a reminder to all translators: YOU ARE AN ARTIST!
Translation work *is* art, and it's truly incredible what you do and you touch so many more lives than you realize- and often, those who's lives you touch with your translation work never realize just how much thanks they owe you, but from the bottom of my heart I want you all to know how grateful I am for all people in fandom and outside of it who translate things, those who do it professionally, those who do it for fun, what you do cannot be replaced by a machine, yes maybe it can give a literal translation but it cant really offer any of the human experience or creative choices that actual translators put into things! TO ALL MY BELOVED ANIME AND MANGA LOVING FANS ESPECIALLY i want to remind you to show some love to translators who make it possible for us to enjoy our favorite shows, as well as a special thanks to those who make fan translations of anime openings or things that never recieved an english translation! Pokemon fans you guys should get this especially, remember those guide books that answered so many questions we've had in the west that only got translated thanks to fan efforts and translators who were paid to translate some of the earliest guide books? Naruto fans! If you dont know, but you might, theres also a naruto radio show that theres translations for online that we ONLY have acess to because of fans efforts!
Don't get me started on all the people who make translations and EVEN SING THEM! remember how amazing some of those anime song translations and make them *actually singable?* Don't forget that doing that is a very creative act too! and people who translate fan comics!!!! or fanfictions!!!! please! appreciate them! It takes so much skill to translate the experiences of one culture into another, to make it understandable and meaningful across cultural and language barriers and to make it sound good on top of it all.
Tonight I cried reading an old translation of harmonia, one of my favorite naruto endings, it's 15 years old now, and i used to listen to it and sing it (with the help of that translation) with one of my little sisters, and its one of the only happy memories I have from that time in my childhood.
and so many other magnificent translators filled my childhood with wonder and joy, giving me the meanings of songs that changed my view of the world and helped me cope with hardship, and grow into a person i'm very proud of being.
Thank you, you'll never know just how many lives and hearts you touch. You are loved, you are appreciated, and anyone who thinks your art form can be replaced by a machine doesn't understand language well enough or culture well enough to know just how difficult it really is to capture the essence of someone elses art and I think in many ways, translation is a field where that which we call the soul of an art piece is most tangible, and can be most clearly seen, as it takes human experience and conscious choices based on an actual understanding of the real world and life itself to express that which is human in art. thank you, so so much for all you do.
i could go on for hours, but this is all to say, thank you
and if you THINK you can be replaced by machine translation please just go through an ensemble stars fan comic through google translate its utterly incomprehensible-

My friends, today is a day of mourning. Today we celebrate the life and love of Dead Boy Detectives. Today, we grieve. Today we raise our middle fingers to Netflix and everyone involved in cancelling this show. Today, we weep.
But tomorrow we fight. We continue supporting and loving this show. Keep drawing fanart, keep writing fanfics, keep interacting, keep supporting the actors.
The show may be gone, but in our hearts, in our creations, in our conversations, it still lives. We keep this show going, people. Never stop loving them.
We love you, Dead Boy Detectives. And thanks for being a part of our lives <3

Kwahu is going on a different psycasting path than his adopted twin, aiming for something more akin to a powerful lightning mage than Mechi's technomancy.

We've figured out how to turn off the corrupted obelisk, but we haven't actually turned it off yet. It's been behaving itself so far, and we want to save the shards in case we need them for something else.

We also now have a pet bison named Tequila, so that's nice.

And Randy Random finds it in his heart to smile upon us and gift us a meteorite of solid plasteel. We're going to be swimming in cool mechanoids now!!

William Byers 💛
This character, that is so much more than a character to us. A strong, selfless boy. A boy who went through a lot, who struggled in so many ways, and even so, remained with this beautiful heart and soul. A boy who lights up our lives and exhales magic. Not gonna mention the fact that he gives us the strenght to fight on, but yeah, he does.
We're writing this message to you, because you've done a lot to us, even if you will never know it. You're so loved, so appreciated and so admired by your family, by your friends and also by everyone here.
Thank you, Will Byers. Thank you for being who you are.
We love you.
And we hope this message is a big hug from us, to you.
Happy Birthday!
And thank you for everyone who's here, celebrating this day with us!! This boy deserver the world!!

if there's anything i've learned from the current state of social media it's that this is one of the worst possible notifications you can receive upon opening an app
