and nouns as well. They can also be fronted, and so they’re not very tightly bound to the verbs.
Tense
English tenses situate an event relative to the time of the speech act (frame of reference). When I say “I ran”, I mean I ran before the time of speaking about it just now. This is called absolute tense, i.e. it’s absolute in time. However, Mando’a tenses are relative: they situate an event relative to the frame of reference, i.e. time is relative to the topic I’m talking about, not the time when I’m talking. If I’m talking about what happened yesterday and I say “I ran”, I mean I ran before whatever happened yesterday. And if I’m talking about something that happens tomorrow and say “I ran”, I mean I will have run before whatever happens tomorrow.
Why? Because what Traviss says about Mando’a tenses (that colloquially mandos don’t use tenses and tenses were invented to deal with aruetiise) doesn’t make sense—mandos wouldn’t be making business deals with outsiders in Mando’a. However, this interpretation would produce exactly the kind of confusion with and seemingly optional usage of tenses that Traviss describes.
Present (unmarked)
The present tense is unmarked. In English, it can be translated as present or simple past, or even simple future. “I am leaving”, “I left”, and “I will leave” can all be expressed by the present tense. This is why outsiders might think Mando’a colloquially doesn’t use tenses or that tenses in Mando’a are optional.
Ni ba’slana. I am leaving.
Ni ba’slana kar’tuur. I left yesterday.
Ni ba’slana nakar’tuur. I will leave tomorrow.
The present tense can also refer to an ongoing event that is still relevant to the present moment:
Ni ratiin kar’tayli kaysh sa ruusaanyc. I have always known them to be reliable (and this is still true).
Past (ru, r)
Or technically, anterior tense or relative past. The anterior tense places the event before the frame of reference. In Mando’a, it is used for things that happened before the frame of reference or things in the past that are relevant now. The closest English translation would be “had done” or “had been doing”.
It is somewhat conflated with perfective/completive aspect. The completive aspect marks an event that is complete(d) or a past event that’s relevant to the current topic. They share at least some semantic overlap, which is how the conflation of past and perfective = perfect happens in many languages.
The relevance to the topical time could be resultative:
Ni epa tiingilar. I am eating tiingilar. Or, I ate (some) tiingilar.
vs.
Ni r’epa tiingilar vaal val olaro. I had already eaten the tiingilar when they arrived. (implication: and there was none left)
Ru’pitati. It has been raining. (implication: and it’s now wet)
Tion gar r’epa? Have you eaten yet? (Implication: are you hungry now?)
Perhaps even: Kaysh ru’nari’bat beskar’gam. He’s wearing beskar’gam, lit. “he has put on beskar’gam (and is still wearing it).”
The past tense can also express completion (especially when combined with adjectives):
Kai r’epayc. The food has been eaten up. (Implication: and there’s no food left)
Jetiise droten ru’trattoko. The Republic has fallen.
Tion gar vaabi bic? Did you do it? — Ni vaabi bic, a… I was doing it, but… vs. Ni ru’vaabi bic. I have done it. (Implication: and it is finished.)
Or an experiential sense:
Ni ru’seni. I have flown (I have done it before).
Ni r’akaani, ru’tal’onidi, ru’pir’ekulo par ibic—nu draar ba’slana ni. I have fought, worked my ass off and shed tears for this—I’m not leaving for anything.
Future (ven)
Or technically, posterior or relative future marks events that happen after the frame of reference. In Mando’a, it describes events that will happen in near future or are about to happen; future that’s relevant to the present, immediate, or known to be certain or inevitable.
It is somewhat conflated with inceptive/prospective aspect. The inceptive is the mirror of the perfect aspect: it marks a future event that is relevant to the present moment. In English, the future tense could be translated as “going to”, the inceptive as “start to”, the prospective as “about to”.
Val ven’olaro. They are coming. (Implication: they are already on their way.) / They will come. (Implication: I know they will.)
Ni ven’ba’slan’at bora. I’m about to leave for work. (Implication: so be quick about it because I’m in a hurry.)
Ni ven’kyramu gar. I’m going to kill you. (Implication: and that is a promise.)
