These past few days have been the worst

The constant anxiety over the fact that peace is under threat

The way Putin invaded Ukraine, demonstrating that international laws and human rights are fragile in front of the brutal aggressor.

Being sick and tired of disinformation everywhere and realising that the first victim of war is truth

And today I have got a disheartening slap as numerous reports of Black students being discriminated resurface in several sources.

Is this another sophisticated Pro-Putin propaganda to escalate the tension?

Or is it the harsh reality that racism exists even amidst the war?

Cases have been reported in multiple outlets, African- Carribbean students sharing what they are experiencing on social media.

The Polish outlet shared their narrative which brought more even confusion

It was hate that fertilised the mindset that led to historical atrocities and the present day replication of them.

Ukraine is currently setting the bar for bravery and leadership while the war made the prejudice resurface when the opportunity to be kind arose.

Happy birthday @tundrainafrica

I remember coming across 3rd chapter of "A Tale of two Slaves" when I just got into Levihan. I read it until early morning and oh, it was so satisfying.

And later, I got to meet you in the server and discovered that in addition to being a wonderful writer, you have increadible sense of humour, wide range of interests and best discussion topics.

Wish you all the best, Sav. Hope you like this art inspired by " Coast Lights", one of my favourite fics.

I was tagged by @bacchanalium

Favorite color: Blue, specifically this shade

#0000FF

Currently reading: I have just finished Iron Widow by Xiran Jay Zhao, the book that is about as intense, insane and amazing fun as I was lead to believe. Before that I re-read Piranesi by Susanna Clarke, which was my favorite read of 2021, and a very satisfying re-read now. And now I am looking intensely at How Story Works by Lani Diane Rich, hoping to read it next.

Last Song: Six Feet Under by Kissin’ Dynamite, because I’ve just watched the third episode of the Peacemaker, and this song kicked me in some sensitive place, and I had to listen to it several times to get this song out of my brain.

Last Series: I’ve just finished the Expanse, the last season and everything. I probably should start the books, but these days long book series scare me.

Sweet, savory or spicy: depends on a mood and circumstances. Usually, I prefer savory and a bit sour. But with my tea I would have something sweet or nothing at all.

Currently working on: Several unfinished fics, several unfinished original stories. Also I am trying to delete all the unnecessary and double photos I have collected over the past… fifteen years?

Thanks for the tag @avrelia!

Favorite Color: Usually I go with purple or royal blue.

Currently reading: Carrying the Fire: An Astronaut's Journey by Michael Collins and We by Yevgeny Zamyatin (this one is required for a history class I'm in).

Last Song: 'Red' by Thomas Bergersen, because I was listening to my classical/soundtrack music playlist earlier since that's easier for me to listen to with a headache.

Last Series: Currently I'm watching The X-Files for the 20th(?) time, but the most recent new series I've watched is Archive81. If anyone out there likes occult horror mystery shows that have a touch of paranormal, Archive 81 is awesome. Or at least I really liked it.

Sweet, savory or spicy: I'm a big fan of spicy foods, and anything with sugar in it. So sweet or spicy would be my go-to food types, I suppose.

Currently working on: Finishing the Modern AU Bingo prompts I was sent months ago, a few headcanon asks I've had sitting around for forever, and Brave Soldier Girl Chapter II.

Thanks for the tag Krast!

Favorite Color: Pearl Aqua! I've actually loved this colors since I was 12. And then it turned out that my favorite band had the same color as their official color.

Currently reading: I just finished the Poppy War series, and right now I'm reading No Longer Human. Next I'll pick up the Grishaverse series, or maybe The Yiddish Policemen.

Last Song: APETITAN from Attack on Titan, though that's a soundtrack- and a song would be aawake at night by Half Alive.

Last Series: Attack on Titan and Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood.

Sweet, savoury or spicy: Spicy!

Currently working on: Some translating work for my internship, ch13 of Silence of the Blue Spirit, some fics for Side Character Week, and some background art studies.

THANK YOU FOR THE TAG @cheeseloverlactoseintolerant !!!!

Favorite color: THIS CHANGES SO MUCH AHHHH but I think purples??? There’s this beautiful iris that grows in the spring and I absolutely adore it’s vivid hue

Favorite Color: Purple💜

Currently Reading: Ace of Spades by Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé. I have to write a review for it on Saturday at the most and I'm only halfway through it so I really have to hurry up😥 but so far so good! I love the setting and It's quite intriguing, with its gossip girl kind of mystery. I love how you keep knowing more and more about the characters page after page, discovering new secrets little by little.

Last song: Unspoken by Hurts. It's a quite beautiful song that always reaches my heart😭 I guess it makes me get all angsty because associate it with some of my otps, as I listened to it first with a ship fanvid hehe

Last series: Kdramas count, right? Then, Do you know Brahms?🎻 I've read so many mixed and bad reviews about this one, and then some more of people loving it, that I got curious. Although I'm only five episodes in, it's so heartwarming that I declare myself of the ones that praise it😍 Even when it gets a little dramatic for moments, that it's somewhat slow, and that I'm not a fan of love triangles (and there's a love hexagon in the background here, mind you), I find it enchanting. I love the main characters (they're so introverted that I identify with them to my very core), the classic music is so soothing and—I'm just currently in love with it. Hope that doesn't change.

Sweet, savory, spicy? Sweet. Give me icecream or a Cookies&Cream frappe and I'm forever yours kidding...or am I?

Currently working on: Finishing my WIP Time to Time and plotting (or trying to) my next multichapter, which is going to be a levihan enemies-to-lovers, if everything works out (hopefully, it will🤞)

Thanks so much for the tag Eny 💞

Favorite color: celestial blue 💠

Currently reading: The Magellanic Cloud by Stanisław Lem. Mid XX century science fiction is so fun to read. Nothing compares. They only invented the analogue of the Internet in 2531, and it is used for nothing else but accessing scientific knowledge or works of art. And communism won. Hehe.

Last song: I watched some music videos just recently, but I wouldn't count them honestly. The last song I, uh, consciously listened to was Fireflies by Owl City. The lyrics, so creative! And his normal a bit excessive amount of autotune fits perfectly there. The one before was a Russian cover of Neri no Hoshizora owo

Last series: Stranger Things. Haven't finished s2, not sure if I would. I liked the first one better.

Sweet, savory, spicy? Savory! I love my sweets, and chili pepper too, but could get bored if ate them too often. Savory? Always ready

Currently working on: I have my fic to finish translating, not my fic to come back to translating, and a ton of poetry drafts in my notes. Gotta do something about those...

Thanks for tagging me @lady-eny @aphee-sheiz

Favourite color : black and purple

Currently reading: Never Split the Difference by Chris Voss. I am trying to face the dreadful feeling of negotiations tho i am not making success lol. Hope to read Headstrong by Dave Asprey next.

Last song: Lain by Acid Fader. Discovered this band recently and oh damn, they are cool. I love their post-punk/dark wave music. It makes me imagine Serial Experiments of Lain opening just darker

Last series: Ohh, I haven't been watching any tv series since I came to Japan, so the last one must be Squid Game which I watched in mid September. But I do wanna watch Doctor Who ( thank you @aphee-sheiz for introducing me to the series)

Sweet, savory or spicy: Either sweet or savory but NEVER spicy. I can't stand spicy food

Currently working on: finishing vegan levihan fic for @aphee-sheiz Also sketching another Levihan comic. Hope to post them soon.
