okay I just found out that Meowth’s Japanese name is Nyasu and LET ME TELL YOU WHY I’M SO EXCITED ABOUT THAT

so, phonetic transpositions are commonplace, right? You adapt the sounds of one language to the phonetics of another and vice versa, it’s used in translation and transliteration, where a lot of original meaning is lost in the process.

BUT Nyasu<=>Meowth is a phonetic transposition, a transliteration, and a direct translation at the same time! Meow and Nya are both established words that mean the same thing: the noise a cat makes. And ス (su) is how θ̼ (voiceless ‘th’) is adapted to Japanese phonetics.

I just found it extremely cool and now I’m wondering about other words like it.

Wait what’s the situation with Oxford and Cambridge? I know the dates had to be moved because they were outside of term time for the unis there so no point doing it when there were no students but… isn’t that Dan’s teams fault?? Not the promoters?? Im not sure how it works so please explain to me because surely there’s a bit of collective responsibility there. Like multiple, interconnecting failures have occurred over the course of the tour

considering how small Dan's team was (3 managers that actually could make decisions, but also had other clients as well (correct me if i'm wrong though!)) i'm almost sure booking was on promoters. also because they were the ones who suggested moving the shows to February and "they've decided to do this" in the beginning of September. even if Dan's managers were involved in making calls (reaching out to the venues) and signing papers, etc., etc, it's kinda promoter's job to look at the list of dates and think about how you as a promoter are gonna handle each show for them to sell out. and if you see that something isn't adding up (September and uni terms) you have to stop this at the stage of development and NOT after everything is already approved, printed, and went to sales, and after people started complaining. it's not Dan's job to look at the calendar and think what months are better for what shows. he is paying others to do that. anyways.

my main problem was the time it was told and how it was told. Dan told us about it on Sept 4th, in a liveshow. the Oxford show was initially booked for Sept 13th, Cambridge for Sept 22th. so 8-9 days to change your plans, basically. it got worse though. people had to wait for official emails for another 2 days, and those emails didn't even have the text written correctly ("the show has been rescheduled to Saturday 11th 2023" Saturday 11th of what, bro?). and i'm 99% sure it's not AXS providing texts for the emails they send. so it's either the promoter (AEG) or Dan's managers were taking so long and still fucked up. and i'd bet on promoters, otherwise why are they even getting paid? there's a chain of people these things should go through to be approved and posted/sent. and promoters are 100% involved in these approvals. but for some reason there's always something done wrong in communication and in marketing. the promoter communicates with people (us) and makes decisions related to the shows, we saw that clearly during the Auckland show. so they are very much responsible for rescheduled and therefore booked shows. and for cancelled shows. i'm not saying Dan's managers were innocent during the tour, far from it. but why would Dan need promoters if his managers could do the job? bruh.

Hiii hello

I had an idea for a project (inspired by welcome home!)

This little guy, covered in stickers, is the main character!

He is a teacher that works with elementary school students ^^

He is very energetic and loves learning/teaching new skills :3

(He's still nameless, but the arg is called Sunshine Funtime!)

#i wanna try making an arg myself :3 #i have some ideas ^^ #oh btw #he gives you stickers for correct answers!! #arg #welcome home #welcome home arg #original character #character design #oc #art #digital art #paint tool sai #puppet #sunshine funtime

...at least that's the link order that made most sense to me

[Image ID:

Clownillustrations' Welcome Home fanart. Wally Darling is drawn at an angle slightly from below, lacking his mouth, and the eyes wide open and bright white looking the viewer. In front of him, along his height through the middle of his face, a long stripe made of the blurry Welcome Home website screenshots, glowing. Behind him is a vinyl record with a plain red label.

The background is littered with text, a wall of repeating "Let me in." from top to bottom to the left of the image, Wally's dialogue behind him, and the text on the foreground, slightly corrupted, says "I will help you understand neighbor I will find a way soon"

End ID]

#welcome home #welcome home wally #welcome home fanart #wally darling #welcome home wally darling #welcome home update #welcome home spoilers #wh spoilers #wh update #got this out of my system............ #i am correct about the word order dont @ me /joke #eye contact #scopophobia #cw eye contact #cw scopophobia #repetition #cw repetition #cw repeating words #additional tag ramble: i saw a word order that puts 'neighbor' at the end and i Respectfully Disagree. it makes far more sense for Home to #respond after wally literally says 'you can hear mine (my Home)'. like home even says Hello to you

Is there anything special people in Ukraine do to celebrate New Years?

I can talk about the decorated tree and "Did Moroz and Snihurochka" that come at midnight to leave presents under the tree since it is what modern ukrainians usually do for the New Year celebration

日本語の日記 2月24日2023年

皆さんこんにちは！初めて日記を書いています！４年間日本語を勉強しています。でも、初年度と今年はあまり勉強しませんでした。大学で日本語の授業を取って、たくさん勉強しました。今は、大学を卒業して、授業を取らないので、ちょっと怠け者になります。とても恥ずかしい。だから、毎日日記を書くことにしています！私はちょっと恥ずかしがり屋なので、新しい人々と話すのが苦手です。後ほど、新しい人々と話してみたいです！でも、初めは毎日たくさん勉強して日記を書きます。

(translation, I hope)

Hello everyone! This is my first time writing a diary! I have been studying Japanese for 4 years. But, my first year and this year I haven’t studied very much. I took Japanese classes in college, and studied a lot. Now I have graduated from college, and I am a bit lazy because I am not taking any classes. It’s very embarrassing. So, I've decided that I will write in a diary every day. I am a little shy, so I am not comfortable talking to new people. Later on I want to try talking to new people! But first, every day I will study a lot and write in my diary.

Afternoon anyone reading! I’ve been studying Japanese on and off for a while now, and have been looking for new ways to try and enjoy practicing. The biggest recommendation everywhere is also to talk to people, but I’m not the most comfortable doing that. Even in my classes I struggled to talk in Japanese, as I was worried about embarrassing myself by not knowing what to say, or pronouncing something wrong. Which is… pretty dumb honestly, but nerves are nerves. That being said, I still need to practice! So I was looking for other ways, and a language diary popped up. I hope to one day reach a level where I don’t have to add this paragraph in English at the bottom, and I can write my thoughts and start conversations all in Japanese. But until then, I’ll add the thoughts I don’t know how to say at the bottom as add-ons, or separate posts for some conversation (maybe, we’ll see how my confidence stands). Anyways, I really hope that anyone with the knowledge can add some corrections or add better ways I can phrase things. And for those that don’t, I hope you still comment so we can practice writing with each other! (Or you can comment in English so we can discuss stuff if neither of us know the words or grammar yet.) I don’t think many people will read this, but this is mostly for me anyways, some accountability if you would. And if anyone else has a Japanese Language Diary on here, I hope we can connect and learn from each other! I think I’ll write an introduction post for tomorrow's entry, and after that, well we’ll see what I write. Hopefully less and less in English!
