[ratcandy]

#hievery the stress of the past week is now over. exam done. volunteer work done. now i can just pass out #(wrong i have homework to do still but IN THEORY...........i can pass out a little bit) #also side tangent u know what's so stupid and annoying. So I'm very lactose intolerant right and I ate cheeseburger because I'm a frequent #ignorer of my lactose intolerance. And then as I began suffering for my mistakes I go to find a bathroom and these people in the place #we are volunteering right outside of. because they INVITED us there #have the audacity to be like ''ummm our restrooms are for customers only <3'' What!! Excuse you!!!! #Girl I'm suffering what are you talking about!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #I ended up just going to the place next door to them out of spite. Super irritating though #ok enough bitching from me who here likes that ant guy #clamtalk #bugposting

stars!! re: your tags on the post you rb'd about wizard uni/wizard tech school: may i recommend Year of the Griffin, by Diana Wynne Jones (the woman who forced Tolkien to keep lecturing instead of fucking of to work on his books by continuing to attend his terrible uni lectures) as a book leaning hard into the wizard undergrad lyfe. One of the main protags is a griffin from a loving family of human wizards (this book is loosely the sequel to The Dark Lord of Derkholm, the fantasy pastiche) and the book follows her and the ragtag group of friends she makes at uni as their various unique problems interfere with the process of studying magic and making friends at university. It's been a while since I last read it but it features terrible profs obsessed with going to the moon, a pirate invasion, philosophy of magic debates in the cafeteria, and a really sweet moment in the middle of an action-packed climax where the main protags have to talk out their feelings to fix the big magical life-threatening problem. I highly recommend!

(wish I knew a book that went the wizard trade school route, but alas. if you hear of a book like that please tell!)

tumblr I need a "mark as unread" option for my inbox because the moment the little dot went away I forgot this ask existed. oops. sorry verso I read this and appreciated it and then forgot to reply 😅

(the wizard uni/trade school post)

That book sounds amazing, thank you for the rec!! The post made me really hungry for like, relatable-to-my-current-life uni shenanigans but with magic, and now I'm so curious what Undergrad Life(TM) adventures this book contains and if any of them will resonate. Either way it sounds like it's full of very fun shenanigans. (Now what I really need is a book about wizard art school. Someone should write that.) Anyway, thank you verso, this is going on my tbr immediately :)

#stars answers #book recs #tbr #seriously. wizard art school. I want this to be a thing so bad now #if I'm basing it fully on my own experience then it should be like #a subset of the wizard uni that's equivalent to the art school #all the artificers are busy with magical calculus and the humanities wizards have to write so many papers #meanwhile the art mage's homework is the equivalent of 'paint a value scale' #that or they have multiple monthlong creative projects that they have to design from the ground up going on at once #.......my semester is going great why do you ask #hmmmmm color theory as an element of spellcasting though. that's definitely something..... #tag for tags

The absolute indignity of begging uni administration for extensions and redos. The needle to thread between "I am doing so poorly please just give me this I'm at the fucking end of my rope" and "promise it's just right now though I'm going to get soo much better and be so normal for next time it's just this once". The way I'm sent into horrendous spirals about my self-worth and future every time I have a deadline.

#genuinely getting an epidermic reaction to assignments #i hate hate hate begging them to be nice to me #like guys. i know 'it's the bare minimum though'. #i'm in a foreign country living on my own for the first time #i've been struggling with undiagnosed/untreated adhd for like four years now at least #i've been crying over homework and assignments for fours years at least!! #this isn't even the end of my rope #the rope has been over for a while now #it's not the the last dregs of my motivation. i've been trying to make more motivation from those dregs for years #i'm so far past the end it's not funny #and masters applications.... #i want to live so so bad but every time i start thinking. what if i wasn't alive to be living through this though #like if say. i wasn't conscious for a few months. it'd all be over by then #fucking hell #and then if they don't grant me the redos i'm going to fail my year :) #and have to redo it next year at home #argh #the more i think about it the more i get less. viscerally disgusted by the concept #it's just... man i don't want my luck to be coming to an end #i guess in some ways it's admirable i've been pushing my limits this far and i'm doing so well outside of schoolwork #but nobody else except me my family and my friends see it like that #anyway. off to submit special cons again for another assignment. i hate this #wow i have a ramble tag now

Im so so curious who do you plan on voting tommorow in the sexyman polls, Brant or Fintan?

