circii | Reading

It's a bunch of stuff I've written in Spanish and Japanese for practice. A lot of these are from the same set of questions where I alternated which language I answered in for each one, so they seem (and are!) interconnected -- but for ease of reading, I separated them by language rather than chronological order.

Semi-irrelevant, but concerning the title of this entry among other things: I know the difference in standard English between was and were. But I don't like it. My dialect barely ever using "were" just sounds better to me, so don't bother correcting me on this... or much else regarding English grammar, unless you're a genuine AAVE speaker and know for sure I made a mistake. You should totally correct my Spanish and Japanese though!

I may need to start putting the post up on Fridays. I'm started volunteering on Saturdary mornings and it wipes me out for most of the day.

What are you working on? What have you finished? What do you need encouragement on?

Are there any cool events or challenges happening that you want to hype?

What do you just want to talk about?

What have you been watching or reading?

Chores and other not-fun things count!

Remember to encourage other commenters and we have a discord where we can do work-alongs and chat, linked in the sticky

Anyone here order some Thursday Recs?

Do you have a rec for this week? Just reply to this post with something queer or queer-adjacent (such as, soap made by a queer person that isn't necessarily queer themed) that you'd, well, recommend. Self-recs are welcome, as are recs for fandom-related content!

Or have you tried something that's been recced here? Do you have your own report to share about it? I'd love to hear about it!

i know it's best for him to have as few tethers as possible for story purposes, but it's so weird sasuke doesn't seem to have any guardian(s) he's abandoned by leaving the leaf village. maybe he seemed old enough to take care of himself when he was 12/13, but when he was little? i dont know how old he was -- maybe 7 or 8...? i'm not sure third graders can take care of themselves? (but i'm having trouble thinking of what they neeeeed adults for... if there's a microwave food is handled, so... hm....)

learned a new thing
暁 (akatsuki) means dawn/daybreak, as we all know, but also can be used like this:

2. event (e.g. "in the event of ..."), occasion, occurrence

usu. as 〜の暁に

kind of beautiful if you ask me. i will make sure i overuse this 👍🏾

1. after watching kids stare at the sports channel blankly and then go do something else after i hand them the tv remote, i have finally realized that these newgens have no concept of channelsurfing; possibly no concept of tv channels in general. she took the netflix in the divorce tho so i'm pretty sure no one in this house has a sub to any streaming service (made this meme immediately after typing that. you're welcome)

2. i think youtube is the reason this kid narrates and reacts to everything she does while playing games.... damned streamers... i dont know how common it is since this is the only kid i watch that's old enough to play video games. it's irking me bad but i know it's normal to her 💔 telling her to be quiet would probably be like telling her to stop her heart from beating 💔💔

I watched episodes 127-143 of Shippuden recently. I thought... a lot of stuff about it. But it's also the start of August, and I have been thinking of doing media check-ins or something since I'm not the best at liveblogging stuff on DW (and I refuse to use Bluesky or Fedi for it). I'm going to call them art check-ins though, because I'm enjoying art, not consuming media. I'm also pretentious, probably. If I try to remember to do these at the middle and end/start of each month, that's probably good enough.

I'd liveblog more too, but it seems I always watch the best Shippuden episodes with Mikki, and I don't want to liveblog both with my mouth AND fingers on the keyboard... well, she knows what episodes are best, so rather than it being a coincidence it's more likely she asks to join me when cool stuff happens and leaves me alone during the boring parts. ANYWays,

Harukanaru Toki no Naka de 2

... I dropped that shit xD I feel bad for it, but I'll come back for it later. I won't allow myself to play the third game (allegedly the best game) without beating one route of the second. It's just that...

Okay, one, the character designs are too similar to the ones in the first game, as if they were too scared to make them look different. But like. Why? I don't understand where this fear would come from.

Maybe you can't tell without me drawing lines connecting who is related to who, but yea. Every guardian looks pretty much just like whoever had his role in the previous game, except the purple/navy blue guy. Their personalites aren't all that different either. Their lives are different (ex. The teal guy was a nobleman but here he's a pirate, which is actually an interesting change tbh but the game sucked too much ass for me to want to find out how this affects things.), but that's about it. Shit's lame.

