@indigopersei is the french language just always on the verge of getting someone accused of assault or..?
my friend, if only you knew
It’s a very dangerous language to learn
Here’s an interesting thing about French! Everything needs to have an article in front of it. That’s why it’s “la chat” as opposed to just “chat”. So, for instance, you could say la fille for the girl, or jeune fille for young girl, but you can’t just say fille, because that means you are calling her a sex worker in a derogatory way.
The moral of the story is, if you want to make something rude in French, just take out the article in front of it. Yes, this works for nearly. every. word.
#now I’m wondering how often my high school french teacher was silently screaming because of this little fact
Every year. Every year there’s that kid who forgets that you can’t translate “I am excited” to “Je suis excitée”. And every year Monsieur Jordan has to slam the brakes before that kid can finish his sentence and then tactfully ask him not to announce to the class that he is horny.
“is the french language always on the verge” oh buddy, oh pal, i am so happy to break this news to you:
truly the language of love
setup and punchline
The artist is luo li rong
The statue doesn’t have big enough titties to have been made by a man.
I know I’ve reblogged this before but the schadenfreude is too delicious.
By the way, the statue is called La mélodie oubliée (The Forgotten Melody). Luo Li Rong also painted it:
And here she and the statue are in a more formal setting (museum or art show, I can’t tell):
“Dork ass losers”
OK not only do I think she’s a sorceress but now I have a massive crush on her
Other times, all you want is them all at once.
we really needed its message, thank you
one of the best moments in television. and one of the best tributes they ever did for Michael
i reblogged this 4 times and regret nothing
JANET WENT FOR BLOOD THAT NIGHT! EPIC!!!
This made me tear
This was not “one of the best” this was by far THE best Michael Jackson tribute to date. Watching Janet perform you could feel the emotion through the television. I will never forget that moment.
Things Everyone Should Know About Min Yoongi
Or just reasons to love him. (From the POV of a Yoongi stan)
loves music
LYRICAL GENIUS
raps faster than the speed of light. hella control over his voice
plays the piano
amazing on stage; in his element
his mixtape saved hiphop. saved lives. saved the world goddamn Yoongi
AGUSTD - Intro: Dt sugA (ft. DJ Friz) - AgustD - give it to me -skit -724148 -140503 at dawn -The Last -Tony Montana (ft. Yankie) -Interlude ; Dream, Reality -so far away (ft. Suran)
he produced the entire thing. it didn’t feel like individual tracks on an album. it felt very complete, in a way i’ve never seen before.
released this masterpiece to the world for free; on soundcloud, on a google drive, on mediafire, on spotify…
He had no problematic lyrics on his mixtape. He doesn’t imitate or glorify modern American hiphop. There are no meaningless lyrics, no misogyny, no materialism or racial slurs. Instead, he talks about himself and builds on that.
worked on his mixtape in between his schedule. sometimes while on the plane, sometimes while working on other music for BTS.
Has a polar bear protection bracelet. Really likes polar bears.
was the happiest person in the world when he met Kumamon it was all too adorable
Very socially aware. Wants to use his fame to shift people’s attention to global problems.
When he and Taehyung got sick and were rushed to the hospital, they ended up having to cancel the concert in Kobe. During his vacation time, he went to the stadium they were supposed to perform in by himself and wrote a post about it in the fancafe. He sat in the seats of the stadium and forced himself to imagine the fans’ emotions on the day that was supposed to be the concert. He wrote a long apology. He felt so guilty it kept him awake every night since the incident. He didn’t know what else to do. He promised never to let the fans down again and to work harder.
works from from 12 am - 6 am on music. even after a full day of training or concert preparation or filming. only to sleep for 2 or 3 hours or not at all to start the next day. sleeps whenever he gets the chance. gives the day’s events his full energy regardless.
when BTS had to pack for their backpacking trip through Europe, he was the one that remembered to pack medicine and first aid supplies. he cleaned up before leaving the hotel room. helped cook. was in charge of their budget.
wrote/composed/produced some of BTS’s best songs: -Tomorrow -Nevermind -Intro (HYYH pt. 1) -Dead Leaves -Fun Boyz -Just One Day -Let Me Know -Paldogangsan (with Hoseok & Namjoon) -Cypher pt 1, 2, & 3 (with Hoseok & Namjoon)
participates in the making of almost every BTS song
he looks gorgeous in every hair colour he’s literally so beautiful
once said he would sue Bighit if his hair started falling out lmao
his smile that shows his gums
laughs in 10 different ways
his voice sounds beautiful in Whalien52 aka one of my favourite songs
in the song “Move” he dedicated his section to his mom, who was sick after she gave birth to him
in “If I ruled the world” he dreams, if he could have anything, it would be to buy a house for his family
danced around his studio in the early hours of the morning when “Nevermind” was approved to be the intro of HYYH pt.2
really likes lamb skewers. Wants to open a lamb skewer restaurant with Jungkook
his only goal is to make music that gives people emotions (comfort). the root of his passion, goes back to when he started making music at the age of 13.
his dream was to perform at Olympic Gymnastics Arena. At the end of the concert, he looked for his parents and brother in the crowd. When he saw them, he smiled and got on the floor to do a deep bow, the kind where your forehead touches the ground. This is when he sobbed for the first time at a concert.
at fansigns, fans get to write them a question. “What’s more important? Face or body?” is asked a lot, not just to BTS but all Kpop groups. Yoongi is the only one that writes a third option, “Personality” and circles it and writes that it is the most important. He does this every time the question comes up.
When given the question, “What type of girl?” or “What type of style do you like in a girl?” He circles all of them.
his ideal type is someone who likes music and someone he can communicate with. there are never any other specifications.
when asked for the ideal weight in a girl, he writes a ridiculous number
when asked what age difference he would date, he wrote “81 years” lol
tells everyone to eat well and take care of themselves. loves his fans more than anything.
extremely open-minded person
when he and Namjoon were being disrespected by Bfree during an interview, he stayed calm and handled the situation well. Then proceeded to drAG THE HELL OUT OF HIM IN CYPHER PT. 2
the “S” in Suga stands for “Savage”
literally sarcastic all the time
“If we’re talking about regrets you should think of some of your past selcas” - to Jimin
relatable
king of “I meant to do that”
the time he and Hoseok reacted to a “Try not to laugh challenge” of their own members and Yoongi laughed so hard he choked
his existence is pretty much art in itself
the thing he does when his members are doing something embarrassing and he just curls up and covers his face
“Min Suga. Genius. Those two words should be enough. *shrugs*”
“I want to reincarnate and be a rock in my next lifetime”
“I’m Father Louis Williams Suga Adams the Third”
“I’m good at doing ugly stuff”
“I was destined to be taller, but there were some errors in my development.”
“I’d like to introduce you to my lover…this neckpillow"
“I’ve always wanted to nap in a different country”
on his first birthday after he debuted, he spent his own money to make small gifts for his fans and hand-wrote over 300 notes for the fans that were going to come to see him on his birthday. he spent a long time because he wanted to make each note different. at the event, he got embarrassed because “it’s not much but I hope you all like it”. he learned that instead of 300, 350 came and he made 50 more to send to them.
the next year, he made packages again but this time with transportation cards so the fans could use them when they came to see them. hand-written letters again, signed polaroids and ordered special envelopes.
gave Jimin his credit card to charge the passes with, and when Jimin jokingly said he’s going to spend his money on snacks, Yoongi unhesitatingly said “Okay”
he did something again this year, but just didn’t vlog about it.
took pictures of Jungkook at his graduation like he was a proud parent
the time when he and Hoseok lost a game and didn’t get dinner. Jimin brought them a crab from their table, and Yoongi let Hoseok have it. “Seeing my dongsaeng eat makes me feel full.“
Bangtan love him. They say Yoongi takes care of them well, especially his dongsaengs. He’s the one that silently takes care of them all.
The time Yoongi took Jimin out to eat sushi, and while Jimin was tying his shoes, Yoongi paid and told him they could go. “Of course, I’m the hyung.“
says his members are his closest friends. says Bighit is like a family
when Hoseok was celebrating New Years alone in the dorms, Yoongi left his family and showed up with chicken just so Hoseok wouldn’t have to spend new years by himself
Maschine mk2 review what a nerd
that time he tried to install a music editing software and ranted for 10 years on the fancafe because technology is problematic
that one time Yoongi got really passionate about coffee and said he needed 309 people to help him “catch” coffee
does reviews and gives insight on all of BTS’s albums
the time he sang his heart out with Hoseok for “I was able to eat well” and sounded terrible
the time they had a high note challenge and Yoongi sang so “high” that no noise came out
so extra. all the time.