I was torn over this but I think I'm going to commit to the bit. I've argued for Brant so relentlessly, it feels cheap to turn my back on him and just hand Fintan the win so far in. I know he's still very very likely to win (and I understand why), but I want to at least try and give him a fight.

Brant came back from the dead, and I'll be by his side when he returns to the grave

#kotlc #kotlc sexyman 2023 #answering this instead of doing homework because WHY are you making us make a physical project when this is a virtual class #i don't HAVE physical objects representative of my mexican american identity to put in a nicely decorated box >:( #i have like three things that's it #OUGH #anyway I am going DOWN with brant he's my ride or die now #fintan's too easy of an answer #brant though? no one expected this #no on went into this thinking anything of him #he's the underdog #and I've accidentally gotten wrapped up in him since people kept sending asks about it #and I'm COMMITTING #VOTE BRANT

[erstwhilesparrow]

going from doing primarily math / programming to doing primarily reading / theory is so funny. i go "hell yes, i get to read a physical book today!! love to do that!!" and i can feel the spirits of my exhausted humanities friends shaking their heads fondly at me

#sparrowsong #i have a stack of books on my shelf that's Just School Stuff #and like. it is bizarrely making me kind of wiggly-happy-excited every time i look at it #i'm sure i will not feel this way in a couple of weeks! #but i am amused that instead of hiding under the blankets from my homework these days i am going 'book?? i get to read book now?? :D' #bad news though: it turns out i find stats history just as boring as doing actual stats #can't believe i have to know math in this math history course

[olliecoded]

yes kick me out to go stay at my dad's house (where i have absolutely NO material possessions) the night before i have two tests and a HUGE project due. that is perfectly fine with me yep.

#im crying about this right now hehehe #i dont own ANYTHING at his house #i'm going to have to try and pack up all of my textbooks and laptop and clothing and toiletries to take over #(which is why i don't ever stay over on school nights by the fucking way) #and then stay in the same room as my little sister even though ill probably be up till 3am studying and working but whatever doesnt fucking #matter. then wake up way earlier than her so that she can bitch at me all morning for waking her up #and my dad's doesnt have a coffee machine #i am so fucking stressed about this i kind of want to break down. i have TOO MUCH SHIT to do tomorrow night to be displaced. #so that my mom can have a ''night alone'' i stay in my room fucking alone and uninterrupted half the time #is me staying in my bedroom doing homework with the door closed a fucking problem???? really???? are u shitting me #sorry i am so angry right now. i am so upset #i need to stop crying but i am not going to actually #hello world #vent in tags

[sleepychaika]

started taking an anxiety medication yesterday. and while it's meant to improve your sleep, i had a pretty nasty nightmare after my first day of taking it. but. i'm still not over how my friend has commented on the issue quite eloquenty with "atarax just posted cringe"

#like yeha man. yeah. is there even a better word to way that. i think not #i mixed up the words #anyway #i'm also feeling its effects now and honestly its pretty relieving to not feel this anxiety evrty waking second!of my day! #im also Realy drowsy though #i should be doing my homework but at this rate i prolly wont be at the peak of productiveness so. im gonna go. draw something #.txt

[raveartts]

yes! yes!!! I have finished all the (bookmarked) attacks I had for art fight

#rave ramblees #art fight #and i don't get attacked out of the blue usually so i don't have to worry much about revenges #< it would suck to be sixbane though #she's actually insane. this year she's all 'quality over quantity i'm tired' (already has 110 attacks in 11 days) #how the fuck does she do it does she not SLEEP or....have an exceeding lack of motivation?????? #anyways i could still do more attacks if i want but now idk who i should go for #i usually just end up going back to the same users from previous years if they're participating #and sometimes i wanna try new people so idk #but i should take a few days off and do the goatlings stuff (and also my homework i guess-) #but anyhow. that's 14 attacks this year #which is a little pathetic compared to previous years usually averaging closer to 40 #(which i generally do all in one week and sit out the rest of the fight) #but i had a job this year and have also been Not Feeling Well in the mental department

