【言語オタクあるある】 アルファベットで書かれた名前を見たら「この人の名前は○○語で、原語では☆☆と発音するけど、英語式だと△△という発音になるだろうな」という思考が自動で展開される
言語オタクじゃない人々、生活していて視界の中に発音すらわからない言語が度々現れるんでしょ?不快そう

oh man I was so annoyed when the eaton centre replaced the two-sided store directory maps with interactive digital kiosks, as the kiosks are super inefficient — instead of 3-5 people looking at the map at a time, only one person could. little did I know they were scraping my face

Was in the news today. The main takeaway I want ppl to get from my tweet re: harassment is that it doesn't matter what accolades I may have or how recognizable I am in this city etc... fundamentally I'm a Black Woman & no external factors shield me from experiencing racism.

I drew a slice-of-life comic about a Chinese-Canadian family. Among other things, it explores how second-gen children, who grew up speaking English, communicate with their Chinese-speaking grandma! teapawt.net/flutterdoodle/status/1…

为什么要讲blacklivesmatter而不是alllivesmatter,因为黑人的种族不止是被歧视那么简单,其中还有300余年的奴隶血泪史,黑人并不是外来人口,而是被戴着枷锁来到那片土地的,因此,不要代入自己受过的歧视去平等化别人受过的歧视。

Yesterday - @fordnation TRIED to claim that Canada doesn't have 'deep roots' of systemic racism. Systemic Anti-Black and anti-Indigenous racism is REAL in Ontario, Doug. Try LISTENING for once. My Members statement is below. ⬇️⬇️ #BlackLivesMatter #JusticeForRegis #onpoli

Before pandemic, delivery workers told us that average tip was about $2 per order - which is stingy in normal times. These are NOT normal times. Tip really freaking well and make sure your interactions are safe for the workers too. #DeliverJustice

Yup, more of that famous Canadian politeness. I hope this crisis allows the West to take a good look at all of their nationalist propaganda narratives. COVID-19: Korean consulate issues warning after violent attacks in Montreal montreal.ctvnews.ca/covid-19…

Fucking Yikes. $80 an episode??? When I do video subbing, it's like $20~$25/min. Even mate's rates are $10~12/min. So CR pays what? $3~4/min? A 20 min video is easily a full day's work. Subbing is A WHOLE LOT HARDER than "just translating". (1/7)

the natural enemy of a capable translator is someone who knows half as much of the language as you do enough for them to point out to the lay audience all the places you've made an unorthodox decision, but not smart enough to understand WHY it was the right move
