one of the things about being an educator is that you hear what parents want their kids to be able to do a lot. they want their kid to be an astronaut or a ballerina or a politician. they want them to get off that damn phone. be better about socializing. stop spending so much time indoors. learn to control their own temper. to just "fucking listen", which means to be obedient.

one of the things i learned in my pedagogy classes is that it's almost always easier to roleplay how you want someone to act. it's almost always easier to explain why a rule exists, rather than simply setting the rule and demanding adherence.

i want my kids to be kind. i want them to ask me what book they should read next, and i want to read that book with them so we can discuss it. i want my kid to be able to tell me hey that hurt my feelings without worrying i'll punish them. i want my kid to be proud of small things and come running up to me to tell me about them. i want them to say "nah, i get why this rule exists, but i get to hate it" and know that i don't need them to be grateful-for-the-roof-overhead while washing the dishes. i want them to teach me things. i want them to say - this isn't safe. i'm calling my mom and getting out of this. i want them to hear me apologize when i do fuck up; and i want them to want to come home.

the other day a parent was telling me she didn't understand why her kid "just got so angry." this woman had flown off the handle at me.

my dad - traditional catholic that he is - resents my sentiment of "gentle parenting". he says they'll grow up spoiled, horrible, pretentious. granola, he spits.

i am going to be kind to them. i am going to set the example, i think. and whatever they choose become in the meantime - i'm going to love them for it.

#writeblr #i was doing a lot with high school students. over and over again #other teachers kept asking me what i was doing differently - why the kids listened to me. i am not particularly foreboding #and i have a pretty firm personal policy of never reacting in anger #godhelpme. #i was always kind of taken aback #because in general the kids were pretty easy. i explained i needed to keep everything “PG-13” because this was my workplace #and it was kind of their workplace #too. besides #i love swearing #and since i couldn't swear #neither could they - so if they were going to say “fuck” or become violent #they needed to choose a really specific time #because we only get “the one”.. sure enough - nobody wanted to waste the one very specific “fuck” utterance. kids listened. #i think just because - that rule makes sense. the kids understand that i don't want to be unfair to them #that censorship is stupid #but that i'm under these rules too so like let's ride it out together #also i look young and tbh between me and u nobody wants to make the nice english teacher cry #the way these kids defended me to their friends was really genuinely so heartwarming bc the Grouchy Frat Boy #would be like MISS RAQUEL DOESN'T DESERVE THAT KIND OF AN ATTITUDE BRO DON'T TALK BACK TO HER

#spiderman #deadpool #spideypool #comic #I did this for a class #an ENGLISH class #but we're learning about comics as literature and for the most recent paper we had an option to make a comic #and the main theme we're studying this semester is power so i made this #anyway I forgot how goddamn hard these two are to draw #I hate how complicated their costumes are like its so unnecessary #but I also think this is the most accurately I've drawn them #and they looked consistent through this whole thing #so I'm really proud of myself #and yes this is gay but i'm imagining that in this scene they don't realize they have feelings for each other yet hee hee #some of these were fuckin hard angles too what was i doing to myself!!! this was hard af!!! wtf!!! #and to be honest i drew all of this yesterday and today!!! that was so much drawing!!! og my god!!! #but it was fun he he #except i will always hate the webs on spideys costume. hell world #they have to look such a specific way and it is not easy #enough rambling. enjoy #also sorry im reuploading this because i had accidentally colored in one of spideys speech bubbles as yellow

[soriastrider]

this has almost certainly been done before, but i think it's funny so i did it anyway

original:

#dirkjake #dirk strider #jake english #homestuck #my art #i drew this right on top of the meme in an effort to make this quick and easy. which was a complete failure #i spent way too long on this and still failed at anatomy lmao #oh well #anyway. dirkjake #thought about making it jake's ass in the last panel but i decided i didnt wanna try to draw ass lol #also it would've been much harder to convey the inherent dumbass boyfriend energy that was the whole point of this #if jake's smug little face wasn't visible #he is expertly restraining giggles #I also had to rotate dirk in the last panel bc the original angle was just not working no matter how many times I tried to fix it #unfortunately anatomy hates me #bg image is from hs p4221

Being a Jane liker is so hard cause you go to her tag and it’s just a bunch of people lamenting how overhated she is and then continuing to ignore her, and being a Jake liker is so hard cause you go to his tag and it’s just tons of people making the most demeaning comments about him cause his character committed the crime of being annoying (unforgivable.)