Ven’pitati. It is starting to rain. / It will rain (soon). / It’s going to rain (later).
Vaal ni sirbu jii, gar ven’viini. When I say now, you will start running.
The future tense can also be used to express inevitable, natural or logical consequences:
Ca ven’shekemi tuur. Night will follow day.
Distant past (wer)
Something that happened long ago and is no longer relevant; something that used to be true but no longer is; also stories and myths that aren’t necessarily historical facts. Best translated as “long ago”. Rarely used, mostly in some stock expressions and storytelling.
Using wer as a distant past particle (like in wer’cuy) would nicely mirror ret as a distant future. There’s no immediately useful and logical aspect to conflate it with though, so perhaps it’s rare in everyday use.
Wer’cuy. It was ages ago. (Cuyi on it’s own beginning a sentence is translated as “there is…” or “it is…”). Also used in the sense of “once upon a time…” literally “a long time ago there was…”
Ay, ni wer borari ogir. Oh, I worked there ages ago. (Implication: and I no longer do & it’s no longer relevant to the present moment.)
Wer’cuy kih gi’ka. Gi’ka ane kihne be gise o’r ani sho’cye… Once upon a time, there was a tiny little fish. The little fish was the smallest one of all the fish in the entire sea…
Wer’cuy ni bal ner vod hiibi ibic bora—bal iba’bora… Ages ago me and my mate took this job—and what a job it was…
Wer’laar, myth, song of the eons past (lit. “eon-song” or “song of eons”)
Wer’uliik, mythosaur (lit. “long-ago beast”), the long-extinct megafauna of the planet Mandalore
Distant future (ret, re)
Far off, uncertain future; conflated with irrealis mood. Events that might or might not happen or have happened, including the far off future. Conflating these two senses (uncertainty/irrealis and far future) comes from my interpretation of Traviss’s statements about the nomadic mindset of uncertain future and canon expressions like ret’urcye mhi.
Basically mandos consider anything that isn’t imminent to be not written in stone yet. Another way to look at it would be to say they have two future tenses that are differentiated by the certainty of the event happening or the speaker’s degree of belief in it: ven for certain future, ret for uncertain future.
Ret’urcye mhi. Maybe we’ll meet again.
Ni ret slana. Maybe I will go / I could go / I would go / I might go one day.
Mood
Insert some mnemonic about 4 i’s.
Indicative (unmarked)
The unmarked tense that expresses realis mood i.e. things that are real or factual in some way.
Indicative/present tense is also used for expressing general truths:
Par ibic jorbe gar nu kyranu mando’ade, aruetii. For this reason you cannot wipe out Mandalorians, outsider.
Irrealis (ret, re)
Expresses things that aren’t known to be true. Literally “maybe, perhaps”, but can also be translated as might, could, etc. See above.
Ret ni slana. I might go.
Tion’ad ven slana? Who’s going to go? — Ret ni slana. I could go. (Or just ret ni, I could.)
Re’tracyuuri, ret’nu’tracyuuri—nu’baati ni. Shoot or don’t shoot, it’s no concern of mine. (The re’ form would be used before oral stops, I think.)
Imperative (ke, k)
Expresses commands and exhortations. Mando’a uses the direct imperative much more liberally than English—it isn’t considered rude at all.
Ke davaabi ke’gyce rol’eta resol! Execute order sixty-six!
Ke’dinui’ni paak, gedet’ye. Pass me the salt, please.
Direct commands can be very clipped:
Ke’mot! Halt! (lit. “stand!”)
Ke’serim! Take aim! (lit. “be accurate!”)
Ke buy’cese! Helmets on! (lit. “helmets!”)
The imperative can express direct commands, but it can also be used (especially in first/third persons) to express exhortation or jussive mood, similarly to English “let”, “should” or “ought”.
Ke mhi slana. Let’s go. (lit. “let us go”)
Ret mhi ke’slana. Perhaps we should go.
Ke slana, ad’ika! Go on, lad!
It can also be used to express commands to a third person. Formal imperative in third person would be common in written orders & legislation.
Ke kaysh vaabi bic. Have him do it.
Kaysh k’olaro. He should come. / He ought to come.
