barbara forgetting to put her shoes on in the abbott ep last night may be hands down the best gag of the whole season
#also sorry for being a hater but that is not really regional educational conferences work 😭#they are NOT going to comp you a hotel room for that shit#your ass is driving home#i know it’s the point and the joke but barbara and melissa’s behavior was so unprofessional and inconsistent with their characterization#i’ll let it slide only because it is a regional conference#but if they had to travel out of state and acted like that… 🔪#i don’t like how they toggle back and forth on barbara#does she know everything or does she still have much to learn#can she only learn from her younger peers or can she also learn from establishment forces like educational conferences and tech innovations#as someone pretty ensconced in academia the idea of her and melissa phoning it in at the conference#or like being proven right for refusing innovations like new tech and juice with more nutrients and less sugar#is pretty irritating to me#Juice in particular. like. nope barbara was wrong on that one. i refuse to believe the juice change would’ve caused a sea change#in bathroom usage that dramatically#and like i know it’s just jokes but >:(#anyway back to my point#as a burgeoning academic the idea that it’s acceptable for established teachers not to keep up with the literature in the educational field#is upsetting to me#that’s precisely what conferences are for…#and i would think it’s#more important for teachers than Academics TM because they probably don’t have the time to comb through the latest peer-reviewed articles

One underrepresented genre in Star Wars fics seem to be individual clone-centric narratives, especially in time travel fics, which are my favorites. Not just clone culture- and I LOVE speculative takes on clone culture- but picking your favorite guy in particular, separating him out from the whole of the brotherhood of the clone army and going "okay, what will he do now?"

a lil tip, a lil Suggestion for anyone who plans to have kids or who already has tiny kids....
if you have a choice, maybe don't live in a location where the only thing surrounding you for miles and miles is just more houses :/
like, either live somewhere where there's easy access to nature/outdoor recreation, or live somewhere where there's easy access to a wide variety of activities - museums, sports, concert venues, rec centers, music lessons, dance lessons, blah blah.
maybe don't live somewhere where it will be a huge inconvenience for you to take your kid out to do/see things that interest them on a regular basis.
it is so fucking depressing to be a kid and to almost never get to do or see anything you think is neat because it's Too Far for your parents to feel like taking you there.
honestly like. it's a big enough deal that i legit feel like parents should absolutely be willing to completely relocate if it means living somewhere where their kid can do what makes them happy.
like, if you live in fuckinnn florida and your kid wants to be a rock climber, you better pack your shit up and move to colorado or whereverthefuck. if you live in kansas and your kid wants to surf, move to california, goddammit.
i mean obviouslyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy it's not always possible to live anywhere but where you're currently living for a myriad of reasons, but if it is possible, even if it's not easy, please please please don't doom your kid to a childhood of longing and unfulfillment just because you live in the wrong place omg.

Bro just remembered why are so much of my friends opps.
today at lunch UNPROMPTED my friend was like “why don’t you have an accent like your mom” and it’s like it was so out of nowhere for no reason. And I was like wdym so she was like your mom has a Spanish accent and when I was like I don’t really notice it I don’t think it’s that strong she was like “that’s because you live with her”. that honestly had me pressed bc like first of all my moms English is amazing she is like completely fluent and has not had any problems in the OVER 20 years she has lived in this country. But also like English is my first language wdym why don’t I have an accent of someone who’s esl.

writing this trans john/abi fic exploring john’s relationships with jack from that perspective rly just has me thinking about his daughter who died. like. hypothetically, in this au, she could be javiers. she could also be abi’s again obviously, and im obvi not opposed to that either because the thought of them actually choosing to have a kid and it dying is also really sad to me, but the thought of her being javier’s and dying either at birth or super early on because of all the bad shit john has to endure right around the end of the gang is FUCKING with me like my eyes are watery and im in a fetal position on the floor

Tumblr talking about making its site the same algorithmic slop pile as every other social media bc the users migrating here are too soft brained to curate their own feeds
Tumblr media
#You dont understand tumblr is the only site that im able to use bc its not algorithmic slop#I can barely use youtube anymore bc i will get trapped in the vortex of shorts and suggested videos#I like tumblr bc unlike instagram twitter etc it allows you to create your own feed rather than force feeding you random posts#But lately it HAS been doing that & staff just released a statement basically amounting to ''new users are too confused so we're gonna pad#everything out'' corpspeak for ''we need to make the twitter refugees feel more at home by copying their dogshit falling apart site''#Tbh i actually enjoy tumblr as a much more niche site i think that by making other ppl realize its just a regular ass blogging site theyre#gonna clog it all up more than it already is. Not like it isnt already crammed to the gills with reactionary assholes#Like the reasons i stopped going to twitter was A. stupid bullshit like locking me out 4 no phone number and B. people driving me insane#I do NOT need the people that would trigger my mental illness on a nightly basis coming here to spread their spores#Namely the dramabrained weirdos looking for problems in everything and reactionaries that already exist here but will proliferate#Tumblr ALREADY isnt doing jackshit about t€rves or fash why the fuck would they do anything about a massive influx of them#Sorry i needed to bitch a little. Love this site but also hate the web3.0 philosophy of dumbing everything down#When are we crawling back into the primordial sea we came from (neocities and forums)#emf

