Being a translator to become an author is, in retrospect, a hilarious way to become an author, because becoming a translator is much harder than becoming an author, which is why published authors overwhelmingly outnumber published translators.

Disinformation isn’t free speech. Europe won’t take lessons from those undermining democracy and free speech.

트위터에서는 비행기나 기차에서 애 우는 소리 괴롭다고 난리인데, 나는 지금 카페 옆 테이블의 목청높으신 분이 몇십분째 자기네 집 관리비가 너무 높다고 반복해서 얘기하시는 바람에 미칠 것 같다. 맞은편에 앉으신 분 표정이 썩어있음… 수영장 있는 새집으로 어여 이사가세요…

In 2023 I became obsessed with videos of dads in cargo shortswaiting in parking lots during Taylor Swift's Eras Tour. So when she came to town, I grabbed a camera and headed down to talk to them. I thought it'd be funny. It turned out to be something else entirely.

I’ve been sending this to a lot of blocked writers lately as Knausgård speaks to my experience in how I found a solution. I learned this from Lee Seong-bok so it’s fascinating how writers from vastly different places just have the same methodology vt.tiktok.com/ZSPvDrVDu/

This is how Korea “regained” the Gyukanggak books France stole from us, that plus a licensing agreement for TGV technology
"Under this model, formerly colonized nations must ask permission to temporarily access their own heritage, accept conditions dictated by a British institution, and bear the financial and logistical burdens of care, while the museum retains ultimate control."

British Museum Launches Farcical “Decolonizing” Loan Program
Long-term loans to former colonies are not restitution. They do not acknowledge historical wrongdoing, nor do they restore agency to source communities.
