parallels and perpendiculars between the two most important men in angel's life (for better or for worse)

#hazbin hotel #husk #valentino #huskerdust #angelhusk #(implied at least)#if you're wondering why husk is so MINOUCHE here i wanted to emphasise their height difference #husk struggled to read his lines in ep 1 but could spot a guy drugging angel's drink in ep 4 so i think he's farsighted #i think it's very interesting how these two parallel and contrast each other #pretty sure it might even be intentional #sun art

Was reading a very fun article about why English is such an odd language and wanted to share this bit with you

This is really interesting! I also noticed that even when words come from the same language family, German and English often emphasise different syllables like-

tradition

Tradition (my students really struggle with the "-ation" ending in English)

modernity

Modernität

notice

Notiz

unclear

unklar

tragedy

Tragödie

scandalous

skandalös

Sarcophagus

Sarkophag

Japan (eng)

Japan (deut)

Television

television

minister

Minister

automobile

Automobil

congress

Kongress

article

Artikel

(yeah, my trauma/Trauma of 'I learnt a lot of complex/komplex (🎉)English words through reading rather than listening' is shining through here. Like. You can read most of these if you know either language. But it's not all that intutive (intuitiv) how to pronounce them.)

Generally/generell, though I think the key difference/Differenz is that German prefers to stress the penultimate syllable of a word and English likes to stress the first syllable. (Which is why my students love to literally insert syllables towards the end of English words and trip over words like 'prestigious' - because there is no nice, long stressed syllable to take a rest on while racing through all those unstressed syllables.)

(though I also feel like German is a bit more liberal about changing the stress when you feel like it? This might just be me, but I definitely more comfortable changing the stress of a word in German depending on context at least when it comes to additions such as un-, -less/-los, -voll/full, -arm/-reich.)

#I feel like there's definitely a lot of blame to go the vowel shifts and consonant shifts #which shortened/lengthened different parts even of equivalent words (blood vs Blut)#but also I feel like english is generally more comfortable to leave a vowel 'dangling' at the end (-ity; -ly)#while we like to run face-first into our reliably firm final-devoicing wall to know we successfully completed our mission/word #which is I suspect the reason why a lot of German learners of English like to emphasise the -ing in progressive forms

In addition to the 'Jesus, son of a carpenter' post, do you guys ever think about the fact Jesus was but a child who had hopes and dreams? That maybe he wanted to grow up and grow old and be a carpenter just like Joseph?

Just thinking about Jesus, a man, barely twenty, sent to the cross begging divinity for just a little bit longer, knowing it is fruitless, but he still begs because he is human.

You ever think he wanted to hold his mother's hand one more time?

#see the sunrise one more time?#to eat Mary Magdalene's cooking one last time?#I think I can hold the sentiment- along with many other people- that that post put me in a very different perspective on the Christian fait #because the one thing they never did in church school is allow you to emphasise with him #Jesus was human but we never show him as such #he is a sacrificial lamb here to cleanse us all; almighty and benevolent #but he was made *human*#that post allows for empathy and relatability which brings people to acceptance because it allows them to see him for what he was #human #(apologies to my followers for the Jesus posting; I wanted to get this off my chest lol)#christianity tw #!!#jesus christ

In building this rudimentary stone hut, they have attempted to rebuild their childhood, rebuild their love for each other. But Pietro is to make a terribly painful discovery that, in his long and bitter absence, his wounded father actually became a friend to the grownup Bruno, hiking with him in the valley and becoming a quasi-father to him. And, to add to the mortification of having his dad stolen from him by Bruno, Pietro finds that the young woman he is sort of interested in, is more interested in the unassuming Bruno. So poor Pietro leaves all over again, travelling in Nepal and becoming a celebrated writer, but consumed with the thought that his friendship with Bruno was the best of him – and Bruno was in some elemental sense the better man.

This is a movie with air in its lungs and love in its heart. It is spacious and unhurried in its devotion to beauty and to what it means to be human. Bruno is a compelling character who becomes impassioned when talking about the mountains, and it is his tragedy that he ultimately prefers them to human beings. When some of Pietro’s Turin friends come to visit and one starts rhapsodising about “nature”, Bruno snaps contemptuously that “nature” is an abstract idea for city types: he preferns the solid realities of mountains, trees and rivers. This film has mystery and passion, it climbs mountainous heights and rewards you with the opposite of vertigo: a sort of exaltation.

via peter bradshaw for the guardian, emphasis mine

#le otto montagne #here's the other one. btw. its very important to me #the air in its lungs and love in its heart line is on the front of the english dvd release and its TRUE #like thats exactly what the movie is to me . aug #anyway. im good im good im chill #i HAVE posted this article before but i emphasised different parts of it then and also this post is actually formatted

Survivor.

kind of a 'then vs now' comparison (idolhood vs living through everything post-idolhood) but in the same outfit.

the urge to quote "despite everything, it's still you" is very strong right now.

