“They engineered a psychopath to kill you.”

#I don't know if this makes sense but I'm having fun#this is not an attempt to assign meaning to 'psychopath' but to explore how river relates to the identifier in relation to her trauma#and obvs not trying to equate implications of what river does with kovarian- rather examine how the abuse shaped her#river song#doctor who#ive got so many ideas for these and im wasting my 'time off' making gifs instead of taking advantage of#the ability to ignore work emails to get done other massive work projects. oh well#you know what. since this is my second media set in a row ima start tagging them like so-#edits by seaweed#words by seaweed#madame kovarian#crispy!master#the master#I deliberately didnt include the psychopath lines from Picnic at Asgard bc im saving it for a set about River as a demiurge :D#oh and I'm saving 'my bespoke psychopath' for a possible yowzah post surrounding 'two psychopaths is too much for one tardis' line#is SO much easier to do this to express my thoughts than writing words. you don't even KNOW how many incoherent essays in my drafts#okay ima get back to work#and then sleep

how the fuck did my english class manage to take a semi-positive stance on generative ai
#im actually so pissed about this rn#we were doing an assignment about ai and plagarism#and i was expecting a firmly anti-ai stance#cause yk. english class. writing.#and also schools are usually anti ai (at least from what iv experienced)#instead what i got told was that generative ai is alright to use so long as the teacher gives you permission and you cite it as a source#like???? no??????? its still not ethical to use????#youre an english teacher writing and literature is literally your whole thing how are you okay with generative ai?????#i was sitting there fuming the whole time#like i wrote out an entire paragraph explaining that generative ai is NOT in fact okay to use#yk on account of it stealing from writers and artists#and also being HORRIBLE for the environment#but i didnt get the chance to say that because the teacher didnt even open the discussion of the ethics of ai in general#just about what it was and what makes it constitute as plagiarism#which i find to be incredibly ironic given that ai literally plagiarises everything#ALSO WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU LETTING STUDENTS USE AI#SO LONG AS THEYRE “GIVEN PERMISSION” AND “CITE” IT LIKE ITS NOT THEIR WORK DOESNT MATTER IF THEY CITE IT OR NOT#ITS NOT THE SAME AS JUST GETTING SOURCES LIKE FOR A RESEARCH ESSAY#ITS STEALING#HOW THE FUCK IS THAT FAIR TO THE PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY PUT IN THE EFFORT????#anti ai#fuck ai#stop ai#fuck ai everything#i hate ai

community college is so funny because half of the teachers are like "For this class you need to use lockdown browser for all quizzes and tests. You need to buy this 70 dollar textbook, and all papers turned in must be in APA format with a title page even if they're only 500 words long. I will not accept late assignments. Also you have a minimum of 4 assignments a week." and the other half are like "you don't need proctoring for the final exam I trust you. here's a download link to a pirated copy of the textbook. as long as your writing is coherent and demonstrates an understanding of the material I literally could not care less what format you use. I can't figure out how canvas works so I'm not giving you due dates, just make sure it's turned in before the grading period ends. your only weekly assignment is a forum post with a minimum of 100 words."
#my favorite teacher so far is still the film history professor I had in my first semester.#he was very old and didn't understand how canvas worked at all and sometimes had trouble opening a video file#but simultaneously he was tech literate enough to recommend we use firefox with an ad blocker#because whenever someone missed class and was like 'where do i go to find the movie' he'd be like 'use an ad blocker and google it'#he said the school made him stop emailing links to free movie sites because people would open them on chrome with no ad block#and there'd be borderline malware on them. like this guy gave me the impression he was like. a veteran movie pirate lol.#that class had barely any assignments. like there wasn't a final exam or anything.#he just wanted us to write a paragraph or so answering a few questions about the movies we watched. it was chill.#and i also learned a lot actually. like i didn't know what a nickelodeon was before then. or the Hays Code.#the movies were genuinely good. i never thought Id be that into old black and white movies or westerns for example but they actually slapped#some of them had really mature themes and i definitely started to understand the people on this website who are like#'if the only media you consume is children's media you should maybe branch out instead of calling steven universe problematic'#because a lot of the movies we watched depicted very 'problematic' things and were able to directly address them because they are for adults#(to clarify I didn't just like kids media before then. i just mean that it introduced me to some older stuff i didn't think I'd like)#(but i ended up liking a lot. it also made me realize that movies made today are kind of shit. which i also already knew)#(but it put it more into perspective because I have more to compare it to)#im rambling now. community college is pretty swag i enjoy it. and i do get along with the teachers who have crazy requirements too lol.

