No Thoughts But I Have That Old Vine Stuck In My Head Of "i Want To See My Little Boy, Here He Comes"

DEAR EDUCATIONALLY NEGLECTED HOMESCHOOLERS

I’ve gathered some resources and tips and tricks on self-educating after educational neglect. This is only what I did and what I know helped me. I’m about to graduate college with honors after having no education past the age of 9. I wouldn’t be here without the following. Everything is free, and at/well above the standard for education in the US.

The holy grail: Khan Academy. Nearly every course you could take is available here, in order and by grade level. Their open-source free courses rival some of the college classes I’ve taken. This is your most solid resource.

For inattentive types: Crash Course offers a variety of courses that are snappy, entertaining, and extremely rewarding. They work for my ADHD brain. They also have college prep advice, which is essential if you’re looking to go to higher education with no classroom experience.

To catch up on your reading: There are certain books that you may have read had you gone to school that you’ve missed out on. This list is the most well-rounded and can fill you in on both children’s books and classic novels that are essential or at least extremely helpful to be familiar with. You can find a majority of these easily at a local library (and some for free in PDF form online low key). There are a few higher level classics in here that I’d highly recommend. If it doesn’t work for you, I’d always recommend asking your local librarian.

*BE AWARE* The book list I recommend suggests you read Harry Potter books, and given their transphobic author you may or may not want to read them. If you choose to, I’d highly recommend buying the books secondhand or borrowing from a library to avoid financially supporting a living author with dangerous and damaging views.

TEST, TEST, TEST: Again, Khan Academy is your go-to for this. I don’t personally like standardized testing, but going through SAT and ACT courses was the best way I found to really reveal my gaps so that I could supplement.

Finally: As much as you can, enjoy the process. Education can be thrilling and teach you so much about yourself, and help shape your view of the world. It can get frustrating, but I’d like to encourage you that everyone can learn. No pace is the perfect pace, and your learning style is the right learning style for you. In teaching yourself, be patient, be kind, and indulge in the subjects you really enjoy without neglecting others. You are your teacher. Give yourself what others chose not to.

100 Books to Read Before You Die

It's morbid, but have you ever wondered what books to read before you die? Start with this list of 100 must-read books.

sonic doodles bc ive been unwell about them

shoutout to camila, literally could not have handled things the way she did, ella es una titana y nadie puede convencerme de lo opuesto

ykw i'm gonna add to this.

agent stone and mikey meet up regularly to exchange recipes and how they tweak it for their loved ones cause they have peculiar food quirks.

raph likes to tag along because he gets to try the new stuff they make.

leo likes to take the time to mess with g.u.n, especially director rockwell cause he doesn't like how she's quick to turn on anthropomorphic animals with powers (majority of his family falls in that description) and she's just fun to annoy. he does small pranks like moving her stuff around, making her trip up a bit every now and then, moved all her furniture an inch to the left.

they eventually do meet the wachowskis, and raph loves when maddie lets him tag along to her workplace to see the small animals. leo and mikey like to ask for rides on the cruiser from tom and ask about being a sheriff. donnie likes to compare notes with maddie about new physiology of life forms not studied as he had helped leo learn about their own mutant physique and maddie is basically on her own to figure out her own kids' biology. (tails had helped maddie out a bit but he's better at machines than people, and while donnie is better at plants than people in comparison, he does have really good points of how he went about with himself and his own brothers that help her a lot)

there was also that moment of-

"oh you're aliens too?"

"nah, we were turtles mutated with super soldier ooze created by a warring warrior scientist yokai who wanted to wage war against all humankind because of some prophecy he misinterpreted."

"..."

"don't worry tho! barry's chill now!"

"HE THREW ME OFF A ROOF"

"THAT WAS YEARS AGO, LEO, LET IT GO, HE APOLOGIZED!"

sonic and leo after seeing how much they have in common become pranking menaces and nobody is ever safe. raph and knuckles are sparring partners (duh) but knuckles does talk to mikey a lot about his tribe and mikey helps him work out some emotions. donnie and tails obviously talk shop but donnie does help tails feel reassured cause they both have things that make them think at times that maybe they're too different and need to make up for it somehow.

meeting splinter was. an experience.

"your dad is a rat?!"

"SONIC! MANNERS!"

splinter laughs and just goes "you're very much like my blue, furry blue"

in my head, splinter calls sonic, knuckles, and tails: furry blue, furry red, and furry yellow, respectively.

maddie and tom have talks with splinter about how it is raising boys with enough power and/or smarts to destroy the world if they wanted. tom was also a lou jitsu fan. arrive at any conclusions you wish but i know that at least is a fact, don't fight me on that.

i think i only want to see a rottmnt x sonic (live action) crossover because i would love to see donnie and robotnik meeting each other.

they would love to hate each other, is how at least i think it would go.

like i just imagine them seeing each other and their fight or flight instincts kicking it, and its immediately fight, but with knowledge.

"what's the 99th digit of pi?!"

"longest word in the dictionary?!"

"this is my FULLY SENTIENT robot ai son, shelldon"

"THESE are my beautiful egg babies"

"i have combined mysticism and science!"

"i have 5 phds and fluent in several languages!"

then they also meet up later for coffee (made by agent stone and michelangelo respectively) and actually compare notes like colleagues, but as soon as the coffee is done and they leave, they go back to hating each other

This year, on the 31 March, we lost Gilbert Baker, gay artist and creator of the gay pride flag. Today we would celebrate his 66th birthday. Let’s remember him as the wonderful person he was.

CoCC, if you will.

FIC: Harry Potter and the Great Custody Battle by dajgen (ao3)

from up-down, left-right: peter - jason, dick - tim, damian - cass

i'm actually obsessed with this fic, and when the author updated with the last chapter, my hand got possessed. so... here i am *confetti*

i personally love the fact that CoCC was the acronym, and the one to lead the discussions was dick. perfection fr.

i, initially, had more of this done, but the file got corrupted for some reason so i had to remake most of it. i'm still working on cass and damian, not to mention cleaning up a bit more and shading. i'll post an update when i do! hope ya enjoyed, be sure to got read the fic (it's really good), and fingers crossed the author updates again soon!

not me trying to casually rewatch some old dan and phil videos when i notice their outfits

and ofc my first thought was

"oh lol theyre ladychat coded" like someone send me to my room or smth idk

HEEHEEHEE….