It’s also used in some subjunctive expressions:
Cuyi jaonyc kaysh ke’vaabi bic. It is important that he do it.
Not entirely sure if it shouldn’t be ke kaysh vaabir bic & cuyi jaonyc kaysh ke’vaabir bic… When exactly should the infinitive/conjugated verb be used is one of those unanswered questions of mine at this point.
Desiderative expressions:
(K’)Oya Mand’alor! Long live the king!
Ke’cin’ciri! Let (it) snow!
And it can be used in conditional if-then statements:
Meh ni mand’alor, ke ni toryc. If I were Mandalore, I would be just. (lit. “I should be just”)
Par cuyir rang, ke’cuyir tracyn. In order for there to be smoke, there has to be a fire.
In questions it could be translated as should:
Tion ni ke’ba’slana? Should I leave?
Fronting the imperative particle usually makes an exhortation:
Ke mhi slana. Let’s go.
Ke mhi gal’gala. Let us drink to that.
Ke kaysh olaro. Let him come.
Interrogative (tion)
Forms questions. Note that the interrogative particle doesn’t affect word order—no need to invert word order like in English.
Tion gar slana? Are you going?
Tion’ad slana? Who’s going?
Tion’vaii gar slana? Where are you going?
Tion’vaabi gar? What are you doing?
Tion’ad gar kyramu? Who did you kill?
Tion’ad nyni gar? Who hit you?
All the examples we have from canon front the interrogative particle, but I wonder if you couldn’t optionally insert it in place of the word it’s replacing in the sentence, like Mandarin does:
Gar slana tion’vaii? You’re going where?
Gar tion’vaabi? or Gar vaabi tion? What are you doing?
Gar kyramu tion’ad? You killed who?
Nominal TAM
And since Mando’a can attach verbal prefixes also to nouns, here are some nominal examples:
Riduur is your spouse, ven’riduur is the person you are going to marry and is understood to refer to a specific person and impending marriage vows. Ret’riduur however would be more like a hypothetical spouse, the person who would be your spouse if you were ever going to marry someone, or perhaps someone you haven’t discussed marriage with yet (and don’t know their answer).
Buir is your parent, dar’buir is the person who is no longer your parent, and wer’buir is your ancestor (one who you’ve never met—if you had personally known them, you’d use ba’buir or even ori’ba’buir instead).

since hes open to feedback im considering talking to james roach about giving jade the justice she deserves after her narrative shafting in act 6 and one-dimensional ooc-ness (and also being a plot device deprived of agency) in the epilogues. if i do im probably going to link to this post……
so james if i sent this to you and you’re reading this, hi! :)
you say, “i want you to know if youre having problems with the story you can come to me with it and i will hear you out”. first of all you are such a good dude and have such a good open honest approach to the fans. i need to get that out there, because i know you’re just as much a fan of these characters and world are we are. secondly, i don’t know what your plans for homestuck beyond canon are, but dave and jade’s poor handling is a problem in both homestuck canon (act 6, even act 5 fucking them over with “tell, don’t show”; see the latter half of section 1 of the post at > Dave: Deploy cloning apparatus. and section 2) and post-canon that has yet to be addressed.
i understand the nuances of making things flow in a story; things that have already been established can’t be simply retconned. i wrote this post knowing that in mind and hopefully working around that into believably timed and justified/needed arcs gives it more potential
jade is a character i care about so much, and many fans also. her dynamic with dave was one of my favorites but the resolution to their separation…is not even really a resolution. it’s hard to talk about one without the other since theyve always been narratively intertwined. or at least jade has
remember how they musically collaborated more than the other kids? (crystalanthemums is their surprisingly tender song dont forget. i saw that the weird troll grub versions of objects make a comeback in the upd8; make music a relevant part of homestuck in-universe again too </3) dave sending her sbahj furry poster in the mail? the first ones to use a collaborative fraymotif in the comic? kringlefucker and conksuck boot? literally collaborating on creating the right seed for the new universe? and then dave died in jade’s arms and they were separated for 3 years and then that never gets touched on because of the retcon and all the other endgame shit going on (and lets be real grimbark jade from before the retcon wasn’t a satisfying reunion either). we get like, a brief exchange of dialogue at the very very end that made you want to see MORE of them after the battle but it. doesnt happen.
