I grew up reading Calvin & Hobbes, and one of my favorite running jokes was the snowmen that Calvin would build.

here’s the short film i made in 48 hours for the cardiff quickdraw animation challenge! the theme this year was childhood and the idea was based on a true story from one of my earliest memories

i love doing these so much, it’s really cool to see what we can come up with in 2 days it’s been awesome to see my improvement over the last 4 years i’ve taken part in these challenges!

my lovely bf edited it together and my wonderful friend @/toxolotl helped out with extra background bits and lots of good advice

Oh good, now I have a cheat sheet for Uncensored Nate

I’ve narrowed it down to these three top reasons OP should be allowed to commit arson

Walking around with this sheet in hand and pointedly taking it out and methodically searching through it every time I want to say something

This is killing me.

Excuse me, sir, has to be my favorite of the list

google translate defaulting to chinese at first

okay but for those of us with interests in both the murderbot and the daomu biji fandoms this is kinda hilarious

(english-side-only really, i get that the kanji and hanzi are completely different)

our good (air)ship murderbot! thanks google

I love reading about these kind of translation decisions.

I’ve only ever seen 弊 used to refer to one’s company: 弊社, as the article says.

I’ve been told 弊 is used to refer to one’s own something, and it has a very humble nuance.

So 弊機 translates to something like “I, your humble machine” or “I, who am but a mere machine”.

Japanese is great that it can say so much with simple pronouns.

Romance language translator: well we don’t have a gender neutral pronoun so I guess we’ll flip a coin for male or female

Japanese language translator, an intellectual: none of Japanese’s 30-something plus personal pronoun options have the perfect vibes so I’ll create a new one to bring that special somethin’

What I found to be particularly clever about the coining of this very unique first person pronoun 弊機 (heiki) is that it’s a homophone of 兵器(heiki), meaning ‘weapon’

This is probably my favorite image of all time I first saw it years ago and it has stuck in my head since then. The only vibes I’ll ever need

This has the same cuteness overload vibes as this:

baby chicks and penguins

gotta add Baby Yaga to this post it’s important (x)

[ID: The photos are all of tiny, bundled-up babies in snowy landscapes. I cannot explain to you how bundled they are. They look like small adorable lumps of fur and fabric with clueless little faces. They’re so short and so round. End ID.]
