Aaaaallways reblog

[whoopdyprompts]

aahhh this is a godsend

[viciousvales]

this site definitely doesn't allow you to paste the link to any article blocked by a paywall (say, a NYT article) so that you can read it free of charge! that would be illegal and would benefit broke college students too much. it definitely does not do that. promise.

[afronerdism]

Check out @morecolormedia on ig for more

[reasoningwithvampires]

With the 'neither/nor' stuff up you posted, shouldn't it be "neither Edward nor me", not "neither Edward nor I" as well? I was always under the impression that if you could replace the characters with "we", it becomes "I" and if you can replace them with "us" it becomes me. It makes more sense to say "neither of us" as opposed to "neither of we". Or have I mis-recalled this?

Meyer was correct to use “I.” You’re half-right with your logic.

It’s a subject (doer of action - I love Edward) versus object (recipient of action - Edward loves me) issue.

If you can change the names of two people into “we,” you have a subject so you use the pronoun “I” along with a name (in this case “Edward”). “We [didn’t] miss…” sounds correct, so you can safely use, “Neither Edward nor I…”

Another way to figure that out is to eliminate the second person. If Edward is taken out, you can test the sentence with “I” or “me.” Since “I [didn’t] miss…” sounds correct, but “Me [didn’t] miss…” doesn’t, then you know to use “I” with Edward to correctly form a subject.

You got a false positive by changing it to “neither of us” because if you change it to “neither of us,” you shift the subject to “neither” so it’s “Neither (of us) missed…” The reason “us” sounds correct is because “us” is the object of the preposition “of,” not the subject doing the action.

Want to avoid reading misogynist jackasses? Try women.

I’ve been following the latest re: Junot Diaz, and before that, I was having my heart broken by Sherman Alexie, and I just read @plaidadder ‘s brilliant post about misogyny in literature, and I just kinda want to spit. But, instead, let me recommend some favorite FEMALE authors. Not that they’re perfect, of course, but I’m a whole lot more comfortable making this list than I would be any other right now.

1. Louise Erdrich: My hands-down favorite author, Erdrich mostly writes Native-influenced or Native-adjacent stories with elements of mysticism or fantasy in them. Many of her books have overlapping characters. You can’t go wrong, but if you haven’t ever read her work, I recommend starting with either Love Medicine (older) or The Round House (more recent). 

2. Mary Shelley: Mary Shelley invented sci-fi, y’all. She wrote Frankenstein: or, The Modern Prometheus at twenty and changed how we all think about literature. If you’ve never read it, do yourself a favor.

3. Zora Neale Hurston: I’ve read a lot of books. I’m always concentrated on dialogue. And for my money, nobody does it as well as Zora Neale Hurston did. Obviously, if you haven’t, you should read Their Eyes Were Watching God, but please also read her autobiography, Dust Tracks on a Road.

4. Dorothy Allison: Dorothy Allison holds a place in my heart I can’t quite describe. Her Bastard Out of Carolina is still one of the most emotionally difficult novels I’ve ever read. What really makes me soar, though, is her short story book, Trash. 

5. Mary Karr: Mary Karr writes memoirs. The best memoirs I’ve ever read. The Liar’s Club, about her childhood in Texas, is probably my favorite, but her most recent book, the non-fiction how-to book The Art of Memoir, is nearly as good.

6. Angela Carter: Bury yourself in the feminist magical realism novels and short stories Angela Carter gifted us. You won’t be sorry. They’re fairy tales of the very best kind.

7. Sarah Waters: Sarah Waters has released six British historical novels, spinning around lesbian romances, deviant behaviors, and various intrigues. Every single one of them is fantastic. Her third book, Fingersmith, is my personal favorite. 

8. Pam Houston: As I’m sure I’ve mentioned, I am a girl who loves a Western. Unfortunately, Westerns written by women are rare on the ground. Pam Houston’s short story book, Cowboys Are My Weakness, is the contemporary feminist western collection I didn’t know existed. I adore it. Her other books are also good, particularly her essay collection, A Little More About Me. 

