In today’s linguistics class we talked about metaphors, and we really want two of the ones we talked about to become conventionalised.
So first of all this one girl told us about a newer metaphor in Russian, “I have paws”, which is something you say when you don’t really want to do something, so you say you’re incapable of doing it since you have paws instead of hands. Like, “hey, finish that report” “aw but I have paws :(” and I think that’s adorable. It’s like “I’m just a girl” but for animals.
We also had the task to invent a novel metaphor and have the others guess what it means, and the teacher really liked my “she’s such a capybara” = “everyone loves her”. Capybara energy is like golden retriever energy except you’re chill about it. You’re just vibing and everyone digs that.
Anyway I think these deserve to become more common in English
“You’ve grown old Daniel”. Cut the cameras, deadass. They saved each other😭. This Danlou shit is important to me.
daniel and louis uncovering the fact that louis was daniel’s guardian angel absolutely floors me. it’s yet another way that daniel is a parallel to claudia. claudia called louis an angel and louis led her to her death. louis acted as daniel’s angel and daniel was able to grow old. it’s such a redeeming moment for louis, who has grown accustomed to believing he destroys every life he touches.
While the producer is part of Hollywood’s most powerful creative partnership-and a driving force behind #Sinners making it to the screen-she isn’t interested in the spotlight for spotlight’s sake.
In a rare interview, Coogler opens up about producing an Oscar frontrunner, the early days of her and Ryan’s creative partnership, and what’s to come.