fuuta is so interesting tbh

#⋯ ꒰ა starry thoughts ໒꒱ *·˚ #⋯ ꒰ა milgram ໒꒱ *·˚ #i voted innocent already but i'll see the drama audio as soon as there's a translation that i can watch/listen to after i do homework asap #i can really understand fuuta. he reminds me of me if i go too far #and so i think that in all honesty yeah guilty -> innocent -> innocent #unless he still might benefit most from a guilty vote this time around #he's really interesting bcs he's actually really similar to us. the viewers #'hoisting up morality and feeling good' he's calling the milgram project out and US. but he's now also being a hypocrite #which is interesting. he said in 'bring it on' smth smth about evil hypocrites are shit! he's like them now ngl #and so guilty vote i think was best. for the first. but ultimately he deserves innocent i believe #the 2nd trial i am unsure about bcs it will of course affect the last trial. and also the rest of the prisoners one way or another #and there is real danger of someone dying... but also idk they might have said that to scare us but this is deco*27. i believe that #the site is so slow oh my god bless i was able to vote almost immediately LMAO #i think fuuta obviously shows regret. also i don't think he was the one who started the flame but the one who added more fire to the flame #and he's. like. 'follows the flow' and 'coward' but 'good at heart'. and ultimately he should be forgiven i believe but yeah yeah? #he's at fault but not the most at fault but he deflects all taking of responsibility and i think that's wrong #i REALLY understand him with that. i was the same. and that's why now i'm still not fully honest with saying my true thoughts #because it's really just hard but ultimately you NEED to. and idk whether an innocent or guilty vote would be best ngl #hmmm tbh nothing is truly certain yet though. lots of theories still but for me thats the gist ^^ ? #he needs to be open about his feelings and thoughts. man up. take responsibility even if it likely is true he isn't the most at fault #because he still is. but at the same time the whole 'spectators' and 'pressure' makes me think it may be some sort of #yk. following the flow. peer pressure thing. and he was the one that was either the loudest in the end or the one who lagged behind #i think he was looking for some sort of validation of sorts maybe. seeking the applause. because he's 'last in line' ??? #'blame-shifting'. i think he's a victim but he's still at fault one way or another but i think he isn't the main/first perpetrator fr #'one mistake and now i'm out of chances' he's defending himself and making excuses but also he's also right #maybe i'm projecting because i really relate to him (not to the extent of causing someone's death ofc but kid me was stupid) #'not my fault not even slightly' now THAT'S wrong. but it's more that he's in denial rather than now knowing that he's wrong #last tag! but yea tldr he's regretful but he still needs to get more out of denial. from experience innocent might actually help w that ngl #fuuta kajiyama

i'm at 1500 words and am exhausted but i've already explained nine strategies and now i've got to explain three more

#thank goodness my group didn't pick seventeen strategies #i'd be ready to give up by now #though after this i've still go to go back and add the few small things i skipped and fix my original section so we don't get those points #off again #fuck me i'm so ready to be done with this class #and yet after this 40 page 13k word report we still have to do group homework?? for some reason??? as if we haven't written enough?? #awesomepie3221

On the Sanderia Malayensis:

English Wikipedia:

[No Common name]

Japanese Wikipedia:

Amakusa Jellyfish :D

(OK, I’ll admit that I’m exaggerating just a bit and taking things out of context, but the bottom line is that you can learn a lot just from researching the same animal from different languages of the Wikipedia!

