#I don’t speak French sorry

[In French] Doigby, Presenter: “But who is this person?

[In French] Étoiles: So the story’s a bit mad, because you have to know that Baghera joined a Minecraft server that she said practically changed her life, which is the QSMP. And basically, the CEO, or the person who made the QSMP, who is a superstar in Mexico, took a plane from Mexico to come here in order to support Baghera. And I find that incredible, it’s Quackity.

[In English] Étoiles: Quackity — how do you feel? Like, it’s amazing, you come all the way from Mexico to come there?

Quackity: Well, I— I flew from Los Angeles, it was a thirteen hour flight, but I’m here to see this incredible event, the French community is amazing. This is an incredible event. And I’m here to uh, root for Baghera and Horty!

[In French] Étoiles: He says that he’s completely— that he finds it impressive just how incredible the event is, that he flew more than thirteen hours by plane to come here, and to, well, to support Baghera and Horty, and that, well, he’s having a wonderful time—“

Marauders quotes as conversations I’ve had

Sirius: *Incoherent mumbling in French*

Remus: What??

Regulus: He’s basically saying fuck you in French

Remus: *Turns to Sirius* Well, fuck you- in English!

I’ve seen a couple of posts about people being hesitant and not really wanting new players joining the qsmp soon + more languages being added, and I understand, but the posts mostly seem to be made by English speaking people and I don’t think they understand how big of a deal this is for some people. The internet is really focused on anglophone creators to the point that if you’re bicultural and living in the US, you will never get recommended a channel that doesn’t speak English, despite English speaking channels getting recommended everywhere else. The trending tab is only filled with English speaking creators. You have never had a problem finding content that’s in your language. That’s not something you have to do. The fact that there might be French creators added to the qsmp is so exciting for me because I will finally have a starting point to discover French creators, I will finally be able to watch content that is in my language. The qsmp is bringing non English speaking creators into the orbit of English viewers and that is so cool. People have started watching the Spanish streamer despite not understanding most of what is being said, they’ve started learning Spanish because they want to be able to interact with the Spanish community. If people are trying to learn French/Portuguese/German they’re going to have access to creators who speak that language!!! I have faith in Quackity that he won’t make the introduction of new players overwhelming, this is going to be so sick.

saw these two screenshots and stopped breathing until I wrote this dumb little role-reversal Lesmand thing:

“Lestat sucked in a sharp breath at the tugging in his hair, eyebrows knitting in annoyance as he moved his hand to grab the offending brush. ‘Ah!’ came Armand’s voice, accompanied by a stinging slap that sent Lestat’s hand right back where it came from. ‘Keep your hands to yourself, garçonnet.’ His words were smooth and quiet as the night, carrying a tone of playful disdain that sent a shiver through his counterpart. Lestat smiled, and when he spoke it was low and dark. ‘Of course, maître.’”

Last month, I also watched the Walt Disney Animation Studios’ 100th Anniversary short film Once Upon A Studio, and I loved it.

It’s not the story I liked most; it was nice and cute, but nothing revolutionary or unexpected. What I loved was seeing and hearing all these familiar characters, especially the 2D-animated ones, again. I’m a fan of hand-drawn animation and really miss it, so I was happy to experience it once more, even if it was only for a few minutes.

I love traditional animation because it’s always felt more magical and “personal” to me. I missed seeing a character on screen and thinking, “I know who drew you”. Here, when Louis (The Princess and The Frog) appeared, I recognized his original supervising animator Eric Goldberg’s work. I also knew that impressive shot of Peter Pan and the Darling siblings flying around the building could only have been animated by James Baxter (his brain works in 3D; I don’t know how he does that but it’s always mind-blowing). And as a fan of Mulan, seeing her not only being animated by Mark Henn, whose style I think is unmistakable and who was her supervising animator in the 1998 movie, but also holding hands and singing with Snow White (the first Disney protagonist) and Asha (the latest Disney protagonist) was quite special and moving.

What’s also great is that you can tell they tried to remain as faithful as possible to each movie’s original visual style, which means characters, for the most part, really look like they’ve just come out of their respective films. Graphically speaking, the numerous protagonists all have their own identity (it clearly was the artists’ goal, and I think they achieved it), but the whole thing still looks surprisingly coherent. The vast majority of the original voice actors are back, which is a very nice touch as well.

I don’t know, I just think the care, skills, and passion of the people who worked on Once Upon A Studio were palpable, and that felt good. Their attention to detail is evident, and as someone who grew up watching hand-drawn animated movies and truly loves the artistry behind them, I appreciate that.
