studyblr (re)introduction !

hello all ! it’s been a little while since i started this blog, and wanted to reintroduce myself to all you lovely folks — 

— my name is lily, i am twenty-three years old, i go by she/her, and i lived in england for eight years where i did my gcses and a-levels, but i am back in the states to go to college ! 

— ( for my gcses i studied art, english literature and language, french, italian, sciences, math, and history ; and at a levels i studied art, french, english literature, and photography )

— i am an illustration student attending rhode island school of design, and i will be in the class of 2025 due to having taken a gap year and then deferring during the pandemic.

— apart from illustration, my interests include reading (both novels and graphic novels), writing, art history, classics/mythology, caffeine, being a plant mom, movies, and annoying my two cats. 

— some of my favorite reads include ‘six of crows’ by leigh bardugo, ‘if we were villains’ by m.l. rio, ‘the secret history’ by donna tartt, ‘ninth house’ by leigh bardugo, ‘the atlas six’ by olivie blake, and ‘circe’ by madeline miller. 

— ( if you are interested in literature i would love if you would follow my litblr sideblog, @darlingtonstern​ ! )

— i am not wonderful at remembering to keep a tagging system on this blog, which i apologize for, but you can generally always find my original posts at /tagged/mine !

— this account is actually also a sideblog, so any likes/follows/asks will come from my main account, @diansaprince​​ !

— and that’s about it ! i love being part of this tumblr community, and also just wanted to say feel free to tag me in things or message me as i love getting in touch with you all !

My study sessions of late are more reading for fun and less reading for study than I’d like to admit but the cozy season is here

Hello, 🌹♥️

I apologize for reaching out unexpectedly, but I am forced to contact you due to an urgent situation.

My name is Mohammed, and I’m an engineer - (Mobile Developer - Flutter ) . I want to assure you that I wouldn't want to bother you under normal circumstances. However, I am in desperate need right now. I have a beautiful family, and I am doing everything I can to save them from the horrors of the war in Gaza. I reached out to you because I believe you are a kind and compassionate person, and I hope that if you can share our story, you won’t hesitate to do so.

I’m not experienced with Tumblr, and I only came here to try to reach good people like you who can help amplify my family’s voice, hoping we might find someone who can help save them.

If you could reblog the pinned post on my account, I would be incredibly grateful. And if you are willing to contribute even more, you could also share our story on any other platforms where you have access. With your help, we might be able to save them.

If you have friends or know of large blogs on Tumblr, please don’t hesitate to ask them to reblog my post as well.

Plz can you Reblog my 📌 pinned post📍 on my account 😔 😞 🌺 🌹

Again, I apologize for the inconvenience, and I sincerely hope that reaching out to you will be fruitful in my desperate attempt to save my children from the war.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart ♥️

17 free and helpful things, that everyone can take advantage of

Dolly Parton's Imagination Library They send an age appropriate book once a month if you have a child younger than 5.

Project Gutenberg Lots of free classic books.

Library Genesis A great place to look for and download college/university textbooks for free, as well as other books.

Scihub Endless Free college books. (and peer-reviewed scientific publications that are otherwise hidden behind a paywall)

Khan Academy Free knowledge that you can use to clep out of university courses, or to simply invest your time in a worthwhile topic.

Openlearn UK’s Open University - free courses for all levels of study, samples of university materials, study skills and tie-ins to BBC documentaries. Everything under Creative Commons licence so you can use it as you see fit.

Duolingo The Green Owl of Languages. There are a few hundred that it teaches and the mobile app makes it easy to do anywhere while waiting (!warning! only good for Spanish, German, French, Dutch, Esperanto, and English. with anything else it gets very low-quality and short.).

Codecademy An awesome site to learn how to use some programming languages. Doesn't get into the really advanced stuff, but it's good for a start.

Photopea Completely free Photoshop clone that has all the basic features of Photoshop, using basically the same interface.

Gimp Another free version of Photoshop.

Unsplash Stock of free photos of just about anything, provided by the photographers themselves, to do with what you like.

Futureme You can write letters to yourself (or other people) in the future! You can also make notifications and reminders of a +doctors appointments or anything else important.

Heavens Above You can look up all the satellites flying over your house tonight, including the ISS, Hubble Space Telescope, those pesky Starlink satellites, and whatever else your heart desires, complete with star maps and precise timing. And there is an Android app, but unfortunately no iOS one last I checked. (For iOS you can use “Sputnik!” which is free and tells, when ISS and Hubble passes overhead.)

Night Sky Other astronomy app for iOS. If you hold your phone to the sky the app tells you what you're looking at (or point it at the ground for a view from the other side of the planet). Zoom in with two fingers and tons of deep space stuff is revealed.

Freecycle its literally people giving away stuff they don't need/want any more that they can't/don't care enough to sell.

Nexus Mods Has thousands of video game mods (for 1,509 PC games), made by independent content creators, available to download at no cost.

Archive The Archive aka Internet Archive is a non-profit library of millions of free books, movies, software, music, websites, and so much more... For example a lot of DOS games (classics like Prince of Persia, Oregon Trail, DOOM, Monkey island, Rayman, Turtles), directly playable through the browser.
