Let’s reblog this until everybody sees it

[mamoru]

good homeopathy: i use lavender because it smells nice and helps me sleep

bad homeopathy: i use lavender and it smells so nice that i stop getting vaccinated

[quite-quirksome]

good homeopathy: increasing fruit and green leafy vegetables in my child’s diet might help them beat leukemia

bad homeopathy: chemotherapy drugs are full of toxic chemicals so I’m gonna cleanse my child with this tea for 2 weeks

[explanatorypower-deactivated201]

Yall sound like elitist assholes who spend more time judging people they dont know than they do researching substances

I am terminally ill and venting about salespeople that try to scam me and my friends at medical conventions but go off I guess

a child with an undiagnosed mental illness: I think I need help. I struggle with things nobody else seems to be struggling with.

a parent who never got diagnosed for the exact same mental illness: Oh sweetie. EVERYONE struggles with that :)

The best line in Lilo and Stitch is, “No! Don’t touch that! It’s from my blue period!”

Like not only is Lilo familiar with goddamn Picasso despite being maybe 8, but she’s made enough serious art of her own that she can divide it into similar periods.

Lilo is a goddamn prodigy. She is an eccentric genius on par with Tesla or Van Gogh.

Like those pictures she took were both dismissals of beauty standards (she mostly photographed fat people who were not conventionally attractive and she referred to them in awe as beautiful) and subversions of the dehumanization tourists subjected her to as a native Hawaiian (she photographed tourists like they were simply part of the landscape, just as they did to her).

This little girl understands art better than me.

bad take

[homestuck]

so https://io9.gizmodo.com/the-adventure-zone-comic-publishers-come-under-fire-for-1844908912 some people came forward about their terrible contract conditions and the mcelroys – like they usally do almost every time this happens – immediately came forward and worked to make it right

randos invading my twitter via the likes of people I think should know better are publishing weirdly hostile takes that would be deserved by much shittier people and not really these three dudes that are absolutely not millionaires being bad at business

this isn’t gonna be one or more of them being actively malicious or fucking around, it’s gonna be one of them going “hey are we fairly treating our contributors“ and the publisher says “yeah it’s taken care of” and, unfortunately, they’ll have believed it

[homestuck]

[homestuck]

[bananonbinary]

this is such an odd take because like. what are these people hoping to achieve, other than moral superiority? whether the mcelroys are perfect kind boys or not is irrelevant, the issue was brought to light, and steps are being taken to correct it. i don’t care what that says about who they are as private people, i care that everything i’d want to happen in this situation is happening. action matters, and action is being taken. literally what else could you ask for here.

Universal basic income is essential if we want to build a bright future in the age of automation.

Seriously. The 40-hour work week was codified in 1940, before computers did anything. Per-hour productivity has more than quadrupled since then, but we’re working even harder, to live not all that much better. It’s absurd.

No, it’s not absurd, it’s deliberate. The ruling class wants us to work as hard as possible, so they have profits to skim and pile up.

Just a little reminder that the US Military is the world’s biggest polluter.  The fight against ecological disaster must include fighting the war machine!

Study tip for if time boundaries freak u out

You know how study tips are always like “set a timer!”, well… knowing I only have a certain amount of time freaks out Professor Jiggly, the cat who drives my brain. So I have never been able to do that

But keeping track of time is useful

So here’s my solution: instead of setting a timer to count down, set a stopwatch to count up. You can have an approximate target amount to work before taking a break, but the timer won’t interrupt you if you’re focused and you won’t be distracted by the thought that you only have 20 mins or whatever

You just look at the clock when you feel like taking a break and it will maybe say “that was five minutes” at which point you can go argh! I will force myself to keep working! Or it will maybe say “that was 25 minutes” and you can be like “I am a powerhouse”

Also if you have the stopwatch on your phone, it discourages using your phone

I have NEVER BEEN ABLE TO USE TIMERS but I discovered this trick recently and it helps …… a lot

[thesubcon10ent]

Bruh religious or not there’s no debating that Dreamworks Prince of Egypt (1998) is a masterpiece and one of the most visually stunning works of animation of all time. The parallels between Yocheved and Miriam singing the River Lullaby as a tear runs down their cheek and the wind blows their hair in front of their face? Incredible. The use of hieroglyphics to show how Moses learned that his father ordered the Hebrew babies slaughtered??Ingenious. The duet between Moses and Ramses where the choir chants in the background while you watch the plagues destroy Egypt and Moses is begging Ramses to let his people go and Ramses refuses and it shows them facing each other and then side by side and then Ramses walking away while Moses stands firmly??? Intense. When Moses parts the sea and the Hebrews are walking between the water and lightning strikes in the background, illuminating the silhouette of a giant shark swimming in the wall of water???? Iconic. The entire movie is just absolutely breathtaking and that’s just tea

So, I’ve decided to make a Project Planner Printable! (Available in A4 and Letter-size!)

This is kind of just a helpful sheet to get all of your project’s most important information all in one place! It’s useful to refer to for quick questions and, with the different sections, it can help keep track of things that you may need to include in your process book (such as how many phases were in the project according to the schedule, what was due for those phases, and your briefs).

I’ve also put some color to it, but there is also a blank version available for you to decorate yourself!

Google Drive folder for the files

Please reblog if you use them and let me know what you think!

Mentioned or tag me if you take a photo with it written on or used in any studyspo pictures! I will gladly reblog if I see you using my printable, of course.

If you’d like any changes to the printable, send an ask!

Hope you find this useful!
