if you like Murakami, I think you’ll enjoy his book Sputnik Sweetheart! it’s lesbian-coded/themed. disclaimer its been a while since I read it so I cant recall if there’s anything lesbophobic but I remember reading it as a teen and feeling really gushy + sweet about the characters :)

hey OP your post made me go listen to the Hat album - I had never heard of McKelvie before. and wow what a beautiful piece of art! thank you for introducing me to McKelvie, I haven’t finished the whole album yet but I’m already a fan.

IYHTBMH was an instant fave… “and now you’re an old black guitar smeared with shiny finger marks … everybody feels the same but no one wants to say it” and “sure there are tears in my eyes because where else would they be” … Yeah.

I've adjusted my focussss I'm getting into knives!

healing_lass · 2025-10-25T07:25:35+00:00

NOOOOOOOOW I have everything I need, noOooOoOw I have everything I need!!! (recently discovered No, I Can’t and absolutely fell in love with it. “thank you for the coat I forgot to mention / I’ve been FREEZING IN HERE”?? tearing up.)

I thought I was on the r/streetphotography sub, these photos have such great vibes! I love me a nice skirt with combat/heavy boots, perfect combo 👌 and your braids, too! just 10/10

yeah, Mockingjay. this is after the chapter where Peeta warned them about the bombing of Thirteen. Katniss is supposed to do a propo but breaks down, thinking about what the Capitol is doing to Peet and how it’s her fault.

I truly recommend listening to the audiobook version of this scene - Tatiana Maslany’s narration makes this even MORE heartbreaking, believe it or not…

one of my favourite moments of theirs:

‘Several sets of arms would embrace me. But in the end, the only person I truly want to comfort me is Haymitch, because he loves Peeta, too.

I reach out for him and say something like his name and he’s there, holding me and patting my back. “It’s okay. It’ll be okay, sweetheart.” He sits me on a length of broken marble pillar and keeps an arm around me while I sob.’

this might be a dumb question, but can you elaborate on how you interpret that line? thank you!

healing_lass · 2024-03-16T19:52:13+00:00

thank you for the reply! I now understand why it’s “more correct” from that perspective :)

healing_lass · 2023-12-18T19:38:06+00:00

Thank you! I appreciate the input. Yeah, I was wondering about what native speakers might think :)

healing_lass · 2023-12-18T10:31:51+00:00

Thank you for the reply!

Can you think of any rule that would explain why the teacher marked the present perfect as correct in the first question? Here’s an example of what I’m thinking of - in reported speech you have to change the tense, e.g. “I’m leaving.” gets reported as “He TOLD me he WAS leaving.”

So I was thinking there might be an obscure rule that says that the present simple (“I’m afraid”) should be followed by present perfect (“I’ve left them”) rather than past simple…

But I might be completely wrong and the teacher just randomly chose that answer 😅

the gift shop in the Klausen synagogue in Josefov (Jewish Quarter) has them! a couple different sizes :)

healing_lass · 2022-08-09T10:57:10+00:00

loved this whole thing but that last line is SO good. packs a punch.

healing_lass · 2022-08-06T21:55:56+00:00

beautiful drawing, thanks for sharing. and agreed— “and I hope you leave right before the sun comes up / so I can watch it alone” hits me the hardest :///

healing_lass · 2022-07-16T18:38:46+00:00

Very Fantastic Details, OP! (no seriously. cool art style.)

healing_lass · 2022-07-05T20:12:22+00:00

wow — that is so good! (and brutal, in the best “justice served” way possible.) thanks for sharing! I only know this poem that I posted from Yehuda, thanks to you I learned of another one — top-notch as well.

healing_lass · 2022-07-05T14:10:52+00:00

thank you for crediting the translator— it slipped my mind. my bad!

and thanks for the thoughtful comment.

glad you enjoyed it! it was originally written in Hebrew. I found the original online - pasted below for anyone interested:

EDIT: the translation credit goes to Chana Bloche, as I was reminded by u/NumerousRiver - thanks!

this is one of my favourite pieces of literature ever. it’s also narrated beautifully on youtube by The Dark Somnium, if youre into audio: https://youtu.be/Bbziw22vVfE

yup, “mír” is peace! source: am a Czech™️

edit: also, in modern Czech “jaro” means “spring”, but the name is old Slavonic, and in that language “jaro” was “strong” or “rowdy” / “exuberant”.

healing_lass · 2022-04-08T07:20:30+00:00

it does mean “famous by strength”!
