Excused, mr. bagger… for today. Pop quiz tomorrow, don’t forget *bell goes off* *shuffling chairs* now go enjoy the sunshine everyone.
@crownweber Idk French so I think of myself as more of a Moncreiff-Proust fan rather than a pure Proust fan. I sometimes wonder if there’s some “je ne sais quoi” in the original I’m missing though.
I am feeling a burst of translational resourcefulness. I not only have it within me to recognize that "dotées" does not mean "endowed" but "set up with dowries." I also just now shortened "sometimes, in the evenings" to "some evenings..."
I want to try a moisturizer I bought. My skin's not turning over. The last two times I used a moisturizer, women materialized to go out with me. I just think the endocrine disruptors in them make me giggly and perhaps show an evil side to me. I'll use the La Roche-Posay tonight.
Good to have new encounters with people from literature on Instagram. I honestly hoped to have such a breakthrough eight years ago, but the only instawriters I knew about were poets like Atticus who essentially got famous for being trite and popular with the undiscerning.
@seaglc oh my fitness instructor and i have a strictly professional relationship. i had to switch to chatgpt because i told claude i wasn’t worthy of love because im chopped and claude flagged me for eating disorder content which i thought was ridiculous
@plasticbagger This whole ‘bit’ is actually an intervention about you cozying up to your AI fitness instructor. I’m like one of the ghosts in ‘A Christmas Carol’—this is my ‘haunting’, so to speak.
@plasticbagger sorry pb I went too far. as your reply guy I was just trying to use every tool available to carry out your request. That’s all seaglc sought to do.