the first time EY "stole" those headphones, the shop owner didn't have any proof it was him. despite this, he insisted on calling his dad, proposed to call the cops, and showed very little sympathy for a child literally getting beaten up by their father right in front of him.
-> why?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
he felt disrespected bc of how EY talked to him. it stopped being abt the headphones before his dad even arrived. he just wanted to see the kid who disrespected him shut up, apologize, and admit he was wrong. especially considering how many people were watching and talking abt their argument -> gotta save face and restore your credibility & pride.
this is why, in a way, his dad wasn't wrong to tell him to apologize bc he knew that's what the shop owner wanted to hear. sometimes, the quickest way to solve the issue is to give the person what they want (in this case, an apology) and walk away.

i read all 205 chapters of demon slayer last night in one 11 hour sitting. it was pretty good! surprise! the anime people have been raving about for the past several years is actually good quality. who would have thunk it. anyway i wanted to search up some reviews of the anime to see what other ppl thought of it but then i remembered the youtube anime community, with a few notable exceptions, is allergic to media literacy
#demon slayer#tanjiro is a very good protag and really embodies the themes of the story#very fresh too kind of like emma tpn#hes got a phat ass and wining personality like all other shounen protags but unlike most he isnt just talk#like he actually goes the extra mile to purposely be kind and it justifies why ppl like him so much a lot better i think#i was unfair in comparing it to bnha when i didnt even watch it#bc unlike bnha the author has a clear direction and kept things concise to drive home the poin#every character and plot point had a purpose#at least it does now since i havent had much time to actually pick at it yet#but anyway its got the standard shounen sexism but i think it was a LOT better than like. bnha or naruto#the girls are few and far between and arent as deep as the boys mostly#but i liked the love hashiras examination of womanhood in the taisho era#and the depiction of sex workers is surprisingly respectful#also the romance subplots arent forced (cough izuocha cough) like maybe you get the sense the characters have crushes?#but like! there are demons eating people! who tf cares! “im glad kanao isn't dead” yeah tanjiro me too youre such a romantic#but yeah the romance between the love and serpent hashira was pretty nice if lowkey#and otherwise i like how the ending just indicates that they may begin to like each other and the epilogue indicates they eventually did#how did it happen? idk! what the fanfics come up with would be better than what the manga would have squeezed in!#also i love how inosuke wanted a homoerotic sasunaru-bakudeku rivalry with tanjiro but tanjiro was too nice#and for the pervert/coward type character zenitsu was fairly likeable as well#i was worried nezuko was just going to be a glorified macguffin for tanjiro but she at least DID have agency sometimes#though i think they should have explored how she felt about the demon thing more and also show her casually with tanjiro#bc it feels like they only show her doing stuff when its a big angsty battle but i want her and tanjiro to annoy each other a bit!#shut up pandora

I'm finishing up the script for that lil comic about how Cadfael and Monty met and have officially decided to do that thing Elden Ring does where you can tell who's related to who based on their names but in a Much stupider way.
#Maddox and Majella can both be surnames#Specifically so they can also have the 'is that your first or your last name?' bit when they introduce themselves as Montgomery#Cassidy and Calvin are too but thats just bc i couldn't be fucked to change the search terms when i was trying to find names for them#Calvins name was almost just ' irrelevant' bc he has no lines in this comic and is there to sorta smile and look pretty and like. be there#i forgot about Merrick in the original draft too. but tbh im considering cutting him lest his existence accidentally implies the#king and queen are siblings#but I guess I can also throw in an extra line about Maddox training guards for many families?#Tbh i might imply Merrick is dead if i do that to really drive home the whole#'maddox is training orphans to be meat shields for the wealthy' thing tm.#he didn't even name the 1 kid he acquired who wasnt pre named.#like dont get me wrong#Maddox Loves the kids he trains. He adores them and absolutely thinks of every single one as his children. Hes still a bitch ass#fairy? Idk what Maddox is but hes selling children and training them to be willing to die for a more important child#Loves his kids. Fucked up guy. Maddox#Caspian doesn't exist yet im the comic so I dont have to figure a guard out for him until later#tbh (Caspians guard) Merrick and Majella all kinda exist to get fucked over and die as fire monster to kick off Cadfael's downward spiral#The king and queen also are just there to die but they die After the spiral starts
