THE IMPORTANCE OF COMPREHENSION

Comprehension is a fundamental cognitive skill that plays a pivotal role in human communication, learning, and problem-solving. Its importance cannot be overstated, as it forms the bedrock of our ability to make sense of the world around us. In the realm of language, comprehension enables us to understand spoken and written words, allowing us to engage in meaningful conversations, read and interpret literature, and follow instructions. Beyond language, comprehension extends to various aspects of life, such as comprehending complex mathematical concepts, scientific principles, and the nuances of social interactions.

In education, comprehension is the cornerstone of effective learning. It is not enough for students to merely memorize facts and figures; they must grasp the underlying concepts and ideas to apply knowledge creatively and critically. Comprehension enables students to connect new information with existing knowledge, fostering deeper understanding and long-term retention. Moreover, it empowers individuals to analyze, evaluate, and synthesize information, promoting higher-order thinking skills that are essential in the modern world.

Comprehension also plays a crucial role in problem-solving and decision-making. Whether it’s deciphering a complex issue at work, navigating personal relationships, or making informed choices as citizens in a democratic society, the ability to comprehend diverse perspectives, data, and consequences is indispensable. Without comprehension, individuals are prone to misinterpretation, miscommunication, and making hasty or ill-informed decisions.

Furthermore, comprehension is intrinsically linked to empathy and cultural awareness. When we comprehend the experiences, beliefs, and perspectives of others, we can foster empathy and build bridges of understanding in an increasingly interconnected world. This skill is vital for promoting inclusivity, tolerance, and cooperation across diverse communities and global contexts.

In summary, comprehension is a multifaceted skill that underpins our capacity to learn, communicate, solve problems, and engage with the complexities of life. It is an essential tool for personal growth, education, and societal progress, contributing to more informed and empathetic individuals and a more harmonious and prosperous world.

Certainly, let’s delve deeper into the significance of comprehension.

Comprehension is not just a cognitive skill; it’s a lens through which we perceive and interact with the world. It enables us to extract meaning from the barrage of information we encounter daily, whether through text, images, or conversations. In an era defined by an overwhelming abundance of information, the ability to discern what is relevant, accurate, and valuable is paramount. Comprehension empowers us to sift through this data deluge, distinguishing between fact and fiction, making informed choices, and participating in meaningful discourse.

Moreover, comprehension fuels innovation and progress. It allows us to grasp the discoveries and inventions of those who came before us, building upon their knowledge to push the boundaries of human achievement. Scientific breakthroughs, technological advancements, and artistic creations all rely on the capacity to understand, synthesize, and innovate based on existing knowledge.

In the workplace, comprehension is an essential skill that can lead to professional success. It facilitates effective communication, ensuring that ideas are conveyed accurately and that tasks are executed with precision. Furthermore, it supports critical thinking and problem-solving, enabling employees to tackle complex challenges, adapt to changing circumstances, and contribute meaningfully to their organizations.

On a personal level, comprehension enriches our lives by fostering a deeper connection with the world and with others. It allows us to appreciate the beauty of literature, art, and culture, transcending surface-level experiences to engage with profound ideas and emotions. It also enhances our relationships, as it enables us to truly listen, understand, and empathize with others, strengthening bonds and resolving conflicts more effectively.

In the context of lifelong learning, comprehension remains a lifelong companion. It is the key to continued personal growth, adaptability, and resilience in a rapidly evolving world. In essence, comprehension is the bridge that connects us to knowledge, to each other, and to the possibilities of a brighter future. Its significance extends far beyond the boundaries of academia; it is a fundamental skill that shapes our identities and our collective destiny.

“I used to think that communication was the key until I realized comprehension is. You can communicate all you want to someone, but if they don’t understand you, it won’t reach them they way you need it to.”

do you think, before ahsoka knew that anakin was vader, that she had nightmares of vader killing anakin? she followed what the naboo thought happened, that anakin died protecting his wife and unborn child(ren) from this menace that massacred the entire jedi temple? do you think she wondered how he'd rush into battle to fight vader only to be outmatched? do you think she thought of his lightsaber reflecting off vader's helmet? what about the look in his eyes? padmé was buried, do you think she wondered about what happened to anakin's body? do you think she looked for him?

I cannot wait for this Stan to reconnect with his Ford.

I still haven't figured out HOW exactly they'll meet yet, but I do think that Ford would ATTACH himself to Stanley and talk his ears off forever when they eventually get comfortable :] and Stanley would listen because HOLY SHIT, THAT'S HIS BRO HE HASN'T SEEN FOR 40-ISH YEARS, HE MISSED HIS VOICE. Nonstop certified Yapper & Listener relationship <3

Stanley looks dead faced because of his ingrained poker face, but he's thouroughly enjoying it, even if sometimes he has no idea what the fuck Ford is saying. He never interrupts him though, since he knows people usually ignore or interrupt him mid-talk already. So sometimes Stan gets stuck in awkward situations where he has to leave or do stuff, but also doesn't have it in his heart to stop Ford and extract himself out of a (one-sided) conversation.

