"If I were orpheus I wouldn't look back"
But we look back everyday- rechecking emails, making sure a friend is still behind you, checking to see if you remebered to pick up your keys. It's second nature, a habit of care.
It was second nature for him too. He looked back, not out of weakness, but love. For what is love, if not to look back?
You didn’t need to break my heart OP
chatgpt is the coward's way out. if you have a paper due in 40 minutes you should be chugging six energy drinks, blasting frantic circus music so loud you shatter an eardrum, and typing the most dogshit essay mankind has ever seen with your own carpel tunnel laden hands
Most of my job is marking essays and I will tell you this:
1. Most of the time it's painfully obvious when you're using AI because it spits out the most generic takes possible, and it often attributes statements to people who did not make those statements.
2. An AI paper fills me with a vitriolic rage the likes of no other. It makes me viscerally angry that you're wasting my time and yours this way. School is expensive. There are so many people who would love to be here, who would love to actually be learning but they cant afford to. Have some respect and actually use the education you're privileged enough to be able to pay for.
3. An AI paper will get you reported to the academic integrity office, because it's plagiarism. This is not an opinion of mine its a school policy. An academic integrity violation will follow you for the rest of your academic career (if you're even able to get anyone to give you a second chance) and beyond. Its not worth it.
4. A half assed, insane, incoherent paper that I know you wrote the night before? Relatable. Endearing. Ive been there, I can see you trying. You'll get the best mark I can reasonably give you- it might not be a great mark but it won't be as low as a chatgpt mark. You won't get an academic integrity violation on your record and you might actually learn something.
As a TA im always willing to help people if they ask for help. If you're confused or behind in a class I'm paid to help you keep up. Most schools also have writing centers, where you can access free tutors who will help you with outlines and editing your work.
There is no shame using those resources. The students that do use them reliably end up with better grades at the end of term, and they also save time because its a lot harder to spot your own mistakes than it is to have someone else point them out to you.
Ok rant concluded, carry on.
University tutor/TA here and I can second ALL of the above. Red Bull will destroy your evening. AI will destroy your academic career.
Writing a 40-minute paper on energy drink fuel is a time-honored tradition and infinitely more valuable to you as a person. We don’t assign essays for the purpose of gathering essays—we’re trying to teach you how to think critically and argue for your observations. There’s no point in having a degree if you don’t have the skills the degree confirms you were trained in.
I’m sorry but I strongly refuse to accept “married man finds the love of his life in another woman and leaves his wife and children behind (to get married to the new one)” as romantic - not even a little bit.
same but im not sorry
you know what is romantic, unmarried carefree man meets love of his life, single mother with several kids and he bonds with them and loves them and becomes a part of the family and is a total sweetheart
yes Im aware this is aristocats
you do know that when jewish and romani people say “never forget” we mean “learn about the holocaust so you can recognize the warning signs of facism and genocide” not “repeatedly bring up the holocaust whenever anything bad happens and exploit our pain and trauma to make people care about your cause” and when we say “never again” we mean “take action to prevent any stage of genocide on any scale by any means, hold collaborators responsible and don’t be complicit” not “only care about genocide when it’s too late”, right? or did you think it was just a fun catchphrase?
no actually reblog this

I was gonna put this in my queue but tbh I think it’s more relevant right now.
Yeah.
Is Voldemort sp-blind? When I re-read the books, I realized he seems to overcompensate in the safety department w/ his Horcruxes. Plus the way he approaches people and appeals to them (esp. during Hogwarts) is very one-one style. He reads the environment and using his 3, adapts to suit them individually(Slughorn, Grey Lady). His overall charm as Tom Riddle that makes him intense and memorable is very sx imo. What are your thoughts?
SP is being aware of your mortality and protecting it by ensuring you always have enough of what you need to survive -- in his case, horcruxes, so I can’t see him as an sp-blind. I see him as so/sp or even sp/so, given that he is almost neurotic (as your dominant stacking is, since it’s the thing you most value in life) about protecting what he has done and ensuring it survives. I think his ability to charm people comes from his social stacking. To think about it, Voldemort doesn’t really care about social except as a tool -- he alienates his own followers by treating them badly and has no preference for anyone over another except in their loyal devotion to his cause (Bellatrix, but she’s still in the dog house with the rest of her family when they disappoint him). So he may be sp/so, only using people insomuch as they serve his survival.
Grindelwald on the other hand might be sp-blind. He doesn’t care so much about survival as he does power and recruiting people to his cause. He seduced Dumbledore into his inner circle when they were young (before their eventual falling out and different values drove them apart), and then expanded it to include other people along the way -- so he might sx/so or so/sx.
I’m not totally comfortable typing stackings yet and am still learning, but that’s my two cents on the matter. One-to-one is not sx, btw. That’s a cleaned up description of it to make it sound more appealing; everyone prefers one-on-one relationships. Sx is fusing into people and living off their energy, feeling instantly whether you have heat and chemistry with someone or do not, and making decisions about who you will be with based on that; a desperate drive to compete and be victorious when it comes to sexual displays, and a rawness in your ambitious pursuit of amorous relationships. Sx is Jack and Rose in Titanic, being drawn together like magnets and having a short-term (because he died) explosive love affair, because they need each other like air.
If we wait until we’re ready, we’ll be waiting for the rest of our lives.

