☩ Where Love is, God is ☩ @thelingering - Tumblr Blog

Waving waving!

Hola! :D Mi nombre es Lingo, y esta entrada va a ser totalmente en Español, porque soy filólogo quien es absolutamente fluente en todos los idiomas– (sadly I’m joking, I’m not that good at Spanish yet). Anyways, hello! You can call me Lingo, and I’m somebody who exists! A little about me is as follows:

I’m a Roman Catholic Christian! albeit (from my understanding of myself) not a very good one — still, in accordance with that fact, my faith is something I love deeply. It's one of those things where everyone has their own angle on it, so if you ever want to know what it means to be Catholic, and/or specifically what it means for me to be Catholic, I’d be overjoyed to answer any (good-faith) question you have, and I’ll do my best to respond as well as I can o7. I can’t recommend the Catechism of the Catholic Church enough if you’re looking to know more about my faith.

(For the record, I do think very deeply about my faith, but that's not exactly the easiest thing to summarise in a post like this, so you'll most likely see that in the actual content of my blog, as apposed to how I summarise it here.)

And aside from that, there’s just some miscellaneous things about me that I'm sure you'll pick up on pretty quick, but here's a rundown: Philosophy; Linguistics (I love my languages); Music! (a lot); My friends (#myefriends<3); In general, all things particularly beautiful in life, especially fine arts & humanity as a whole.

That all said, there will absolutely be other things which I talk about on this blog. And! My ask box is always open to passersby who wish to talk to me! I shall indubitably talk back :D Thanks for hanging around this far! May Peace be with you, I'm always praying for you. :)

#catholicism #pinned post #the talkies tag #GET LOVED NERD #i've been gone for so long and i don't really know how to go about reengaging with you all but by golly i've been meaning to update this #pinned post‚ so by golly will i start here i guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯#it's always a weird thing having to formulate opinions i have. like i am so docile about asserting myself that sometimes #i forget how to express what i hold true

MY BEAUTIFUL BOY

you can't see it but he's moving across the screen in a sine-wave pattern

now the program also plays that Edelweiss recording I posted on loop in the background, this is truly beautiful

#the talkies tag #i'm loving raylib so far XD #i can imagine my feelings will change once i need to use functions to initialise multiple instances of particles bcs allocation is #. so fun!

MY BEAUTIFUL BOY

you can't see it but he's moving across the screen in a sine-wave pattern

#the talkies tag #see i'd already done this earlier but the win here is that i FINALLY used pointers in function CORRECTLY #AT LONG LAST those things are clicking for me this is WONDERFUL #also disregard the low quality of the photo lol this is meant to be celebratory and so i didn't really bother to get a nice photo XD

GUYS performance is in like 6 days I genuinely can't really fathom it. and guess who definitely has all their lines memorised! Definitely me :D I'm really good at that :D

#the talkies tag #AND guess who knows all the DANCES! and harmonies!#but it all honesty i think with a bit of final rehearsing i should be a-okay #i've been told not to beat myself up and for some reason THAT was what got me to realise that it's all actually totally chill

I'm currently reading a tutorial breaking down how windows API works in c, and I'm gonna be honest my retention is in the negatives with this one, I am absolutely going to have to run off of general principles and already-written code

#the talkies tag #it's like. messages! yay! dunno what all that other code does but i can make the window do something i think #coding is so fun XDD it feeds what i suspect to be some adhd-thing while also humouring my ability to grandly overlook basic instructions #c is especially funny because overlooking those instructions has a very high likelihood of Breaking Everything And I Mean Everything #anyways back to reading. adieu!#memory safe is not in my vocabulary

question 2 my followers: what’s the most obscure piece of media you’ve ever developed a fixation with? not obscure as in “at one point had a reasonably thriving fandom that eventually faded” but something you feel you were almost entirely alone in your appreciation for

#hmmmm SURELY it's Where Love Is God Is #Martin Avdeitch lives in my heart like a little resident whom I bed free of charge #there are actually SO many signs to indicate like. TRUE obsession but that one seems most relevant #i love that story <3 #also harrison bergeron is also up there by very similar circumstances

If this is the sign you're looking for, please

stay alive

stay safe

Drink some water

eat something

get back into the things you love

Unclench your jaw

do some self-care

Take a shower or bath

Take your med(s)

I may have done a thing! a little birdie (or like 5000) might have decided to impromptu cameo in this take so please compliment their background vocals, they worked really hard for this

#my music of merriment #get platformed #i've decided i want to FINALLY start posting to my music blog #so have a song that i HOPE i know how to play well enough to be a good starter #bottle for the ship kind of a thing #:D

posts a recording of me playing Edelweiss at the absolute HACKEY-SACK speed of 250 bpm

#the talkies tag #it's actually turned out surprisingly coherent the times i've recorded it XD #maybe i'll fight my fear of being Perceived and post a recording of me singing it and playing it #perhaps #at proper speed of course XD

my astigmatism has been satiated *big ol' thumbs up*

#the talkies tag #new glasses arrived!! i can see leaves again #sometimes i forget that not being able to see things is like. a medical condition. like what are you talking about that's reality for me

My Anthropologist Thesis: Why I Love Humanity

#WOOOOO WAVING BIG 'I LOVE ANTHROPOLOGY' FLAG #my upcoming thesis genuinely makes me so happy because it's theology meets contemporary philosophy meets linguistics\anthropology #(showing the intersections of those three things has proven a whole different level of abstract but that's beside the point XD)

when kermit the frog sang about the lovers the dreamers and me he was just describing myself actually

So,,,,,,,,,, I may have rewatched Moulin Rouge because of you,,,,,,,,,,, possibly

BEAUTIFUL it's so GOODDDDDDD. Christian and Satine. the them of all time. <3. okay I MUST know what your thoughts are on that movie, I'm so curious to hear what you've got inside your brain. especially now that you've had TWO whole watch-throughs

#the talkies tag #:DDDDD #LITCHRALLY a musical of all time #[starts singing every song all at once]#you've no idea just how much glee this brought me :DD #moulin rouge

FINALLY it has been WEEKSSS of AGONY. I FINALLY figured it out

#the talkies tag #brought to you by Lingo Overwrote The Path Variable In Windows And Suffered For It #after learning to use the cmd prompt a little i finally realised that the 'help' function not existing was a little fishy #and it turns out that the system32 directory is somewhat important to have as a path variable XD #genuinely i'm so relieved lolll #memory safe is not in my vocabulary #<- new coding tag [youthful fire emoji]
