"character x cannot handle spice" is a pretty common gag, but what makes the takoyaki scene truly hilarious is the fact that akechi:
goes out of his way to approach a group of people he’s been publicly shitting on for months
provides the flimsiest excuse for why he's interrupting their hangout (checking out the venue? sure, if by "venue" you mean "rival")
proceeds to monologue at them without acknowledging their responses in any capacity
not only helps himself to their food without asking but actively ignores their protests
like. it’s just so flagrantly impolite for someone still masquerading as pleasant boy™. goro akechi you will always be famous.
#goro akechi#shuake#phantom thieves#persona 5#i try not to dunk on akechi’s social gaffes too much because they very much are a product of his isolation#plus he's not exactly on his best behaviour in any of his other interactions with the phantom thieves#but this particular instance is just too much for me#he doesn’t even go for the classic ‘oh wow that looks delicious’ while staring longingly at their food to guilt them into offering him some#nope#he’s just like ‘i��m going to have one of these’. then eats it as several of them try to stop him.#what a guy!#everyone asking themselves for the millionth time why ren is even friends with this guy while ren just sits there like :)#they're fated rivals because ren was trying to figure out how to get akechi to eat the spicy one but akechi beat him to the punch#(i think often of how ren’s jp va wanted to have him goad akechi into eating it. they should’ve let him.)#*

✧・゜: summer study tips for when motivation is low :・゜✧:・゜✧



hey lovelies! ✨
can we just acknowledge how hard it is to focus on studying when the sun is shining, everyone's posting beach pics, and your brain is basically melting from the heat? summer studying feels almost criminal sometimes (like, isn't this when we're supposed to be recharging?), but even if you're taking summer classes, prepping for fall semester, or studying for standardized tests, i've got some helpful tips to help you stay on track without missing out on summer magic.
⋆.ೃ࿔:・ why summer motivation hits different ・:࿔ೃ.⋆
let's be honest about why summer studying feels so much harder:
your body literally craves sunlight and outdoor time
everyone else seems to be living their best vacation life
the heat makes focusing genuinely more difficult
your brain is trained to associate summer with freedom
seasonal rhythms are real, and summer is naturally more active and social
knowing this isn't just you being "lazy" is the first step! your brain isn't broken, it's just responding to both biological and social cues that say "put down the textbook and go outside!"
⋆.ೃ࿔:・ create a summer-friendly study schedule ・:࿔ೃ.⋆
the key is working with summer energy, not against it:
𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘥𝘺 𝘥𝘶𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘦𝘢𝘬 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘵 𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴: use the hottest part of the day (usually 12-3pm) when you'd be inside anyway for your deepest focus work
𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘺 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘮𝘢𝘨𝘪𝘤: if possible, wake up earlier and study when it's cooler and quieter, bonus points for studying outside with birds chirping!
𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘴𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴: aim for 45-minute focused blocks instead of marathon 3-hour sessions (your summer brain will thank you)
𝘵𝘩𝘦 2:1 𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰: for every hour of studying, give yourself 30 minutes of true summer enjoyment as a reward
𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘬𝘭𝘺 𝘧𝘳𝘦𝘦 𝘥𝘢𝘺: designate one day each week as completely study-free to recharge
⋆.ೃ࿔:・ summer-proof your study environment ・:࿔ೃ.⋆
your environment makes all the difference:
𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘢 𝘤𝘰𝘰𝘭 𝘰𝘢𝘴𝘪𝘴: study near a fan or air conditioning with a cold drink nearby
𝘰𝘶𝘵𝘥𝘰𝘰𝘳 𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘥𝘺 𝘴𝘱𝘰𝘵𝘴: find a shaded patio, park bench, or beach setup where you can enjoy nature while studying
𝘴𝘶𝘮𝘮𝘦𝘳 𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘥𝘺 𝘢𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘵𝘪𝘤: bring summer into your study space with fresh flowers, lemon water, and natural light
𝘤𝘰𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘦 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘱 𝘳𝘰𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯: try different iced coffee spots to keep your environment fresh and interesting
𝘴𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨: face away from windows showing beautiful weather when you need deep focus
⋆.ೃ࿔:・ motivation hacks that actually work ・:࿔ೃ.⋆
when your motivation is hiding under a beach umbrella:
𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘥𝘺 𝘥𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘴: everything's more fun with friends! find a study buddy and make it social
𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘥 𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘥𝘺 𝘥𝘢𝘺𝘴: "tropical tuesday" or "fruity friday" with matching snacks and music
𝘴𝘶𝘮𝘮𝘦𝘳 𝘳𝘦𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘴: ice cream after finishing a chapter, swimming after completing practice problems
𝘷𝘪𝘴𝘶𝘢𝘭 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴: create a summer-themed progress tracker (fill in a popsicle for each completed study session)
𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘥𝘺 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘮𝘦 𝘷𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘰𝘴: find summer study ambience videos that make you feel less alone
⋆.ೃ࿔:・ summer-specific study methods ・:࿔ೃ.⋆
adapt your approach to match the season:
𝘸𝘢𝘭𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘭𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦𝘴: listen to recorded lectures or educational podcasts while walking outside
𝘱𝘰𝘰𝘭𝘴𝘪𝘥𝘦 𝘱𝘰𝘮𝘰𝘥𝘰𝘳𝘰𝘴: 25 minutes of study, 5 minutes of dangling feet in water (or any summer treat)
𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘱𝘵 𝘴𝘶𝘯𝘴𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘯: apply a layer of understanding before exposing yourself to exam questions
𝘷𝘪𝘴𝘶𝘢𝘭 𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘥𝘺 𝘱𝘪𝘤𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘴: spread out colorful mind maps on a blanket instead of linear notes
⋆.ೃ࿔:・ be gentle with yourself ・:࿔ೃ.⋆
most importantly, release the guilt:
summer studying doesn't have to be all-or-nothing
progress > perfection (especially during summer)
your brain literally works differently in hot weather
memories matter too, make sure you're creating some
rest is productive, it's preparing you for future focus
remember that balance looks different in each season. summer might be when you study a little less but live a little more, and that's completely okay. your worth isn't tied to your productivity, especially when the sun is shining and calling your name.
xoxo, mindy 🤍