“the director said it would only take 5 minutes. It’s been exactly 4 minutes and 58 seconds"
that time he had to introduce himself and pulled confetti out of his pocket and threw it over himself
but also unamused
he is a paradox
“I want to go baaaaaaaack”
easily put in his place by Jin, his hyung. But also ignores all of his jokes.
cannot dance for his life (literally flailing in DOPE) but is a really good dancer (FIRE ????)
he just works hard
unhesitatingly kicked Jimin in the balls when he started dancing over his legs while he was trying to sleep. didn’t even wake up.
that time Taehyung was really nervous on stage and kept stuttering and messing up his words. the members laughed and poked fun at him, but Yoongi shushed them and the audience and told Taehyung to breathe and relax and start again. This time Taehyung didn’t stutter
literally a deadass person at the awards show until Namjoon was up next to perform and Yoongi couldn’t stop being hyped and looking for him
makes fun of his members all the time but always makes sure they’re comfortable
witty but never crude
says he’s not always the best at expressing himself verbally, but wants everyone to know he is always thankful
kindest, bravest, strongest person to ever grace this earth. blesses the lives of everyone he touches
There are certain things I didn’t include in there, because they are a part of his mixtape and I think that speaks for itself.
To Min Yoongi, thank you.
Please take a moment and read this biblical reference on Yoongi
It’s a must-read
I’m crying. He’s so beautiful, inside and out.
Imagine being that guy
I AM HAVING A HEART ATTACK
Bitch was just prepared to wait it the fuck out
People who stay in the car to listen to music a little bit longer are my kind of people.
Me, every day
And my weak ass elementary school got rid of our jungle gym because Ella was too weak to hang on and sprained her wrist
That is a death trap
ok fun but like… how do you stop?

Like, I support the fuck out of trans girls and young trans women, don’t get me wrong. But it would be nice to see some more pics of middle-aged and older trans women, too.
Speaking as a slightly older-than-tumblr-average trans woman (I’m 41), we’re out here. It’s just that most of my peers don’t hang out on Tumblr, they’re on Facebook or Twitter.
I’ll be 37 this year. Wow … that hurt to say, a little. But yeah, we’re here. <3
39 here, and quite proud of it. Also not on Facebook for what it’s worth. I like the peers I have here on Tumblr. :)
*sigh* fine. FINE.
i’m… 39. i just turned 39.
i’m only owning up to it because i was terrified of transitioning at 34 and i would do anything to alleviate that fear for someone else.
we are NEVER talking about this again tho
35 now (just got home from a shoot and an outcall when this was taken)
… the women above me give me lots of hope and joy
THIS IS MAKING ME SO HAPPY OMG
It’s always really nice seeing pictures of older trans people, because quite often on here it’s the transitioning teenagers, and it’s scary because it makes it feel like we don’t have a future
y’all are beautiful and amazing, please keep being you!
I will be turning 40 in April and I am just getting ready to start HRT.
This is just a list of people my soon-to-be 37 year-old self should be following…
Always reassuring to be reminded that I’m not the only 35+ y.o. transwoman on here!
40 y.o. here. Started HRT 6 months ago.
Beautiful!! It’s comforting to see any older trans people online, tbh.
Reblog to love and appreciate older trans people. Show them they are welcome.
Keep doing what you’re doing
I’m reblogging this because I feel it’s a very important thing to address.
It’s never too late to change your life.
Like yeah, it’s cool that teens can get a say in how they identify and deciding to change and break away from their perceived gender. Mad props to them.
But if this new revolutionary wave, where it’s becoming accepted, normal is getting to you in your 20s, 30s, 40s or beyond… you can still go for it if you want to. If you hadn’t had the chance, if you hadn’t fully decided until just now then…
Go for it.
Because life is one and we need to live it until our last breath. Live as yourself, and life happy, enough sad things happen in this world for you not to be able to express who you really are.
Hey, can you give me some advice on writing a horse ride and a sword fight for my WIP? I have no idea what any of technical terms are!
