i do not know a SINGLE person, not even out of my friends, not even out of the most woke people on this damn site, that only likes unproblematic things. every single one of us likes something that’s fucking garbage. so some of y’all can climb down off your high horses and stop competing for the “least problematic” award honest to god.

So I used to have a Russian friend who had a pretty thick accent and like a lot of Russians tended to eschew articles. She would say things like “Get in car.” And stuff.

Well one day this asshole who had been kind of tagging along with us asks her why she talks like that because it makes her sound dumb and I still remember her response word for word.

“Me? Dumb? Maybe in America you have to say get in THE car because you are so stupid that people might just get in random car, but in Russia we don’t need to say that. We just fucking know because we are not stupid.”

One time I was proof reading a paper for a Russian student. As I was correcting her paper with her, the many mistakes in her grammar started weighing on her. I asked her what was wrong, and she said, almost sobbing,

“In Russian I am so intelligent and clear. In English I am like [an] idiot”

Respect to anyone trying to master a foreign language. I get so sad thinking about that student.

Full offense but people who make fun of someone else’s accent or belittle their limited vocabulary when they’re speaking a language not native to them are fucking disgusting and are just begging to be punched.

They’re speaking your language because you don’t know theirs. That’s not something they should be made fun of, it’s something that should be commended because learning a language is hard fucking work.

I hate people who do this so much.

I Don’t Want to Die

Hey tumblr! It’s your local disabled queer Jew and things are fucked. If you’re looking to help someone out, please consider helping me out.

  • I am disabled, but it’s become debilitating in the last few years which has made it hard to find work, and disability is hard to get and takes usually 2-4 years at the soonest.
  • I am not eating really because I have no money.
  • I have no money. Like, none.
  • Rent is due in 4 days. It is 805 dollars I don’t have.
  • My electric was due 2 days ago. My air conditioning will likely be turned off because I don’t have the money for it, which could lead to hospitalization or death for someone like me.
  • Please help me it’s my birthday on August 8th and I’d like to not die before then.
  • I am my own support system I have really nobody I can lean on in this hard time.

some resources for people who want to start animating

my advice: have fun and play–play is learning | always be watching real life to see how things move | also be watching cool animations to learn from them | don’t wait until you’re ‘good at art’–animating will help you improve | it’s hard but so worth it when things turn out well, good luck!

fullyfazed: Quick addition!!! Krita is a free art program (and photoshop substitute) that also has animation in it!!!!

miraculousglitter: Do you know about any good animation programs for tablet?

Try Loop?  Rudimentary but just fine for practicing!
