Think about it like this. This ICE agent was on camera and unmasked — fulfilling one of three "demands" Democratic leader Chuck Schumer just issued in order to agree to save Republicans and give DHS even more money. And he was still threatening to kill someone.

i bought two fish ties and a yuri sticker. meow.

For the remainder of the year, I will be sending 100% of received personal commission funds to PIRC (Portland Immigrant Rights Coalition). This is not a decision made lightly, as I live paycheck to paycheck from my dayjob, but a min. sacrifice on my part nonetheless. u can read about them here:

forgot to post this but acquired more books

every discussion about genAI "translations" that involves people justifying/normalising the use of it makes me so fucking mad. i have spent four hours editing ONE PAGE of a novella. 🫠🫠🫠

my head is killing me oh my god

i know someone who posts about final fantasy 15 but when abbreviated as ff15 my league of legends adc main contaminated brain thinks we're forfeiting at 15 mins

i went to pick up my medication yesterday and i was told the cost was $2,400. i almost laughed. now im waiting on my insurance company to give me prior authorisation so the cost turns into $15. what a joke.

debating what to read next... kobo abe or han kang...? aghh my head started hurting again, maybe i should take a break

finished "no longer human" by osamu dazai, translated by donald keene. i overall felt nothing, but perhaps i'm just in a stage where im not receptive enough to this patheticness. nonetheless, a worthwhile read. looking forward to david boyd's translation releasing in a few months

i currently have 12 books checked out (it's fine it's fine i can finish them all in 19 days)

red bean buns......

the DOG translation is going well! (github thankfully has dark themes available so my eyes aren't miserable)

i bought a reading light with warmer lights in hopes that it'll be easier on my eyes aka less pain in head 🦭🦭🦭

oh wait i don't think i've talked abt this here but ive had daily migraines for over two months now LOL (saw a new IM doctor today who wants to explore various routes neurology hasn't which is exciting, but also need insurance to approve my mra)

took him outside

bobbu translation megathread

do not watch the spongebob 2025 movie it is awful the plot the pacing is just so bad arghhhh

i fainted today and had a really nice conversation with the floor (i fell face forward)

i finished reading "the setting sun" by osamu dazai, translated by donald keene. i am attempting to immerse myself in dazai's works because of qiu miaojin. i think i understand a bit more now. my head hurts and i need to blow my nose

i have a total of 14 book requests from the library (two of which i'm gonna pick up tomorrow, the rest are in transit or pending bc waitlist) 🦭 i might not be able to read things on screens (white background black text hurts really badly) but physical copies still are ok! (kinda)

why did i pick a thesis topic that requires me to look at my screen for prolonged periods of time (i did not foresee the 2.5 month debilitating headache). anyways my head hurts again wahhhh 😔😔😔

finished reading "three streets" by yoko tawada, translated from the japanese by margaret mitsutani. fascinating, just fascinating. would recommend this

yearning for the day ellipsus adds footnotes so i can fully switch over

i love the boba shop i go to because 1. they know me and my order(s) 2. their drinks are 🔥🔥🔥 i love their fruit teas (made with real fruit) 3. they have charging outlets & wifi and 4. they do not play any music at all

i find myself falling more and more in love with yoko tawada's works
