MISTAKES WERE MADE

loom: warped and genders: transed 👍🏳️‍⚧️

10:22 : apparenly i messed up :(. my post that i scheduled didnt frickin save but wtv lol. yesterday was pretty cool bc my mom came with me to band (being deadnamed wasnt fun but whatever) and i was laughing at her hahahah. i also had my sax lesson yesterday and my teacher basically layed into me real hard :( about how i need to actually apply myself and practice like (as he said) "as long as it takes for you to get it" (3 hours lol). i feel like he actually knocked some sense into me.

2:38 : so to finish my rant from earlier, since dr wits knocked some sense into me, i went home relazed for like an hour and then i practiced my saxophone even more (1 more hour). it was an okay night. i ate some good food and just felt generally content. i have chosen a solo (for solo & ensemble) and i really really like it. im excited to learn it. also i am in chemistry and i hate it. im dying. this teacher doesnt even teach us bruh, but im so smart i figure it all out suuuuupppeerrrr fast :) . i have so much stuff to do but i can get it done, imma use my planner and do everything that i need to do :) .

I HAD THE BEST WEEK (11/28/22)

9:25 : okay so thanksgiving week right? i got the week off and my band got to go to *REDACTED*. i had so much fun. oh my GOD. so first day we arrived after literally pulling an all nighter and spending the whole day with my bf. we had to stay in this ballroom waiting for the 2nd flight to come in and everyone was sleeping but i literally couldnt fall asleep so i was just like walking around playing games with the kids that were awake. near the time we were released to go to our rooms i was playing my teacher in supersmash and i beat the CRAP out of him. i also beat the upperclassmen and everytime they died before i did they would say “thats bc you were just on the outside of the fight” (which was not true). it was so fun in there. i played mario with another kid and cards against humanity with percussion. i even played ninja for a whie. after that we went to our rooms and just chilled unpacked and slept. then the next day we went on this skyscraper and it was awesome seeing the city from all the way up there. it was super scary but so insanely fun.

Amazon’s casting choices don’t reflect the true racial diversity in Tolkien’s works and are focused on tokenism over real efforts to tackle the flaws in the text and make an inclusive vision of Arda

Amazon’s one major POC actress is playing a role that canonically involves her throne and her power being stolen from her by a genocidal colonizer who wants to exterminate the religious minority she’s part of

Amazon fired their Tolkien consultant and their unsafe set conditions caused the injuries of stuntpeople

Amazon as a company is unethical, directly opposed to progressive causes, and openly emotionally manipulating viewers to get them to watch the show

Amazon has done more real harm to actual people of color and other marginalized groups than their efforts to include nonwhite actors in relatively small or stereotypical roles can address

Amazon’s promotional materials for this show treat fans of color as props to further their agenda

REPOST THIS ANYWHERE YOU LIKE AS OFTEN AS YOU LIKE.

to all my researchers, students and people in general who love learning: if you don't know this already, i'm about to give you a game changer

connectedpapers

the basic rundown is: you use the search bar to enter a topic, scientific paper name or DOI. the website then offers you a list of papers on the topic, and you choose the one you're looking for/most relevant one. from here, it makes a tree diagram of related papers that are clustered based on topic relatability and colour-coded by time they were produced!

for example: here i search "human B12"

i go ahead and choose the first paper, meaning my graph will be based around it and start from the topics of "b12 levels" and "fraility syndrome"

here is the graph output! you can scroll through all the papers included on the left, and clicking on each one shows you it's position on the chart + will pull up details on the paper on the right hand column (title, authors, citations, abstract/summary and links where the paper can be found)

you get a few free graphs a month before you have to sign up, and i think the free version gives you up to 5 a month. there are paid versions but it really depends how often you need to use this kinda thing.
