#student trash

[alifelearned]

Every April London, Ontario experiences a huge outflux of students as they finish their semesters and head home for the summer break. This always leads to literally TONS of perfectly usable items being trashed when they could otherwise be donated. Living next door to a property where this was a particularly glaring issue, I simply couldn't stand by without acting. Thus over the last 5 years I have found ways to progressively save more and more of these perfectly usable items by bringing them to the thrift store. This year I was successful in bringing 27 loads of reusable items from the students waste straight to charity. Here's hoping I'm even more successful with these waste diversion efforts in future years!

Does the Jhiaxus academy exist in the Monster Hunter AU?

Does Shockwave have his little class of outlier trash children?

I must know ahhh, I love this AU so much

--- Thunderwave

Yes yes absolutely. His academy. And his outlier trash children. Yep.

He uses his academy to grant diplomas and documents to creatures that by all functionalistic rules should be considered monsters, but thanks to his magic of bureaucracy, are considered "magically gifted mechs"

Council: What's that?

Shockwave: I dug up a bunch of homeless carnivorous kids in a ditch and now I'm teaching them to read, write and summon eldritch demons

Council:

anytime I think of modern laios I jump with joy, like thinking of this man just casually living with you and being boyfriends is so cute ☹️💭

HE IS SUCH. A GOOD BOYFRIEND.

like don’t get me wrong he comes with his flaws. I’m pretty sure his lack of communication skills can be a big issue. He probably fails to accurately explain how he’s feeling. People will flirt with him and he never really puts them in their place or shuts them down (he doesn’t pick up on it). And like. With his “creative pallete” I’m sure the toilet has PTSD from him but…

he’s genuinely such a sweet guy and never fails to make you feel loved. He gives you creative compliments that aren’t based on looks or whatever but like. Just niche things he notices about you? Like the way you always feed your pet before you or how you scrunch your nose when you’re popping a pimple or how your pitchy, loud laughter has a cute little noise at the end.

and he notices good traits about you that you don’t? how you inspire others/dutifully do your work/etc. when he compliments you or kinda doubles as reassurance because he compliments you on a job well done pm.

he also actually cooks and does the dishes too. He likes meal planning and surprising you with food he thinks you’ll like 🥺💞

He likes to go grocery shopping with you and try new things..he’s a partner that makes mundane things a stress relieving experience. he’s just like? therapeutic to be around tbh

I think Laios also talks about you a lot LOL I don’t think he can help it. It’s just like. He connects the most random dots sometimes and people are like “uhm okay anyways”

There’s really nothing like being a science student: that feeling of both drowning in work and stress but also somehow enjoying it at the same time.

I’m in the process of moving out and my room looks like a location in Disco Elysium.

Thinking about the terrible space facts: most of these are terrible due to no/micro-gravity (the bones, the toilet, the bread ban) and a lot of sci-fi avoids all that by handwaving artificial gravity. Fine, acceptable, especially for live-action filming… but the primary one that’s NOT zero-g related is the fact that the walls are damp and moldy. That’s due to the space station being a closed system: when you breathe out, there’s no atmosphere for your breath to evaporate to, so the vapor just condenses on the walls.

prompting the VERY important question

is ART creepy and wet

Cigarettes make me so fucking horny. I grew up a teacher's daughter and now I'm a dean's list honors student who can't even break rules that I disagree with. My weakness will forever be bad boys and dropouts who blow smoke in my face and get me nervous and threaten to beat me up and and and

Literally just be freer than I ever could imagine and corrupt me and shut my brain off and put me in my place and I'm all yours

Someone pissed me off a couple of days ago

So! Below are several links to programs and foundations that promote adult literacy! Hundreds of millions of adults world wide were failed by their education system and now must fend for themselves while trying to read contracts and hospital bills and infographics from the CDC. But they don't have to be alone, and it is never too late to learn!

ProLiteracy: A network of educators, researchers, and advocates which provides research reports, learning materials, and other support to adult education programs. They assist with connecting volunteers to local programs and provide guidance and support to community leaders trying to use their programs' findings to advocate for social and political change.

Adult Literacy League: An adult education program in Central Florida, which aims to provide students with one on one attention to foster growth and confidence. It also offers English Second Language courses and job skills training, and each new student receives a comprehensive assessment to determine the best plan for them.

Saint Vincent and Sarah Fisher Center's Foundational Skills Program: A 100% free adult education program aimed at adults reading below a fifth grade level. It operates year round and is either in person or remote, and they now have a GED testing center that is open to students and the public alike.

Washtenaw Literacy: A free network of trained tutors for adults in Washtenaw County, Michigan.

Adult Learning Program (Las Vegas/Clark County): Free education classes to those lacking a high school diploma, those seeking to learn ESL, and adults who read below an eighth grade level. Also assists in students' search for gainful employment. Nevada got so fucked by COVID and the education/literacy numbers in the South West are grim. Please help these guys.

Hawaii Literacy: In addition to helping adult residents of Hawaii Island learn to read and write AND bridging the education gap in Hawaii's underserved children, they offer computer literacy classes, ESL classes, and a bookmobile. 1 in 6 Hawaiian adults struggle to read and write.

I have only been here 4 days and have had numerous women here as patients inform us that they received help with their instrumental activities of daily living like being driven to doctors appointments, grocery shopping, etc from a man they considered a friend but that said man was attempting to coerce them into sex for continued assistance.
