My M.A. dissertation is almost ready… I should have a final draft done by tonight 🤯! I am both excited to finally have time to move on to other projects, and scared of how it will turn out. Hoping for the best! 🤞

Also Translator: Translation is the act of pouring water from cup to cup, it is the glass of each language that changes our view of what it holds, it is a connection allowing distant vessels to seek the same level, it is a Pythagoras cup demanding both greed and restraint, where did I put my coffee

“She’s just a translator” shows that you don’t understand what translation is. Some of this comes from the ‘automation’ of translation, through things like Google translate. It’s as though it’s just looking words up in a dictionary. No. It’s an art and a science at once. To get meaning and feeling.

Also, I cannot stress enough: If you see "AI" being used somewhere, SAY SOMETHING. MAKE YOUR DISPLEASURE KNOWN (NICELY) I get the feeling many are using it (as screensavers, flyers, etc) because they think everyone is— or the business ppl in charge, do— let them know you despise slop, so THEY know

For the people still struggling with pronoun etiquette- I found this basic guide by Dean Spade (2011) that highlights the most important aspects! I'd assume most people on here would be familiar with it, but there's no shame in not knowing if you've never been taught this! #pronouns #trans

Pronoun Etiquette by Dean Spade

People often wonder how to be polite when it comes to problems of misidentifying another person’s pronoun.
Here are some general tips:

1. If you make a mistake, correct yourself. Going on as if it did not happen is actually less respectful than making the correction. This also saves the person who was misidentified from having to correct an incorrect pronoun assumption that has now been planted in the minds of any other participants in the conversation who heard the mistake.

2. If someone else makes a mistake, correct them. It is polite to provide a correction, whether or not the person whose pronoun as misused is present, in order to avoid future mistakes and in order to correct the mistaken assumption that might now have been planted in the minds of any other participants in the conversation who heard the mistake.

3. If you aren’t sure of a person’s pronoun, ask. One way to do this is by sharing your own. “I use masculine pronouns. I want to make sure to address you correctly, how do you like to be addressed?” This may seem like a strange thing to do but a person who often experiences being addressed incorrectly may see it as a sign of respect that you are interested in getting it right.

4. When facilitating a group discussion, ask people to identify their pronouns when they go around and do introductions. This will allow everyone in the room the chance to self-identify and to get each others’ pronouns right the first time. It will also reduce the burden on anyone whose pronoun is often misidentified and may help them access the discussion more easily because they do not have to fear an embarrassing mistake.

Exploring Bluesky a bit more, I just found out that for some reason, it hides “adult” content by default, with no way to show it..? You have to go to your settings to turn on the *button to show adult content*, this is… a strange decision UX-wise

It's confirmed: the end game credits of the Switch 2 version of Tales of Arise still do not include the English voice actors, English localizers, or FIGS localizers. AKA, the people who make sure your game emotionally resonates with overseas audiences. #TranslatorsintheCredits
