wow I wonder what could have happened around 2013 to cause this
#which the article doesn't mention at all of course#look. i can only speak to 1) math instruction 2) on the elementary school level#and middle school level#and only in the districts ive worked with#but ive said this before and I'll say it again. the current way math is taught has the same problems that balanced literacy did#kids who are naturally good at math will figure it out no matter how its taught#in fact they probably ARE benefiting a lot from being exposed a variety of strategies and conceptual thinking#the sort of stuff that would typically be reserved for a pull-out gifted/discovery/links class#but the kids who struggle with math? this does NOT help them#they dont just 'pick up' addition and multiplication facts#the ~more conceptual~ strategies dont actually lead to more conceptual understanding for them. its just a different (more complicated!)#algorithm for them to memorize#and because it doesn't come easily to them#they aren't given the necessary practice (which yes. involves repetition!!) to master any strategy#kids who can't struggle to make big conceptual leaps shouldn't be denied access to basic math skills#and i will die on the hill of 'its easier to think about complex probel#*problems and think conceptually if you aren't devoting mental resources to trying to figure out 8*7 by repeated addition

Me standing here watching Americans praising China like it’s heaven on earth like you do realize the system is beyond fucked there right it’s important to me that you know that 🧍♂️
#sorry I don’t like to talk about politics on here#but I’m just a little#mad#y’all know that red note is still social media right#and that app is infamous for how fake things are right#yk we don’t get to vote in that country right#and the censorship is insane right#and the xenophobic is on another level right#I was enrolled in a Japanese language class in middle school#kids will literally beat us with a stick and call us treason and slurs#and adult allowed it#bearz rambling tag#i’m gonna delete this later

Transdimentional portal in the basement
Mysterious/fucked up books
Complicated timeline
Start off with episodic stories, the plot sneaks up on you
The writers voice some of the main characters in the series
Badass old people
Someone documents the supernatural
Homeless man fakes his own death
Villain with the ability to take over people's bodies, but it shows in their eyes
Toxic old man yaoi + divorce
Old book guy gets pipe from eye villain
Protagonist gets manipulated into helping start the apocalypse
One of the protagonists gets sacrificed by a loved one to stop said apocalypse
A guy stole the identity of someone he looks alike
The multiverse is canon
Guys with the same name
Special pig <3
There's someone in the computer
That weird bit with teeth in one episode
Boat guy commercialized the horrors
Most people in universe are unaware of the existence of supernatural stuff
Pit people throw stuff into
An official ARG

@nekosammsi he chose the wrong place to get stage dressings
#discworld#moist von lipwig#going postal#terry pratchett#i don't know why but i particularly enjoy the ''pieces of eight'' gag#it's very stupid#i think it's the same part of me that loves ace attorney#we love a parrot providing vital clues to murder investigations#put him on the stand!!!#my art#the moist books were my first foray into the discworld series and i think in my heart they will always be the pinnacle#of the discworld series for me#(not counting raising steam which was. a book.)#my middle school library had making money#it was very random#they had no other terry pratchett books not even his middle grade level books#but they had making money and my friend's father had mentioned liking terry pratchett so i picked it up#and it was love at first sight#so i read making money first and then went to the public library to read going postal and there was no hope of salvation after that

#frogadier#face is sortof like a discus#but anyway i guess there's exceptions to every rule. for example i could say kalos starters generally have good middle evos#because two out of three is still a passing grade#just. the one it got wrong happens to be#incredibly wrong!#but we don't count wrongness levels when we're grading. because the school system is dogwater#ugh now i'm thinking about how bad school traumatized me (and all of us) and i'm gonna get pissed off if i keep thinking about it#look at frogadier

