hand holding trios @r1ku - Tumblr Blog

💜Update Plans💜

Taking a page from @housewifefemme

Hello! It's been a while, I'm mostly playing Genshin Impact, Obey Me SWD and on Twitter, but I KNOW some artists are tumblr only and I want to see those arts too. I'm trying to get back here more often.

I've changed my mind and soon I'll edit my descriptions on all my blogs. But for now, I'm coming back to posting everything on main.

You see, I've making r1ku into a fandom only + personal interests blog, like kingdom hearts and some manga and anime and bunnies.

And my sideblog pink4walls into the aesthetic and ideas and inspo blog; with scenery, greenery, fashion, food, architecture etc.

But now I have decided to split it more and put back the scenery, fashion, advice, and meta to r1ku and make pink4walls purely into, creative tips, art refs and art tips only.

But whatever I already reblogged just stays, I'll try to tag everything eventually. So, now I'm actively trying to rush myself to push out more reblogs and have 0 drafts in both blogs. Hopefully this splitting will make everything faster.

And I can finally just scroll here and be up to date with current events, and find blogs of my newer interests.

↓ A Question I think some people will have ↓

WHY AM I SEEING AN OLD REBLOG? DID YOU DIG THRU MY BLOG?

When I wanted a fresh start because I had a lot of friendships falling out and I didn't like knowing an old friend blocked me. I remade a new account, and I blocked them, so they dont know me and idk them either now, as it's in the hundreds of blocked accounts lmao.

I made a sideblog and put a lot of posts I wanted to reblog but didn't want to use that account to reblog for, into the sideblogs' drafts. It accumulated into around 29k posts.

I then had a friend become an admin on the sideblog and gave her the sideblog to hold onto and removed myself from the sideblog. I remade into r1ku, and I became an admin on that sideblog and she removed ownership and gave it back to me. So I have my sideblog of drafted reblogs as pink4walls.

And that's where we are now, I have been trying to queue 30 posts a day for both blogs and queue up to 150 posts on both blogs. But the consistency and dedication was hard for me to keep up with, so I'd be gone from tumblr months a time due to procrastination.

But slowly and surely I try to distribute and i whittled down the 29k to 24k as we can see here.

So it's progress guys. But there's a lot of old shit in there. So I apologize if you, the reader who wonders why their old post was reblogged, sees it, it's because it was in my drafts.

Thank you for reading!

Tl;dr

Your post was in my drafts, and Im reblogging as much as I can to get rid of it from my drafts and bring drafts to 0.

Do you have any tips on doing accurate research for people without access to formal education

Sure! This can't be one size fits all for every field, but I can give some starting points for history.

If you're reading a book, here's what to consider:

1. Are there footnotes or endnotes? In academia this is our way of being transparent with each other about where you got information. If a book doesn't have them, they're more interested in telling a good story than being accountable to their peers. That's a red flag.

2. Don't trust claims that seem very specific but don't have a source. Broad claims can be the author's analysis. But specific things "so and so said this" "there was a rumor that (x)" should be coming from somewhere and it is the author's job to tell you where.

3. Look out for choppy quoting. Even if someone has a source, they may not be using it well. If someone is paraphrasing a lot and only uses bits and pieces of the text while also using a lot of ellipses, you will want to try to find the whole text to make sure it's being quoted fairly.

4. Look at the publication date. Knowledge changes with time and old books tend to be outdated. You don't have to stick to the academic rule of thumb of "25 years is the threshold for new scholarship" but do be aware that if something is over 50 years old, many many people have likely revisited and revised what it's saying. Not that new books can't also be bad and incorrect, but they tend to be working with better tools generally.

5. Look up the author. I cannot stress this one enough. The author's background and political convictions can matter a lot to how they interpret things. For example, one of the biographies people tend to pick up about my dissertation topic is from the late 1920s by a man who later applied to join the NSDAP. That fact really can't be separated from his interpretations no matter how hard people try.

6. Stop reading if someone is making a lot of moral or personal judgements on a historical figure. I'm talking about the "Elizabeth I was a frigid hag and men found her ugly"-esque takes, not things like calling historical atrocities morally bad. Does it feel like bitchy gossip? That sort of thing is unprofessional, uninformative, and means someone has an axe to grind. Spite can be motivation for research, but axe grinding shouldn't show up clearly in published work.

These are things to keep in mind to make sure you're getting better information. Others are free to add on for their field or if there's something I forgot.

One very important thing to add: professors and academics like people emailing them about their research. You can do that! You can ask for copies of pay walled articles. You just have to go through the mortifying ordeal of expressing interest in an email.

I put together a little guide on how to find and access the latest scholarly work in your field of interest – the focus is on history but the principles are widely applicable. Might be of help!

felicia telling irving the only time she ever saw burt scared was when he spent two hours fixing his hair before going to see him,,,,,, irving drawing burt over and over between the times he could see him,,,,,, felicia hugging irving the second she saw him, having lunch with him and telling him stories,,,,,,, irving's getting the "widow that's still loved by the family" treatment by o&d as he rightfully deserved

thinking about how I hope in the end that Severance is a treatise on grief and how you cannot run from it, you cannot bury it, you cannot hide from it, you can only in the end accept it.

It's been two years since Gemma "died," and Mark has tried everything but accepting her loss.

Alcoholism? Check. Getting severed to avoid choking on her ghost? Check. Moving to a new house and keeping her memories boxed in the basement? Check. Not even bothering to unpack her ashes and put her in an urn or a cemetery? Check. "She's not dead, she's just not here."

He shoves her in a box in the basement surrounded by boxes of her hobbies. He tears up her photo in little pieces and tapes it back together with whiskey on his breath. He cries in the car before work until snot runs down his face. He spits on other people's grief and wields his own like a weapon, pretending that he isn't bleeding.

It's a core part of him. It's always been there. Maybe it goes far back, to Fern Scout who's been dead so long Mark can't remember the color of her eyes. It's there in Mark S too, ripping up Petey's photo and his map with grim denial. "Irving isn't dead, he's just not here."

Mark can't bear grief in any form. So when scraps of puzzle pieces scream that she's alive, he runs into the maelstrom of reintegration without thought, without care, without telling Devon, self-destructive to the core. Because if he could kill the grief, that monster stalking him in the dark or at the bottom of a bottle, then maybe he'd finally be okay.

But I don't think we'll ever get to see the Gemma he once knew. I think she's lost, a ghost stalking Lumon's halls, never to escape. Or maybe she does escape -- but only as Ms. Casey, someone who never loved him, a different person altogether.

And maybe Severance will say, you have to accept this, or you'll die. Grief isn't an enemy. It's a part of you, like your innie, like your outie. It breaks you apart.

And you can put yourself back together again, if you only face it.

YEAH @hackfixation say it louder for the people in the back! Beautiful points about how Dylan and Irving can start to heal because they reached out instead of hunkering down, how they talked about the person they loved, how Dylan called for a funeral and Irving shared his drawings of Burt with Felicia. The grief hurts but it’s only by facing it that you can survive it!