and then in the epilogues jade gets warped into this oddly hypersexual ooc one-dimensional character meant to narratively get in the way of davekat and it’s so awkward and uncomfortable for them. and even THEN in meat timeline gets her agency revoked by the narrative with alt calliope. and in candy dave realizes he’s gay (i thought he was explicitly bi? didnt he call jane hot multiple times both pre-and post-retcon, and once call roxy a “choice babe” in pajamas before he knew it was his ectomom?? if you’re actually gay and in denial why would you have these subconscious freudian blunders). and being married to jade gnaws at him because of it which is. unsatisfying i guess and isn’t consistent with dave’s established sexuality…and then he dies leaving his probably concerned wife and becomes a robot. even if the “point” is that the epilogues are metanarrative commentary about storytelling and candy represents the kind of fanfic that goes off the rails with fanservice it doesn’t feel good when i still care about these characters and their established canons. and a lot of people are in the same camp as me regarding this. it’s still an uncomfortable resolution for their relationship
i really want to see jade’s arc overcoming being used as a puppet by the narrative and the space aspect. just some things to think about / consider that have been running through my head: she’s a witch, right? isn’t what she’s supposed to do is actively bend the rules of her aspect? feferi bended the rules of life by asking the horrorterrors to create dream bubbles so the deceased could still sort of “live” which had a massive narrative impact. who exactly determines that being spacebound means you are fated to be passive and alone? the author? alt calliope? how do we know alt calliope can be trusted or if she’s just projecting her experiences as the most passive class possible onto jade, who ironically has an active manipulation class but is forced to be passive for some reason? normal calliope wasn’t right about everything classpect-related either.
ultimately these things are up to you. you’re still the director of course. but i’m speaking to you, as equally caring of these characters as you and everyone on the team, as a hypothetical suggestion or just something to consider for a jade arc: i think it would do such good to jade and the comic as a whole to see her speak to the manager and recognize the power she has and take back the reigns over her own life and dignity. jade is MAD that she had her own possibilities for socialization and agency taken away from her. and with floralmarsupial, my beloved mutual floral who i went to homestuck high together with, i KNOW the potential they possess to write a compelling arc for jade harley. i think everyone knows too lol floral is THE compelling deep jade harley fanwork big name fan. i dont know what we got to lose. with you guys in charge now, and with the last we see of jade in hs^2 (now hs:bc) fighting callie’s influence and advocating for her own agency, really the only way to go from here for jade is up. (assuming she doesn’t permadie of peanut but i doubt that’s going to happen since she’s one of the original kids and it wouldn’t be satisfying storytelling. and it’s homestuck)
this statement so ripe with potential to me ^ and we’re left on a cliffhanger with jade going in this direction
i want jade and dave to be close friends who care about each other a lot and do silly stuff together again. this isn’t even a call to make davejade canon; it doesnt have to be romantic—i dont want a davekat davejade war to break out, you know? i know you’re trying to balance fan demands. but i just loved their dynamic a lot and i MISS it so much, homestuck act 6 didnt give us this and i wish their reunion had more that went into it. we’re past that point though
i want jade and dave to have a talk that’s like old times. something that isn’t awkward as hell or about sexual relations or drama or whos fucking who. just something for the two of them. something that grounds them in what made homestuck so compelling in the first place: character and friendships and these kind of interactions
i want to see them collaborate again. an idea i have is maybe they start a band or something since they’re both musically talented and also live together so they can make stuff together in person now. you’re a music guy you get it. tangle buddies. jam buddies
and maybe something more serious that concerns just the two of them. post-retcon dave never talked to jade about his thoughts when they fought bec noir right? knowing that jade would inevitably kill him with bullets through bec, but he couldnt warn her because he knows she wouldn’t go through with it, creating a doomed timeline? so jade thought all that time she killed him by accident…..what about all that guilt she must harbor? the first person she had in-person contact with since she was probably four years old, her best friend online, and accidentally killed him within just a few hours of meeting him? and never got to talk about it with him, let alone anyone, after three years? hello?? :(
these are the final lines of the last pesterlog between jade and dave before their 3-year separation (and basically all of act 6)
so uh…..this exchange really openly invites some kind of talk to take place even if it’s long overdue. among other things maybe. they need to hug or something. jade’s touch starvation is real, but not everything needs to be sexualized about touch. she’s lonely and starved of affection but i feel like it would be more meaningful if it wasn’t sexualized. just really basic platonic primal cloth mother needs. just like..both being human beings and having basic needs like this that jade’s been deprived of. who’s the person she would feel most comfortable going to? who does she have the richest history with throughout the webcomic? dave, right? her online best friend since childhood that always cared a lot about her? they have stuff to talk about
i feel like that would address the issue people had with jade’s out of left-field promiscuity in the epilogues and even leftovers of it in hs^2. not only do i think primal platonic touch starvation would be a more meaningful and evocative type of interaction to give them at some point, it wouldn’t rock the boat or create any ship drama (davekat has long since sailed and most people seem to be on board with it) and it would probably be really positive representation of these sorts of things which not only throws a bone to aroace people but just depicting this sort of thing normalizes the fact that two people can be close and not necessarily in an official relationship.
