#ANOTHER american accent!

"To refute the rule that all crows are black, all you need is one single white one."

"I've never seen a white crow. Have you?"

"Look a bit harder."

Burn Gorman as Benedict Cohen in Red Lights, 2012.

chernobyl (2019) asks the really important questions, such as: what if chernobyl took place in northern england

#they really were like. in order for americans and brits to understand this we gotta make sure the working class is coal miners #every time a guy with a thick northern accent calls another guy with an equally thick accent something extremely russian SEND ME #chernobyl hbo #thoughts

i've been saying "rewatching bly manor would fix me" for months and then i never watched it but i just watched the first episode today and actually i was right. this will fix me

#when the to truly love another person is to accept that work of loving them is worth the pain of losing hits!!!!! #i remember watching this for the first time and hearing victoria's accent was so wild to me??? #i was like oh i dont really hear accents americans at least sound the same to me and then dani had a COMPLETELY different voice than nell?? #but yeah she's the number one babygirl in history and forever my favorite #and like. just seeing the manor??? i'm healed fr i needed this show #watching bly manor

As someone with the most generic American accent possible (which I worked very hard to cultivate because back in the day I didn’t want anyone to know English is my second language because I didn’t understand that’s based of me) I just love all accents that aren’t standard news anchor English. Baby i will be pausing tv shows to say a word I think sounds cool in some regional accent all day every day.

#i am aware that my accent being considered ‘not having an accent’ in America or having ‘a standard American accent’ is itself a thing we #need to unpack but that’s another story for another time #at the end of the day it is a flavorless accent and I love me some seasoning

watching a movie in which a British Actor is the leading man and i did NOT go into this expecting him to speak in an american accent but he opened his mouth to deliver his first line and it was. it was an american accent! and boy oh boy is it THROWING ME for a loop fjsksosdk

#it doesnt usually faze me toooooo bad #but i think having only seen this guy in roles in which he speaks in his normal british accent #AND the fact that he does have stereotypical fucked up british teeth hfjsd it is throwing me BIG TIME that an american accent is coming ou #also his american accent SOUNDS fake #and sort of like another actor but i cant put my finger on who #mack rambles #EDIT: i figured out who he sounds like #he sounds like alan rickman as hans gruber fjdkdkd #which is objectively a terrible american accent #but YEAH HE SOUNDS EXACTLY LIKE THAT #LIKE HES TRYING TOO HARD #ITS. FJSKD BAD.

Intoducing my own TMNT iteration: TMNT MONOCHROME

For this AU, it has past events mixed of the 2003 and 2012, and goofy moments from the other iterations. Also for this AU, I wanted to add the dark turtles from fast forward.

As for Splinter, I keep failing i drawing him T^T but still gonna try if I had the chance. I'm still working on April and Casey for this AU, I also want to add my oc, Nur. So, here's my turtle boys, I'll make a proper reference for them when I have the time

Inspiration for my arts above are below:

#tmnt #tmnt au #tmnt monochrome #coming back from my art rut #and I guess I figured out how krita works now for the 30th time #and yes once again #houseki no kuni is now my main art muse #I love the manga so much don't judge me #next stop is the writing part ugh #I'm trying to write it but writing about the american streets would be the hard part since I'm not american T^T #I'm a bit fine with writing accent but writing the place is another thing #but I'll try anyway when the inspiration kicks in #digital art #artists on tumblr #tmnt 2003 #tmnt 2007 #tmnt 2012

one time i was talking to my american online friends about stuff and i was like "haha yeah people always say i look ambiguously european but cant place what i am specifically" and they were like "i dont think europeans have a look though." what do you mean. you dont believe different ethnic features exist...?

#just was reminded of it lol #one i no longer talk to used to insist that i was british because of my not-british accent and would not believe me when i said #no... i dont live there #id told them i was aussie. they didnt believe me though. like they thought i inexplicably had a brtisih accent despite never #having been there ever #another i said i didnt get a SSCoE for HS but a diploma. thats not what diplomas are here but they kept insisting i was wrong #like i have the certificate....its not a diploma.......... thats not what it says. #but they were like just call it a diploma : / its basically a diploma #i know AU isnt that different to the US but at least we are usually a little less annoying #i did see that asshat who was like 'uhhhh climate change means you dont have snow? not for us australians a-durrrrr X D' or w/e #what a twat. even from a purely selfish perspective we still also have climate change. its very noticeable. come on #anyway for a full decade i basically never met anyone online who wasnt USamerican.................... #so. i do have some amount of frustration. #they got mad at me for saying bikkie or pressie as slang even tho theyre super easy to figure out from context. also it doesnt matter #'STOP using slang you KNOW us americans WONT UNDERSTAND' #we were talking about christmas!?!? pressie is straightforward!?!? even if not...why are you so indignant #on a more awful note i knew one sheila (white) who was like very vocally/performatively into blm #but then one time when i mentioned aboriginal australians she was like 'what...ive never heard of those before...' #youve known me for years even if you never looked at anything in your life ever id definitely mentioned them before #pretty fucking important. both for my country and when caring about indigenous/first nations peoples. oldest surviving culture on earth #but she was like how was i supposed to know about them : / #because i thoguht you cared about these issues!?!?!??!? also just generally ohhh my god #how could you be vaguely aware of AU history as being similar to your own and then say you didnt know we had indigenous peoples #like. what do i even say #do you think... only america has indigenous peoples?????? #its fine not to know a foreign countrys history in depth but just...the absolute basics....about an issue you claim to care about... #sigh. ok this is too long. i feel that last one is justified to complain about tho

