crying laughing @ this edition of le fantôme de l'opéra that my dad got me for christmas it's just. i don't know how to describe it. every page is a scan of a page of the 1926 edition, with like 1-2 inches of margin around it??? and the letters are so small and the scan is not of very great quality so it's kind of hard to see the words?? interspersed with scans of pictures but some of them are upside down??? there's one page where the scan didn't really work in the upper left corner so it's just totally black???

the back of the book says

Le présent ouvrage s'inscrit dans une politique de conservation patrimoniale des ouvrages de la littérature Française mise en place avec la BNF. HACHETTE LIVRE et la BNF proposent ainsi un catalogue de titres indisponibles, la BNF ayant numérisé ces œuvres et HACHETTE LIVRE les imprimant à la demande.

(my rough translation: This publication is in line with a policy instituted in conjunction with the BNF (National Library of France) for the conservation of important works of French literature. In service of this goal, Hachette Livre and the BNF are offering a catalogue of unavailable titles digitized by the BNF which Hachette Livre will print upon request.)

so like this is on purpose but i have so many questions. first of all why the margins. okay i guess that is my most important question. why not just make the book correspond to the size of the pages in the original? or, if the size of the book is fixed, you could at least size up the images to use as much of that wasted space as possible, no?

i want to say how ridiculous this is and how there's no market for it but there clearly is one because i asked my dad to get it for me! i'm the market!! i told him to buy this edition because it was the only french-language print edition i could find to buy in the us for less than $50 (outside of amazon because fuck amazon). but like, why is that the case? the full text of this book, in plain text which could easily and legibly be printed, is available for free on the internet. why isn't there some publisher who's just printing that out and binding it? seems easier to do than printing scans. not to mention a lot easier to read!!

(to see what i'm talking about, go to the hachette BNF webpage for this book and click on feuilleter to download a sample of the pages in PDF)

#is there like. some copyright reason??? i'm really baffled by this #i get needing to scan the pictures but the text??? #even if you wanted to preserve the page numbers and so forth i'm sure you could make that happen... #just print it in the same font with the same page size as the original. right??? i feel like i'm losing my mind here #it's just. this is an extremely famous work of literature and a manipulable printable plain text version is available for free #on the internet. why is no one printing that??? or why is everyone charging so much money for it??? #books #french #my posts #oftentimes when i'm trying to order a work of classic french lit from my local bookstore #the hachette bnf version comes up in the search results. and sometimes it's the only version that does #i've always avoided buying one though because i could tell there was something off about them. the covers look very... #idk. unprofessional? not unprofessional but clearly they are not important. no one is trying to make them appealing #so i was like. not at all confident that they would be any good. but i finally decided to get one because there were no other options #and lo and behold i open it up. and it's this. i guess i was right to judge this book by its cover #gonna try to read this now because i certainly won't be able to read it when i'm old and my near eyesight is bad lol #my near eyesight is already getting worse so i better get cracking

Slam ends here. This is the only thing that matters right now.

if we don't get Mika performing at the Paris 2024 olympics in some way shape or form, I'm going to be very disappointed

#mika #mikasounds #seriously though the ENERGY he would bring to an opening or closing ceremony #like eurovision meets disneyland paris pride energy. you can't lose #and he'll have a french album out by then (she said hopefully. he's been approving final mixes so it has to be soon right?) #but he's already got some french bangers and bops #i know he sang blame it on the girls at the london olympics during beach volleyball #(if there is a video of that somewhere pls share <3) #so there's a precedence #put our boy on the main stage you won't regret it

Rafa cheering from the bench during Roger's match against Kyrgios.

#Just Rafa being super chill while watching his husband playing #he lost about 10 years of life expectancy during that match #and now all i can think of is 2009 Rafa doing the same at home watching Roger's final at the French Open #why do i keep hurting myself like this #rafael nadal #roger federer #fedal #laver cup

Question before I start doing the appliance polls again (making polls is tedious and a long process and I have my finals this week and I can't even)

#i want to know #my french final opens tomorrow #my final research paper is due tomorrow #im way behind on all of my tournaments #im way behind in french #im behind in most of my classes #today i failed a physics test #one of my exams is on monday and i am not prepared #theres a dance on saturday that no one invited me to and people turned me down to #next thursday is another exam #i have two more the week after that #im even behind on reading fanfiction #i cant ever live up to my mother's expectations #this is probably a cry for help #idk though #what would i know #im pretty dumb on the best of days #anyways #not a poll poll #not an update #poll #polls

“Today, I got to feel how it is to play against you in the final, and it’s not easy and I’m not the first victim so, I know that there have been many before...”

🐞 miraculous ladybug was ong the sole reason of me being a weird mf like I used to watch that shit once it aired in 69 languages since I was like 8 I'd stay up on fucking school nights too! Idk I've projected Marinette into myself like crazy I thought homegirl was the best mf ever for years 💯💯 🐞

🐞 Do NOT let ur kids watch miraculous don't even watch it at all. it's shit asf bro like us miraculers only watch out of spite ig wtf what I mean is we're USED to it if I started mlb like at my grown ahh age I would have never liked it - its so ass with zero development or writing it's like an actual example of wasted potential with all of these great characters tossed like that fr 🐞

🐞 Like I have other interests but I STILL watch miraculous fr even the bugs are miraculous coded 🐞

🐞 What liking miraculous ladybug does to a mf 🐞

🐞 2020 ⬆️⬆️🐞

🐞 2021 ⬆️⬆️🐞

🐞 you guess ⬆️⬆️🐞

🐞 yeah I'm finna go sleep 🐞

#MIRACULOUS SIMPLY THE BEST UP TO THE TEST WHEN THINGS GO WRONG #when u keep the opening theme in 5 languages #miraculous ladybug #mlb THE FRENCH CARTOON NOT THE BASKETBALL SHIT IDK #mlb #ml #fanart #cringe eras #boo boo tomato tomato #why are u doing this to your nine followers bubs #I think I'm finally understanding tumblr #anime #miraculous ladybug crossovers are annoying #MARINETTE X THE ENTIRE DC VERSE WHAT #ladybug #chat noir #CHAT NOT CAT #bubs favorites #I'm a very cool and fun artist #chat blanc #YOU JUST GOT MIRACULOUSED

also robin is such a verbal processor, it drives me crazy, i love it so much

#ooc. #as a fellow verbal processor i have no choice but to love it #but i think it kind of goes hand in hand with her just not being able to stop talking #you see her talking through what happened with vickie to steve in family vvideo #when she's going on about rabies and the signs and trying to help steve while he's hurt #when she finally feels comfortable enough to really unmask and be herself around people it's just open season i think #but like 95% of the time at least she HAS to talk things through to process them #even if the only way she can talk through them is in a journal or a letter than she never sends #*that #like speaking of she writes a letter in french to tammy in rebel robin just going through her feelings #like never intending for her to read it or anything #and i think that's a good sign of verbal processing too tbh

Coco has nothing to be ashamed of losing to the world number 1, who's in an amazing form these last few months. Congratulations to Iga on her second RG title and 35th consecutive victory. She's simply incredible and she fully deserves it! Good luck to both of these girls on more finals!

I was doing research about housing today and I really want to get involved in volunteering when I graduate #cor.txt