9.  Sandra Cisneros: I have a distinct memory of the first time I read The House on Mango Street, and it’s come to me like a smell each of the many times I’ve opened the book since then. Cisneros makes you FEEL what she’s writing. The rest of her books are nearly as good, and definitely don’t skip the sometimes-erotic poetry in Loose Women. I haven’t read her latest, which is non-fiction stories and essays, but I really ought to get on that.

10. Jesmyn Ward: Jesmyn Ward is an absolutely incredible talent. She takes my breath away. I am not quite sure what to recommend first, but I started with Men We Reaped and I was never sorry to have done so. 

To wrap things up, let me suggest that you not give short shrift to the “genre” writers who get less space in the front of the bookstore or in the reviews, but give us so much joy. In those books, too, it’s easy enough to support women. A couple of new and old favorites:

1. KJ Charles: historical British gay romance. So easy to read, so well-written, so well-plotted. Binge reading at its best.

2. Margaret Atwood: Give her a Pulitzer Prize–I think we should–but Margaret Atwood IS genre fiction. She’s also bloody brilliant. If you haven’t read the Oryx & Crake trilogy, you’re doing yourself a major disservice. 

3. Marge Piercy: Remember up there where I said Mary Shelley invited sci-fi? Well, Marge Piercy invented cyberpunk with Woman on the Edge of Time, which you should read. Both her dystopian sci-fi writing and her historical fiction is brilliant, woman-focused stuff.

4. J.K. Rowling: For God’s sake. Really. Do I need to even say why?

5. Suzanne Collins: So, I know everybody loves Harry Potter, and I understand why. But, for me? The Hunger Games trilogy was some pretty amazing dystopian writing, and actually holds up to scrutiny better than HP. I don’t read a lot of YA fiction, but I’m still thinking about those books years later.

I could, of course, go on and on. But this is as good a place as any to stop. Read a woman’s book today! Buy one for someone else! Support female authors! And to hell with Junot Diaz. 

[punch-your-buns-deactivated2021]

Tana French is a mystery/crime fiction novelist, I really like her work!

Also - Sandra Newman (wrote an entire heroine quest dystopia novel in pidgin English), Anna north (don’t really know how to categorize her but I really like the life and death of Sophie stark as a fiction novel), Roxane Gay (feminist fiction and nonfiction but not theory), Kathryn Miller Haynes (cheesy mystery) and Jessica knoll (fiction)

I’m an avid reader so I’m happy to give out recommendations if anyone wants 😊

[artfoli]

hey, I'm interested in learning about art and art history but I have no idea where to start!!! Like I barely know ANYTHING about art at all. are there any good intro books you would recommend?? :)) Ty!!

Hello! I think a great starting point is Methods and Theories of Art History, by Anne D'Alleva. It has little exercises in it, and it gives you topics prominently explored in art history that can be super helpful when analyzing artworks and placing things within context, without being overwhelming.

I was going to recommend taking a trip to the library or second-hand book shop and going nuts, but it’s maybe not the best time for it.

Hopefully my followers can recommend good books to start with!

Although not books, other resources like Khan Academy and The Art Assignment (on youtube) are also really good. Khan Academy is good at keeping you motivated because of showing your progress, and The Art Assignment is just really fun!

When I started off learning myself, I went down a lot of wikipedia rabbit holes until I found topics that I wanted to delve further into. That will help you narrow down books later on as well :)

[aireandsugar]

Choose any museum website and look through a collection. Anything that interests you or speaks to you - go learn more about it (many museums have extensive online “exhibits” since COVID.)

If you can find out the style or time period of a work that you like, you can search for more - for example, if you see a Monet, learn about the other Impressionists. Then branch out from there - what came before Impressionism? What came after it? How was it different in different areas (if the style is found in different locations.) What was going on in the world at that time? How is that shown by what artists were producing? Who was buying or sponsoring art in that time? How does the work reflect that?

I think following your own interests, at least in the beginning, will make the whole world of art history (as expansive a subject as world history) more approachable.