If you’re also interesting in learning about this jellyfish, I’ll link them here :>:

sanderia malaynsis (EN) アマクサクラゲ (sanderia malaynsis) (JP)

#honestly I somewhat prefer the japanese entries to the english entries of the wiki #though the English wiki is by far the most organized (even if it's plenty imperfect) #still the Japanese wikis tend to be limited by location #while the English wiki has a ton of stubs of jellyfish from all across the world #Japan tends to only do the well-known jellies (and only really elaborates on the local species- which i can't fault them for but for those- #-who want to learn more about jellyfish. they'd probably find it easier to go to the English Wiki) #honestly tho the english wiki does include more sources #i'm a lil sad that the japanese wiki didn't include a source that detailed the jellyfish's life cycle from Hokkaido University #i'm sure they would've released that study in japanese too... sigh :( #though it also includes information from the 110 jellyfish encyclopedia WHICH IS MAKING ME SEETHE BECAUSE !! I WANT TO READ IT!!!! #I WANNA READ IT SO BAD BUT I DO NOT UNDERSTAND JAPANESE HGHNN #tbh tho the narrow localization of the jellyfish wiki page doesn't really bother me too much because Ite (the game im researching for) does- #-take place in japan. so. #also also it appears that Japan keeps these jellies in aquariums as well so it makes sense that there wouldn't be much info on it in english #still #it was a very entertaining read and now im going to cry because my calculus homework is too hard for me and i don't wanna do it

don't you love the little things in life

#🌙.rambles #i shld be doing school stuff but i'm here rambling bcs i love life >.> #i mean in the end when you think abt it the specifics in homework don't really matter in the whole expanse of life #but i mean still try your best !?! yes #that said though #just thinking abt how much i love the way #my mom laughs n smile when i say smth funny #the way my dad replies back when i tell him goodnight #how apollo n i banter n laugh together before we go to sleep #i especially love the nights where we hug #or like. i can't sleep so i hold their hand n it helps me #the way my friends check up on me n tell me they miss me #or send me things that remind them of me #like hehe online ffxiv friends sending pictures of the moon wayy over where they are in europe #n the little ways how we match the texting style of the ppl we talk to #n when calling or speaking irl #the subtleties in voice. the little laughs n the unseen smiles n the silence in between #in school when i see a friend across the hallway n #hehe one of my classmates i pet their head wnvr i come across them #they do the same w me now as well c: #the little habits we pick up from others! the things we learn from each other! that'll stay with us for the rest of our laugh #the soft n affectionate ways we perceive another. maybe teasing my friends about someone they like #or them thanking me when i help out w smth #maybe the way i smile when i see my friends happy. the pride in my heart #the way we say sorry and thank you. and each time we open up more with another person #the way we remember names n preferences. the way we grow up together. #n then similarities n differences. how beautiful it is to relate to another unique individual #there's so much in the little things. #n there are things we forget. memories lost. but they may still be with another who shared the same moment n remembers #we live and die together. we're all connected. it's beautiful

[melonpond]

I'm still reeling from just how many things happened today

#melon rambles #I'm not even talking about like tumblr things or news though that's contributed to it #lots of good? but mostly unexpected and odd? stuff has happened to me irl today #and since my average day for the past two weeks or so has been 'go to class do math homework play minecraft for too long and sleep' #I think my brain is unsure how to handle new experiences now #anyways in my video class today my professor sent us out onto various parts of the campus to do little interview thing #mostly it's just to get used to the cameras and equipment and stuff the actual interview doesn't matter too much #and I ran into this guy from highschool that I was kind of friends with #and I got his number and texted him a bit earlier so we can catch up and just talk again #and if the interview project couldn't get anymore unexpected #my classmates and I were chilling figuring out what else we wanted to do with this video #and the president of the university was walking by and asked us what we were doing (because we had a tripod and stuff out) #and we got to interview the president of the school #I actually made sure the shot looked good and hit record and everything on an interview with the president! #the professor was amazed #and it sounds like he's going to show the whole class the footage we took

megumi's teacher — gojo satoru x reader

tags/warnings: fluff. fem!reader. gojo beefing with an eight year old. 700 words.

ever since megumi started the second grade, it's been (l/n)-sensei this. (l/n)-sensei that.

gojo picks up megumi's favorite ice cream, only to be scolded by the young boy. "(l/n)-sensei's favorite flavor is strawberry, so that's my favorite now!"

gojo tries to help him with his math homework, and it's "(l/n)-sensei did it this way. that means you should too!"