this is a good transition point to this post also which is basically an extension to this one. it’s exactly the issues i had. it’s on the nature of what they had going and how much they mean to each other but how the storytelling held them back when it was unnecessary
this breaks my heart. mr. roach and hs:bc writing team please i miss my favorite blorbo duo being happy in each other’s company. they were such good friends but circumstances pulled them apart. i miss when they created music together and talked about their interests and exchanged quips. i am such a well of ideas for stuff like this. show us how much they mean to each other again
if youre still reading this james thanks for hearing me out. if you wanna pass on to the writing team to look at and get their feedback on this i’d be so so thankful
“and to think that after all this he still chose to save her, like always, probably knowing he had little to no chance, just because he cares for her, her life and who she is beyond this moment, really meant a lot for them. i really, really was mad that this would be the last time they would truly ever be together in a way that to me mattered” — vintagegamebro

warning:
ship Peppino/Noisette, do not hit with sneakers
rus: так, только не кидайтесь тапками прошу. да, это шип Пеппино/Нойзетта. вы наверное спросите, почему они вместе, а все просто, Нойза в этой ау не привлекают всякие принцессы и вообще девушки, а вот Пеппино спасает Нойзетту из башни, в которой она сидела и ждала своего "принца". в каноне я этот шип вообще не люблю, да и в принципе я не люблю шипы, кроме Нойз/Нойзетта, так как это лучшая пара в каноне, а в рамках ау мой шип актуален, еще раз повторюсь, в рамках ау, не больше
eng: Okay, just don't throw your slippers, please. Yes, it's ship Peppino/Noisette. you will probably ask why they are together, but everything is simple, Noise in this au is not attracted to all sorts of princesses and girls in general, but Peppino rescues Noisette from the tower in which she was sitting and waiting for her "prince". in the canon, I don't like this ships at all, and in principle I don't like ships, except Noise/Noisette, since this is the best pair in the canon, and within the framework of au, my spike is relevant, once again, within the framework of au, no more

You know, I never parsed Draco to dragon even though I should have. I am going to have to ask Rider later why Sodom's beast is represented by a dragon, he's catholic, so he would know.
NIKITICH: "Sodom's Beast… right, the report said as much. A shame. I would have liked to see such a creature firsthand."
Minor note, Dobrynya Nikitich was also a Christian.
…Though how much varied depending on the source. Speaking strictly historically, DOBRYNYA would have been born during a period of Slavic paganism. However, serving as the voivode the 'Fair Sun' Vladimir recorded him… recorded her as a rather brutal warlord in the name of Christianity. However, the 'Dobrynya Nikitich' recorded as a folk hero was more of a free-spirited adventurer, a Bogatyr that wandered the lands slaying beasts and saving the weak.
The 'Christianization' of Kievan Rus was a long and complicated process, mostly occurring through interactions between the Byzantine Empire and Kievan Rus.
