Devastated by the news from Syria tonight that my friend and one of my favorite authors Khaled Khalifa has passed away. الله يرحمه ❤️

Confession. I’m very afraid of dogs and that makes people think I’m mean. I’m not, it’s a phobia. But it also feels very dangerous to take my trash out in case the neighbor opens their door and their dogs run up to say hi. I interpret that as the dog trying to kill me.

@sawadhussain @translationtalk I always listen to music but never with lyrics. Movie scores is my go to! It makes rewatching the movies a bit funny sometimes because the work I’ve been translating is forever tied to the music. So whenever I hear the Harry Potter score I (also) see Khalifa’s Syria 🙃
