Learning Vamp Dies is getting officially translated by some AI company is a fate worse than death.

It’s so upsetting because there are lots of TL nuances that the machine can’t detect without knowing the context so we get stuff like 兄弟 being translated as “brothers” by AI instead of “siblings” because the machine doesn’t have the context about Himari being mentioned later in the books 💀

Not to mention all the Y-stuff but that probably deserves another post for discussion.

I only skimmed through the first free chapter and it’s so dry and literal. There are some parts that are so plainly clinging to Japanese sentence structure.

I am deeply curious how they even translated Y-dan’s name since AIs suck at puns.

Putting this up again

Bringing this back again because parent's are causing BS and that feeling anxious/feeling dread is back as they're talking about moving again. And hell if I'm going with them. As always, thank you extremely to those who reblogged and were able to spare some cash (especially now a days)

As of now I'm looking for a job again- but haven't gotten any callbacks yet and needing surgery to get a lump out of me :/ and now my car is acting up and not starting at all so that's gonna be a big chunk of cash outta my pocket.

Context for the urgent need to move out, my parents are super homophobic/transphobic and the moment they suspected me of being that my mother pretty much threatened to throw me and all my stuff out of the house. Now that that's passed, she still jokes about wanting to throw me out for little things like not getting up quick enough when she calls me over.

Literally had to lie through my teeth so could continue having a roof over my head. And with them planning to move out of state (expecting me to go with them) is a big NO way in hell. Being in the closet and having to hear them go on and on about how they wished people like me didn't exist makes every day feel like walking on eggshells and being an anxious mess.

I'm even terrified of them knowing I want to move out and stay in our current state cause they'd go for my throat with accusations on WHY I want to stay, when its simply I don't feel (obviously) comfortable with living them anymore when they just loved the idea of me as their child- when they would of abandoned me the instant if didn't fit their image of their perfect child anymore. Anything helps immensely, and I greatly appreciate any help sent my way. I'll draw ocs, selfships, furries, monsters, character refs, and

n.s f.w art (as spicy coms special on my Kofi) and I have every right to refuse anything that makes me uncomfortable.
