In my head there lives a DC-Ted Lasso AU in which Bruce somehow ended up with a football team that was beloved of the Al Ghuls when he and Talia got divorced, and as a side effect of their messy, messy breakup he decides to destroy the club as quickly as possible.

So he hires Kansas-based American football coach Clark Kent who has never even seen a game of soccer played let alone coached one.

Which does beg the question, so eloquently phrased by notable sports journalist Lois Lane, “is this a fucking joke?”

Happy pride month!

I wasn’t tagged and just found this through scrolling but I am so happy because Idiots in love is (one of) my favorite tropes/tags. MY IDIOTS TO LOVERS IS SO PRECIOUS TO ME. And I also consider myself to likely be in that kind of situation as well. I probably will just overthink and maybe gaslight myself if anyone ever showed romantic interest in me. Also it’s just so silly and fun. I love my Idiots in Love tag. Let’s be silly and share a brain cell together! Idiots to lovers to so fun it makes me smile so much my cheeks hurt. But Idiots in love already are hilarious. Gimme gimme I want and need more of my lovable idiots. This life is too short to not enjoy the silliness and awkwardness of moments of love. Whether it is platonic or romantic or something else all together. I love Love. Anyways, I’ll be tagging some mutuals in case they’d like to try this quiz for themselves.

Die temu ad die

[necromancelena]

Hmm. Accidentally looks like latin.

[chef-boy-ar-girl]

It accidentally is latin

[saanah]

Accidental latin is my new favourite thing.

[santapau]

Found this in the margins of a medieval manuscript.

[qqueenofhades]

This is a very charming illustration and I do approve of Accidental Latin, but unfortunately, that is not what this (Fake) Accidental Latin actually says. Google Translate seems to think "temu" is identical to "timor" (infinitive, "to fear"), which would then be conjugated in first-person singular as "timeo" ("I fear"). "Temu" is not a word in Latin. So that is a very weird leap on Google Translate's part to turn gibberish into... something vaguely etymologically similar sounding? Hmm.

Next, "die" does mean "day," though nominative singular is "dies," i.e. "dies irae." It could be conjugated "die" if it was in ablative or locative case, but "die ad die" would mean something more like "day to day." "Ad" is in a "to" direction and "ab" is from, i.e. "ab urbis," and ablative case is used to indicate the movement of a thing. In short, "by" is not really a way to translate "ad"; we might want "per" here? (Through, by means of, etc.)

Not to mention, it would be weird to put one "die" at the start and another at the end The verb also usually goes at the end in Latin sentences, just for that extra bit of fun. So yes, in short, this is not actually Latin, and Google Translate is very bad at Latin in particular. Nonetheless, still charming.

@theshitpostcalligrapher

[sekkitsune]

Agree, @qqueenofhades, except on the matter of breaking “die ad die” apart. It’s a common structure in poetic and oratorical Latin to jam one phrase in the middle of another. I can’t think of an example exactly parallel to this construction, but I could believe a Roman poet would write it!

[qqueenofhades]

Ah, that is true. My Latin is of the reading-medieval-documents (particularly charters and/or chronicles) variety, where the sentence and usage structures are often more formulaic and there is less poetic license to move words around. There is obviously far less fixity for word order in Latin, since the conjugations explain how they grammatically relate to each other rather than placement in the sentence. (Coincidentally, this is why I used to say that the best feeling in the world was walking past a Latin classroom and not having to go inside it. Ahem.)

So yes: true that poetical Latin might be more at liberty to split the "die"-s up that far, though "timeo" (verb) is still more likely in most cases to go at the end, which would place them together anyway ("die ad die timeo," "day to day I fear" if translated in strict word order, which would make sense to an English speaker and sound more poetic anyway). Keep in mind, however, that my Latin is a) fairly rusty and b) mostly used for said formulaic legal document reading rather than freeform verse, so don't super-hard quote me on this.

[sekkitsune]

I saw that ablative “die” and that final -u on “temu” and thought of the ablative supine (as in “mirabile dictu”) but as you observe, there isn’t a verb that “temu” could be, and then also, the ablative supine requires an adjective, as far as I know.

But perhaps “temu” is a hapax legomenon (in which case we would need the rest of the text to gloss it) or a scribal error for temeratu, from temero, “I defile or disgrace”. In that case, and in true Tumblr form, I might translate it as “daily I disgrace, in the manner of the day”, with some errors attributable to the scribe.

[qqueenofhades]

....oh my god. You might be a genius. Because what else does Tumblr do but daily disgrace [itself, oneself, and/or numerous others] in the manner of the day, and make numerous scribal errors.

[laurenthemself]

how dare you say we error on the scribes

[jtimu]

this is what happens when you buy your latin on temu

When Kakashi said he wanted to speak with her privately, Iruka agreed immediately. He had a backpack with him and it looked like he was about to leave on a mission so she didn’t want to waste his time. She had intended to lead him to an empty classroom since today’s classes were over but as soon as they were far enough away from the hallways usually frequented by shinobi, Kakashi pinned her against the wall.