And then, the game has a LOT of yapping. There's only one fight a bit after the start of the game, and then no more for at least the entire first chapter. I played the game for over 3 hours, right? Only one trial battle with only 2 party members. That's ridiculous. I had just started The Actual Chapter One and I'm sure battle was coming... eventually... but I still didn't have all the dudes collected and I had still spent a few days just listening to people talk and playing mini games in exchange for items... I couldn't take it anymore. The game does not spark joy. I will be putting it off for a while.

And from what I saw, battles aren't even POV anymore. What the fuck. That was my favorite part.

I don't mind putting it off because it also gives me more time to improve my Japanese before I reach the third Haruka. Since it's allegedly so good, I want to make sure I understand the plot and dialogue (near-)perfectly so I can bask in its glory. I also don't hold having a rocky start against Haruka 2, because you know how being the second game in a series is. They have a reputation for being... strange.

New Panty & Stocking With Garterbelt

Peak is back babeyyyyyyy

We're four episodes into it now... The first episode was a very strong start, I like how it made you wonder when the censorship laws should take effect, and how ridiculous they can seem in a cartoon context.

Now the next few episodes have jokes like they were written during the 15 year gap and collecting dust in a drawer until this sequel got greenlit. Aged jokes and references, you know? But I never thought it was bad. It's a comedy series, sometimes the comedy will miss, you know how it is. When they squeeze 3 episodes into 25 minutes, I feel like some jokes don't land because they don't give room for certain jokes to land, but do I know Trigger to really give room to things? They tend towards making as many jokes as they can in short amounts of time. Cocomelon for horny otaku????? Possibly.

The last episode was episode 4, and I liked the Fantastic Four(?) reference. Or it's maybe a more general reference to Golden Age comics. I don't actually care much about USAmerican superheroes so I'm not an expert on this, but I'm USAmerican so I can obviously recognize the aesthetic when I see it. (Why was Kneesocks Big Challenges?) Even if it wasn't the fuuuuuuuunniest thing, it was a visual treat to me. I love visuals and animation and images and pictures, if you haven't noticed! I also think that was a crazy ass episode to make episode 4. What more could they have in store??

And when will the Blowjob Brothers appear???

Naruto Fucking Shippuden

For those who care about Naruto spoilers: You probably shouldn't read this! I ain't censoring shit. All of it would have to be censored if I had to. This long-ass section probably ain't even interesting to read if you haven't seen/read Naruto anyways.

I don't think I've said anything about Shippuden here until now...? Well, in the past few days I've seen Jiraiya's final battle and the "Madara" truth nuke. (I know it's you Obito.)
( this shit is long as fuck )

Name: Mr. Fox

Age: 30-something

I mostly post about:
Stories from my life — my thoughts and feelings, especially during this time of war in Ukraine. I try to capture emotions honestly: memories of a peaceful past, reflections on the present, and tales from my life as a mariner and traveler.
This journal is still in its early days, after a long break from writing. Each entry is posted in both English and the original language. I also share my own photographs — from different times, chosen to reflect my current mood.

My hobbies are:
Photography (almost professional), lomography (daily photos of interesting moments), music (acoustic, alternative, instrumental covers), psychology, and classical literature. I love discovering new things — ideas, places, people.

My fandoms are:
Honestly, I’m not active in any specific fandom. But I enjoy reading and learning, especially to improve my English.

I'm looking to meet people who:
…feel connected to what I write — kindred spirits or simply those who find meaning in my words. I’m open to everyone (with one exception: I don’t welcome those who support or excuse the war). My posts are open and honest. I’d love to find new interesting people to read and connect with.

My posting schedule tends to be:
Currently daily, or a few times a week — depending on my free time.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are:
No major dealbreakers — most of what matters is already said above.

Before adding me, you should know:
I’m an open person without any particular agenda. I’m Ukrainian — and perhaps that matters now, just to avoid misunderstandings.
Welcome aboard. These are my messages in a bottle.
