Hell yeah

DMed you >:3

I need to stop expecting things from people who make a living off their personalities

Joking for the entire episode about how scared you are of losing your job is only funny and not pathetic if you aren't simultaneously completely bending the knee for fear of your job. Lol.

The good news is that almost every patreon comment on that one podcast episode last week is "what the fuck are you people talking about"

...well, I said that, but my curent basket is worth almost $100 lol. Trying to convince myself to let go of some >_< they all look real good though is the thing.

My cap is 50 AUD bc I’m a little short of cash currently, so I need to pick very carefully! I’m eyeing the Trakhanov too!

What's everyone getting from SBCF?

I haven’t! I hated Siddhartha so much I put off reading any other Hesse lol but I’m reading Narziss and Goldmund currently

In case you're wondering, my longform WIP is also about the relationship between a neurotic high-performing jerk and a divinely lovely curly-haired love interest who he obsesses over.

This is because the song "From Now On We Are Enemies" came up in my shuffle just now and I hadn't listened to it for years so I hadn't realised it was literally just about Salieri being in love with Mozart... Pete Wentz understands me.

I'm a big fan of melodrama about how you need to kill the most special person alive because you can't bear how beautiful they are

When I'm stressed out I retreat into my mind palace and think about how Amadeus and The Heart of Thomas are the same story

Got some film developed recently >:)

The last show to air which I worked on didn’t mention us in the credits at all…only the studio…at which we were self employed contractors not on the payroll 🫣

pardon?

I hadn’t heard of Ebisu Yoshikazu, thank you for the rec!

No tbh I think you’re right, esp with #1 when it comes to language hobbyists on reddit haha. I need to remind myself I do other things too

that's a great idea! I feel like it'd be difficult to find greeks online enough to be looking for language learning partners in other countries who don't already speak english lol but that might be confirmation bias, since definitionally I only know greeks who speak english anyway

I can't afford any more paid tutoring and asking Greeks to patiently help me muddle through a half hour conversation for free is simply unfair

Watching this guy on Youtube who learned Welsh to a B2 level in 2 years just because. My teacher told me it takes at least 2 years to get from A2 to B1 IF you do at least an hour of work 7 days a week!?

Who has the time?? Literally how is it possible??

Polyglots are cool but also make me feel so bad about myself. I do Greek class 5 hours and 2 paid conversation sessions in a week, I feel like I'm putting in so much work, but any struggles along the way and it's like "well duh, you need to be doing at least 90 minutes of independent study a day"

a failure specific to certain kinds of illustration that are common among animators lol - like, concept art and children's illustration, popular comics, etc. It would be as incoherent to apply to a Clamp comic as to like, Michael Deforge

and as symbols of goodness, cuteness, purity or whatever which is I think an interest that both of us have in common, the line itself, and work that comes close to it on each side. Idk if it's a true or helpful delineation but I think of the sort of stuff I'm talking about as -
