As for those who have sent recent asks, sometime, and those who have forgotten years-old asks: yea, sirrahs, I have them, thankee. I worked on them, once, and did, sometime. I should like to get back to posting original thoughts, sometime.

Happy 100th birthday, Dick Van Dyke! A CENTURY OF LIFE!!!

I learned about this man in 2011, and I am certain I wouldn’t be who I am today if it weren’t for him. Thank you so much for so many years of joy!

I love you! ❤️🫂

That’s awesome! I will download it, I want to improve my accent for when I sing Τ’ Αη Γιωρκού (the version by Alkinoos Ioannidis is probably in my top 3 all time favourite songs)

I hope something is also done for the fading dialects of Greek that the state has completely forgotten about. Grecanico, Romeyka, Tsakonian, Cappadocian, Mariupolitan… all are dying.

(Btw sorry for diverging from the main topic but I heard somewhere that the ministry office responsible for ALL the Greek diaspora communities globally is comprised by four - 4 - individuals. Which kinda explains why everyone and everything is abandoned to their fate. I don’t know if this is accurate but judging from the sociopolitical situation in Greece, I don’t find it hard to believe this…)

Don't want to rain on your parade, but Alkinoos Ioannides' version is overrated imo. This version is much better:

And my personal fave:

Seeing that the app was made by an Australian-born and her husband (without further credentials) I am pretty hesitant of how accurate it is. It's a good start though for people who want to learn Cypriot Greek, though non-native Greek speakers would need some basic knowledge of standard modern or ancient Greek to help them.

Just my two cents ✌️

[agallimaufryofoddments]

Ooh, here’s the superior version I grew up on!

The whole album (Chants Épiques et Populaires de Chypre) is really wonderful, incidentally.

Not to be ~special~, or any the like, but I do suppose that consistent ADD medicine was more beneficial for me than whatever this existence is.

Do you ever stare at ye old unfinished fanfiction draft and think, Aye, that was a total mischaracterization, time to gut and rework, then stare at the WIP rework and think, Aye, that was a total mischaracterization, time to gut and rework…?

Mark Waid talked about his favorite moment writing Fantastic Four in today’s Marvel podcast. He said it was a page in his very first issue where Reed explained to infant Valeria why he called himself Mr. Fantastic and why he tried to make the F4 into celebrities. It was really about his (Reed’s) guilt.

I’ve read those particular panels so many times, they were my favorite or at least one of my favorites in the whole world comic books. I just went back and read them again. These two pages never failed to make me emotional.
