Btw much as I love to make fun of twitter and reddit's business decisions, I have 0% trust in tumblr's management to not go a similar route so this is your gentle reminder that you should regularly go to your blog settings to export your blog. That's a fancy way of saying you can download a backup of your blog so if everything goes down you'll still have a backup of your posts & convos.

The Japanese pronunciation is also homophonous with 兵器, which … means weapon. Very in keeping with murderbot calling itself murderbot. Kudos to that translation choice, truly.

google translate defaulting to chinese at first

okay but for those of us with interests in both the murderbot and the daomu biji fandoms this is kinda hilarious
(english-side-only really, i get that the kanji and hanzi are completely different)

our good (air)ship murderbot! thanks google

kinda funny when online discourse can be refuted with ‘I was literally there’

I am sure this has been done before, but I am curious what the census in the XIV Tumblr community is! Please answer for what you mainly play!
Maybe I can do polls based on the two clans for each race?
#poll has timed out but lemme add a Roegadyn vote anyway#I do have an Au Ra alt though#they're almost of a height and i think that's hilarious#ffxiv#q

This poll is asking about general walkability, not your personal habits– if there is a supermarket nearby but you do not or cannot personally walk there, vote according to what a hypothetical able-bodied person would be able to do.
We ask your questions anonymously so you don’t have to! Submissions are open on the 1st and 15th of the month.
#polls#tumblr census#I've never lived anywhere i didn't have at least one supermarket in 15 minutes walking distance#(same as prev)#Europe and Asia both#though i will say i barely considered one of them walkable in summer at 34°C and 95% humidity#(cycling was fine)#q

Tataru and Krile are my favourites so I drew them having tea together at the Last Stand in Old Sharlayan!

However bad you think English AI-generated subtitles are, I assure you the results for ANY other language are markedly worse.
Anyway. I cancelled my gaga subscription and let them know EXACTLY why in the form, and if you don't want the already-shitty quality of their subtitles to further deteriorate I suggest you do the same.
