Three things make a post

***

1. Me when I watch reacters on YT: some of you have grown up by never watching any media not in your native language that has subtitles and it shows. Okay, listen, I know there are a whole variety of reasons why people struggle with subtitles but English language privilege is a thing and if I got a pound every time a reacter went 'omg it's so haaaaaaaaaard to read the subtitles and also follow the mv' I would by now have paid at least half of my monthly energy bill.

2. I have written 30k of fic this year. Please witness.

3. Is anyone interested in betaing 6k of femmeslash? I finally finished the Hustlers (2019 film) post-canon Destiny/Ramona fic. It's barely a T and mostly just them gettinng back together. And then getting together. Mostly I just want a spag check but if you've watched the movie then awesome. If you haven't you should, but you could also watch this awesome fanvid by [personal profile] sisabet. AO3 link here for comments.

Obviously, there are people who have physical issues with subtitles but otherwise I've never understood this.

I *want* to hear the actor's voice which is so much part of their performance, even if I can't understand what they're saying. Dubs always distort this, always. I accidentally caught the first few minutes of Yin-Yang Master dubbed - settings were wrong - and they both sounded like American dude bros.