The relevant note here was that clearly, this DOBRYNYA wasn't as steeped in zealotry, and was rather lax about the whole thing, so this seemed to be more in-line with his… her records as a folk hero.
NIKITICH: "Dragons are representations of evil, chaos, trickery… that whole lot. Troublesome things, dragons, zmei, all of them… wouldn't you agree, Sigurd?"
SIGURD: "Fafnir was a beast of avarice, but also wisdom. Conquering them is an important facet in a hero's journey, I would say. But what you gain from it is more important."
NIKITICH: "Mm. That is true."
#thgw story#endless whispers#side note: this is also why she has lines showing admiration to george and martha. because they're dragon-slaying christian saints#or 'taming' in martha's case

Just finished Dark Blue Kiss, and I'm sorry, but who said a soapy show like that was allowed to be a treatise on queer philosophy???
Aof Noppharnach was just like, okay class, today we're gonna talk about the relevance of semiotics to the queer experience, but I'm actually gonna make it relatable and entertaining instead of an incomprehensible academic mess. Right from the character intros, he shows an object to represent a character before panning up to their faces. And then the whole show is about surfaces and surface appearances vs. deeper truth; what we say and do vs. what we mean; the evidence of our true selves we leave in the wake of living life vs. what others make of it. We get references to all these different types of recording and documentation and public announcements but all in the context of what's permissible to share, with whom, and its ramifications. Try counting the number of times an object or an act in concealed by something--mugs inside coolies, post-its inside bags, people behind stall doors, fights beneath blankets, gifts inside boxes.
And DBK just refuses to condemn anyone for not being able to fully manifest their truth for others or capture the essence of something (that latter piece I see in all the possessiveness present in the relationships). Despite that, it still maintains that attempting to craft, depict, explain, and understand representations of feelings, experiences, and relationships (like gay rep, for example)--even if those representations can never be totally true to the thing they are representing--has purpose. The purpose, though, isn't to actually pin down the truth but to be a gesture or sign pointing for others towards the thing you find meaningful.
The final voice-over sums it up beautifully, releasing the series and the audience from being attached to its form. "If you ask me if having a relationship status is necessary, I can't answer that. It depends on each couples readiness and reasons. Love has no form and no rules." To speak or act, make art or commit to someone you love, these are not requirements but they are kinds of blessings that, once made, open doors for new experiences with people who can try to understand what you're trying to express. The beauty is in the trying.
Also, Imma need someone to remix the DBK string theme song with Ru Paul's Superstar ASAP.

Exploration of the now-offline Far Cry 5 official websites
Introduction
I used the Internet Archive, also known as the Wayback Machine, to see what the official Far Cry 5 websites used to look like between May 2017 and February 2020. On or before September 25th, 2020, the site changed and a lot of information about the game and its character disappeared. This is what I was interested in recovering.
In the posts, for convenience, you will see me use the terms “American website” and “European website”. While there were theoretically 19 versions, there were only two different layouts and appearances.
All the available languages and locations, according to the U.S. version.
The “American” layout was used for:
Canada (English & French) - /en-ca/ & /fr-ca/
Mexico - /es-mx/
The U.S. - /en-us/
Brazil - /pt-br/
And the “European” one was for:
Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland (“Nordic English”) - /en-nordic/
France - /fr-fr/
Germany - /de-de/
Italy - /it-it/
The Netherlands - /nl-nl/
Poland - /pl-pl/
Russia - /ru-ru/
Spain - /es-es/
The U.K. - /en-gb/
Australia - /en-au/
The Chinese (/zh-tw/), Arabic (/ar-ar/), Japanese (/ja-jp/), and Korean (/ko-kr/) Far Cry 5 sites were apparently not properly archived, but the ones that most often were and that I recovered all the content from were the U.S. and U.K. versions, which is also why I ended up choosing the generic terms American and European (even though they are not always geographically accurate).
The current Far Cry 5 website, as I’m writing this, is www.ubisoft.com/en-us/game/far-cry/far-cry-5
The old sites I was interested in were far-cry.ubisoft.com/game and far-cry.ubisoft.com/farcry5, and more specifically far-cry.ubisoft.com/game/en-us/, far-cry.ubisoft.com/farcry5/en-us/, far-cry.ubisoft.com/game/en-gb/, far-cry.ubisoft.com/farcry5/en-gb/. To change the language/region, you just have to replace /en-us/ or /en-gb/ with another tag; I included them all in the lists above.
