LQG knows how to run on all fours and it's fucking terrifying. He learnt it from a Shixiong, who was just messing with him, however it was incredibly useful in Sloping and Rocky terrains.

Sometimes he Chases his disciples like that so they know the thrill of getting chased by a beast/hj

the first time I saw this pop up in my inbox snorted so loud in public

OK, so I was inspired and now I wanna start a bigger conversation and I wanna know: fic writers, comic makers, au creators, etc. how do you do it? How do you go from plot bunny or story idea to completed chapters/story/comic update? What's your process? What programs do you use? Do you draft stuff? Outline? Storyboard? Do you chart or sketch? How do you settle on characters and characterizations? How do you plot (or do you)? I wanna know all the nitty gritty details. It's just so interesting because everyone does it so differently.

Saw @kettleninth's tags on this post about how Jayce's sincere desire to validate other people's interests would make him good with kids and yeah, I heartily agree. And I can see Viktor being good with kids too in a slightly different way, like he's one of those people who just talks to kids like they're adults because he doesn't know any other way to relate to them. And especially if you're a precocious kid, like Viktor himself probably was, you just eat that shit up.

Personally I really can't see either Jayce or Viktor wanting to become parents. But you know what they do have? Cool Teacher who lets all the weird kids hang out in their classroom at lunch energy.

They were both weird lonely kids and in, say, a modern AU where they're both high school teachers instead of college professors, you better believe they would attract weird lonely kids like magnets. Jayce is the cool science teacher who will let you infodump about your current hyperfixation and won't just pretend to be listening but will ask questions and produce a library book about it for you next week. And Viktor is the other cool science teacher who will show you how to pour liquid nitrogen over your hand as long as you don't tell the principal. ;-) And they're secretly dating.

New teaching methods

The reckless, insubordinate behaviour of the students got so out of hand, that the school decided to introduce new teaching methods.

First, one student of every class gets selected for pre-programming.

With their behaviour so successfully modified, the new method is being rolled out across the school. The pre-programmed students encourage their classmates to join, to participate in this brand new breakthrough in teaching. The newly hired, well trained staff makes sure that no ... resistant students disturb the peace and quiet.

Something that always annoys me is the idea only 1 language learning method works. Which is not true. While it may be possible that, for a particular individual, only a few out of many study methods may work well enough for That Individual to make progress and stay motivated... that doesn't mean all the other study methods won't work for anyone else out there, or that those few methods will work for every other given person.

Obviously if you've been studying a while, then you already figured out what kinds of things work for you and don't. If you're a beginner, just wading into studying?

I would suggest you simply look for study methods that: 1. Teach you new things regularly, 2. Review and practice things you've learned, 3. Include studying things you need for your particular goals (for example if your goal is to read X book then the study materials at some point should involve reading practice and some words the book contains, if your goal is to talk about Y then the study materials should include some information about pronunciation and words you'll need to be able to say).

As you can imagine, a TON of study materials will meet these requirements. And you can study a given skill in a LOT of ways.

(Reading is my focus lol so just for reading, a beginner might: do vocabulary study with lists or conversations with native speakers or watching shows and looking words up or listening to dialogues with a transcript like in a textbook or graded readers or a picture book with word labels in the target language or a video game with labelled objects in target language, all of those things as long as your vocabulary is improving or reading practice is happening would help you make progress). So to improve reading skill as a beginner: you could study with a textbook, a podcast with transcript, a classroom or tutor with words written down in target language (like TPRS), a video game, a TV show and a translate app on your phone, a friend you talk with (who either writes words down or you look up words you hear with a translate app), a friend you text with, srs flashcards like anki (provided there's text) etc. As long as there's new words, and/or you're practicing reading, the study method may work. If it works will come down to if you can stay motivated doing it regularly, and make sure you regularly learn some new things and review/practice things you've already studied.

So consider those things when you see people selling a study method as a product (especially when it's costing you money). Consider if it teaches you NEW things, and are those new things related to your goals, and how MUCH new stuff will it teach you before you finish it? Consider if it provides review or practice, or if you can use it's materials to review on your own making up your own method, or if you'll need to do separate review/practice.