#homestuck #jake english #jane crocker #vent #? #I guess hahaha #I am in the content trenches with these two #it’s always secretly about Dirk with them #Jane is Dirk’s bestie #Jake is Dirk’s boyfriend/ex #I just want content about them being friends/siblings/cousins or whatever #or with other people like Roxy or Jade #or even just stuff on their own #but nooooo always the same guy #and even the people who talk about how this fandom focuses too much on the dudes #characterize Jane as Dirk’s bestie and nothing more #I’m considering sharing my Jane analysis if only to bring more diversity #it’s actually kinda funny though that so much of their stuff revolves around Dirk #cause in canon that bothers Jane #how easy things are for him to just do #and she literally admits to being jealous of him #and while he interprets it to be mainly about Jake it’s honestly just in general #like he just does a bunch of stuff that she wishes she had the courage to do #and honestly he’s just more of a hero #they’re kinda like an inversion of John and Dave’s dynamic mixed with Jade and Dave’s #where from Dirks perspective it’s JadeDave in the sense that he just sees Jane as his silly friend who he must protect #while from Jane’s she’s the Dave to his John in that she wants to be heroic in the way he is #and like nobody does anything with that #The fandom ever focused on the boys takes Dirk’s side and says look at her #she’s just a girl

i think i've hit the limit of my Persian knowledge trying to translate Al Qolindar and it's driven me mad...

#wwdits #what we do in the shadows #nandor #nandor the relentless #nandermo #this HAS to have already been translated right?? RIGHT???? #there’s no way i’m the first person to attempt this #but hey if there’s any native persian speakers here that have any guidance i’d love to hear it! #al = ال = The (or dynasty) #that one was easy #(i suppose it could also reference the ‘al’ vampire like demon from persian mythology? but that seems like a stretch) #qol/qolni was the most difficult due to the english spelling #i believe that it is actually 'khanne' (خانه) which means 'home' #(but then you could also go down the 'Khan' route for 'king' #as a reference to Al Qolinidar being a 'khanate' like the Ilkhanate that ruled over Iran at the time #but i think thats when my eye started to twitch) #then you have dar = دار = have #so khanne (= خانه = home/house) + dar (= دار = have) #ال خانهدار = #the housekeeper (or housewife lol) #but omg there's SO many variations that there could be it really needs a learned parsi ear to translate Kayvan's pronunciations #or an actual official spelling #preferably in persian pls

Lil warm up doodle because I'd been playing some Thropes and then watched some dubbed DunMeshi and am a Damien Haas enjoyer so. Enjoy a Shez.

#fe warriors three hopes #shez #i usually watch subbed anime but my brain recently hasn't been able to process subtitles + not english #like my brain cannot filter the difference and then i simply get stressed out because i dont know what was said via reading #and its been... bad tbh #so i swapped over to the english audio but still with subtitles and its been fine ! #i also really enjoy how damien sounds so excited cause when i would watch him stream #and he would go on a story telling adventure it was so enthusiastic and genuine #and i like how he has that same vibe in the show #that said i have never drawn fanart for dunmeshi and dont wanna start now while i have other art obligations #i can dabble with learning how to draw different characters after i do comms if i feel up to it #but fe is such a default for me its really easy to draw as a doodle/warm up #also im incredibly biased to being fond of damien cause he commissioned me for emotes for twitch #which is incredibly flattering and no other va has bought art from me ? so thank you mr haas for the honors #i also am a shez enjoyer and love the vibes of both shez looks

Not dog related but have you been to Kuopio? My wife and I are planning to move there in a few years and I’m just curious what your thoughts might be as someone who actually lives in Finland. Also do you enjoy a cold dip after sauna or is that not really your thing?

I used to live in Kuopio! Spent my early childhood there. I still visit several times a year, it's one of those home-away-from-home places for me.

I don't enjoy cold, I rarely swim and I barely ever go to sauna (it always makes me feel sort of light-headed), so not my thing really :'> But if you think you might enjoy, like, the temperature shock and the adrenaline rush go for it.

#answered #ephemeralprince #I was a preschooler when we moved out and haven't lived there since so I can't really give any tips on what to do #I recommend the Kuopio museum though! it has a good natural history collection if you don't mind taxidermy #and a lifesize mammoth replica that traumatized my baby brother back in the day #I'm generalizing of course but Kuopio is probably pretty easy town to move to by Finnish standards #people are likely to speak English #and folks from Savo are typically considered to be reasonably social and chatty compared to some other regions

Arlecchino is confirmed to be cursed and we know hilichurls are cursed humans. Caterpie had similar cursed arms and legs. Not saying they have same curse but it seems to be implied it's similar. Considering her real name, Peruere, is eeringly similar to Perinheri from the latest book, I think Arlecchino's ties to Khaenri'ah are possible.

What is still left to be explained is, why does she glitch so much in her idles (as per the update trailer), what's up with the girl who looks like her dead friend Clevrie's child look, and how does Freminet fit into all this. He said he knew the previous Knave. And we know how the switch happened now. Was Freminet conveniently away at the time? Do Lyney and Lynette get adopted to the orphanage shortly afterwards?

I hope we learn these next week.
