This meme is inescapable on French insta so I'm posting it here for all to enjoy
Just so you know
1) This isn’t a real talk show, it’s a satirical program called Groland. Sadly our real journalists don’t really understand anything about the trans community
2) a more correct way to translate the last sentence would be “shut up”, or maybe more “shut the fuck up” (“ta gueule” is the most vulgar way to tell someone to stop talking in French)

#tag laterCGI animators should unionize next. normally, their jobs would be too precarious to strike, since studios would replace them without a second thought, but if it's part of this larger general film strike, they might finally have meaningful power to better their working conditions
if CGI animators unionized, it would kill the MCU. straight up. the the entire business model is built on exploiting CGI animators
THEY ARE TRYING!!!!! SIGN THE PETITION TO GET THE DISNEY ANIMATORS' UNION RECOGNIZED
this petition is from IATSE (union), btw! it actually has credibility, unlike most change.org/etc petitions! please sign it!!
ALTStrike is on. Actors will be joining the writers on the picket lines. This is the first strike in 60 years for SAG, and essentially shuts down the entire US film and television industry.
I have sympathy I swear
But if you accused me of insincerity I don't know what I'd say
Somniphobia, the other side of the sphere
Since Twitter is practically unusable, I'm going to become more active here. I've got quite some content to post :)

I'm curious, why did you decide to write Moon the way you did- not personality wise, but speaking in short (directish?) sentences? I really like that detail about him! (Also how, it's kinda hard T.T)
thedemonscrawler answered:
Part of the inspiration came from good ol’ Solar Lunacy. I think he’s a little more verbose in the fic itself, but especially in the comics Bam does, he has that direct way of speaking that caught my attention.
In roleplay I’d already worked with a character that I’d given a similar clipped speaking style, so for Moon I dialed it up to 11. It’s been really fun!
And oh absolutely |D it definitely gets tricky sometimes. There’s a couple of rules I more or less follow, though of course I’ll go with exceptions if that’s what flows.
So really what Moon does most of the time is jump straight to the subject of a sentence. For example, this bit from chapter 10:
We’ve cut down the question “do you want to switch?” To just the most important part. He does this a lot when asking or answering questions, usually followed up by a more normal, but still short sentence.
He also tends to drop the pronouns at the start of sentences, or words like ‘that’ or 'have’. This rule probably gets the most exceptions because sometimes a pronoun is needed anyway. This bit also from 10 demonstrates that, as well what was said above.
(Fun fact! The only time Moon uses the word “I” is when he says “I know”. Otherwise he always drops it from the sentence.)
If Moon can condense a thought down to a certain phrase, he does. Hence his use of “rulebreaker”, “intruder”, “Naptime”, etc. It’s really all about efficiency, and how can you communicate an idea in the fewest words. It also depends on who he’s talking to. He gets away with much, much shorter sentences when talking to Sun than when talking to Gregory, since he and Sun share common knowledge (like how you can repeat just a word or two from a meme your friends are familiar with and they immediately get it).
I hope that explained.. anything 8’“D

hey what if instead of chapter 14 I wrote a non-canon bonus chapter for Sunk Cost huh, how would that go?
