remaking!
i totally forgot the login details for both this blog AND the email account it’s linked to. so, once more, i remake myself in my own image.
if you like my stuff, come visit my new blog over at plebeian2logist for more of the same.
with this post, the queue has run dry, and this blog is done. thank you so much to everyone who has followed me; it’s been a ride.
this blog will remain open as an archive as long as tumblr’s servers will continue to host it. if you want to, please come follow me on twitter @jaypg9, or on tumblr @plebeian2logist (url subject to change.)
take care out there, stranger. i’ll see you down the road.
“Alice asked the Cheshire Cat, who was sitting in a tree, “What road do I take?” The cat asked, “Where do you want to go?” “I don’t know,” Alice answered. “Then,” said the cat, “it really doesn’t matter, does it?” Illustration challenge cat+desert+brown
an educational graphic about critical thinking for tumnblr
The all important journalist questions, and then some.
A missing line from Why:
“If you really want to be a critical reader, it turns out you have to step back one step further, and ask not just whether the author is telling the truth, but why he’s writing about this subject at all.“
That is an excellent addition.
One other one for How: “how could this be exploited by someone acting in bad faith?” Closely coupled with a What: “what are the limits on the ill-effects this could produce?”
And a quick check for double standards: “who, or what, is the speaker not applying this principle to?”
(This is also a great guide for interrogating historical documents such as, say, a constitution, a press release, a speech, a letter, a diary, a bill of rights, political policies, &c)
I need to grab this and adapt this for my little filmmaking courses.
Because these questions are equally indispensible when YOU are the author of the script, the book, the story, the speech.
A list of supernatural beings in the British Isles, from the Denham Tracts, 1892-5 (pictured). ~from The Penguin Book of English Folktales, Neil Philip, 1992
The author notes that this is where Tolkien found the creature name: Hobbits. I also see Fire Drakes. And I’d add that since this was published, there are at least two recognizable creature/character names J.K. Rowling may have gotten from it.
everybody know im a mothafuckin monster
Does anyone have that pic of the three cats lined up and the black one has a really stupid look on its face
You mean this one???
Yes thank you
This is my favorite picture
““I do not particularly like the word ‘work.’ Human beings are the only animals who have to work, and I think that is the most ridiculous thing in the world. Other animals make their livings by living, but people work like crazy, thinking that they have to in order to stay alive. The bigger the job, the greater the challenge, the more wonderful they think it is. It would be good to give up that way of thinking and live an easy, comfortable life with plenty of free time. I think that the way animals live in the tropics, stepping outside in the morning and evening to see if there is something to eat, and taking a long nap in the afternoon, must be a wonderful life. For human beings, a life of such simplicity would be possible if one worked to produce directly his daily necessities. In such a life, work is not work as people generally think of it, but simply doing what needs to be done.””
