Pro: My school is hosting a marine biology trip in the mediterranean during late winter break!
Con: In the presentation, they made it seem really cool and now everyone wants to do it. there's a limited number of slots.
Pro: They're deciding who gets in based on interest in biology, and I have shown a lot of interest! I also have my parents to confirm that I am actually interested, since i've been thinking about interning at the aquarium, taking swim lessons, etc.
Con: Everyone is lying in the application about how interested they are in marine biology just cause they want to go on the trip. Plus i got variably good grades in biology last year.
Pro: The biology teacher is running it, and I'm besties with her
Con: I talked to two other people about the trip and they both claimed that they were friends with the biology teacher, so maybe I'm not special
Pro: I hang out with her during study hall, so I can mention my interest and hopefully get her to favor me in the applications more. Plus i gave her a cool rock once so now she owes me
Conclusion: i'm overthinking this
#idk it just feels like#i just found out last year that im actually smart enough to do biology#and i got really into marine biology over the spring#and now there's a trip where i can actually test if this is a field i would want to go into#that i could be good at#and actually like#but everyones trying to go#and most of them just want to see dolphins#and the mediterranean#idk should i start a rumor that the trips not going to be good to trick the freshmen into not applying?#no i don't have enough friends for that

anybody else feel that being human is like being a long-time syndicated cartoon character watching the world get more complex while your own design stays the same until youre incongruous with the reality around you??
#anyway. boomer ass comic#we're just pen and ink scribbles navigating an environment built for hdtv and gradients and vectors#i was not meant to be seen in such detail#actually if this was really a boomer comic the season 20 rabbit would be like vaping and using apple pay#and the cashier would be on their phone scrolling tinder#kiwi arts#comics

a feel like the new generation of fanfic readers NEED to understand that clicking on a fic (interaction) does nothing. ao3 has no algorithm. your private discord discussions of fic do not reach the authors. if you do not actively engage with writers they will stop posting. this isn’t social media this is community.
#i don’t care if you’re shy your usernames make you essentially anonymous#and also like you are going to have to interact with humans irl you can actually practice by doing it online#ao3#ao3 fanfic#fanfiction#fanfic

I know that realistically you can only fit so many movies into a list of approximately 100, but I cannot take that "How many of tumblr's favorite movies have you seen?" list that's been going around seriously because there are some truly egregious omissions.
Some of it is very clearly recency bias, which makes me wonder if the op truly wasn't on here in 2013 or so, but you're telling me you made a list of "tumblr's favorite movies" that doesn't include Pacific Rim or Mad Max: Fury Road? Because, like, I was there, Gandalf.
#this isn't even commentary on how much i like those particular films (i have only actually ever watched the former)#i just feel like perhaps we are forgetting the ancient texts#it's also a painfully live-action heavy list which. i am willing to admit i've spent time in more animation-heavy corners than some#but at the same time -- no disney's atlantis?#i saw a gifset on my dash about one ms. helga sinclair TODAY

writing advice for characters with a missing eye: dear God does losing an eyes function fuck up your neck. Ever since mine crapped out I've been slowly and unconsciously shifting towards holding my head at an angle to put the good eye closer to the center. and human necks. are not meant to accommodate that sorta thing.
#like it started with me just holding things more towards my right#but the things started shifting more towards center and my head turns instead#like. when im driving especially i have to keep my head turned so i can see on coming traffic#and when im around people ive noticed i position myself so my body is facing them and then turn my head to get them actually#centered in my now very right biased field of view#so anyways draw blorbo bleebus cheated to that 3/4s angle without guilt#at least one one eyed fucker actually does that

Why are you using chatgpt to get through college. Why are you spending so much time and money on something just to be functionally illiterate and have zero new skills at the end of it all. Literally shooting yourself in the foot. If you want to waste thirty grand you can always just buy a sportscar.
#you guys know that the purpose of college is to learn how to actually do something right#like to build a specific skill#what do you think will happen if you enter the workforce in a skilled job and dont have that skill

distant past
#pokemon#archen#fan art#id in alt text#the last of my trackpad poke series! we're still in 2023.#i would love to do more but i'm afraid drawing on the trackpad is probably at least slightly more intensive on the hand than not#this was a very fun photo study to do#actually if you go look at the fossil pokemon page on bulbapedia..it has official art of some fossil pokemon and their irl counterparts#its adorable 😭top 10 pkmn art for me#anyways archeopteryx has been a longtime favorite dino.. id like to draw it again

How it feels getting obsessed with something new and then realizing you're going to spend anywhere from a week to the rest of your life thinking about it
#sp-rambles#Edit: I'm happy a bunch of you are overjoyed when you get an interest but like#I can't Function when I get obsessed with something#When the hyperfixation is an actual hyperfixation and takes control of your whole life

tragic! trans person no longer merely tolerating the act of existing just now realising their entire wardrobe is ass
#''yeah haha i just never really cared about clothes growing up'' free roaming eggs are on sale this weekend#can you believe that having a body you actually like to look at in the mirror makes you want to put good clothes on it too?#surely this is uncharted territory in the mapping of human experiences