#milgram oc #ocgram #koike yumemi #this is where the creative energy is at today okay besties we're unpacking self-image and self-esteem and the trauma and the baggage and th #it's funny bc by drawing yumemi in a more vulnerable state I am now feeling like an overprotective parent letting my kid out into the world #I cannot tell you how much I love yumemi in all shapes + forms ;w; there's so many idol career designs I haven't even gotten to showing yet #the time difference between these two is the closest though - I'd put it at around... 8-10 months before the present day?? yeah.#is it normal to want to hug your own OC? I'm feeling that right now oough TwT #I can't really explain it but I'm really happy with this piece 💜 I think the vibes are just right yknow #my art #Edit: can't believe I completely blanked about what I wanted to mention asdfghjkl- I want to emphasise yumemi's definition of a 'normal'--#--body is highly distorted. when u spend ur whole life in idol training regimes you forget how fucked up the whole process is.#so for her the changes to her body feel way more dramatic than they actually are... like. she just has a regular body now. but it's not--#-- *her* normal if that makes sense?? anyway. completely forgot to mention this when that was the 1st thing I wanted to say oof

Gonna probably do a slightly feral post tomorrow about RJ and how white male authors get isolated from their historical and especially racial context but also we DEFINITELY do not think enough, in terms of WoT and gender, about the fact that in the late 70s he met and eventually married a divorced single mother a decade older than him, and moved into her family home where they lived happily ever after

#it’s hard to emphasise enough #how differently this would have been perceived in 1981 #and like - in many circles it would not be unexceptionable now #wheel of time #robert jordan

I'll never get native-English speakers who misspell Ghirahim's name as "Girahim." Like. It's written. It's only writeen. That's the only way you know his name. We didn't even get an out-loud pronounciation until Hyrule Warriors.

Fun fact: I found this guy on Youtube years ago, among other things, dissing on Ghirahim in his SkSw review. You wanna know how he pronounced his name?

Jeerahim.

The GIF discourse has nothing on this.

#scrawny rambles #ghirahim #tloz #skyward sword #semi-shitpost #g a w d #i emphasise native english speakers because ghirahim's name has different localisations #many of which eschew the first h #it's just the english speakers i'm baffled about #two guys even did this in their zelda villains ranking video 😭#HIS NAME IS RIGHT THERE #HOW ARE YOU MISSPELLING IT?!?!!?#this has been on my mind for years do what you will

2024 reads / storygraph

The Saint of Bright Doors

a surreal Sri Lankan fantasy about colonialism, revolution, mixing fantasy with the modern world

follows a man raised by his mother to kill his father, a god-like cult leader

but as an adult he puts aside his life of violence and moves to the city for a quiet life

he becomes fascinated with ‘bright doors’ around the city that never open and have no other side, and joins a group studying them to find out more

and a support group for those with divine heritage that becomes increasingly revolutionary, until the task he was made for reemerges and his life upends

#the Saint of Bright Doors #aroaessidhe 2024 reads #this is kind of hard to explain I dont know if I did a very good job here lol #it is weird and full of so many interesting elements. I’m still not entirely sure how I feel about it but?? I really liked it mostly???#It starts pretty small scale focused on the MC & slowly unravels the wider worldbuilding and narrative elements in a really interesting way #The first chapter or two I assumed it was typical high fantasy but then it’s like. oh this is a modern city. with emails and stuff.#The pacing is a bit weird - it’s quite meandering and also pivots significantly in the second half. tbh I’m still ????? about the ending lm #but also I am happy to float through on vibes.#and there’s some elements (like the doors that become….not that relevant) that I want to know more about. (as an aside - I saw someone say #that it’s a very clear retelling about Buddha’s son? which idk enough about but probably could give a deeper context to a lot of it)#writing style is kinda detached from the MC but also there is a reason for this that makes sense with the twist near the end!#which is a kind of twist i LOVE. Maybe I wish it had been emphasised a bit more over the story though? unsure.#I thought his mother's story was interesting also - you think she's an terrible parent just there for background context at the start but #then when she tells her story it's like ohh there's more context here.#also I hesitate to just say ‘if you like the spear cuts-- you should read this’ because I think the elements that are similar are done in a #kinda different way and might disappoint you if you’re expecting it to be the same as spear….but regardless the sort of dreamy writing #rich world; narrative with fantasy but also modern day elements; some of the writing style; mlm MC (tho not a romance)#idk. it will definitely not work for everyone but I enjoyed it overall #also it is full of queerness #bisexual books

thinking abt yaz and her doctor-master qualities and you know how the doctors #1 coping mechanism is flight bc theyre scared of the things they do when they fight? yaz doesnt have that. the master doesnt have that

#'the master isnt afraid of their anger' should be obvious?? probably??? i mean Look At Them hgkjfhgkj #but i hadnt really realised or put that into words. but it explains a lot. a lot of how they interact too i think #and with yaz too i love writing yaz #esp yaz upset #her doctor-master qualities are such a nice balance #more fun than writing either of them #but this especially is such a fun thing to play with with yaz and 14 #like the fighting vs fleeing #on top of all the other contradictions #they lived for so long being so similar #in circumstances that emphasised how similar they were #and now the circumstances are highlighting their differences #their main thing in common now is their history #which feels like such a betrayal to yaz

Here’s an example of the disconnect between online americans and real life americans

Online americans apparently go on tiktok en masse and complain about there being no water in europe, how european do not drink water, and Europe is a country continent where everyone only drinks 25€ bottled water

I’ve had dozens and dozens of clients ask where public fountains are because they are aware they exist but they’ve not seen them (they’re discreet), ask me if tap water is safe, and ask me how to order water at a restaurant in a way that does not imply a bottle of water. They were all very understanding and accepted my answers. No one assumed anything. They just fucking asked.

#I really cannot emphasise enough how the stereotype of americans exists only online #and like maybe over there too in like florida or some shit idk #but the ones travelling are not like that #yeah ive had some dumb fucks but i mean ive had dumb fucks from every country so whatever #but this is the main difference #travelling americans just ask #they just ask anything #and like #yeah man ask thats why im here
