rewatching dead poets society before making a really bad decision so you can get into the "carpe diem" mood is academia culture

i don't fucking want someone who i can be' nasty with i want someone who i can recreate the scene of Wuthering Heights when Heatcliff hugs Catherine's dead body and begs her to haunt him because he can't live without her.

"this must hit so hard if youre stupid" is such a simple yet incredible rinse i think it might change the hating game forever

[escapadeist]

In my opinion it's a lot more healthy to be able to own that you dislike someone for petty reasons than to do all kinds of mental gymnastics to make everyone you don't really vibe with out to be a bad person actually

"what did students do before chatgpt?" well one time i forgot i had a history essay due at my 10am class the morning of so over the course of my 30 minute bus ride to school i awkwardly used by backpack as a desk, sped wrote the essay, and got an A on it.

six months later i re-read the essay prior to the final exam, went 'ohhhh yeah i remember this', got a question on that topic, and aced it.

point being that actually doing the work is how you learn the material and internalize it. ChatGPT can give you a short cut but it won't build you the the muscles.
