beans on toast

my favourite rendition of The Internationale! seeing the purges and massacres of the communists that brought the CPC to the brink (i think?) contrasted by the red flag and The Internationale gives me goosebumps every time

oh and i somewhat know the lyrics bc i’ve listened to it so many times lol

wait there was a minecraft server??

see my reply to @mayo_cider (and my post edit)

also thanks for the insults

i edited the post to clarify the nature of these interactions (TLDR: further escalation is highly unlikely but maybe avoid making it sound like an insult)

honestly i don’t want to directly say that i’m not afraid to escalate (otherwise i would’ve used English insults) but i still want to say something without them ending the exchange as if they were able to say what they said/do what they did with no consequences.

usually i just stay quiet and ignore them, but i know that i shouldn’t be afraid to talk back and that not talking back usually enables them to do it again (if we pass by on a regular basis)

basically i want to end the exchange with something they could take as an insult but will never know the nature of to confuse/slightly irritate them that they aren’t able to properly take offence with it i guess

“teu cu” seems fine for me and doesn’t sound insulting in English too, so thanks!

thanks! “christer” sounds good. looked at the Wikipedia and “toton”, “torrieu” and “marde” sounded cool too

is there really a whole system to Quebecois insults? didn’t think there were different levels to it too lol

lmao

so that’s where it comes from

huh that’s cool

yay more toki pona

ni li nasin “Trinity” pi nasin sewi Kolisu a!

lmao i just realised what you meant

lol that content warning was pretty good

oh i can see that too. well I added it in the post just in case too

thanks!

oh my bad, i completely forgot about that part

i’ll fix that now

miku singing the internationale

some thoughts:

as a product, Miku as modern-era folklore is designed to sell for her parent company. her purpose is to literally make money for a company that owns notable portions of her identity (voice, technically most of her designs, some commercial rights).

but also, Miku has been used in so many different environments (the video talks about this) with her reach containing so little influence to her parent company that she could be argued to be “owned” by the people. most practical uses of Miku are free to use (or not enforced copyright-wise) and that’s one of the main reasons she’s applied in so many different ways.

compared to corporations like say Disney that also create characters to sell - but hold significant sway on what the characters are and what they mean - they can and have historically been used as a system of oppression (eg. Cold War propaganda), but Miku and other community-run franchises (eg. Touhou) are very much aligned with communism.

yeah i’m gonna shut up now

i use gogoanime (domain moved to anitaku.to)
idk if it’s the best, though, it’s mainly what i use to watch anime (+ allanime.to)