Hey, Dickhead!
*smashes your face in with a crowbar*
#if I had a nickle for everytime Ted spankoffski beat a character played by Jeff in the face with a metal object I’d have 2 nickels#my question is how did he obtain the crowbar? did he find it in an alleyway? did Teddy randomly have a crowbar in his studio apartment?#I like to think that Ted specifically went and bought the crowbar with the last 20 bucks in his wallet purely just to smack Kilgore with it#anyway big fan of how unhinged Ted is in this scene we need more of it#formal pertition to give Ted spankoffski a crowbar again and just set him loose into the wild. I just wanna see what he does with it.#(please ignore how I don’t know how to do side profiles I’m working on it okayyyyyyy)#ted spankoffski#theodore spankoffski#starkid#team starkid#starkid productions#starkid fanart#fanart starkid#time bastard#time bastard nightmare time#starkid time bastard#nightmare time#hatchetfield nightmare time#starkid nightmare time#nmt#hatchetfield#hatchetverse#hatchetfield universe#fanart#my art

So I’m watching another production of TGWDLM right now (go watch it please) and of course I’m going to yap about it as I watch so here
I love the opening choreo and the set is so epic!! I love the glow-in-the-dark green vibe with the painted handprints on the back wall
the way Ted rolls Paul out on a wheelie chair, then the whole cast conga lines a bit just to gather around and collectively call Paul a piece of shit I’m dying lmaoo
Melissa actually asked Charlotte about the softball league while Mr. Davidson and Paul were talking :)
Charlotte: But- we skipped last month… The audience: (gasp!)
Charlotte pulled out the biggest fucking flask ever help

while Melissa and Paul were talking Ted walked up to Bill, talked to him about some folder, then immediately got mad and walked away lmao
and then the way he ran up to ask Paul about beanies
Ted: Get me a chai iced tea okay?! Asshole.
Zoey (clearly not working): HiiWelcometobeanies.
Paul and the coffee shop jerk racing each other to the counter loll
“Yeeeah can I get a grandie caramel frappie in a venti cup 10 pumps of frappie roast, 3 shots of espresso no carmeldrizzl whip on top?”
Emma sounds so deadpan free my girl she just wants to go home
“I’m never coming back here again, that sign’s bullshit!!” (Proceeds to sit down and drink his drink anyways)
Pete is so aggressive I’m crying
I love this Harmony Jones please her running backwards to maintain a convo a few seconds longer
The Homeless Man digging through the trash while Paul and Harmony are talking I love that
HM waddles too what a guy
The audience lost it when Ted came out in a robe with Charlotte lol
“If you don’t like what we’re doing here-” (aggressive sexual dance) “there’s the door!” (angry strut off stage)
Sam (walking on stage past Emma): Mm… harghhh haharghh
Sam (now standing next to Zoey): SCUSEMEMAM!
SOUTHERNSAM SOUTHERN SAM SOUTHERNSAM
“That uniform is so fucking sexy on you” (Sam does sexy model poses at audience)
Bill rolling across stage on the chair and holding whatever the hell he’s using as a steering wheel

