The Average Twitter Vs Tumblr Community Experience

Ok

I hate that thing some people do where it's like. "I left my wallet on the table to see if you'd say anything" or "I wanted to see if you'd wash the car if I stopped doing it"

Cause like

I dont know about anyone else

But I am perpetually hovering three inches above the strong subconscious belief that everyone knows what they're doing at all times except me, so if you change your normal patterns and I notice, then I will assume it is an intentional choice with a thought-out plan behind it and I will avoid interfering

And if I don't notice, because I won't, because why would I, because not much bothers me and if you don't say anything to indicate you are bothered then how would I KNOW

We are a very very dumb, stupid people

None of this is normal or natural. We'd do well to remember that.

The biggest misconception in public schools is that literary analysis is about proving you can be right or wrong about a book you read

Literary analysis isn’t about the book

It’s not even about being right

It’s about performing an investigation and presenting your case to the jury

It doesn’t matter if your defendant killed that guy or not. If you can convince the jury he didn’t, you’ve won

And the incredible life skill of spinning bulletproof bullshit out your ass with a handful of facts and a prayer is soooooooo much more valuable than anyone’s ever gonna tell you

Sometimes you have the day off so instead of being productive you make so odd didgital art you think your friends would find funny. And thats okay. They are wacky wavy inflatable tube men. with legs. who are also cactus. They sell cars in the dessert i suppose.

Just finished hamlet & had to share THIS

This may be a hot take, but as someone who has worked on around, and with both types of printers, 3D printers are so much better machines (at least in my opinion)! 3D printers just heat up shit and push it through a tube, whereas 2D printers are demon machines that summon text from an other dimensional portal and require the sacrifice of your first born. I have fought a 2d printer and literally ended up covered in blood and toner. I won but at what cost? Yes 3D printers are fire hazards a little bit sometimes, but so are most of my friends and colleagues. I’d take a 3D printer over a 2D any day of the week.

i feel like it says something about us as a species that somebody worked real hard to invent 3D printing when i think anyone who has ever used a printer would agree with me that we have not really gotten our arms around 2D printing yet. we’re getting ahead of ourselves.

I told my students they're allowed to be creative and don't have to be factual when writing about themselves in German because I keep getting questions like "what if I don't have roommates or what if I don't have hobbies" and I'm like guys just make something up! Have fun! I won't fact check you!

So now I am grading homework where a student is claiming to be from North Korea and his hobby is tax fraud
