“I don’t think of myself as a sad person necessarily. Whenever I write songs, it’s my outlet for a certain feeling. I just don’t as often feel compelled to write when I’m not really sad about something, or wanting to sort through something dark.”

I know we joke about how much Ilya menaces Scott but can we talk about how he lives in Hayden’s walls for a second. He’s fucking the man’s best friend. His wife loves him. He’s his children’s favorite. They call him uncle. He can’t escape. Everywhere he turns, Ilya is there. He’s forced to be the best man at his mortal enemy’s wedding. He’s living his own worst nightmare.

I know Ilya never forgets Jackie's birthday and it drives Hayden absolutely fucking insane.

THE PITT — 2.04 "10:00 A.M."

They teach you that 5-paragraph essay structure in high school, but they don't teach you that absolutely no one who actually writes essays in their professional or academic life actually *uses* that 5-paragraph structure.

[quasi-normalcy]

Also, if you use "In summary and in conclusion..." academics will think you're WEAK and CAN'T SURVIVE THE WINTER

[homoluigi]

the 5 paragraph essay is a minimum format to demonstrate skills (mostly supporting main ideas with evidence) for state testing. The goal of the English teacher is to drill you until you can shit out five paragraphs without noticing or thinking about it.

Only a tiny percent of the student body will go on to careers where they regularly have to write, and if they do they should have enough writing talent to break out of that stale format. The vast majority of people do all of their life's reading and writing in high school/college and then stop. I know it's hard to believe since we're on the reading and writing webbed site, but we're actually the odd ones.

[motherfuckingnazgul]

I cannot overstate the degree to which the five-paragraph essay structure should be used as a foundation for the development of skill in essay writing and presentation of arguments.

I can tell you with the full authority of being more than halfway through a PhD that I still plan essays like they're going to be five-paragraph format. I write an introduction (which is usually 2-3 paragraphs, depending on how much groundwork I need to do), usually 3 body sections (which are always like 3-5 paragraphs, depending on the overall length of the essay and how unhinged the paragraph in question is), and a conclusion in which I restate the thesis and then usually do a little "so what" work.

It's not exactly the same as a five-paragraph, but learning that structure in high school gave me something to build on in early college, and now I've written two MA theses and am about to embark on a dissertation using that as the bones, more or less, of most of the structural work I do in putting together my arguments. It works pretty fucking well, actually.

THIS JUST IN: teachers start students off with a basic, simplified version of things in order to teach foundational skills! citizens everywhere shocked and outraged.

i hate twitter

[isnt-that-wizardd]

i was fully aware of how well hudson understood shane to the core simply based on his acting choices and never once have i doubted that he is the perfect casting choice but literally every time he gets the chance to talk more about shane's thoughts and feelings or the specific choices he made when playing out a scene i want to cry because NO ONE GETS IT LIKE HE DOES

Wait for the delivery man to drop off whatever. You can trust me.