“Hey Siri, call Alice” (Siri proceeds to not do as asked and there is another several seconds of Bill struggling to call Alice as the audience laughs their asses off)
Deb: Well then I guess we’re out. Danny: WHFATWHAGTHEFYUCK??
The professor aggressively runs on stage, makes slutty poses while talking, and aggressively runs off stage. 10 out of 10 no notes.
Donna was voiced by one of the guys doing an aggressive high pitched voice while Dan had a pretty low voice. I’m using the word aggressive to describe a lot of this play and that’s a positive
The opening dancing to LDDDD was literally just two people running and jumping across a silent stage lmao yeah I’d be confused too
“I’m not a bad guy.” (Harmony Jones ominously steps closer) “I’ve donated to charities in the past” (she steps closer again) “Not yours…” (she does not break eye contact before bursting into song)
The Homeless Man began gyrating his hips at the start of his verse. Yeah I don’t doubt that that’s Ted at all
The world is my ✨house✨
“The dogs are my food RUFF!OH LOOK a new blouse!” HEY MELISSA REFERENCE?!
“🎶Dancing on the concrete🎶 It used. To hurt. A lot.”
They put Pete and HM Ted next to each other HAHAHHAHAHA IM FINE
During the chorus overlapping bit in LDDDD Harmony Jones was miming conducting that’s so cool I could easily see the 4/4 bar movement
Harmony Jones really pulled Paul to the front of the stage just to push him onto the floor and have everyone stand over him Inevitable style
Amazing ending pose

They said the lights down thing and the HM chucked his hat across the stage as he was running off amazing
(moving props after LDDDD) set change set change
Bill ranting about Alice to Ted buddy he doesn’t care :(
Bill: “-a god dang meteor! 🎶Mamma Mia🎶” (CLAP)
Char didn’t get the coffee in the sugar joke and Bill had to explain it to her lmao I love her
Okay these productions might unironically make me a BillTed shipper this shits getting crazy

“He didn’t get home at all” (everyone staring) “IwouldntknowiwasntthereatallFUCK”
Ted slaying those shoes

