#my art #i'm sorryu if this doesn't eat for you it does for me. #first one is ♀️t*lvas #< maybe it IS the perfect stockholm syndrome pipline because getting treated a miniscule bit nicer than before is getting her excited #i used to think of n*loth as just gay before but i've molded my mind to perfection. he's talvassexual now #i like both equally but ♀️t*lvas x n*loth has a spark of flavor because of the very hyped up nature of a man wanting a woman #u feel me..? U don;t ? oh okay...

RIP, Edith Grossman, giant of translation. This piece is brilliant, and I recommend it to everyone who cares about translation. A few highlights:

[W]hat translators do is that we write—or perhaps rewrite—in language B a work of literature originally composed in language A, hoping that readers of the second language—I mean, of course, readers of the translation—will perceive the text, emotionally and artistically, in a manner that parallels and corresponds to the esthetic experience of its first readers.

Furthermore, a mindless, literalist translation would constitute a serious breach of contract. There isn’t a self-respecting publisher in the world who would not reject a manuscript framed in this way. It is not acceptable, readable, or faithful, as the letters of agreement demand, though it certainly may have its own perverse originality.

And as Ralph Manheim, the great translator from German, so famously said, translators are like actors who speak the lines as the author would if the author could speak English.

#edith grossman #translation #this essay has also sparked a million other thoughts #perhaps i'll post those later #for now #read this #and then go get yourself her translation of don quixote #it's fucking brilliant

are u entering a jon hamm phase?

#my posts #jon hamm #I'M HONESTLY SO FRUSTRATED AND IT'S LIKE...beyond the USUAL frustration that i feel #when i get suckered into an imdb walk for a very Basic Looking White Dilf who happened to turn a key in my brain under a blue moon!!!!! #the thing is that YES i'm going through a H A M M phase and it is COMPLETELY the fault of unpretty's Sorrowful and Immaculate Hearts series #on account of Jon Hamm is their ideal fancast for bruce wayne and honestly it's a GOOD CASTING #but then i remembered that i saw baby driver once upon a time and thought buddy and darling were super hot and now i'm HERE #WATCHING FUKKKKING MAD MEN AND BEING MISERABLE ABOUT IT #it's not that jon hamm is a bad actor - he does a very good job actually! the Emmy was deserved! #it's not even that it's his ONLY good work - he does OTHER WORK and in different genres than '60s drama and he does well! #it's simply that none of jon hamm's work really CLICKS with me in the way I'm looking for when i do an imdb walk #i like to be able to like...ROOT for the character my current fave plays? I like them to be an Empathetic Protagonist? #preferrably in a genre setting and/or with interesting and attractive costuming so I can ooh and ahh? #keanu reeves was GREAT for this. keanu has a lot of suitable Leading Man roles that lent themselves well to imdb walk #but the H A M M -as i have said - seems to EXCLUSIVELY play roles along a very specific spectrum!!! #either he's some kind of Mid to Highly Toxic Masculinity Man who is Handsome (TM) and knows it and is a jerk #or there is Nothing Behind Those Eyes except part of the humor is that it's jon hamm so no one ever like...pegs his himbo characters #the whole point of them seems mostly to laugh at them and never to exploit the appeal of Golden Retriever Boyfriend #it's less of a spectrum than a venn diagram but THE WHOLE THING is that Don Draper is jon hamm's most famous role #and while Mad Men is such an aesthetically pretty show it does NOT SPARK JOY IN ME. EVERYONE IS CYNICAL AND MISERABLE ALL THE TIME #and the rest of the H A M M's filmography seems to be deliberately in reaction to don draper in SOME form #but sadly the reaction never goes to roles that i find the most endearing? WHICH IS SUCH A PETTY COMPLAINT AND MY TASTE IS VERY BAD #BUT LIKE...THAT'S WHY I'M IN DENIAL ABOUT THIS IMDB WALK AND GENERALLY FEELING SAD ABOUT IT

this just in: my cat's taken a liking to Don Quixote

(it does make it kinda hard to fight in Mirror Dungeons when your attention is split between gameplay and headbumps/cuddles though)

#fun fact: she also really likes netzach's ruina battle themes 🤔 #she jumped up and sat next to my phone when i had it playing a few times #limbus company #project moon #limbus company don quixote #spark's cat chloe #spark talks about nothing of relevance #dante and don are cat approved you heard it here first folks
