Taking up Japanese as a side project for myself has reminded me of something.

So like a long time ago I had a professor that I absolutely adored. She happened to be Japanese American. She grew up speaking Japanese at home but never really spent a lot of time in Japan. She mostly spoke with other Japanese Americans and read books.

So one day early in her teaching career there’s an exchange student from Japan who’s having a hard time understanding a concept so she explained it to him in Japanese and then he looked absolutely rattled. Like in shock. Pale.

This is how she learned that the way she speaks Japanese makes her sound like a gang member.

Japanese doesn’t exactly have cuss words in the same way as English does but imagine that the nicest professor you’ve ever had pulls your paper over and says “Okay listen here you little piece of shit I’m gonna fucking explain this to you. Violently.”

While Harrow could be nonchalant about sex I think it’s also funny if Harrow was super sexually repressed and therefore had Christian housewife style sex fantasies.

Her diary at sixteen has no less then Four kidnapping scenarios where a Hot Butch takes her hostage. Space pirates, arranged marriages. She is getting off this rock and she is getting her rocks off in that order. Don’t you see she has to leave with this hot butch who is Not based on Nav. She has to be ritually sacrificed to this great evil who then uses her for sexy reasons. There’s only one bed what else was she to do?

it is. sincerely really weird that 2016 nostalgia is a trend. like i knew this day would come but not for specifically 2016. the meme that year was about how this was the worst year ever for most people

My brother made this comic and thought it should be shared.

at the risk of being cringe with everything going on — this week, the last six months, the past five years — i keep thinking about that one quote from the great gatsby

“they were careless people…they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.”

it’s just every day now, huh.

Gideon Nav fanart!

ianthe and palamedes are inverses in that for an insane person ianthe is actually remarkably normal whereas for a relatively normal guy palamedes is just completely out of his mind

comic that appeared to me as I was waking up from a dream

it's the look of betrayal on both the father's and the baby's faces that sell it.