So examples:

LingQ. Can it teach you many new words? Yes, thousands, since you can import any texts you want when you get done with their provided material (I have no idea how much their beginner material covers though in terms of words... I would hope 1000-3000 words but that can be researched). Is your goal reading? It's suited to reading, so you will practice and review often with it. Cost? I think it was $12 a month when I last had it, and the price may have increased. Is it worth it? Depends on a learner's needs. I found it was wasting my money, so I chose to use free tools like Pleco and Readibu apps - since those apps are suited for Chinese learners and have better translations, Pleco has better paid graded reader material if I was going to spend money, and both Pleco and Readibu let me import texts so I can learn thousands of new words just like LingQ but free. Now that I'm not a beginner, I often use Microsoft Edge to read chinese... since I can still click-translate words easily (all my web browsers have that tool free), and Edge's TTS voice is helpful for pronunciation and sounds quite good. I read webnovels online so Edge works well. But it's translations aren't as good as Pleco or Readibu, so if I still needed translations more I would use them. So... is LingQ a good study method? Its certainly a study method marketed to buy. Well... the method is suited to improving reading skill, at least. It costs money, which is a negative, but it does offer a lot. However: everything it does regarding reading can be done free with other apps or sites or web browsers on their own. So if paying money motivates you to read... sure. LingQ does have a few word tracking features a learner may find worth the money, keeping in mind the actual read-to-learn method can be done free without lingq. (Also... while LingQ is a valid option for improving reading, if the learners goal is speaking then it would be important to think of what study activities the learner will do OUTSIDE of LingQ to improve speaking... because I've seen how LingQ is marketed as "how to learn a language" but it's only focused on some skills. It has vocabulary and grammar in some sense, since you'll read a lot and encounter new words and structures. But it doesnt have speaking or writing practice at least last time I was on it. Those activities would need to be worked on, on your own).

You can do that kind of cost/benefit contemplating with any study method material you see being sold. Amother example: there's a beginner Mandarin course called Mandarin Blueprint. It teaches like 800 words. Thats all. It may be worthwhile for a beginner... who still needs to learn 800 common words. But if you already know a few hundred words, the benefit of the course is less, you'll need to find a new material to teach you more new stuff soon. And the price was like a few hundred for the course... which for me personally was too much to spend, when I had already learned 800 hanzi from a book that cost me 12 dollars and 2000 words from a free user made memrise deck. The course claimed to get a person speaking, competent, but anyone not a beginner would say speaking basically with 800 words is nowhere near the level of working in Chinese or just doing a lot of daily life stuff, or reading/listening to media. (Although for the motivated beginner if you're learning 800 words on your own like I was, its definitely close to the point of jumping to learn more words and start reading kids and teenager books, and watching easier shows if you're willing to look new words up). So to me... Mandarin Blueprint felt like overselling some basic beginner materials. (Again when I know several other things that teach beginner stuff either more in depth so HSK test prep classes, and college courses, or that teach beginner stuff to the same depth as Mandarin Blueprint but free).

Some study materials aren't going to act like they teach everything. I've seen chinese courses just for learning to speak tones better and general pronunciation - probably worthwhile if your goal is to improve speaking and a teacher could help improve the issues your having. But a learner needs to be aware for that course that they'll need to study vocabulary on their own, its JUST a pronunciation improvement course.

Going to use some holiday money to get Affinity and teach myself some graphic design! Creeping ever closer towards making an alien/spacekind zine a real thing!

I cried over my maths teacher today </3

I rest my case.

Fuckin BULLSHIT the one on the right is way better you only need 1 stroke to draw it!

Speaking of some things being objectively better than others for very important reasons, I booted up my brother’s old copy of Hyrule Warriors yesterday and tried to get A-ranks in the adventure mode, only to gradually realize just how important the level-up system is, meaning that no matter how good you are, the only way to have a chance of getting A-ranks on the later stages is to grind until the enemies don’t take 5 whole minutes each to kill.

Then I ranted to myself in my room about how Ultrakill’s P-ranks are way better

Dont you just love the feeling of finding out that something you have believed to be true (and based actual real world decisions on) may be completely the opposite of what 6ou thought it was

[light-wrath-paradise]

Okay I think one of us may have lost the plot because I quite literally have no idea what you're talking about at this point.

i wish there was an easier way to tell the difference between an "if it sucks hit da bricks" situation and a "sometimes being an adult means doing things that you dont wanna" situation

Meet Zachary.

He was one of the worst. A menace to his teachers, a terror to his fellow students, and a danger to himself and his parents.

Now he is one of Thurnhall's best embassadors. After some initial reluctance, he has embraced his programming fully. He is now absorbing his programming obediently. His loyalty to his school knows no limitations anymore. And his natural good looks and charme are the perfect vehicle to infect more parents. They see a well adjusted young man, eager to promote his excellent school, talking with pride and an arresting demeanor. They are easily swayed.

Here is Billy. Now he cringes at his old nickname "B", and prefers to be called William.

As he talks to parents and prospective students, his eyes glow with pride and joy. His natural and relaxed presence entices the high schoolers, while his respectful behaviour puts the parents at ease. Surely a school with such excellent students is the right one for their children.

why would math professors rather kill themselves then give you a homework problem that you've done in class before. my brother in Christ you're asking me to do new kinds of math ive never in my life seen or heard about before.