I'm afraid to ask.. what happened? 😬
Are you fucking kidding me

Fuck this is so disgusting
This post is a fucking Pandora's box of awful
Oh my God. This gets worse every time I see it!
This is why I live alone. I don’t want to be remembered as a murderer, and I’d kill each and every one of these jerks.
It’s so interesting to see these men carefully plan and go out of their way to ruin something harmless and fun, like put real effort into it, and then go “it’s just [x]”
Like if it was JUST socks or an app or a blanket or some jars, why did it BOTHER you so much?
Because it was a symbol of your s/o not being entirely dependent on you, on getting happiness outside of you, of being their own human with their own feelings. And you KNOW that deep down, or else you wouldn’t have gone to such effort to sabotage it.
All you’ve ever wanted was to be feared and rule the world but every villainous act you commit backfires. Steal candy from a baby? Poisoned candy, baby saved. Steal the baby? Abusive parents. Threw a woman off a building? Push she needed to unlock her powers of flight, she’s now your sidekick.
Newly acquired toddler: Mr. Evil man you sure are helping a lot of people. Villain: Finish eating your lunch, Timmy. Daddy’s plotting to overthrow the Big Bank. Sidekick: Oh that’s great, John! They’re so corrupt. I’ll cancel my plans with Linda tonight. She’s gonna love this. Villain: *crumples up evil plans and throws them across the room* DAMMIT!
*the plans land in the recycling bin*
Heya I made a thing! Impostober!
I noticed a lack of art october prompts for Among Us, so I made one of my own! Impostober!
You don’t need to get detailed or anything like that. Just posting a quick sketch or doodle, or even just editing sprites or making a simple meme works just as much as a full illustration!
Also, you can skip or combine days as much as you want! Go absolutely ham with this list!!
This.
There are so many rich people who get to try a new hobby every day while the rest of us are struggling
You’re probably sick of U.S. politics by now but listen the fuck up.
Trump passed an executive order called the “1776 Commission” which will ban schools from teaching about the slave trade. Under this order, teachers can be fined or jailed for teaching about it.
He claims it’s “patriotic education” and that America was not founded on oppression but this is a fucking lie, it is a LIE. This is brainwashing, this is whitewashing, this is Nazi shit.
This. Is. Nazi shit.
There are 2 options now.
1. Congress manages to pass a bill in a 2/3 majority to override the order. I say 2/3 because we all know he’s gonna veto it.
2. The Supreme Court declares the order unconstitutional. If a Supreme Court Justice is nominated before the election, this will almost certainly not happen.
Please please please I am begging you, spread awareness of this, call your senators, call your representatives, beg them to fight this, beg them to postpone a vote until after the election
@glumshoe @normal-horoscopes @halfusek @theshitpostcalligrapher @thebootydiaries I’m sorry to bother you guys but this needs to get out there, please I am begging you spread awareness of this,
Call your senators
Call your representatives
AND FUCKING
VOTE.
Our lives depend on this, please go out and vote, call senators and representatives. Get this fucker out of office in November because many people literally cannot afford four more years of his shit.
boost this shit. Odd, for someone who claims to care so much about trafficking and ‘draining the swamp”, banning discussion about slavery in general would mean that this is banned as well. Our president is banning properly historical education, send help
Yes, this is true. Not a myth. He wants to ban teaching citizens that our past has lead to racial inequality even more than a 100 years later. He calls it propaganda instead of education. I like how people seem to think dictators just pop up and start doing fascist shit. Nope, they take it one step at a time, making it seem normal and easing their supporters in. This is NOT normal.
He doesn’t have the power to do this, but the suggestion should be horrifying. It’s planting a seed. It’s telling his supporters in those states that he wants to do this. Supporters that CAN control the curriculum on the state level. Get. Him. Out.

Narrator: So one of the things I hate about my brother is that he hogs the bathroom in the morning, (probably because it takes so long to wash and dry his Skrillex hair). So I decided I wanted to change that. So in school we learned about this guy who was able to train dogs to drool to the sound of a bell by ringing a bell each time he showed food. So I decided I wanted to try something similar on my brother. So basically my plan was to place this Perry the platypus thing in my bathroom every day before he woke up, and then I would hide somewhere in there to scare him, so then eventually he’d associate Perry the platypus with getting scared, and he wouldn’t come into the bathroom as long as it was there. So I actually only had to do this for a couple days and, good news! As long as Perry the platypus is there, my brother won’t even set foot in there.
Pavlov's platypus
Pavlov’s Perry the Platypus?