One thing I've noticed about Makoto is that like, he never really mentions having any other friends. For instance, in the killing game in the first trial, his motive video has his family which makes sense. However, this would also imply that he never really had a bigger connection with anyone else or as much as his family. Hence, did he have any friends before Hopes Peak or were they just not close enough to even remotely mention? Also, doesn't this, in a way, contradict his "average" status and how he sees himself? Not saying that it's wrong for him to not have any friends, just that it's one of those things that's a typical thing to occur. Plus, the fact that he claims how "average" he is only to have several traits that don't fit into that makes him more interesting such as his boundless hope or the fact that he was wetting the bed until 5th grade. (will never get over that cus like, was he okay?? hope he was okay u_u) Back to the friend thing though, literally the only person he mentions knowing in school is Sayaka. It's the fact that he has no other connections with others kids his age in the past aside from her and it's not like they were very close besties then, anyway just that he knew her then. It kinda gives him a level of connection with some of the more loner characters in the first game honestly. Cus he's got no close friends that are close enough to be abducted! Reminds me of how Byakuya had his butler, Celeste had her cat, Toko had her little stink bug, and how honestly none of the class (or hell, any danganronpa character tbh) have both family AND friends held captive. It's just one or the other or someone/something miscellaneous like a pet or butler or just one parent being in their motive like Yasuhiro and his mom, Chihiro and his dad, or Taka with his dad. I also feel this adds a bit more to the tragedy of the first game with Hopes Peak, the more that I think about it. Like, some of them had their very first friends they ever got, probably the first ever real connection with someone their age who also wasn't connected with their talent specifically. Think Mondo and his gang or Sayaka and her girl group. Not saying those don't mean anything but still. So, it's interesting to think that they all have that level of connection with them, even "average Makoto". Just a thought though! Edit: Is Sakura the only one btw? Cus she has a boyfriend I think and it also mentioned that like, her whole dojo was being threatened by the mastermind? Which like, includes her family in there. So is Sakura the only one who doesn't have some trauma or baggage with a parent? Though crap. Nevermind. She got called ogre a lot so yeah. These bastards are fucked hahaha!!
#danganronpa#danganronpa trigger happy havoc#trigger happy havoc#danganronpa thh#dr thh#thh#danganronpa makoto#makoto naegi#hopes peak academy#just a ramble post#text sector#i personally think this is interesting though and am happy to read other thoughts about this! hope this isn't too surface level btw#am still working on getting the games which i hope will occur before the end of 2024 and all. i yearn to analyze these losers so bad#also it's funny imagining makoto as a little loner as a kid ngl. just him and komaru against the world with their parents cheering behind#or gosh. makoto with an edgy phase in middle school cus he's still got no friends by then. not that it'd be that extreme. he's still makoto

One of Jinwoo’s punishments I believe would be to stick a vibrating egg inside his S/O and force her to keep it there at all times while he’s gone and that he’ll allow her to remove it when he comes back. The twist? He purposely takes on high S-Rank Dungeons appearing all over that’ll take days, weeks, maybe even a few months, and by the time he returns, his S/O will be a huge begging mess and she can’t even remove it bc he orders his Shadows to make sure she’s obedient.
AYO?????? DAMN THAT'S CRAZYYYYYYY
(he'd do it though totally 😏 NOT FOR DAYS THO LMFAOOO CAUSE SHE'D BE DIVORCING HIM FR 😭)
#imagine him telling her to wear it when she has to attend parents day at her baby's school 😌#him in the middle of a raid#standing on the sidelines while beru and the rest of the gang takes care of the dungeon for him#smirking with his hands shoved inside his coat's pocket 😏#his eyes turning purple as he spies on her#and he sees her sitting on her seat in front of their daughter's teacher#and he increases the intensity justttt a little bit#and she chokes on her words and the teacher is like “are you all right?”#and she's squirming like “uh yes i'm fine”#and jinwoo just chuckles under his breath “oh sweetheart you're adorable”#and igris is standing on his side staring at him like: 🧍♂️#sometimes he worries about his liege#headcanons.jinwoo#solo leveling#sung jinwoo#sung jin woo

idk why but in my mind your an Outsiders character that came to life
lol thanks
In case your gen wonderin why, it’s cos I’m a teen boy with a (formerly) greaser-ish haircut who wears leather jackets and talks a lot about the Outsiders lol- you see me and the Outsiders characters drawn in the same artstyle and I give them my own life experiences when I write. Causes an association of ideas, that kinda thing, I reckon
#n I grew up w/o the internet so my childhood has more in common w/ my folks’ childhoods than w/ my peers’#which makes a lotta my media references n pop culture knowledge pretty damn dated#not unlike how the greasers would be today#but look all that’s pretty surface level. rest assured i’m no greaser.#I’m middle class nowadays. haven’t lived paycheck to paycheck for a few years now.#n while prone to delinquency i’ve never come close to /real/ trouble#sure I’ll skip school and speed and smoke but I ain’t been in a real fight since I was 11#only time the cops have been called on me was for a curfew violation#so definitely don’t think of me like that- it ain’t a life experience I can claim. especially not nowadays.#I can relate to the greasers in a lotta ways other folks can’t in this fandom by merit of being a teen guy w/ a formerly rocky home life#but I think it’s important for me to clarify that that doesn’t make me an authority on their struggles.#like i can’t speak to class issues.#not that /you/ were saying that or anything anon! I just mean this as a psa I guess lol#personal stuff#rambling#ask

