THE RAT (1925) is a rather silly British film about the French Apache with the lead played by a Welshman and an American leading lady. It asks the important question: do you want to see a movie that is entirely a vehicle for Ivor Novello's profile? Many people did and do say yes.

In August 2025, several villages in Tana Toraja, South Sulawesi, held Ma'nene, a ritual of exhuming the bodies of loved ones from burial chambers, care for them, and clean them. It showcases love and connection beyond realms, a less grim attitude toward death. #WyrdWednesday

Lin King, who translated Yang Shuang-zi's #TaiwanTravelogue from Mandarin to English, charges an European publisher for copyright infringement over commissioning a translator who cannot read Mandarin to create a third-language translation using King's English text, original footnotes, and afterword.
How is a translated work distinct from the original work? In literature, there is no such thing as an “objectively accurate” translation. Even this statement you are reading can be translated into millions of word permutations. Language is an imprecise human creation that evolves, imprecisely, over time. This is a concept that the public understands in the context of classical texts like The Odyssey, but less deference is paid to a translator’s creative authority in contemporary literature.

一部翻譯作品,如何與原著是不同的個體?翻譯文學中,並沒有所謂「客觀精準」的標準答案。就連您正在閱讀的這段文字,也能被翻譯成數百萬種用字組合。語言本身就是人類創造的不精準產物,且隨著時間不精準地演化。對於《奧德賽》這類古典作品的不同譯本,大眾似乎都能理解這個概念,但是面對當代文學,譯者的創作自主權卻鮮有對等的尊重。

Prehistoric fridge! This approximately 4,000-year-old storage vessel once served as a kind of fridge. It was kept in a pit and sealed with a wooden lid, likely to store perishable food. Unfortunately, there weren't any residues left to tell us exactly what was stored inside. 🧵1/2 📷 me

A multi-genre anthology born from The Queer Muslim Project initiative, "On the Brink of Belief" features South Asian LGBTQIA+ authors who depict the multitude of queer experiences through the lens I'm culturally familiar with: from djinn and shakchunni to family drama and bathroom taboo. #Booksky
A photograph of a book titled On the Brink of Belief, with the editor's name Kazim Ali at the bottom. The book cover is white with images of two queer people walking together arm in arm, another couple embracing each other in a heart shape, three people gathering in celebratory gestures and raising their hands, and one pointing an arrow to the sky. The illustration is dominated by pink and green colors.