(Hey there! I certainly can!
Terms and phrases for riding horses (with a fight scene in mind!)
Walk, trot, canter, gallop - paces.
Halt = asking the horse to stop
Aids = instructions given to the horse, by the rider
Mount/Dismount = to get on/off the horse
Vault = to swing onto the horse, generally whilst it is moving
Contact = pressure/’feeling’ on the reins, between the riders hand and horses mouth. (used to direct the horse - see a little more about using the reins in this post - on writing horses in your WIP)
Near side = left side of horse
Off side = right side of horse
Hindquarters = horses rump/back end
Lame = A limping horse
Sound = a horse that isn’t lame
Rein back = asking the horse to step backwards
Half -Halt =when the rider asks the horse to pay attention a little
Transition = When the gait changes, (walk to halt, trot to canter, etc)
Rear = When a horse goes up on its hind legs
Buck = when a hors eputs its head between its front legs, and throws its hind legs up
Baulk = When a horse hesitates, or refuses to go forward
Spook = When a horse shies at something, and jumps
Haute Ecole = an ancient method of training horses for war
Barding = Armour used on horses. (It’s old timey knight stuff, but it might be what you want. More about that here)
Sword fighting terminology
(!!! I’m the first to admit I know next to nothing about swordfighting, only what I’ve researched for my own WIP. This terminology is from here, the brilliant Lisa Shea.)
Advance - a short forward movement.Blade - the length of metal that is used for attacking or defending (i.e. the entire metal length beyond the guard).Boar’s Tooth - a guard where the sword is before your front right leg.Deflect - actively change the incoming sword’s speed or angle by hitting it with your own sword (or foot etc)Diagonal - Moving forward diagonally forward - right.Edge - the sharp side of the blade. Japanese blades were typically single edged, while Medieval swords could have both sides sharpened.Empty Fade - Leaping backwards as if to fade but immediately leaping forwards again.Fade - Leaping backwards while leaving the feet in the same orientation.False Edge - the back / trailing edge of the sword, usually the one you do NOT intend to cut with.Front Guard - a guard where the sword is held vertically in front of your face.Full Iron Gate Guard - a guard where the sword is halfway between your right and left legs, angled right.Fuller - a groove running down the length of the blade. I have some books which claim this is a “blood groove” to help blood flow out of an enemy but other books which seem more reliable say it’s to help the sword come out of a body without being caught (it breaks the suction).Grip - the part of the hilt you grip with your hand for control.Guard - a cross-piece on the hilt that keeps your hands safe from your opponent’s weapon sliding down the length of your blade. Also called a cross-guard.Guard - (meaning #2) - a position of safety, a pose where you can defend yourself from attack.Guard of the Woman - a guard where the sword is over your right shoulder, behind your back.Half Iron Gate Guard - a guard where the sword is held before your left leg.Hilt - the generic name for the entire part of the sword near your hands, the part that is not the blade.Long Point - a guard where the sword is straight out from your chest, with your arms extended.Lunge - leaping forwards while leaving the feet in the same orientation.Pass Back - Taking a step backwards by moving your front foot into the rear position.Pass Forward - Taking a step forwards by moving your rear foot into the front position.Pivot - Rotating 180 degrees while keeping the front foot stationary.Pommel - the knobby end of the hilt, used by the second hand for a ball-in-socket pivot point in many moves, or merely as a counterweight in one handed attacks.Posta - the Italian word for guard, as in a position of safety.Posta drill - a series of movements from guard to guard, to help you learn the guards.Retreat - a short movement backwards.Shed - to allow a sword to slide away off your sword without trying to impede / change it, so you are then free to attack or move.Short Guard - a guard where the hilt is at your hip and the sword is pointing up and forward.Slope - moving diagonally backwards back and left.Stance - the position your body is in to be ready for an attack or defense.Step Across - Rotating 180 degrees by crossing the front foot across the back foot and then turning in place.fTail Guard - a guard where the hilt is at your hip and the sword is pointing behind you.Tip - the pointy end of the blade.True Edge - the front / leading edge of the sword, usually the one you intend to cut with.Two Horn Guard - a guard where the sword pommel is at your chest with the sword pointing out.Window Guard - a guard where the hilt is at your ear and the sword points forwards.