Y'know the longer I think about it, the more I think "To me, Mizuki is just Mizuki" or whatever it is that Ena said was Also a thinly veiled way of her saying "Ok well you're still a girl". Like I think the most glaringly obvious, not-behind-a-curtain-in-the-slightest line was when she pointed directly at "So are you like a guy too?" and correctly described that statement as an insult, but surprisingly, that line that pissed me off so bad, that line that really annoying people with limited ability to read have been parroting since the game dropped, might... actually be goated? A little?
Like. I don't know. Ena spent her whole friendship with Mizuki up to this point correctly assuming she was a girl, all she had wrong was the "cis" modifier. (And Cis Modifier isn't necessarily something she consciously thought of, because of the whole cis privilege makes you assume cis as the default and thus that modifier fades into the background thing.) Additionally, a hot fucking minute passed between Mizu5 and Ena5, long enough for Ena to ruin her skin with tears for her dead wife... And during that hot fuckin minute, the Ena5 4koma took place, where she straight up drew a lost girl while stressing about Mizuki. That whole gap between the events and what took place in the gap is very special to me... because the Girl Drawing combined with the Accurately Recognizing The Transmisogynistic Bullying As Exactly That really helps to make clear that Ena was confronting her "cis as default" way of thinking, and not anything else. I don't think she questioned Mizuki's girlhood even once, aside from maybe thinking "what the fuck are they on about" during her run-in with the bullies in Mizu5
#at this point I'm really really leaning on assumptions over given information but I Think Ena Researched. And I think that's cute...#Like did she know about trans people before The Outing? Beyond that That's A Kind Of Person That Exists?#I know that one poll shows that Japan is one of the lowest ranking countries in terms of 'amount of people that know a trans person'#at a meager like 9% of individuals polled. i say 'like' as if I didn't go check the actual poll#in any case really low number. much lower than the 38% where I live. so I assume general awareness over there must be lower?#everyone here in the US knows about transgender because Everyone Makes It Their Fucking Business. I hate politicians#is Japan like that ? I don't know. Probably not. Right? So good chance Ena had baby level awareness before Mizu5#Never considering that she would ever meet a trans person irl#SO I think she must have gotten to project-sekai-googling-equivalent.#Her stubborn ass came in handy and she firmly stuck to What She Knew About Mizuki#and she looked up 'my friend (girl) got called a guy as an insult why'#THIS led her to a rabbit hole in which she learned of the plight of the transgender people#and she was like hold tf up is Mizuki trans? is that it?#and she learned about voice training and remembered how Mizuki did use kind of a different accent + part of her throat in middle school#and from there she was like oh fucking shit I witnessed a hate crime against my bestie who faces extreme structural discrimination.#that's what I think happened. let me know your thoughts. it's 5 AM. sorry if this is unreadable I'm yapping#I should make a yap tag for when I get Like This#forgive me for my frequent sekai yaps it's just weirdly dissectable to me.

About the last reblog I'm always like kind of baffled by what I seem to pick up about what others learned in grammar or literature class in school like. Why do all Americans on this site not know rhetorical devices but they know the hero's journey? Like what kind of shit ass lesson plans are these
#bell.txt#like everybody talks about the heros journey with a level of obsession and confidence that you know they learned that in school#but like. its a very specific construction and frankly doesnt mean much by itself if you struggle with the concept of tropes to begin with#which a lot of people do? so im like#why teach how the structure works and not how to recognize the building blocks#like thats the impression i get at least. everybody is really bad at rhetorical devices like guys didnt we learn those in middle school#and then i think huh maybe not