Thinking about the fact that Mabel and Dipper didn't know they had two great uncles.

Yeah they are 12 and at 12 I had a shotty understanding of my family tree- But really? Nobody brought up their great uncle? Stanley? Especially since they'll be staying with his twin brother, Stanford?

Shermie never went to Stan's fake funeral, which to me means the twos relationship was strained on some level. If Shermie is older that means his view of Stan was poisoned in some way, that even as kids they weren't close. If the Shermie is younger then he never even got to meet Stan and all he knew about him was how he failed his family. Hell, people probably barely mentioned Stanley TO Shermie.

The fact that Stan had become a black stain upon the Pines family name makes me so vividly upset. Stanley faked his death and the family just- seemingly decided to strike him from the record. To pretend he didn't existed to spare themselves the sadness and shame.

Stanford and Shermie Pines. The only children worth mentioning of Filbrick and Caryn Pines.

It was never Stanford that was lost to the world. It was Stanley, ever since he had to leave New Jersy- it was always him that had to be struck from the record. Change his name, change his state, change his affiliations, destroy the remains of ghost that was Stanley Pines. Kill him so the family doesn't bring him up, doesn't ask questions, stops asking "Stanford" about his twin.

I just keep thinking about the fact that since the day he made one single mistake all the way up until Ford walks out of that machine- Stanley Pines was killed and did not exist. And Stan himself had no one to blame, he had to play the part in his own demise- He is the only one who ever knew Stanley was alive and has been for decades.

He lives in the multitudes of every personality he's ever taken, all in the hope that he himself can stop being Stanley Pines.

Ooh, now that we’ve seen N!Edwin and DP!Edwin talk about Feelings could we see the same with N!Charles and DP!Charles?

As simple as that.

you know what. i actually love that trying to talk to solas was the last thing varric did and it ended in complete failure. especially if you put it in the context of his feelings about anders. varric was so bitter every time he mentioned him because he could not stop him. he didn't even realize that anders was up to something and when it was too late he started to think of him as of someone who destroyed that fragile peace in kirkwall that actually never existed.

it adds layers to the way he felt about solas. he believed that time he could stop a friend who simply lost his way. because varric tethras can talk anyone out of anything, can't he? anders was just too dodgy and self-centred and cut everyone off just like solas did but this time varric is completely prepared. surely. absolutely.

he could have never talked anders out of it even if he had known what was coming. he could have never talked solas out of it either. anders was a desperate person standing against (as varric himself put it) forces he couldn't possibly defeat. solas was a god standing against a couple of mortals and his own conscience buried under his guilt and regrets. being a good friend would not stop meredith's oppression. being a good friend would not stop someone who fears so much that all of the atrocities he committed were for nothing and would mean nothing at the end. varric died because he didn't realize it. he died and left his second in command with an immense guilt because they believed he knew solas enough to pull that off and there's something tragic about it

i know Edwin is proper Old, but like. Charles has been on earth for well over 40 years now. and he's probably done a better job than Edwin of keeping up with the times (since he didn't have an extended absence in hell) but at some point, being ghosts and not interacting with the living very often must mean he's also not great at technology, or modern slang, or the evolving definitions of existing words. he seems to at least have some concept of what the internet is, but Crystal and Niko are the only ones shown actually using computers or phones.

what i'm saying is, i need more of Charles being a middle-aged man please

really unpopular opinion but if ur trans u should probably lie to ur doctors. not all of them necessarily, but like you could and should especially in the er/urgent care, specifically if what youre having treated/checkups for has nothing to do with your transition. i had chest pain from binding for years that wasnt addressed because i was told it was just anxiety, until the first time i stealthed at the er. suddenly they wanted to run tests on me and said that my ribs were fucked up but they didnt know from what. ive had chest pain for years and i thought i was binding safely but i was also binding for 6 1/2 years before my operation and youre not really supposed to do that

also, even if youre getting gender affirming care, they do not need to know all the details. gay/lesbian/st4t? they dont need to know. transfem top/transmasc bottom looking for srs? dont tell them that. nonbinary/nondysphoric /otherwise gender nonconforming? dont fucking tell them that. a lot of trans people that arent t4c heterosexual and binary trans people, or just trans people who dont follow traditional gender norms during sex/in general are discriminated against all the time. you cannot lie to your doctors about everything, but theres a lot of things that you honestly should just keep to yourself when seeking care as a trans person. as far as your doctor is concerned, youre a binary trans person who isnt comfortable disclosing their personal sex life and its none of their business. letting them think ur a binary trans t4c heterosexual is the smart thing to do

*hits blunt* Joker has a long-standing one-sided beef with Nightingale in the Blood Blossom au because Nightingale clocked his shit almost immediately and began "sharks are smooth"ing at him. But because Nightingale only comes out in case of emergencies, Joker has to come up with increasingly convoluted schemes to trap the Batman in order to lure him out.

