Nurturing 21st Century Skills

Preparing Students for Success in the Modern World / Pregătirea elevilor pentru succes în lumea modernă In the rapidly evolving landscape of the 21st century, education must adapt to equip students with the skills they need to thrive in a dynamic and interconnected world. The traditional model of education, centered on rote memorization and content delivery, is no longer sufficient. Instead,…

tell me you've never read the buccaneers without telling me you've never read the buccaneers

girl help they're girlbossifying and decontextualizing Edith Wharton !!

what is this ~~~oooh the fieeestty american girls #disrupting #subverting the corset-wearing english aristocracy with their Bold And Daring New American Ways~~ when the buccaneers is literally a social commentary of how wealthy turn-of-the-century americans were desperate to elevate their social standing by enmeshing themselves as part of the english aristocracy and the misery their daughters experience after marrying and assimilating into the aristocracy. it is, and I cannot stress this enough, an exploration of nationalism and class anxieties, not some schlocky Bridgerton-esque ~spunky heroine romcom

you might hate nigel bruce’s watson being a dim witted comedy character. i however think it’s genius. rathbone’s holmes is giving insane levels of autistic burnout and every quip or fumble or inability to do something normally on watson’s part just makes holmes’ deadpan delivery or deeply viscerally irritated state of being or need to Just Get The Job Done that much more obvious. the consistent formula of holmes sending watson off on a little task while he speedruns a case and pops up at the end to debrief with watson like ‘they’ve been apprehended i really need a pipe and my robe please do not talk to me the entire way home’ all the while watson is still trying to figure out what realm he’s in is priceless. “i’ll retire to sussex and keep bees” after watson asks forty questions after he solves the case? burntout autistic person threatening to move to the middle of nowhere with a pet in some form with zero mention of another person? fork found in kitchen. holmes can sense watson fucking something up like it’s a sixth sense and has to extensively mentally prepare himself for whatever he’s about to experience

Hey bestie I have an idea. Audra v mmdiva winner poll to determine the true queen of musicals? You’re welcome or I’m sorry, as you see fit (maybe both).

Sorry, they're too busy kissing to hear you, but I can ask them once they're done. We might be waiting a while though.

"I've known a lot of people, girlie."

This morning, instead of laboring for capital as required, I was daydreaming about how — canonically & in contrast to the typical fanfic portrayal — Hob never actually becomes less of a jerk. And my brain was arguing like Well, he was kind of sweet with Gwen, wasn't he? So I went back and read that last scene at the Ren Faire &... I mean, no, he becomes morally a better person, but he's still kinda a jerk. And I 100% forgot about him calling Death GIRLIE!

😳

I mean, oh boy, are you lucky she's so understanding, Hob!

drawing is difficult for me and writing is something i’m considerably better at sooooo…

written list of ideas i have for a humanoid design for bellum bc i think im finally zeroing in on something after a few uhhh years of brainstorming

(if you read this and have like. some ideas you want to share or some possible [constructive] criticisms go ahead and share them if you want)

Not actually properly humanoid; he can take on a fully human look but it isn’t his default and requires a bit more energy

Therefore, he usually lacks ears (they’re just. holes), finger or toe nails, a navel, an adam’s apple, or basically any kind of human detail that could be easily overlooked at first glance (maybe leaning into a bit uncanny?). He does have these traits when he actually puts the effort in to pass as human

The traits shared between his usual humanoid form and the more explicitly human form are: an eyepatch over his left eye (he doesn’t have a left eye or eye socket in either form. it’s like one-eyed willy in goonies), yellow hair (actually the same color as link’s), a lack of a nose (effectively like it’s been torn off, just leaving the nostril lines/openings), and a lot of large scars pretty much everywhere (some are just normal looking scars, like one across his face that looks like items from a wound that cost him his nose, while others vaguely resemble the markings on his body when he’s in demon/normal form), so either way he’s going to draw attention

In his usual form (more obviously nonhuman) his left eye is his usual black and orange eye, and he has sharp teeth, but he can switch those to appear more human if he’d like

He’s below the average height and appears to be only slightly muscular, logically more built for flexibility or with the build of a dancer, but his demonic strength remains, though his speed and flexibility is limited by the form he takes

His hair is a mess and mostly short, and if he’s in the more demonic-leaning human form, it’s usually got streaks of black (black is in there in some way, how it appears is still a wip) in all of the yellow

Clothing can vary but most commonly he chooses something loose and casual, he doesn’t particularly value his clothes and doesn’t really have anything to hide and so pick stuff that won’t drag him down or get snagged in a fight, flimsy loose clothes are good

Other times he’ll wear boots and gauntlets and gloves in a more serious context, usually opting for designs and materials similar to what he gives his phantoms, he doesn’t fully lean into the phantom-style of armor or fighting unless he needs to focus on defense, however

In either of his human forms, he’s still capable of fighting (and in his more demonic form he can use his tentacles, the come from his back), and doesn’t so much as have a fighting style as he generally just kills with whatever seems most convenient or entertaining at the time, ranging from creating a weapon for himself to use to just bashing a guy’s skull in with his bare hands

He’s very violent but can talk just fine and can be just about eloquent if he wants but usually leans into being more chaotic and acting the part of a brutal ruffian if the job can be completed using force, so a lot of the time he doesn’t even bother with looking explicitly human most of the time

He greatly prefers his demonic form and uses the human form for specific reasons, and can’t actually use it if he’s too weak

Love how at the start of the James Somerton section Hbomb basically went "A lot of people are afraid to call out Somerton because he'll accuse them of homophobia. But I fear not God nor man, and I'm as bi as the day is long."
