Keep Teaching. Keep Writing.

Teachers, I’m not in the trenches anymore, but I’m still with you, and here on this day after the 4th of July, I’m still writing about you and for you because I know how hard it is right now. Maybe you feel abandoned by many in your country who so praised your efforts during the pandemic and now question your methods and motives. So much you’re asked to do with so few resources, the rapid rise of…

ok sure you don't believe in god or the church anymore but what are you doing to unlearn the propaganda you wre taught? what are you doing to educate yourself about marginalized groups that the church attacked and that you absorbed subconsciously? how are you challenging your viewpoints on things such as addiction, sexuality, poverty, other religions, disabilities, illness, race, and more without it being through a christian lens? are you careful to not spread propaganda or harmful ideologies? youre ‘reclaiming’ shit for your poetry and healing and thats great i guess, i wish you the best, but what have you actually renounced?

hey can u give tips on improving ur attention span?

INCREASING YOUR ATTENTION SPAN

DAILY MEDITATION. Meditation is known for increasing focus and concentration. Try to increase the minutes you meditate each day, limiting the number of times your mind wanders/

DRINK BLACK TEA. Black tea contains L-theanine which affects the part of your mind which helps with focusing. 

LIMIT DISTRACTIONS, especially those around you. Phones, TV, background noise, or bustling scenery are not the best features for a productive session. A calm, quiet, minimalist area is ideal. 

TAKING SHORT BREAKS BETWEEN. Your brain needs time to recharge and refocus on the task at hand. Some ideas are taking a short walk, meditating, reading. 

START DOCUMENTING THE TIMES WHEN YOUR MIND WANDERS. This helps you to be more aware of anything that may need to change. E.g my mind wanders more in the afternoon than at night, so I’ll do most of my work in the afternoon. 

REGULAR EXERCISE. When there’s more blood in the brain, our concentration increases, so be sure to find ways to get your body moving and blood pumping. 

CREATE A MINIMALIST WORKSPACE. Remove distracting decor, add reminders of anything productive and make it comfortable enough that you focus for long periods.

The girls will play

Submissions closed

Hello historical simblr! Inspired by my deep love for media with an ensemble female cast, non linear narratives and situations no one would want to be stuck in, I have decided to start a sims story with all that set against a backdrop of WWII.

The story will take place in the above named boarding school and will be semi bacc (build a city challenge) inspired, therefore, I am asking for you to offer up your 1940s teenagers in need of a proper English education with no frills and fuss. I will be accepting up to seven sims for now, and there is no deadline- just until I get all seven.

Feel free to let me know exactly who your teenager is: Are there full of airs and in need of their corners being rubbed down? Are they a good sport who loves a trick? Are they the dreaded drawling American? let me know everything!

Submission rules:

seven students allowed

female teenagers only please

maxis match cc only please (disclaimer i may change eyes and skin blend to suit my style). twentiethcenturysims, antiquatedfinds, chereindolente are several of many wonderful 1940s cc resource simblrs.

no occults

likes and dislikes allowed and encouraged

skills will all be set to zero

uniform already selected so feel free to choose their other outfits- one per category please. I have all the packs so don't worry

give your sims as much backstory as you like- you can look to british boarding school stories like enid blyton's malory towers and build on those archetypes or not. Be as creative as you like.

please tag me in your submission!

Disclaimer: this story is set in the time of ww2, as a result, themes of war and the inevitable loss that comes with it will be explored.Also I think it would be remiss not to acknowledge the prejudice towards people from the "colonies" that was endemic at the time so mine is unfortunately not a colour or sex blind world. Still, my story would not be centred on pain and struggle, but rather joy.

[dysgeographica]

what’s dysgeographica?

dysgeographica, also known as developmental topographical disorientation, is a form of neurodivergence in which a person has difficulty creating mental maps, orienting themselves or a location in space, and navigating from place to place.

some common symptoms of dysgeographica include:

getting lost easily, even in one's own neighborhood or other extremely familiar locations

difficulty memorizing even simple or frequently traveled routes

no internal compass (i.e. no sense of which way one is facing or if one has been turned around)

no sense of where familiar locations are in relation to each other

difficulty making a mental map of a building or area's layout

uncertainty about which direction a location is in, even if one knows how to get there

complete reliance on GPS navigation while traveling

rigidly following one familiar route to get somewhere, even if a better route may be available

anxiety around driving a car due to lack of confidence in one's ability to navigate as the driver

is dysgeographica just a poor sense of direction?

while many people struggle to read maps or navigate unfamiliar places, being dysgeographic means struggling with very familiar locations as well as unfamiliar ones, potentially getting lost in one's own neighborhood or workplace.

additionally, while someone who just has a poor sense of direction will generally still be able to move through the world and perform daily life activities with little to no added difficulty or distress, dysgeographic people will often find that their difficulty navigating makes day-to-day functioning more difficult (e.g. being late to work regularly due to getting lost, not being able to drive a car or travel alone).

is dysgeographica part of adhd/autism/etc?

it is possible to have dysgeographica with comorbid autism, adhd, dyslexia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia, etc. it's also possible to experience dysgeographic symptoms as secondary to one of those (e.g. having trouble navigating due to adhd inattention).

that being said, dysgeographica is not inherently connected to any other form of neurodivergence, and can be the only neurodivergence someone has. you don't need to be diagnosed with anything else to have dysgeographica.

is dysgeographica a disability?

yes, dysgeographica is a neurodevelopmental disability.

it is not, however, recognized as such by the DSM or ICD, despite research showing evidence of its existence and the impact it can have on people's lives. that doesn’t mean it’s not a real disability — what it does mean is that it can be very difficult (if not impossible) to get accommodations.

while dysgeographica would most likely not be categorized as a specific learning disability, it does have some overlap with dyscalculia and dyslexia, and can be considered a “cousin” of the specific learning disabilities much in the same way as dyspraxia.

I made one of them "Comfort Characters in Car" art things so here they be. From left to right: Winter King (Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake), Spamton (Deltarune), And Mister Demi (Fundamental Paper Education). Both Winter King and Demi are tired of Spamton's talking and are considering throwing him out.
