I've got like four or five things that I actually like, and I just stick to those.

Been pretty artblocked due to stress lately but I'm slowly getting back into it. Decided to paint something fun and whimsical to take my mind of things.

you love this world/you're willing to die protecting it
sometimes i randomly remember how insane maggie stiefvater was for making ronan lynch—a man that can create reality—a man of god, when he himself is a god of a man. then to take this man and have him be not only in love with, but a literal soulmate of a man named adam. parrish. adam parrish. who, mind you, lives above ronan's very own place of worship. and is the namesake of the first of mankind that the bible says god made from the literal dust of the ground (adam parrish: comes from nothing, hair "dusty" in color) and appoints him to care for the garden of eden (adam parrish: sacrifices himself to ronan's sentient forest). then has adam viewing ronan as a god and ronan saying "maybe he dreamt (created)" adam???? like who just fucking writes that and goes about their life?
We need to bring back children’s programming that focuses on reading. I’m so serious
WE NEED THEM BACK ‼️‼️‼️
fun fact there's a political reason for less learning shows--the push for advertising in children's entertainment and deregulation surrounding it
Do you have any idea the absoltue fit the right would throw if these shows existed today?
"They're indoctrinating our kids with woke shit like kindness and self-esteem!"
reading rainbow and wishbone were 2 of my favorite shows as a kid. they're definitely some part of why i love reading and books as much as i do.
Good trope: Character yelling, "It's not what it looks like!" while doing exactly what it looks like.
Great trope: Character yelling, "It's not what it looks like!" while doing something so unfathomable that the person who interrupted them can't even begin to attempt to figure out what the hell it is they're seeing.
if you ask me, the guy who put the sword INTO the stone should be king, not the chucklefuck who got it out.
I assume the guy who put the "sword that makes you the king" into the stone, doesn't really want the position
i think the stone should be king since it held the sword the longest

poet as giver. poet as dichotomy. poet as perennial mess. poet as burned-at-own-stake. poet as canvas and brush. poet as borderland.
Remember when I told you that the universe is gonna send a special person your way? Here she is!
i love filtering tags like. no. i do not want to see it. goodbye.
and then it is gone forever except for the fact that I am now presented with the most enticing button in the world
Oh damn the Catholics have joined in on the war against AI "art".
do you have any ideas about why so many students are struggling with literacy now? I know that illiteracy and reading comprehension have been issues for years and most americans read at like a 5th grade reading level but I’m curious why it seems to be worse now (pandemic? no child left behind?)
It is everything. There’s not one answer. I could talk about this forever so instead I set a five minute timer on my phone and wrote a list of as many of the many things that are causing this on a systemic level that I could think of:
It’s parents not reading with their kids (a privilege, but some parents have that privilege to be able to do this and don’t.)
It’s youtube from birth and never being bored.
It’s phasing out phonics for sight words (memorizing without understanding sounds or meaning) in elementary schools in the early aughts.
It’s defunding public libraries that do all the community and youth outreach.
It’s NCLB and mandating standardized tests which center reading short passages as opposed to longform texts so students don’t build up the endurance or comprehension skills.
It’s NCLB preventing schools from holding students back if they lack the literacy skills to move onto the next grade because they can’t be left behind so they’re passed on.
It’s the chronic underfunding of ESL and Special Ed programs for students who need extra literacy support.
It’s the cultural devaluing of the humanities in favor of stem and business because those make more money which leads to a lot of students to completely disregard reading and writing.
It’s the learning loss from covid.
It’s covid trauma manifesting in a lot of students as learned helplessness, or an inability to “figure things out” or push through adversity to complete challenging tasks independently, especially reading difficult texts.
It’s covid normalizing cheating and copying.
It’s increasing phone use.
It’s damage to attention span exacerbated by increased phone use that leaves you without an ability to sit and be bored ever without 2-3 forms of constant stimulation.
It’s shortform video becoming the predominant form of social media content as opposed to anything text-based.
It’s starting to also be generative AI.
It’s the book bans.
what did I miss.
Cannot believe I forgot to also blame charter schools, voucher programs, and the conservative push to lower the teenage working age and get poor kids tracked out of college prep and into vocational training for this. i have let everyone down