Paul: Oh, my reports! I’m gonna get it Ted: HA! Loser!
Mr. Davidson started up his song like a robot powering on I never knew I needed that
What Do You Want Paul? is beyond words PLEASE
Mr. Davidson never walking normally
He did the “too many curves” bit except every curve got shorter and wider as he went down
“Carol I want you to.. get a BBL” GAGGED IM CRYING
“If you leave you’re fired ☺️” (kiss on the head)
I need to stop WDYWP? deserves its own post this is madness
Pete and the guy with the hat were in LDDDD but also appeared in Beanies later so they got uninfected?? Or they were faking not being infected during cup of coffee?? Either way wow Pete apotheosis on stage real
on the topic of Pete and Guy With Hat, then sitting next to each other in Beanies was so awkward lol. GWH waves to Pete, Pete moves farther away. Pete keeps looking over at GWH as he’s on his phone. Beanies is a very awkward place from what I see
Pete was just dying to tip when Emma and Paul were talking lol. Then Nora and Zoey came out from behind doors the second the money went in the jar? I fully believe the people we see die in the coffee shop were already dead they were just pulling some scare factor or some shit lmao. Also Pete really enjoyed the tip song kicking his feet and stuff what a silly
Emma just chucking shit at the customers lmaoo
Nora and Zoeys dance moves I’m crying
LMAO during the “walking through the audience shrub alley way” bit Emma said “that shrub is talking??”
Ted was the only one actually in the trash can lol
“If you wanna stay in our hiding spot you’d better be FUCKING quiet, okay?” I’m starting to think this Ted doesn’t like Paul
Paul tried to whisper “the latte hatte, remember?” into Ted’s ear but Ted kept pretending he couldn’t hear him until Paul had to say it out loud lmao what an ass
Ted: Paul, Paul, Paul- Paul: You’re drunk?
Ted very much struggled to get out of the trashcan, he used Emma to hold onto
Charlotte: I called Sam, he should be able to help us! Paul: I love the cops! 😁 . Bill: Yeah, me too! ☺️
Show Me Your Hands is also wonderfully chaotic, aggressive dancing even more aggressive the guy who plays Jeff’s characters is such a treat
Sam: Put it in your mouth and SUCK IT! Charlotte: Sam, please don’t suck it
Oh yeah Ted is drunk that is not a sober man why is he trying to match the cops’ freak
Charlotte didn’t even have to grab Sam’s gun the cops just pointed at Sam on the ground, did a high pitched Wicked riff and ran lmao
she did still grab the gun and start pointing it at the others tho
they changed the alien insides from blue to green (to better fit the theme probably)
THAT’S NOT HIS BRAIN IT’S FUCKING GREEN!!
Ted is gold
“I vote we go to the panic room and we beg for the king’s help, who’s with me? I got whatever the fuck her name is, I got Bill. Paul?Charlotte?Paul?Charlotte?”
(Charlotte picks up Sam’s gun) “Oh yeah, that’s yours.” “Should she have that right now?”
Ted (after looting Sam’s hat, now refusing to help carry him): Oh no, fuck that man.
The long string of “gates opening” noises (like that one AVPS scene where Ron opens the train compartment door idk that’s the best I can explain it)
The professor pointing the gun at Sam byee
Professor Hidgens shoving the blue green shit in Charlotte face help
“Alexa, be a good girl and dim the lights” is wild
Angry Charlotte I love you
Ted: If I’m gonna die, I’m gonna go out doing the thing I love most. Screwing around with another man- (realizes he put his hand on Sam’s shoulder and jumps up) -‘S WIFE
THE SEX MUSIC STARTING UP AND THE LIGHTING CHANGE IM CRYING
no thoughts just this

Then she drops him and he lays in the fetal position on the floor for a bit
Ted and Charlotte the disaster couple of all time he’s arguing like a child I can’t do this
Ted repeatedly flipping her off as he walks away lmaoo
WHY AM I TIED TO A CHYYEAR??
More banger batshit choreo in You Tied Up My Heart, I can’t get enough of this guy
Swivel chairs are such an enhancement
WHAT THE FUCK NOT THE NIGHTMARE TIME MOTIF PLAYING AT THE SCENE CHANGE AFTER CHAR DIES WGHATT
Bill: I’m gonna kick your head! Audience: Ooooooohhh
Bill just flopping down hard on the floor after the kick-your-head argument lmao
Emma sounds so sad during her monologue to Paul my girl :(((
Paul: You’re the reason I don’t like musicals. :) Emma: Thanks Paul.
That long note Charlotte has at the start of Join Us (And Die). Her actress kept making the note higher!!
Sam immediately beelining for Ted
Ted is the one freaking out the most, this man is losing his shit (as it should be). Also he tried to shoot at Sam with a gun but it was out of bullets lmao
During the “sing Moana” bit Paul and Ted did the “HOUH HOUH” thing at each other
Someone needs to keep alcohol away from Ted all he’s been doing is drinking this whole apocalypse I swear
The professor saluted at Bill when he said “god speed”
Okay shit I’m cutting it off at act one since this is already so long, I’ll probably make a part two of this as I watch but it’s already taken me like three hours to get through act one since I keep pausing help.
anyways if you actually read this whole thing, props to you, reblog like a cat emoji or some shit idk I need to know if anyone actually read this
#Starkid#hatchetfield#tgwdlm#the guy who didn’t like musicals#lis needs to shut up#unfortunately I really like Ted in this production#All of this is very positive I swear this is making it into my top 3 guy productions#Maybe beating my prev fav??#Idk there isn’t anything I haven’t enjoyed yet#“Carol my love I want you to get a BBL 🎶”