i think the point of a university-level education is a bit lost on some of my course mates...
#things are not going to be spoon fed to you you will have to do your own research#seek out your own education guided by lectures and assignments#relish that freedom instead of lamenting it!!#some of these assignments are actually good and ive been able to tailor them to my interests#like rn im learning about the uses of bracken in ancient scotland!#i just did a whole project on tomato grafting (i love solanaceae - tomato family) and whilst it was hard i did enjoy reading about it#we had some mini essays to research and they were so interesting to research and fun to write because one of them was a comparing two#articles and one of them was really bad so it was fun to rip it to shreds and actually apply the knowledge we've been accumulating in class#but i think the point of doing all this is lost on some of them#which is a real shame#maybe im just a nerd?#i very much have the benefit of doing a degree before this so maybe im being harsh#but saying that assessments suck doesnt make them any more interesting#also we have so much free reign over topic that if it sucks it's kind of on you a lil bit#though i will admit some of the assignments are stupid

1, 2, 3, 4 seconds. Might just be her new record.
As she pulled away, that annoying face came into her view again. He was hard to see, as he was an all-black silhouette standing in a dark room, the only help being the flickering lights sometimes daring to lay on his suit’s edges and revealing where he was standing.
This time though, instead of a sabre at his side like always, there was a cane. A black piece of wood topped by what looked to be a...crow head… Inej blinked once; then blinked again. Nope, still a crow head. A silvery, angry, crow staring at her with those little bead eyes.

guys im doing it im actually going to figure out wtf was going on with jensen and ethan
update: omfg this is actually so fun?? like things are starting to make sense???
update 2: oh this is so good. not only am i upping the ~drama~ im actually coming up with hcs for ethan?? for so long ive just kinda avoided him because he wasn't a meaningful part of my canon, but now that he is im actually, dare I say, having,, fun? exploring his character
#FOR CONTEXT:#i never definitively decided if ethan had a thing for jensen or if i was going to change it from canon#and now im actuslly going to write it all out and decide how its going to go#i think (shockingly) im going to make ethan worse than he was in canon so itll at least change a little#but anyway woo gonna do this instead of assignments yay me#please ask questions if youd like!!

I had multiple dreams last night.
I had a bf </3
someone in my family got bit by a zombie </3
some guy made me explain narrative structure to him </3
#ameera speaks#1 expanded) it was someone ik in real life 😔 which sucks soooo bad anyway he was at mine and we were watching a movie in my bed on my#laptop < (loser behaviour) and okay so im lying by referring to him as my bf bc we were just friends in the dream but then he started like#acting well intimate and i wasnt not into it so i was like hey whats going on here and we had a talk and then i had to sneak him out of my#house. dream 2) zombie apocalypse im in my room my nephews and nieces come in and i usher them out. the world is the samw just + zombies.#like think covid when it was dire but schools were still open? (my dream was a commentary on the countries failures to manage covid) so i#usher my neohews and nieces out and i make a comment to my sister in law like ooh im scared one of them got bit and my nephew was like some#girl bit me at school today and i told his mum and i stayed in my room and like an hour later i rang her like whats the update#and she was like oh yeah and came into my room to find my journal on zombie stuff and sge was like should i just cut off his arm and i was#idk try but if that doesnt work youre gonna have to... and she was SO CASUALLL !!!! and as she was leaving she started like picking things#up off the floor and i made a comment like your sons dying and youre sweeping and she was like way harsh tai and i woke up#that one was a commentsry on covid and also how i might be too mean to my sister in laws sometimes#3) i was in a library with friends researching smth and some asian guy sits on our table turns his back to us and talks to his friends.#then he starts playing music loudly from his phone and i move back to my table and as im walking he stops me and starts talking to some#girl on the table next to mine who he knows and is like hey i have an assignment due where i have to write a compelling narrative from my#own life ur clever can u help and she was a stem girly and went highschool with me and she pointed at me like ask her she does english#and he was like no u just tell me and she started helping him but i felt the advice she was giving was.. bad. so i interrupted like dont#you think that you should do __ instead and we had a discussion about it till i woke up. < that dream was a commentary on how useless my#degree is and how i wish it wasnt useless

