Honestly I tried to get into Dora the explora but like media is supposed to be escapism for me and she keeps like asking me like wheres this wheres that and tbh its actually really stressful. Im not dealing with that
Really?
Nobody’s ever kissed or touched or even looked at me before due to my grotesque visage
I love it when the little kids I’m teaching online have complete and total misconceptions of what’s going on. So far, I’ve encountered the following:
1. I had been teaching a little girl for several months, when one day she said to me: “My mother says you’re a real person, not an app. If you’re a real person, show me your husband.”
2. I was about to end a class, but the little girl I was teaching didn’t want the class to end. She turned to her mom and asked if she could please watch one more episode. Turns out she was under the impression that I was a very interactive TV program.
3. I couldn’t find my marker in class today. The boy I was teaching was like, “What’s your apartment number? I’ll come up and help you find it!” The boy lives in China and I live in the United States. I guess most people he knows live in the same building as him, so he assumed I did too.
4. I had been teaching a kid for quite some time when I mentioned my age in class. She was like, “Wait, you’re an adult????” She’d thought I was twelve.
5. I’ve been teaching this 5-year-old boy from Turkey for a while. Upon coming back from a family vacation to the United States he greeted me with, “I looked for you EVERYWHERE while I was in America, but I couldn’t find you!!” Apparently, it was quite a cross country trip, because he described searching for me in landmarks from LA to New York. I reminded him that I’d moved to Poland, but he insisted that since I am American he should have definitely been able to find me in America.
Yes. Have YOU considered that sometimes working on hard things is both necessary and worthwhile?
I have never seen a more on point text post meme.

If you’re using Skype you should dump it and get Discord instead!
Pros:
- Cleaner, easier to navigate interface
- Free servers for more permanent group chat things (way easier to hop in and out of chats)
- You can actually have different nicknames on each server if you want
- Is actually well built and doesn’t make your computer yearn for death
Stuff coming down the pipeline soon according to devs:
- Video chat
- Linux client
Cons:
- All your friends aren’t on it
- But you can change that
Download it. It’s great and it’s only getting better. It’s aimed at gamers but it has nearly all the functionality of Skype and then some.
Since Discord first became a thing, it has added:
- friends lists
- group chats
- changeable statuses
- search function
and a hell of a lot more! Also this is a huge shout out to any of my friends who still use Skype – I don’t use it, I use Discord. Mail me and I’ll shoot you my details :)
- Also the audio quality is just way better and more consistent than Skype’s.
Discord uses it’s own servers to host calls instead of relying on a user host like skype :0

Average 2020s movie being "too political": girl power! quick background kiss between two gay extras! one single black guy!
Average "non-political" 70s movie: the government is hiding a global conspiracy that is warming the planet and will kill us all and also the cops are evil
em dash is so fucking sexy. puts her in a paragraph 8 times.
“X celebrity is the most beautiful woman in the world etc etc.” Uh no it’s my mom and also a random girl i saw while i was at work once
babe are u okay ur crying about closeness lines over time by olivia de recat again
This speaks to me so viscerally it hurts. It also helped me get modern art in general? Like. These are just lines…but they convey so much because of the words supplied. That’s awesome!
Like, I’m gonna be thinking about this one for a while now. I wonder about the lines of my own life and how tangled and lost it feels to try and understand but to think about slices of it…
Hmm… yeah, I really love this.
