[inkskinned]

one of the things about being an educator is that you hear what parents want their kids to be able to do a lot. they want their kid to be an astronaut or a ballerina or a politician. they want them to get off that damn phone. be better about socializing. stop spending so much time indoors. learn to control their own temper. to just "fucking listen", which means to be obedient.

one of the things i learned in my pedagogy classes is that it's almost always easier to roleplay how you want someone to act. it's almost always easier to explain why a rule exists, rather than simply setting the rule and demanding adherence.

i want my kids to be kind. i want them to ask me what book they should read next, and i want to read that book with them so we can discuss it. i want my kid to be able to tell me hey that hurt my feelings without worrying i'll punish them. i want my kid to be proud of small things and come running up to me to tell me about them. i want them to say "nah, i get why this rule exists, but i get to hate it" and know that i don't need them to be grateful-for-the-roof-overhead while washing the dishes. i want them to teach me things. i want them to say - this isn't safe. i'm calling my mom and getting out of this. i want them to hear me apologize when i do fuck up; and i want them to want to come home.

the other day a parent was telling me she didn't understand why her kid "just got so angry." this woman had flown off the handle at me.

my dad - traditional catholic that he is - resents my sentiment of "gentle parenting". he says they'll grow up spoiled, horrible, pretentious. granola, he spits.

i am going to be kind to them. i am going to set the example, i think. and whatever they choose become in the meantime - i'm going to love them for it.

Rip Charles Rowland we will never get to see you make Edwin a flustered mess.

Rip Charles Rowland we will never get to see you become a flustered mess yourself when you try making Edwin become a flustered mess.

Rip Edwin Payne we will never get to see you flirting back when you are more comfortable with your sexuality now and turning Charles into a flustered mess back.

Rip Charles Rowland we will never get to see you exploring your sexuality and realising you love Edwin.

Rip payneland we will never get to see you getting together.

Rip Crystal Palace we will never know how you will react to the two old-people-love-sick-teenagers Edwin and Charles.

Quick summary of some things Phil said a bit ago in his stream because I probably won't get around to transcribing things or posting the clips:

3h 12m - Phil says Monday was very sad, and says he had a “long sleep he probably won’t wake up from” on QSMP

3h 28m 30s - Phil talks about the Eggs saying goodbye more and talks about how he knew ahead of time, but wasn’t sure they were doing it that day. He feels bad that Pac didn’t know.

3h 30m - Ama says they turned into crows (then goes the angst route and says they're all dead)

3h 31m - Phil reiterates that they had a long sleep that they won’t wake up from.

 3h 39m - Phil says he’s not sure if he’ll log on anymore because he likes how they ended things.

3h 44m - Phil reacts to Pac, Mike, and Richarlyson’s death. He says he feels bad about Pac’s reaction and wants to give him a hug. He says he was holding back tears when he, Lullah, and Chayanne were saying goodbye, and this is why he keeps his webcam off when doing that.

3h 50m - He says they were lucky knowing ahead of time and being able to say goodbye the way they wanted, unlike some of the other Egg admins.

3h 53m - Kristin says two crows landed on their roof after that stream (as if symbolizing Chayanne and Lullah) and Phil shows a gif of them on stream.

It honestly baffles me that some people are so casually dismissive of animals' feelings. Istg some ppl only see pets like toys and are barely able to hide it
