The MAGAfication of Norman Rockwell
Trump uses the artist’s work—like other cultural icons—to promote Gestapo tactics and nativist ideas.

"There were many, many beatings, Quintero said: 'If we talked, they would beat us.'... Routinely, the guards isolated detainees in a dark room known as 'La Isla, he recalled. At one point, Hernandéz Romero has said, he was dragged there and sexually abused..."

Hi folks — I’m back on the job market and open to roles + freelance work in language and localisation. I work across Hindi, Odia, Bhojpuri, Magahi and Angika and over the last few years I’ve taught, translated, interpreted, edited, and generally helped people communicate better across contexts. 🧵

On Women’s Day, wanted to share 2 quotes from Afghan women, in an interview with BBC news. Arshida: #Books are not just entertainment – they are a means of survival. Ala: I'm not calling for women to expose their heads, I want #freedom for our souls, minds and spirit. www.bbc.com/news/live/c0...

These Bhasha verses compare Sher Shah Suri to a 'pralaya' (deluge) that washes away Humayun's rule. The 'balaheena baalaka' (helpless child) Akbar manages to survive by staying afloat on a 'banyan leaf' ('akshaya-vata ko paata').

I've always had a deep disdain for Bhartendu Harishchandra because he is perhaps the biggest reason for the political state of North and Eastern India today but finding out that the piece of shit didn't even write a good chunk of his work has made me actually hate his guts.

I honestly think this insanity is all just ovulation. Once I'm not ovulating it'll pass. I mean it hasn't passed in some 4 months or so and it only grows but I'm confident it'll pass. If it doesn't I just learn one more language.

Rereading this absolute banger (Mort) and wonderfully pleased that this is dedicated by Terry Pratchett "to Rhianna." In a less politically fraught world I would have learned about her existence from her work and not that she's one of the few non-disowned trans daughters of famous people, but well.

Seen a few folks astonished by my lack of support for ChatGPT and similar. Because AI, right? Yeah, no. What we have right now is glorified autocorrect. Glorified autocorrect that takes the energy of an entire city to do what it does, plus half of Lake Erie to cool down while it's doing it.