People don't understand the tragedy of being irish and not have a semblance of an accent

I've been asked if i was american while on holiday like twice i cant bare it much longer

#ireland #irish accent #im irish #my family is from ireland #i LIVE in ireland and have my entire life #yet my voice is from another fucking continent #I DONT EVEN KNOW MANY AMERICAN PEOPLE!! I KNOW LIKE 2 IRL

It would have been really funny if in the English dub of miraculous, Lila was faking a British accent the whole time

#and then when she’s alone in her room or drops her 2nd identit at the end of collusion she had an American accent #or if when felix comes it he goes #wtf does this girl think she’s up to #like this probably would make no sense plot wise #but I just think it would have been really funny #and just another way for the audience to go “girl what are playing at????’’ #miraculous ladybug #lila rossi #not salt

Linear warfare except when they run at each other they meet in the middle and start passionately kissing each other on the mouth with tongue

#so anyways I watched napoleon #it was good I liked it a lot #the soundtrack was AMAZING it really stood out to me #also I SAW PETER SANDYS CLARKE!!!!!!! #he was at the battle of waterloo he shouted one line of orders and then stood around in the background <333 #(exactly what I was expecting but honestly I was still so excited) #he did amazing and I didn’t even see his character die #anyways the movie opened with a beheading which was insane but I called it and it was so cool #there was another gory bit involving a horse #also all the french people sounded british????? and napoleon was american??? #I get he was played by joaquin phoenix and they want the big name attached to the movie but like come on just hire a french guy #or make him do the accent or something #sorry that’s just a pet peeve of mine #tsar alexander I was fruity as hell so they did a great job with that he was so pretty omg #my favourite parts were the battle of waterloo and the battle of austerlitz so yeah #gonna stop rambling now lmao #watch it if you want it’s kinda long tho

[[ semi-plotted started for @ourcwnside

The Hundred Guineas Club was, if nothing else, somewhere where his 'colleagues' at Torchwood couldn't follow him. And it certainly didn't lessen the appeal that the place was full of wealthy men all interested in a good time. This one in particular, with bright fluffy hair and cream suit, must have especially filthy interests, because he'd never seen him pair up with anyone, and sue him, but Jack was curious.

"Hi there," he said, sliding up next to him at the bar with a wide smile already firmly in place. "I saw your dancing. Very nice. I don't know if I've ever seen someone quite so enthusiastic."

#c. jack #v.jack. torchwood #new thread #ourcwnside. aziraphale #notably jack has an american accent #not from living in america cause he grew up on another planet #but it sounds the same

i think its so funny seeing people say iggy azalea only got hate for being a white girl rapping and not because people were criticising her for putting on a blaccent when she was rapping. by the time she came on to the scene white rappers were not the rarity they were in the late 80s/90s... sure they still get more attention than black ppl BECAUSE they are white rappers to this day but that wasn't the sole reason why ppl didn't like her.... by that time ppl didn't really seem to care about white rappers

#like that was another 'u guys just hate white women' argument ppl wanted to have #like sure there are ppl who dont want white rappers period (I am one of those ppl) but that wasn't the main focus #that woman is from australia rap with ur accent and stop trying to sound like how u think all black Americans sound

[kopimoss]

no but why are there americans coming over here and telling me "I love your accent" fjfhfjsjsjshfhfjs

#i love all of u here but im sorry ai get jumpscared when I hear an american accent #abd why do they act like its the STRANGEST thing that there are.... different accents from them in another country? dhfhdhss #these are all rich white guys buying $$$$$ of wine

[aefensteorrra]

now that I’m at the point with my dissertation where I’m just running experiments on the models I trained I’m having a great time :’) very grateful I got to do this! 

#also very glad it doesn't have to work #because it doesn't entirely work lol #going to train another model in a slightly different way to see what it does then #but rn I'm trying to give a speaker from the south of England an American accent and she simply just. turns into a demon

[daydadahlias]

do you speak any languages other than english??

mf I can barely speak English

#I took Spanish for a long time but I would be a liar if I said I spoke it #my family is so basic American white #I’m from the redneck south #I speak hick #I am the most cracker to ever cracker #I wish I spoke another language #but alas I do not #pigeon #anon #it’s just this country accent and nothin else