In each post, there will be two parts: Recovered content and Commentary. In the first one, I will post what I found in the archives, and in the second, compare all that information with the final version of Far Cry 5 to see what has changed and what still seems relevant.
I hope you enjoy this series :)
#it’s the eurovision logic australia is in europe now haha#apparently the asian versions had the same layout as europe#but the (few) archives just don’t want to load for me#far cry 5#anyway so this is post number 1#I said there would probably be 'at least 25' last time#and I have... 27 posts!#well 24 parts techically plus this intro and two 'bonus' posts#this was probably the second most demanding 'series' after the audio files#but I’m happy it’s finally done :)

╰┈➤ byr: i revamped this intro in October 2024, so info here may be really outdated if you read it from the future
Hi, I'm bogdasha, I'm 20 and this is my mostly SFW proship blog with random stuff related — discourse posts, fancontent, reblogs, random thoughts, anything basically -✎ I have no dni and I follow&block freely -✎ my DMs are open for anybody, just be respectful -✎ my only boundaries for now are being respectful (again) and not sending me pornographic/fetish content if I don't specify otherwise -✎ sometimes I may post off-topic things, though I don't do it often -✎ I have no posting schedule, I post as I please, but I'm terms of time I prefer posting around 22/10pm UTC -✎ this is my ONLY tumblr blog for now -✎ I'm also a selfshipper and most of my ships are selfships actually, though I have no f/o for now
╰┈➤ basics
Russian, bi and arospec girl, she/her, with severe depression, may be weird in general -✎ furry, multiaesthetic, ex multifandom, proud wannabe and poser in terms of communities and styles, I like small experiments with self expression and I live by them -✎ my english might be bad at times sorry for that in advance
╰┈➤ about me
It's hard for me to tell about my interests in general because they change almost every month and they're shallow -✎ for now (october 2024) my main interests are netsurfing, roblox (mostly catalog avatar creator and roleplays) and jsf (mainly egl) -✎ also for russian speakers, я сижу и участвую в кфкм в телеграме, но не прям активничаю -✎ I used to be in MANY fandoms and have many interests in 2014-2022, to the point I don't remember them all, but my core fandoms were:
Lololoshka and ru Minecraft in general (2013)
How to train your dragon (2014-2015)
FNAF (2014-2016)
Rytp (2015-2016)

Heartbound (2017-2018)
Ddlc (2017-2019)
Danganronpa (2020)
There are more fandoms I was in, these are those that shaped me as a person in a way
I don't care about other discourses, especially here, so I don't participate in or post radqueer lolisho propara/antipara endo/antiendo valid/not valid labels etc stuff, just proship and some off topic
I may have strong or mixed thoughts and feelings about certain things but I don't tend to share them
My taste in music is mostly electronic (I have a more specific taste but I don't care about genre labels much), also some indie stuff and shoegaze
Have this for better reference:
(^ this is relevant for mid 2022 — august 2024 music taste)
I used to love drawing and making handicrafts (especially origami and rainbow loom knits) since childhood!! I barely do any of this now due to my mental state, but those still have my heart
I also wanted to make a list of my ex interests here but I fear it'll be a bit too long for intro post -✎ though who knows, maybe one day... >:3
╰┈➤ F/O and selfship thingies
I hop fast and I find it cool to share f/os with others, I think of sharing as of a way of building and supporting the community -✎ as I mentioned, I have no f/os now and I don't really treat my f/os as partners, I think of them as of crushes I tend to have lots of self-insert fantasies about hehe -✎ also I like drawing myself with f/os and ordering commissions with us, I'm cringe and I'm free idc at this point
My former f/os are:

I have no particular taste in ships, I ship whatever I find appealing which is always random, though I'm not a fan of parent x child and sexually abusive ships, they personally make me uncomfortable -✎ l'm not exclusively a comshipper, default/no taboo ships are loved no less
I think that's all for now, thank you for checking this post hehe :3