gojo reaches down to tie megumi's shoes for him, before his hand is promptly smacked away. "(l/n)-sensei said big boys tie their own shoes!"

honestly, gojo is starting to feel a little jealous. megumi's known you for what? two months?

he's been raising megumi for the past few years, but does that earn him an ounce of the adoration the young boy seems to have for you?

apparently not, though he perseveres nonetheless.

he and megumi are spending the afternoon out in the city and they stop at a small bakery for lunch.

while megumi is distracted looking at all the sweets behind the glass counter, the bell on the door draws gojo's attention.

his eyes fall upon a pretty young woman. actually, you might just be the prettiest woman he's ever seen.

and of course, a smirk forms on his lips when he catches you looking his way. he's puffing out his chest, running a hand through his hair.

he's always had a certain effect on the ladies, and he's never been more happy about that until this very moment—

"megumi?" you call from a few feet away. the wide smile adorning your face makes you look even more radiant.

while gojo visibly deflates, megumi's head whips around at the speed of light. "(l/n)-sensei!"

oh.

gojo very quickly comes to understand why the boy is so enamored by you.

megumi launches himself at you, while you crouch to meet him with open arms.

"i'm so happy to see you!" he practically sings, clinging to your neck.

you chuckle at his enthusiasm. "i'm happy to see you too, 'gumi."

gojo clears his throat, hoping that megumi will take the chance to introduce you two, but he is completely ignored.

"what are you going to get? i'll buy it for you," he states proudly, despite having zero money of his own.

your gaze shifts to gojo for the first time, and having your attention even just for a brief moment takes his breath away.

"that's very sweet megumi, but that's alright." you ruffle his hair when he pouts at your words, standing back up. "who's this?"

"oh that's just gojo. don't worry about him," he states with a wave of his hand.

the white haired man gawks at him in response. the nerve on that kid! he silently decides megumi will be losing dessert privileges for a week. no, two.

you stifle a giggle before offering your hand to him and introducing yourself as megumi's teacher.

he repeats your name, taking satisfaction in the way it sounds rolling off his tongue.

"that's a pretty name," he compliments, trying to recover from megumi's dismissal. "heard a lot about you. in fact, the kid never shuts up about you."

this earns him a glare from megumi, but gojo is too preoccupied with the shy look that crosses your features to notice.

gojo insists on paying for your order, a show of appreciation for taking such good care of megumi in class. you chat with the pair of them for a little while longer before eventually excusing yourself.

"thank you again, gojo-san. i'll see you on monday, megumi!"

just as you're turning on your heel, gojo calls your name and you look back at him expectantly.

"when, uh," he struggles, scratching the back of his neck. "when do i get to see you?"

nice.

"oh! well, parent-teacher conferences are only a few weeks away! i'll look forward to seeing you then," you answer sweetly, misunderstanding the meaning behind his words.

you bid them goodbye once more and they both watch your figure disappear down the street.

megumi turns to look at gojo smugly. "weeks? that sounds like a really long time—"

"shut it, kid."

it has come time for me to actually decide what subject i want to specialize in as a teacher and i'm so scared i'm gonna make the wrong choice and waste four years and an assload of money choosing the wrong one

#i wanted to be an english teacher at first #but english and writing and editing are my passions and i want to be an editor and an author someday #and ideally i do that on the side while i teach (probably middle or high school but leaning towards middle school) #but i don't want to resent english or grow so tired of it from doing that as both jobs #plus being a teacher is never like having one job it's like two #what with grading homework and lesson planning and classroom upkeep #i dont want to be tired of reading 120 student's paper to then go home and read an ameteur writer's manuscript you know? #like both of those sound delightful but not both at the same time?? #idk i can see myself being a science teacher i always liked science and i understand it easily #and i always enjoyed teaching my little brother all about science #wait nevermind! i think i got it #i would love to live my days as a science teacher #i wanna disect frogs and teach centrifugal force and race mouse trap race cars #omg i'm having an epiphany #now i just have to figure out if im gonna double major science and english or wait on the english degree #although idk if i can be a teacher AND be going to school myself at the same time #im gonna be working through school too... #im gonna make it work though #EEEEE
