🧵 Putting together a thread of resources (ideally courses) for learning various languages. It's going to be Eurocentric at first, as I have more of those and also those tend to be free - outside Europe, and the resources tend not to exist (a least not for Anglophones):

⛰️山海経19: 鶉鳥。鳳凰の一種らしいのですが、字面と中国語発音のチュンチュン感がえらいcuteなのでウズラにしました。ウズラもキジ科なので鳳凰の近縁と言って良かろう。
🌊Shanhai jing 19: Chun-niao, the symbol of the emperor’s ritual tools and clothes. It seems they’re a kind of phoenix, but its kanji, 鶉 means Quail. Their name sounds so cute.

15羽め：䴅(Fen)。白い体に赤い羽根を持つ、6本足のカササギに似た鳥。とてもうるさい。イラストでは首や胸にタンバリンのような器官を加えて、より騒々しい鳥にしてみました。光り物を集めてじゃらじゃら言わせたり、木魚のような木の実を振り回して騒がしくするのも好き(これも自分設定)。

🌊Shanhai jing 15: Fen, the six-legged noisy magpie with a white body and a red tail. The description doesn’t mention their head, so I felt I should add some to let them be noisier.

do you know WHY actors and athletes are so well compensated today that it’s hard to look at them as “labor”
because they organized and negotiated for it
because they organized and negotiated for it
beyond just being wrong on the merits, the thing that bugs me about people dismissing actors and athletes as labor is that, historically, they’ve been at the forefront of a lot of labor victories that have helped labor more broadly

i think if the democrats had dug in their heels and said "this is the epstein shutdown. trump is starving the country because he doesn't want the epstein files to come out" they probably could have ended him. so it was very kind of them to not do that

hey i don’t usually make posts like these but i see a certain comic artist has made their way here, you might know him from his “daily life of a gay couple” comics, but he made this horribly transphobic comic and threw a temper tantrum when people called him out for it a while back, so look out

Hi, apparently an account on steam is impersonating me and randomly adding my friends to try and scam them. Can you please go report them for impersonation? Thank you. (steamcommunity.com/profiles/765...)

I never thought I'd join a political party but, after Zack giving us hope that the UK can be run for the benefit of all, I decided I had to throw my (extremely light) weight behind the Greens.
If you want the UK to be for everyone and not just billionaires why not join too?