I also suggest people start with art they recognize - did you see Girl with a Pearl Earring? Then learn about Vermeer and his contemporaries. Did you like the Doctor Who episode with Van Gogh? Then start there. Fine art is frequently more present in our daily lives than we realize, so that can be another way to approach it. If you’ve always liked “Starry Night”, find out where it fits in Van Gogh’s entire body of work. If you think “The Persistence of Memory” is fascinating, learn about Dali and Surrealism.

Ever notice the paintings of bowler hats/bowler hat wearing men with obscured faces? (In the background of Good Eats episodes and the Taskmaster house, for example?) Riffs off Rene Magritte’s “The Son of Man”.... his body of work could keep you busy for a while.

If you see an exhibit or website with a modern artist, read their artist statement. Many will refer to the works that inspire and influence them. (It’s easy to forget that art history is still being made!) You can learn more but in a way that relates what you’re learning to something you can experience in person.

Just being curious about art, and following your curiosity, is a great start!

I know that learning Sanskrit is not a huge thing. The last time I learnt Sanskrit was in school and titbits from a great grandfather who tried his best to teach my rebellious teen brain. I regret not making the best use - Don’t mistake me, I did learn things but not whole heartedly. Now that I’m trying to self-learn Sanskrit or Saṃskṛta as it is really called, above are resources that I’m using and hoping that can help out others.

How to Really Comprehend a Scientific Paper

**credit to my research advisor, she’s an amazing mentor and I aspire to be just like her someday :)

Read the abstract. Write down what the paper says it is going to be about.

Read the introduction. Write down what the paper says it is looking to accomplish and how.

Read the conclusion. Write down what the paper actually did accomplish.

Go through and find all the pictures, graphs, or diagrams. Write notes explaining these images to yourself.

Read the whole paper start to finish. Write a summary of the paper as though you are explaining it to a layperson, and then another summary as though you are explaining it to a colleague.

Throughout all of the above steps:

If there are words you don’t know google them and write down the definitions

If the paper defines a formula, law, variable, etc in a certain way write that down

If there are references to or recommendations of other literature write those down. After the last step if there’s anything you’re uncertain about or would like more information on look to that list for further reading

I LOVE Excel! I took an Excel class during University and I’ve never stopped using or learning about it since. During my summer internship, I would literally use Excel functions and macros for hours every single day. Even if you don’t want to be an Excel fanatic, learning a few basic functions will make your life easier (and even impress a few managers along the way!).

I’ve outlined below some of the most useful Excel functions to learn. Some of these functions are very basic but can make a huge difference. These functions save time, automate procedures, and make your life easier! And if you need some help on how to learn them, I’ve listed some helpful resources to get you started. With all of us social distancing at home, now is as good of a time as any to add a skill to your resume. 

Excel Functions to Know:

SUM: returns sum of cells selected

SUMPRODUCT: multiplies ranges or arrays together and returns the sum of product

IF: return one value for a TRUE result and another for a FALSE result

SUMIF: returns the sum of cells if the cell meets a single condition

AVERAGEIF: computes the average of the numbers in a range that meets a certain criteria

VLOOKUP: lookup and retrieve data from a specific column in a table can be exact or approximate match

LEFT: returns a given number of characters from the left side of text string

RIGHT: returns a given number of characters from the right side of text string

CONCATENATE: joins the text of cells together and returns the joined text in one cell

LENGTH: returns the given number of characters in a text

Resources:

Excel Jet: Very useful as a type of Excel dictionary to look up syntax and specific formulas you don’t know

Excel Easy: almost like on online textbook for Excel (great resource for those who have no knowledge of Excel at all!)

Udemy: paid excel course with lots of videos, assignments, and downloadable resources

Coursera: self-paced learning option, quizzes and assignments, and a course certificate

Excel Youtube Course by Technology for Teachers and Students

Prologue to my Excel series

I’ll also be posting Excel tips, tricks, function explanations, and some basic Excel tutorials so if you’d like to see more appear on your dash in the future, follow my blog and look for my Excel series.
