for the record you can now also buy my utena piece as well!!!

tbh i also am not totally convinced the difficulty synthesizing college reading arguments that its entirely some kind of failed cognitive process of being unable to read cuz like one lets be sooo serious right now academic reading is far more based on skillful skimming than deep reading and that is a specific skill people need to learn and also if you have no background or exposure to such topics its really hard to make heads or tails of something like i struggled mightily in my first medieval history class cuz i had so little background in it and the early readings made my head swim cuz i had no easy like in to figure out what they were talking about but the more i learned about the subject the readings in fact became easier and i could take more information from them and faster which you know when ur taking in more students from a wider array of backgrounds people will be coming in with really different baseline knowledge to even know what the hell to do with this information let alone if the class feels valuable to them

its just such a funny tone always from professors at elite selective universities being like o h my god we are accepting students who cant do this work why are we admitting idiots and like the worst of it for them is this is devaluing their fancy school i bet they would be shocked and aghast at how high school drop outs at my functionally open admission shitty nothing public uni are happily tackling 60 page reading loads..

something that i find fascinating from the university professor lead panic about poor literacy in college students in the US is that in some ways they are kind of showing their hand that the past 15 years have been the peak of like percentage of graduating high schoolers attending university and that college education has become almost as necessary and expected as high school that in some ways u must wonder if truly this halcyon past they are yearning for is the far more elitist university that simply does not have space for most people or to confront that university courses are simply not designed for most people and are intentionally for weeding out those they dont believe should succeed and their annoyance is that people traditionally barred from entrance to their spaces are now here

i mean saints like famously disagree with people to the point of never letting it go like i mean they were literally dying to win arguments good news most saints love telling people they are living wrong and should change and what to do or whatever bad news... theyre catholic

why do so many services rely exclusively on phone calls and then dont answer their damn phones like i missed one phone call a week ago and have been fruitlessly trying to get in touch ever since

xena episode lineups are always like horrific betrayal of how xena hid her torching an entire village from gabrielle and abandoned her to try and kill herself and then the next episode is like aphrodite turns everyone into horses by accident!

they should invent necks that dont hurt and sleeping positions that heal

xenas actually the perfect thing to be a weird insane obsessive nerd about cuz u can be like #different or whatever and not just be like following everyone elses lead or in some really weird and elitist or crazy nerd guy space of like all the normal shit like star trek and also nobody fucking watches it anymore so you know but anyways unlike other really niche weird shit to be into xena used to have a crazy obsessive fandom so you can find like old html websites from 1999 that cataloged every single interview ever conducted by someone who worked for xena thats still up on internet archive so its like u can just peacefully dig endlessly thru miles of weird old material to do all ur weird freaky nerd research but it feels special cuz it really is just you left anymore

really unforeseen consequence of trying to wean my father off like increasingly bad stargate spin offs because hes reached the bottom of the barrel of franchise sci fi tv garbage to watch and trying to get him into the x files but then this immediately turns into him openly admitting to at least being open to believing weird alien conspiracy theories to the point we are functionally doing a mulder and scully bit truly did not contemplate this and i think i need to figure out some way to undo this

skipping out on fun stuff right now doesnt really seem like much of a loss cuz honestly im barely forming memories right now so it kind of feels like half an experience

you have only ever made good posts

thank u i try

it is really funny kevin sorbo is such a bad actor and horrible miserable person that xena fandom just totally reversed normal fandom misogyny and everyone acted like he was the boring lame interloper nobody liked in a franchise he started and were like ok shut up and go away so the women can talk

people are always horribly mischaracterizing evil lesbians as controlling doms and never understanding her deranged masochistic relationship to the hero and how bad she wants to be killed by her (functionally sex for them)

i love my cat so much but waking me up at 4am cuz she cant stop running up and down the stairs in excitement after ive barely gotten a good nights sleep in the past three weeks is testing me

can i stop scraping chunks of skin off my hand in stupid random accidents so i can like put lotion on my hands again this is getting so fucking dumb

my xena doodles from class :3c
