i will never be against piracy ever but i also need physical media to remain

[robotpussy]

the average blockbuster carried about 3x as many films than that that are streaming on Netflix or any other streaming service, physical media along with piracy is more important than ever.

I thought this wasn’t true, because how could it be true? How could one small store have more movies than an online database? So I googled it.

I am surprised and depressed to learn it’s 100% true, according to google. A Blockbuster store was required to have a minimum of 7000 titles, but most averaged about 10,000. Netflix has 4000 movies. (And 1800 tv shows if you want to count those, but even included, it’s still less)

Now I’m even more depressed about the collapse of physical rental stores.

BONUS: They weren't beholden to Who Owns What IP Right Now. They got videos from everyone. You didn't have to pay separately for the rights to rent from the Disney Shelves and the WB Shelves and bler bler bler, and they only STOPPED having those movies when the tapes broke or someone never returned 'em.

friendly reminder that your local library will have lots of physical media and if they don't have what you're looking for you can most likely ask them to purchase it or order it from another library through interlibrary loan

Shoutout to Scarecrow Video- they have over 148,000 titles, most of which you can rent by mail. Rentals have been down in the last few years so they're asking for support!

boosting this for Scarecrow Video. It's also now a non-profit.

Back to taking notes. I had to quit my job yesterday because of my stupid ADHD. There was just too much to learn and I couldn't keep up. I just can't remember what people try to teach me. My mental health went down the drain. I couldn't do it anymore. Now I'm lost. On the bright side, the weather has been really nice and I saw some cute ducks, so there's that...

Yesterday was a slower day, but necessary. Today, I'll find a rhythm that works without overdoing it.

Log: 12.3.25

Research work 2P

Write journal entry (even if short)

Read for fun (at least 20 minutes)

Hydrate + rest (non-negotiable)

Light movement (stroll or yoga, depending on energy)

Eat something nourishing

Call home (even a short chat)

Brain dump for clarity (clear out mental clutter)

Back to work today after getting home and having a chilled weekend seeing family & listening to lots of records! I got my copy of Steven Wilson’s new album, The Overview, in the post and it’s a beautifully packaged record as well as being a phenomenal album. I’m starting off easy today with my lecture reviews from Friday & then planning my revision for the rest of Easter…

🎵2112 Album – Rush

@onigiri-studies officially turned one year old yesterday! 🥳🎉 Slowly trying to ease myself back into studying.

What i did today:

- ösd B1 test (Leseverstehen und Sprachbausteine-i'm happy to say that I only made one mistake)

- started to journal (it's very fun tbh, especially since I have a pocket printer and can make my own stickers or print templates if i want to)

[lizziestudieshistory]

28.12.2022 - I've been attempting to finish a couple of books before the end of the year and updating my journals. I should probably be working on my essay but I'm so tired that I can't face it until term starts again.

Currently reading: Ivanhoe by Sir Walter Scott; Rhythm of War by Brandon Sanderson; The Red and the Black by Stendhal

Study session 📖📑 and trip to Sweden 🇸🇪

[academic-vampire]

As I am organizing and writing my thesis, I thought I would share the template I usually follow in order to make my academic writing experience more bearable. I made this myself, learning what worked best for me through (much) trial and error.

I know writing a big paper can feel extremely daunting, but this may be able to help you relax a bit. Once you “fill out” this “template” with all of the information it requires, you’ll realize that all you have to do is write a few paragraphs, weave in some quotes, and you’re good to go! I hope this may be of some benefit to any of you. Good luck with the rest of your semester, darlings! I’m wishing you tons of luck. xx -Jack

How I Organize my Research Papers Before I Write Them:

• Formatting: Headings, pagination, and a (creative) title.

• Thesis: I try to write out a thesis (just one sentence) so I have some foundation to build upon. Usually my theses change or develop as I write—sometimes I change the thesis entirely. Either way, it’s good to at least have some semblance of what you want to write about at the start.

• Organization Outline: I plot out the main topic of each paragraph that way I stay focused while I write. Also that way I can arrange the paragraphs in an order that works most efficiently before I even write the paper. This saves me time instead of trying to blend paragraph topics together in an unnatural way; or not having any idea what some paragraphs should talk about. Here is usually a great place to think up topic sentences you can use later, too!

• Prompt: here is where I type out my prompt for my paper, either given by my professor or one I came up with on my own. I like to keep my prompt closer to the top so I can refer to it throughout my writing to make sure I’m still on the same track.

• Brainstorming: underneath my prompt, I write my initial thoughts—am I arguing? Am I analyzing? What do I want to research? What would make a good idea to focus on? Things like that.

• Research/Academia: After I search through academic and peer reviewed journals, I paste their citation references in this section. That way I can make sure I have enough research (if there is a required minimum), and I can divide my research into categories that I want to address in my paper (so it doesn’t feel too heavy handed in one area only).

• Academic Quotes: I pick out the quotes and research I need to support my thesis here, making sure to organize them in accordance with my citations so I don’t lose track of who wrote what.

• Primary Source Quotes: Here is where I put all of the quotes I think pertain to my thesis from the primary source (book/poem/play/etc). Sometimes I divide the quotes into subcategories, or even color code them, that way I know more smoothly where everything is.

• Works Cited: Finally, I keep a running tally of all of the citations I use so I don’t end up accidentally deleting them (guess how I learned this…ㅜㅜ)

—

And that’s it! Now you just have to write! Everything is organized and ready to go. Start as slow as you need, write that first paragraph, sticking to the topic you assigned to it. Take breaks, come back, and re-read it. Save different drafts if you need to, that way you can always go back and salvage whatever you suddenly need. Enjoy the writing process as much as you can. You are contributing to the academic realm of knowledge and ambition, after all!
