Everyone should know the international sign for Help Me. Letβs make this famous!!
Interesting; I didn't know this was a thing.
Itβs apparently a thing, but itβs a very new thing, so it may need some help being known.

i think we should bring this back (with some amendments ofc) if we ever needed an "internet etiquette" for the younger generations, now is the moment to remind them. purity culture kills fandom
as well as the three laws of fandom:
Don't Like, Don't Read (DL;DR), Your Kink is not My Kink And That's OK (YKINMKATO) and Ship and Let Ship
π£ Purity culture kills fandom! π£
They shall be avenged.

abstract and modern art haters are sooo snobby like klein literally Created an entirely new pigment and then painted a canvas in a way where the brush strokes wouldn't be visible. the insinuation that people with no skill could reproduce that is so annoying because unless you are skilled at color mixing and painting you definitely couldnβt lmao
i hope it's okay to add this because i think it hits the nail directly on the head
Honestly, it's like picking up a book and saying "I know all these words, I can type, I could have written this" like there's no middle step between the technical ability and the finished work.
Don't get lost~

When you finally won the battle of opening up your WIP to edit but your brain is fighting you on touching the document so youβre in paralysis like
God, I remember when I started sixth form (last two years of high school in the UK, seen as a more university style learning environment) and the teachers kept complaining about how quiet we were during lessons.
We wouldnβt talk. Theyβd tell us to do something and weβd just sit there quietly and do it, until eventually they just said βhey, guys, itβs okay to chat while you work!β and then everybody would start talking.
One teacher described it as creepy.
And I just remember thinking, what the fuck did they expect to happen? Weβd all been taught from the age of four or five onwards that talking in class was bad. That if we did it, weβd be told off, or punished, or in some instances maybe the entire class would be punished along with us, just to make sure we really got the idea. It was a whole thing.
But now, because we were sixth-formers and therefore βgrown upsβ, we were suddenly expected to flip a switch and be able to talk as much as we liked? The whole reason we were in sixth-form was because we had worked hard, done well at school, and generally followed the rulesβ but still the teachers couldnβt understand why we didnβt just talk to each other.
Now Iβm at uni, and seminar tutors are having a similar problem. People will talk in seminars, but a lot of them will insist on raising their hands and waiting to be called upon first. βDonβt put your hands up, just shout at me!β the guy keeps saying. But they keep doing it anyway.
Like, I really donβt know how to tell these people that you canβt train somebody to act in one way for over half their lives, and then suddenly expect them to start acting differently just because the expectations have changed.