✧・゜: how i organize my google drive for maximum efficiency :・゜✧:・゜✧





hey lovelies! ✨
i use google drive to organize mostly everything, and the truth is, my google drive used to be an absolute disaster zone, we're talking hundreds of "untitled document" files and random screenshots saved who knows when. but after one particularly stressful finals week where i lost a paper for three hours, i completely overhauled my system. here's exactly how i organize everything now!
⋆.ೃ࿔:・ the folder structure that changed everything ・:࿔ೃ.⋆
first things first, i use a simple top-level organization system:
📁 𝘢𝘤𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘮𝘪𝘤𝘴: all school-related files
📁 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭: journals, goal tracking, finances, etc.
📁 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦: blog drafts, design projects, photos
📁 𝘢𝘳𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘷𝘦: completed classes and old projects
📁 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘤𝘦𝘴: templates, reference materials, guides
the key is keeping your top level super simple, i used to have 20+ folders here and it was overwhelming! now i can find anything within seconds because i know exactly which category it falls under.
⋆.ೃ࿔:・ my academic folder system ・:࿔ೃ.⋆
this is the most detailed section of my drive! inside my academics folder:
📁 𝘤𝘶𝘳𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘴𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘳
📁 class 1
📁 class 2
📁 class 3
📁 class 4
📄 semester schedule
📄 assignment tracker
inside each class folder:
📁 notes
📁 assignments
📁 readings
📁 projects
📄 syllabus
i color-code each class folder to match my physical notebooks and planner tabs, this visual consistency helps my brain switch between subjects more easily!
⋆.ೃ࿔:・ file naming conventions that save me ・:࿔ೃ.⋆
the absolute game-changer was developing a consistent naming system:
for class notes: DATE_CLASS_TOPIC example: 06.10_psych101_memory_systems
for assignments: CLASS_ASSIGNMENT_STATUS example: econ202_midterm_essay_final
for group projects: CLASS_PROJECT_MYPART_VERSION example: marketing300_campaign_research_v2
this might seem excessive, but it means i never have to open files to figure out what they are! plus, sorting by name automatically puts everything in chronological order.
⋆.ೃ࿔:・ my favorite google drive hacks ・:࿔ೃ.⋆
these little tricks make everything run even smoother:
𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨: i star current project files so they always appear at the top of my drive
𝘤𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘳 𝘤𝘰𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨: right-click folders to give them colors that match your physical organization system
𝘵𝘦𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘨𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘳𝘺: i keep a "templates" folder with pre-formatted docs for essays, lab reports, notes, etc.
𝘰𝘧𝘧𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘢𝘤𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴: i set important folders to be available offline (has saved me during wifi emergencies!)
𝘴𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘤𝘩 𝘰𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘴: using "type:pdf" or "after:2023-09-01" in the search bar to filter results
⋆.ೃ࿔:・ maintenance routines ・:࿔ೃ.⋆
even the best system falls apart without regular maintenance! here's my schedule:
𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘬𝘭𝘺 𝘤𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘯𝘶𝘱 (15 min): every friday afternoon, i sort any stray files into their proper folders and rename anything with default names
𝘮𝘪𝘥-𝘴𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘢𝘶𝘥𝘪𝘵 (30 min): halfway through each semester, i check that everything is where it should be and create any new folders needed
𝘦𝘯𝘥-𝘰𝘧-𝘴𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘢𝘳𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 (1 hour): i move completed classes to my archive folder and set up the next semester's structure
⋆.ೃ࿔:・ sharing & collaboration settings ・:࿔ೃ.⋆
as someone who works on lots of group projects, getting these settings right is crucial:
𝘤𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘧𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴: i create specific shared folders for each group project rather than sharing individual files
𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘮𝘪𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘭𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘭𝘴: i'm careful about giving "edit" vs "comment" access depending on the project
𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘬 𝘴𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨: i always disable "anyone with the link can edit" to avoid accidental changes
⋆.ೃ࿔:・ my best google drive tips ・:࿔ೃ.⋆
create a "quick access" document with links to your most-used files
use google drive's "workspaces" feature to group project files temporarily
download the desktop app to easily drag and drop files
set up automatic google photos backup for screenshots and images
use keyboard shortcuts (shift + n for new folder is my favorite!)
⋆.ೃ࿔:・ final thoughts ・:࿔ೃ.⋆
remember that the perfect organization system is one that works for your brain! mine has evolved over years of trial and error, and i still tweak it each semester. the key is consistency, whatever system you choose, stick with it long enough to make it habit.
xoxo, mindy 🤍
