I forgot to take my ADHD meds today and I was pumping gas minding my own business and this guy wearing a “make america great again” hat out of nowhere asked me who I’m voting for and instead of ignoring him, changing the topic, or saying something NORMAL, I said without hesitation “oh I can’t vote. I’m a convicted felon” (I am not)
people misunderstand what ‘gifted kid’ actually means but it’s ok it’s fine it’s cool it’s good
it’s not about actually being gifted, it’s about an initial higher scoring on standardized testing that means little to nothing or being good at learning in the way elementary and middle school wants you to, so you get marked as ‘advanced’. in reality, maybe you had faster development in certain areas, but the issue with being a gifted kid isn’t that “everyone told me I was so cool and special for reading and then I actually wasn’t :(” it’s “I wasn’t properly taught to handle things not coming easily to me, but the adults around me were counting on me not being a ‘difficult’ child in school.”
people who use it as some weird bragging method or interpret it that way are ignoring the way a lot of school systems force certain roles on students to simplify the learning process. If your kid doesn’t need to take notes to understand a science concept bc they get it naturally, well that’s good, but now you’re not teaching them how to take notes and they’re not learning that important soft skill. but because ‘gifted’ kids are easy and don’t show that they’re falling behind in learning in other categories that are harder to quantify, they eventually fall behind after that catches up to them. It’s about the failures of a one size fits all school system trying to compensate in the worst way possible.
And also the thing where ‘gifted’ kids are super likely to also be neuroatypical, which they don’t get screened for because they appear to be doing well in school. Or “You can’t be ADHD/autistic/etc, because you’re doing so well in school!”. Or being shamed for developing mental health issues/generally not being able to keep up with school work later, because you USED TO BE able to do it just fine.
Or the assumption that just because you can read well or you like math class, you’re somehow more EMOTIONALLY mature than your little kid brain is actually capable of being.
Or gifted kids whose parents and teachers put immense pressure on them to Do Great Things and Save The World and you’re like. “I’m 10 and I have no idea how to do that, but everyone is saying that’s my job?”.
This is the best “gifted kid” post out there. I never took notes until college because I didn’t have to, snd when it got challenging I had to literally teach myself note taking at age 18. It also fucks with your perception of asking for help - you’re advanced, you’re competent, you should be able to understand every topic easily. Asking for help/going to office hours/asking for a tutor feels like failing when you were praised in your early years for not needing to do that.
The Spy Kids movies have the exact vibe of when you and your friends are running around in the backyard creating an elaborate story based entirely around whatever random nonsense happens to be lying around. This empty happy meal box is a computer. If I spin this bop-it the right way it will unlock the secret door. We have to get to the jets! (The jets are the swings). My little sister says her pigtails spin around and let her fly and we all agree with that. These swim goggles let me see through walls. There are a series of stepping stones leading to a big rock in the middle of the garden. The rock is the office of the Head Spy and the dirt is actually a bottomless pit, so you have to be careful when you jump across. The bad guys have disabled all our weapons but my necklace is actually a secret super cool weapon that works anyway! There’s logic and continuity but only as much as a bunch of five-to-twelve year olds can keep straight without bothering to keep notes or look up any science facts they don’t already happen to know. This is not a complaint.
^_^ OMG HI BESTIE HIIIIIHIIII *glomps u*

Cary grant and Randolph Scott lived together for 11 years in their mansion entitled the bachelor pad there are press pictures of the two of them living in a completely wonderfully domestic setting
When Cary grant has to marry as to stop the rumours of their gayness he became very depressed, him and his wife divorced 13 months later
Putting more pictures here because yes
Also they reason said wife divorced Cary is bc Randolph “refused to leave” their home and Cary wouldn’t kick him out.
I’d seen some of these pub stills before but not all of them, imagine middle America looking at this and thinking they were just bachelors sharing a house holy fuck
nonbinary people be like
and for that they are very very cool and awesome
this is the only comment that matters
Your persistence is admirable tumblr but even with this godawfully ugly update i can still edit john greens posts. So once again. suck my dick
daily reminder that there is absolutely nothing normal about being expected to waste a majority of your life at a corporation to survive instead of indulging in better life experiences ✨
In the 1960s it was a common speculation that by 1980 the typical work week would consist of 4 days. And by the year 2000 we’d be working no more than 3 days a week.
Because of computerization, automation, and better efficiencies in workflow.
Guess what happened instead?
Bro I love married banter but also I hate it bc Im like. God I wish that were me
Nothing has ever so acutely made me want a partner as when Rachel McElroy mispronounced "teetotaler" and Griffin, filled with delight, without a hint of irony, was like "you're the LOVE and LIGHT of my life let's get married again" like shit dude maybe love is real
basically all “worm on a string” comparisons to actual animals pale in comparison to the fucking pipehorse
like. c’mon. there’s literally no other living animal that comes even close to resembling this
We found him. Worm is off the sting, and into ocean. He is free.
