ok so one of my Hungarian faves has released this new song today and their songs are always very spiritual and philosophical
so I was listening to it and I almost exploded because of this lyrics (translation mine and wonky)

well. guess who came to mind
Genly if he tried writing immediately upon arriving on Gethen
My craft PENETRATED the outer atmosphere and flew from the heavens in a SHAFT of light. I had landed on Gethen. Upon exiting the COCKpit I was greeted by a fisherman -- sorry, fisherperson. He - sorry, this person - asked me what the devil I thought I was doing. I was rock hard with confidence and alien intrigue. Even after reading the seminal -- I mean semen -- shit, formative -- work of the first Invesigators I cannot help but see this person as a man, then a damnable effeminate woman. His breasts jiggled violently and his cheeks clapped as he waddled up to me with the gait of having birthed 200 children.
should I do a TLHOD reread where I read the original and the Hungarian translation simultaneously? (and tbh The Dispossessed too, I haven't finished the Hungarian edition yet)
Run away further, it's Bad Love

best thing i've learned from UKLG currently is that you can reuse motifs across bodies of work, and people actually go crazy for that
