Regulus Headcanon:

He knows a bunch of languages, it was something he was interested in and he actually learned them unlike Sirius. Pandora is Greek and sometimes she will ramble in Greek and Regulus matches her. Remus speaks Dutch and more often then not uses it for cursing but Regulus call him out every time. Lily learned German and gets really frustrated when Regulus knows it too. Hogwarts may have people from all over but generally Regulus can understand basically anyone it’s his biggest flex.

But he doesn’t know Hindi and of course that is the language James speaks. And Regulus doesn’t understand him. It drives him crazy. But James loves speaking Hindi to Regulus because he knows that Regulus doesn’t understand him.

Dorcas: How do I look?

Marlene: Tu eres magnífica.

Dorcas:

James: Mals, that spanish

Marlene, blushing: Du bist großartig

Peter: German, not even close.

Marlene: Fuck off!

James: and we are back to english!

Dorcas: Wait, how many languages you know?

Marlene: four, english, german, spanish and tagalog.

Dorcas: oh [starts mentally preparing the wedding venue]

#my spanish is not good and I forgot all of my german so you have to forgive me #I like to think that since they grew up Peter James and Marlene #they can talk to each other in english german and spanish #since Peter is half german half british #Marlene in half german half filipono #which means she also speak tagalog #and James is half latino half desi #which means he also knows hindi #Sirius Regulus Evan and Dorcas can speak french #Remus knows welsh (bc Lyall) and polish (bc Hope) #Lily is half scottish #and Barty is half italian #so they are also bilingual #marauders #incorrect marauders and co quotes #incorrect marauders quotes #james potter #dorcas meadowes #marlene mckinnon #peter pettigrew #dorlene

Strange Trails + Titles Cards

#ok but I ADORE the title cards they use for their music videos #its such a little detail but it gives the songs/videos so much personality #plus I love the recurring themes of film/tv of a bygone era #the Hindi in the second gif is dead man's hand btw #lord huron #lord huron gif #lord huron gifs #lord huron strange trails #strange trails #the world ender #the night we met #fool for love #dead man's hand #dani speaks

I love how in Mass Effect, sometimes aliens will say words that don't get translated by in-universe translators, like bosh'tet, or siha, or korbal, though mainly it's assumed that they don't have an equivalent in human languages

And then you have James, who just speaks Spanish words randomly and it doesn't get translated. Does the translator just choose to ignore whenever James speaks Spanish? Is Spanish not a language considered to get translated? Am I overthinking what is basically a writing quirk they just did for James?

#Sometimes I think that John could get away with speaking Hindi because everyone has translators #But then James is literally out here with Spanish phrases and words #That don't get translated into English #Oh well. This isn't really a serious thought lol #Mass Effect

9th grade me thought I wasn't pretty because of my height, slight acne and thicker thighs

LOL This samridhi is screaming okay. Nobody needs validation by anyone or something.

You are an amazing person, filled with so many wonderful things, love indulging in the things you love and are talented in so many things. There are things you know, people who love you and admire you so much

AND YOU ALL ARE FUCKING BEAUTIFUL OKAY DON'T LET ANYONE TAKE THAT FROM YOU

#samridhi speaks #I was looking at myself in the mirror I have dance class in 30 mins #amd it sunk in #I am pretty I always was #6th grafer me with her hormonal acne was cool knowing old hindi songs and dancing #9th grader me was fun and was a start for future me to dabble in dance and writing #she was lovely as she was she was good

Hindi songs that are so sskk core to me

“I can’t live without you now,

What is my worth without you?

If I got separated from you,

Then I’ll get separated from myself.

Because you’re the one,

Now you’re the one,

Now my life consists of you,

My peace and my pain,

You alone are my love.”

—Tum Hi Ho, Aashiqui 2

“I love/adore you so much,

A hundred times in one moment,

If you leave me and go,

I’ll just wait for my death—

Because for you I have left the universe behind,

My breath stops at you,

I want you more than anything,

You couldn’t even imagine.”

—Soch Na Sake, AIRLIFT

“Your sky, and mine,

Has become all smoke, like a dream,

Your sky, and mine,

Is spread in parts, like breaths…

Wherever you go,

You’ll find me only,

These shadows of mine are comprised in you,

I am a planet now, and you’re a planet too,

And we shall meet again,

In the world of stars now.”

—Saiyaara, Ek Tha Tiger

“You sleep in my sleep,

You cry in my tears,

There is a whisper in my thoughts,

Even if you’re not here it seems like you are,

You’re the disposition of my pain,

They are the prayers of my heart…all the ways leading back to you.”

—Galliyan, Ek Villain

#everyone should listen to these songs NEOW #Soch na sake specifically is near and dear to me. it’s a lovely song #the translations are hard to nail down especially since #a.) I’m not Indian I don’t speak Hindi I can only understand the gists of it #and b.) it’s hard to nail down the nuances of the meaning in English #but these songs are so so good and they are so sskk core #something about being one with the other like the universe meant for you to be together #bungou stray dogs #bungo stray dogs #sskk #shin soukoku

the archies movie is set pieces moving across the screen in coordinated dance moves while halfway decent music plays in the background.

Some people are not ready for the discussion about the handful of people pretending to be Palestinians for the clout in their movements and circles.

#@ my TA #the woman is Desi #and then all of a sudden became palestinian in November #this dude Diego at my school did the same thing #is there a word for this is psychology #transracial weirdness #madam you speak Hindi #and want to make your dad angry #good time to mention i knew her before this like she is literally Desi and a hashtag rebel #so anyways shes speaking for palestinians to the anthro department #like not even a Palestinian can speak on behalf of all Palestinians and here she is