This has the opposite desired effect because this is the equivalent of using increasingly difficult locks to keep the raccoons out of your trash. All you're doing is teaching the raccoons how to pick locks. This also pisses off the other Rogues because Joker keeps making trapping the Batman exponentially harder all because he's beefing with his teenage son.

This chapter....THIS chapter has me sobbing a bucket like Yuji, he is so precious. His growth has astonished me so much. His introspection and the ability to step in other's shoes and sympathise with them (even Sukuna) is his greatest strength. His whole fight was to bring Megumi back, to save one person atleast and now not only he grew out of his cog mentality but is leaving the choice in Megumi's hands that it's fine if he wants to give up. For the first time someone tells Megumi it's fine to give up and not wanting to fight anymore or get stronger or fulfill any space or role. Yuji giving Megumi the agency to deal with his loss and trauma, to choose for himself...grieve and just end it all. It's so tragic yet beautiful with how Yuji is always there for Megumi and vice versa. And Megumi's monologue about wanting to enjoy the domesticity of life..God it's heartbreaking how he just wanted to...exist, to live like a 16 year old, safe and surrounded by his loved ones without the burden of being strongest in future on his shoulder.

This panel is so bittersweet...with it being directly parallel to Gojo one but with such stark contrast..Yuji is there for Megumi only..not an ally, not the strongest sorcerer of future but his friend.

To those celebrating this catastrophe, remember one thing: no politician, celebrity, or icon will come to protect you when the enemy bombs your city. No one will help you when your loved ones will die, no one. So use the brain God gave you and think before you speak. Make wise decisions

One of my favourite things about the way Fadel's plan (to "make them [Style] fall in love with us [me]") plays out is that when he dials up his affection and goes all out on the sweet flirtation and tenderness, Style immediately finds it weird and strange and suspicious and off-putting. Fadel pretending to be #whipped actually makes Style pull away like none of Fadel's aggression and violence and outright rejection did -- because it wasn't sincere, and Style could sense that.

When Fadel first drags Style out and starts peppering kisses on his face, Style turns away from his kisses and pulls back/pushes Fadel away from him to start questioning why Fadel is acting so strange. This is the same person who later propositions Fadel in a public bathroom whilst knowing one of the stalls is currently occupied by a stranger, so whilst I fully acknowledge Style probably genuinely did not want his dad to see them necking in his place of work, I'm also convinced it wasn't the only reason.

Because when Fadel allows some honesty to slip out, when he says "Don't you ever think that I'm only like this because of you?", Style actually softens and turns into Fadel's kiss for the first time in the scene. His hands go from pushing upwards at Fadel's neck to clenching softly against his shoulder and upper arm, like he's finally able to relax and hold Fadel closer (you can actually see the difference in these screenshots compared to the ones above). Style stops resisting and sinks into the kiss, lets his eyes almost slip close because something in him recognises that Fadel spoke true.

The same thing happens in Style's bedroom when Fadel continues his charade: Style is smiling, but there's a distinctly uncomfortable and awkward air about it, and he actually pulls away when Fadel continues to sniff-kiss him while going on and on about loving the way Style smells like gasoline. Fadel tries to be clingy again and Style outright calls him out on how weird he's being, so Fadel is forced to backtrack into sincerity:

Suddenly, Style's wariness turns to excitement and interest; he happily agrees to come along and asks what he should get Bison as a gift. Fadel is literally torturing himself to keep up this excessive affection and tenderness (the away Fadel's softness and sweetness just drops once Style goes to take that shower. Ugh. T_T) and gets nothing from Style until he offers something genuine -- a request for time to celebrate someone Fadel truly loves.

In fact, it's the pieces of honesty (or at least I'm assuming that this is also true since he was honest about Bison's birthday), and only those, that Style responds positively to. We have seen Style flirting constantly in previous episodes but he literally has not said anything scandalous or suggestive so far, nor has he initiated any affection even once until this moment.

And the reason why I love all this SO MUCH is because it really shows the evidence of Style's words before he even says them. In the midst of all the secrets and lies between them, ever since he found out about Fadel's secret and decided he was going to keep pursing him anyway, Style has been chasing and chasing Fadel's sincerity. And each precious revelation that Fadel gave him -- his parents' murder, his inability to trust, his desire for something genuine from Style -- has been carefully stored away in Style's heart like nuggets of gold. Which is why Fadel's performance was doomed from the start; because Style was moved by the true things and not the lies, and Fadel's pretensions can have no effect when Style's heart now has the ability to recognise that which he has already grown to love.

i’m very sorry that society has made you feel this way about your fellow disabled people. i hope you can reflect on why you believe that other people with worse symptoms than you are bringing down this community and giving us a bad name.

(especially in the context of a vent post that is not indicative of whether or not we are “actually trying” in real life.)

i am also sorry that society makes you believe that in order for disabled people to be respected we have to consistently be working toward a nebulous goal of self improvement and overcoming of disability as to not be perceived as lazy and inconsiderate by the world.

i hope you can be kinder and more patient with yourself and your disability in the future, too.
