good evening to those who think vanilla flavoured foods aren't boring, are prone to nosebleeds, pride themselves on their ability to pack suitcases, bake, read fantasy novels, cry over kind hearted characters, prefer platonic love to romantic love, enjoy heart-wrenching books, think fifteen was the worst age, are easily satisfied with films that have nice cinematography, love colder weather, are cheese eaters, and those whose love language is quality time

Hello yes hi, my husband and I binge watched moral orel the other day and I can't believe that I missed out on such a treasure of a comedy. The #moraloral tag feeds my soul more than I thought it would. Adult swim can go suck ass for cutting moral orel short, for real.

Auto-translate features that let me read and explore and use websites that aren't really intended for English users are great and awesome and I love them but if I could code (or. Translate.) I would write an add-on that also translates all of my English into the website's dominant language so that I could search for things without first spending an hour and a half on various translation websites trying to figure out how to word what it is I'm looking for.

... This is specifically about the various social media sites where people of other cultures post their gorgeous art and fashion and other creations that I cannot see because my stupid American ass can't figure out how to properly use the search features.

I was reading a bunch of DPXDC stuff on here and AO3 with Ghost King Danny, and thinking about how people wrote when he spoke if it wasn’t hear-able to human ears or a different languages and that got me thinking - what would that sound like? Then my brain did some braining and thought - wouldn’t it be cool if it was just all languages overlapping? Like “Who goes there” in English, but at the same time every known and unknown language (or just the dead ones, since he *is* the Ghost King) at the exact same time with the translation. That would support the whole ‘super hard/impossible to translate’ because it could change every time depending on what languages or sounds are enunciated more.

Add in the fact that logically, the vast majority of gods would not just speak the language you know or maybe even the most commonly used, this kinda makes sense? Well, not really, but who cares. As a wise author once stated, “canon is a sandbox and I am the lightning which will shape it to glass” or smth like that. Also, anyone who dies instinctively knows how to understand the language(s) so they can understand their king (as Ghosts). So now I’m just imagining a situation like this (forgive me, I don’t know how to bold or italics or anything on tumblr I’m new):

Constantine, furiously flipping through translations book after translation book of paranormal languages and not finding anything on God speak: “Bloody hell, where is it!”

Danny, who just got summoned by some cult/to save the world/for some other reason and has crazy social anxiety but needs some kind of ‘sacrifice’ to make the summoning legal or else do a bunch of paperwork, thinking: *Can I just ask for a sacrifice? Would that be rude?*

Danny, Awkwardly: “I need a sacrifice before I can leave. Just like a rock will do. I don’t like paperwork.”

Constantine, attempting to translate, gesturing vaguely and panicked as he continue to flip through book after book: “It’s saying that it needs a sacrifice in Kevlar**, something about a crystal, and Korea?*** I think it wants Black Bat as a sacrifice?

Jason: *Cackling* How did you translate that so badly?

**Sacrifice in Hmong is Kev txi

***Paperwork in Acoli is “Karatac”, also I know Cass is Chinese not Korean but for the sake of this Constantine does not and/or assumes that the Ghost King can’t tell

Or, Jason randomly discovering that he can understand any language now. Just not speak it.

In conclusion, I have now decided that whenever a god speaks it is representative of all those who have ever entered their domain or presence, and because mortals are not capable of understanding the complexities and beauties of language, they will never understand.

…crap, now I want to write a tragedy or essay or poem or something about the symbolism

TLDR: God language is just all languages overlapping at once, scenario, and author having a mental breakdown over ELA and this being much longer than expected

And yet, you toil still in service to men. Your father, your husband, your son. You desire not to be free, but to make a window in the wall of your prison. Have you never imagined yourself on the Iron Throne?

If you tag your posts with random unrelated crap I am absolutely going to report you for spam. Why tf is a screenshot of a "funny" tweet (with the name or the person who actually made the tweet cropped out) in the Street Fashion tag. Why is it in the Alt Fashion tag. Why is it tagged as Gothgoth, NuGoth and Pastel Goth. Shut the fuck up. Go away.