oughghlk have you heard this cover of forbidden friendship, i listened to it years ago and had to learn (a simpler version of) it on the piano because it was SO moving
i've loved a lot of stories over the years, but something about httyd wrenches my heart especially
WOW WOW WOW that cover is so beautiful. my only thoughts are just WOW. legitimately got chills starting around the 2 min mark and then around the 3-minute mark? wow. i dont know piano but i highkey wish i did. that cover is incredibly underrated i am shocked that it doesnt have more likes and views.
httyd is not only such a moving story but like the lore and the dragons pulls me in. i watched the netflix series "race to the edge" which i dont think is canon to the second movie but it introduced so many cool dragons and characters and made me really fall in love with the groups dynamics and UGH. i got obsessed with it a few years ago and i decided to rewatch the movies and series and IMMEDIATELY was sucked in again. i underestimated how much of a dragon nerd i am.
anyway im rambling sdfjdslkfs but thank you SO MUCH @maridotnet for 'bothering' me with this it made me very happy.
#let me tell you#this is NOT quelling my desire to write a httyd AU#if one (1) person asks me to talk about this on here i will#i already made a thread for it in a server so idk why im acting like i wont write it (when my schedule frees up)#but ill play hard to get for a bit#the minute i finish assigning everyone dragons it is OVER#and im using race to the edge dragons also which lets me have so much more fun with it#literally just wanted an excuse to explore dragon applications and training stuff#also physical injuries not only that id imagine one would not only get from dragon riding#but taking the time period/viking lifestyle into account.#id have to do research to do it well which is why i need TIME#so i hope i dont lose steam on it#sdsfkd this ask rlly opened the floodgates huh#okay im done now#(aka im gonna ramble to a server instead of in these tags)#(ive mentioned before i cannot shut up)#okay done fr now#ask response

ok going to try and sleep for a bit...
#im a little fucked on my assignments because it turns out that there are 2 must submit assignments and 2 extra credit ones but the problem#is. i don't one want to do one of the must do ones. because it's a timeline of 32 things and i have to write atleast 3-4#sentences each....which ik that's suppperrr lazy of me#so if i do only the other one and the extra credit#i will have to insure i make a 80-85 in order to pass instead of a 77 or above#sighhhhh#this is all my fault tho#when imeam 80-85 imeant that as my final exam grade

starting to feel Intense Guilt (tm) over only have written a few sentences of dion fic after 2 weeks of break. it is Not helping me feel any more ready to continue writing in earnest
#i got the ffxvi theatrhythm back#and it was difficult to play thru my headache#i want to take responsibility and write#but the exhaustion is mixing w the lost habit from my intended week long break#and now im like.#maybe i should just wait til secret santa assignment#and focus on that instead#i felt like a fool when it took me 2 months to update#when others could do 14k in a week#n the thought that next chapter#is gonna take 3 months#is breaking me#brihamut's mercy

got to write the most beautiful ass assignment for the class i have a 9% in lol. the prompt was pretty vague so i ran with it and did some personal storytelling. i hope its emotionally potent enough to get me a 100% so i can have a 50% in the course 🥲 anyway im feeling significantly less miserable so thats a good sign. was probs just being dramatic earlier as per usual
#if i just keep getting 100s i can get a B or maybe even an A in the class… ahaha#there arent many assignments urgh#theres a big project coming up so i hope i do well on that#this course uses really convoluted academic language#and im convinced its confusing on purpose#i like the vibes though#im just glad its not cf#and i get to read about different cultures#instead of my leadership dev class at cf where i had to write about why john mccain is sooo awesome and cool#😀
