“Dedma” Has Been An Interesting Word For Me. I Never Personally Used It But It’s Been On My Mind
“Dedma” has been an interesting word for me. I never personally used it but it’s been on my mind for the longest time.
ignoring • the act of ignoring • feigning unawareness • short for "dead malice"
Like it doesn’t just mean ignoring!! It is used with the assumption that someone did you wrong. Like it specifically has something to do with someone who you are trying to be petty with. It’s inherently petty.
It’s interesting to me that we had to create words like these to describe this specific action. We couldn’t just say, “pabayaan mo na.” NO.
We created and use this word because we feel the need to acknowledge or recognize the idea that we are deliberately ignoring someone to keep our own peace, when in fact, we are being petty as hell.
Don’t you think that’s fucking interesting? We are so obsessed with the image of our lives that we try to describe our own experiences for other people in fear of them mischaracterizing us. We have to shape our slangs and language around the idea of being perceived.
We can’t just say we’re ignoring someone. No, we have to say that we’re ignoring them in spite of their shitty attitude. We have to make sure that we are in the right. This slang was so intentionally created for the sake of the “bigger person”.
That shit is interesting to me. To me, personally, I can never use this word because I can never be so petty, though I wish I could. “Dedma.” Wow. Using this word really does give you the image of the bigger person.

“ships should at least make sense.” no. ships can make sense, sure. but they’re just fictional characters we play with for fun. they’re fantasies, not a fucking thesis paper. so no, they don’t always have to make sense. they just have to make you happy (or horny).
let people enjoy (fictional) things however they want to enjoy.
Finally getting into les mis :)

idk if anyone’s done this before but
Feeling normal about Javert and Eponine today
one more thing about modern aus is that they'll go on about enjolras giving these long inspiring speeches for the majority of the vague meetings about the undefined cause which is so. in the books he is not on the stage preaching to everyone during most of the pre-barricade scenes. like its kind of made a point that he is either having actual conversations or just listening to what everyone else is saying. like yes he does give orders and instructions that he'll pre-face with a little speech but like. normally he's listening to others opinions before giving his own two cents. i think sometimes people just see the word leader and they can't imagine a version of that that isn't someone else forcing their thoughts and will onto a group of people.
This is an abridged arabic edition of Les Misérables with Arabic and English translation, Published in (2018)
It contains the entire story in 277 pages.
This edition is intended to learn English only bc the Arabic translation is accurate while the English translation is very simplified, so it is great for reading and learning at the same time for Arabic speakers!
The funny thing about it is that this edition contains only 15 chapters with the important parts of the story bc you know it is an abridged edition.
..and despite that, there is a chapter for the PARIS SEWERS.
Here is a translation of the chapter names:
