[humming-fly]

Every now and then I'm reminded Real People with Actual Jobs use tumblr and I've always been legitimately curious what all you weird adults are up to when you're not on this site and with tumblr's New Poll Feature I can finally get an answer! (or the closest approximation of an answer possible with only 10 available options h a)

#tumblr /really/ shortened the character limit on these posts huh #could've sworn it was longer when i made the wizard one #anyways no shit i have always been curious #tragically 10 options limits things a lot but I tried to be broad XD #i'll start i'm an academic researcher studying civil engineering :V #humming-rambles #poll

I think it was yesterday or the day before that I saw an online free class on the basics of Chemistry and was like "okay let's go into that I may need it" and then realized that it was basically the whole course of the first year of medicine.

It made it a bit more exciting than me roaming around trying to scrap around stuff. I'm not perfect at all, and I only completed the first sequence out of 8, but I figured that I only need to go through it once, then again next year (if it's open again, I'll ask them to open that course again next year, and pray), to probably be fully ready for the year.

Because chemistry & biochemistry are one of the highest coefficient subject of the year, I really really want to be good at it before going in. Other ones are biocell and histology (histology looks really fun to me tbh) and then biophysics, and then human sciences. So I really need to work most on those specific items. I have little to no idea what I'll learn in human science because it's a broad subject (I think we do anthropology, psychology & co) but I don't think it's going to be as difficult as chemistry for me. Then I'm also lucky that I'm very good at English and computer stuff, because that's also a subject (low coef but still nice if I can have a very good grade in it).

You might think "if you pass courses it's gonna be enough" but actually it's not. In that specific year, you need to be the best to be sure to have a place in the second year of medschool, so I need to be close to number one, and that's what I'm intending to look for (which is about 16 to 17/20 on average or so, it's kinda high though not impossible if I work imho). The internship and the few days of vacation I had really sparked up my motivation, and I wish I could spend the day just studying. I'm less worried about biophysics because I'm usually good at physics but I still intent to dive more into it. Biochemistry needs chemistry to be fully understood, and then biocell is basically understanding what's happening in cells so it's not really that difficult.

All of that to basically leave all notions of chemistry and biochemistry in second year of medschool and all the years after, because there's no use of it for us in it lmao

In general I'm doing the whole year of medschool this year, to clear a bit the field, before diving more into specific high coef subjects for six months next year (except human science). I'm kinda tempted to learn anatomy too, but anatomy isn't a thing before the second semester so I'll probably forget everything.

something. about. the horror of being sent on an impossible (death) quest and obligations and hospitality politics. the trauma of not having a home, and then the trauma of being in a house that becomes actively hostile to you, one that would swallow you whole and spit out your bones if you step out of line. all of this is conditional, your existence continues to be something men want gone.

it's about going back as far as I can with the perseus narrative because there's always a version of a myth that exists behind the one that survives. the missing pieces are clearly defined, but the oldest recorded version of it isn't there! and there's probably something older before that!! but it's doomed to forever be an unfilled space, clearly defined by an outline of something that was there and continues to be there in it's absence.

and love. it's also about love. even when you had nothing, you had love.

on the opposite side of the spectrum, this is Not About Ovid Or Roman-Renaissance Reception, Depictions And Discourses On The Perseus Narrative.

edit: to add to the above, while it's not about Ovid, because I'm specifically trying to peel things back to the oldest version of this story, Ovid is fine. alterations on the Perseus myth that give more attention Medusa predate Ovid by several centuries. this comic is also not about those, either! there are many versions of this story from the ancient world. there is not one singular True or Better version, they're all saying something.

#it's all greek to me #perseus #danae #komiks tag #long post #every other week i start to say something about how greek heroes are a good case study in diaspora and exile trauma #but man perseus makes me so sad. so does danae. she loves her son :( #perseus turning a whole island to stone is a huge mood. i would also do that if i were him #anyway (salutes) take care everyone i gotta watch yunho's new video it looks like a fucking movie im so excited #(i singled out ovid bc i remember the fucking shit perseus discourse that ran through this site. i remember #im preemptively loading a gun and pointing at it before it can touch this post #it hasn't died out either i see it on twitter all the time in the most ANNOYING ways possible i am TIRED #esp bc they're actually doing medusa a narrative disservice like congrats! you made it worse! stop telling me it's better!!!!)

yall like to pretend that "don't split up" is the most obvious rule in any horror scenario, but what's the alternative? stick together and cooperate ? to find a solution? in a life-or-death situation??? babe surely you have been in enough group projects to guess how that shit ends

#honestly would prefer to try to strike a work-study deal with the Killer #rather than team up with your average group of horror movie characters #listen. the Killer has their shit together. they've planned this. they have clear goals. they have tools. they have a timeline. #whereas the So-Called Protagonists decided it would be 'fun' to get drunk in a cabin in the woods with no cell reception #honestly i'm siding with the Killer on this one. at some point that's fair game. ethically sourced murder victims

they don't want you to know this but having a bed full of stuffed animals in your twenties actually increases your overall quality of life

fucking shit here's another one

danny is heir apparent to the realms, and while he cannot be summoned as he has not been crowned yet, he can still receive gifts.

bear with me

as he is heir apparent, his will is mirrored by the infinite realms. so in the middle of English class, as he's staring at Mr. Lancer, his deep, resonating thought is

"Fuck man I don't get any of this, I need like, a really good English tutor."

meanwhile, in the batcave, constantine goes fucking rigid and stares at Red Hood, who he just knows that the High King wants for some reason or the other.

"Hood, were you aware that the High King of the Infinite Realms wants you handed to him on a silver platter?"

"What."

meanwhile all over the world English professors and teachers and straight A students are going missing and turning up in Amity of all places.

cultists are confused because like, normally the King of Death wants cheeseburgers and frenchfries, but now it wants people? weird but alright, they'll send over people they guess.

#dpxdc #dcxdp #dp x dc #dc x dp #danny phantom #batman #john constantine #mr lancer #danny is so confused #why are all these strange people showing up in amity #why are they all English professors #is clockwork doing this #is this clockwork being passive aggressive #danny tries to study hamlet harder but it's still dumb to him #he doesn't get it #one of the english professors notices him staring at the same page for thirty minutes #now they're trying to help #it's not helping #they're explaining shit on a college level #danny is not quite there #prompt

Me: hm, I want something to put on the TV as background noise... Huh. Looks like YouTube is recommending something called The Last Unicorn. That's perfect, it's probably some old shitty animation that has aged poorly! I can watch it ironically!

Me, 2 hours later as the credits roll: *crying, cheering, buying the book, composing the songs*

Me, 2 weeks later: So I have compiled all of the quotes from the book that I think could make good tattoos, and also, HOW HAVE I NEVER LEARNED ABOUT HOW THE LAST UNICORN FUCKING SLAPS??? This gay-ass little fairytale fed my soul! Watered my crops! Transed my gender! Can't believe I heard of this story from youtube recommendations, of all places!!

#original #the last unicorn #tlu #peter s beagle #molly gru #schmendrick #schmendrick the magician #two of my favorite characters in anything right there in the center of the story! and I'm glad I saw the film first! #my reading ability has diminished due to trauma disability etc. but it seems like having a visual reference actually really helped! #no wonder i only ever want to read fan fic! turns out reading is not actually Superior to other types of Storytelling. it's just different. #to say otherwise is snobbishness I have been eminently guilty of in my life! #but like it is easier for me to consume tv and movies and that is fine actually. also that's why I'm doing a graphic novel lol #because i wanted to make something i would actually be able to read if i found it at a library. altho the audio book IS gonna be bomb #the audiobook is for visually impaired readers and anyone who wants or needs it! accessible stories for everyone! yeah!! #my gender was already transed but now I've gained an ADDITIONAL gender! which one? I'll never tell 😘 #i am so powerful i have so much fuckin gender. my wife has no gender. and she is equally as powerful. #and also she has STUDIED THE BLADE #mostly zoro's blades from One Piece #normally YouTube recommends me shit movies like idiocracy or smth this is like if every day ur cat brought you a piece of rotten food and #then one day it brings you a BEAUTIFULLY ANIMATED TALE FEATURING MY BELOVED TWINK FUCK-UP WIZARD FRIEND AND MY ALL-TIME HOMEGIRL MOLLY GRU #and also it's soft and beautiful and funny and fucking weird!! i wrote melodies to the songs in the books on my ukulele

Gentile leftists, this is a PSA, and I am begging you to listen. Sharing claims that Jews aren’t indigenous to the land of Israel, that Jews don’t come from the Middle East, and/or that the Zionist movement wasn’t created in response to centuries of antisemitism & genocide is fringe revisionist history with a long antisemitic history. These aren’t anti-imperialist or anti-colonial stances. They are just antisemitic conspiracy theories.

And on the flip side, acknowledging the simple fact that Jews are indigenous to the region currently occupied by Israel & Palestine does not imply any opinion about the modern states of Israel & Palestine, their governments, or the conflict in the region. This post is not voicing support for Zionism or the state of Israel. This is literally just historical fact: both Jews and Palestinians are indigenous to the region where modern day Israel & Palestine are.

If you make this about the politics or conflicts of the modern states of Israel or Palestine—if you comment or send me asks to that effect—you will be blocked.

#please share #the amount of leftists shitting the bed by sharing this antisemitic shit is genuinely terrifying #israel #palestine #leftist #jumblr #judaism #history #holocaust and genocide studies #genocide studies #jewish history #jewish studies
