Bit of casual sexism from a map seller on Etsy... Whaddya mean "gift for him"?!

UN leaders condemn ‘horrifying’ mass killings in Sudan Emergency security council session criticises killings of civilians in El Fasher and external supply of arms to RSF

Staggering atrocities in Sudan.

Following the mass slaughter of nearly 500 men, women, and children at a maternity hospital, UN officials say: "The situation is simply horrifying... El Fasher, already the scene of catastrophic levels of human suffering, has descended into an even darker hell."

The eternal #freelance rollercoaster... From "shit, am I unemployed?" to "shit, how am I going to get all this work done?" in the space of hours.

I haven’t been this excited for a bubble to burst since I was a toddler.

Sunset? I have to say I'm not too familiar with the concept of 'sunrise'.

How lovely, congratulations!!

Amazing! I think I'd miss the occasional Friday though. Hanging in there thanks, still no post-editing and pondering plans B-Z to avoid it should it come hammering at my door...

Maybe she'd like my favourite joke from childhood:

What did the earwig say on the way to the football match?

Earwig-go, earwig-go, earwig-go (here we go) 😅

Adding this to my (very limited) repertoire!

Aww thank you! Glad to be back, I was missing Translator Twitter! Hope you're happy and well 😊

Hi Chris! Congrats on the retirement, hope you're enjoying your newfound freedom!

Jajaja ¡me encanta este GIF!

Solo puedo decir que seguimos siendo muchísimas más las personas que no colaboramos ni con el opresor ni con sus herramientas y tenemos las hipotecas felizmente pagadas. Habría que preguntarle a quienes organizan estos despropósitos si pueden decir lo mismo (y a ver qué tal duermen). Qué tristeza.

We should stop using the term "translating" when we are talking about what automatic translation systems can do. What they do is processing texts (to try and replicate it using words from a different language). Translating is a human ability.

You too! I've missed everyone

Is this where we're all hanging out these days, then? Where are all my #translator friends?
