#as a student wearing something

In the Philippines, you have very limited choices if you want a good quality education. Young ones (primary school to high school) would fare better if they choose: (1) a science school, (2) a private Catholic-run school, or (3) an international school.
Options 1 and 3 are mostly available to those who can afford it and can maintain high grades. Option 2 is the middle-class choice and no, you prolly won't find a private school that is not affliated with a religious entity in the Philippines.
If you are a uni student (like King), your choices are even more limited if you want to have a good career after college. Basically, employers would automatically hire graduates from any of the big four unis: University of the Philippines (state uni), Ateneo de Manila University (run by Jesuit priests), De La Salle University (run by Christian Brothers), and University of Santo Tomas (run by Dominican priests).
So, you can imagine the dress code in most schools 😅 I think only the state uni is safe from dress codes but only because they are supposed to accomodate those who cannot afford to buy fashionable clothes. But even then, you'll get plenty of side eye 😅😅😅

weekly navel-gazing update: this week is most consequential event in long time. keyword search: "scared" "is it ok to be scared" "beaten and tortured by the ogre"




#old director of south asian studies just talked to me to let me know theyll be joining me to sit on my panel while i present two projects#in two days and intimated they could discuss supervising potential grad work or dissertations despite funding freezes#she is respected used to do the gender studies program coordinating too#and their TA PhD student super severe standoffish goth walked up to me in front of seminar to thank me for my portfolio of essays#on poverty homelessness and environmental stuff and said it was TOUCHING and i should be proud and shell also be attending#after the director of student research invited them#and research director happens to specialize in borderlands and caribbean and empire and she emailed me to say#she left me a signed copy of her book with a really lovely message#and a protein bar because she knows i have diabetes and other illnesses but bike like ten miles a day between work and school#and then she emailed me and offered car ride if i wanted#and i was touched and surprised and now im like uh oh this is important i guess#and like uh oh i really shouldve taken the week off work or something why am i working forty hours for this#well precarious rent i guess but still wish i hadnt spent past four months just going to retail job and had instead hung out more with#faculty and hope i didnt waste my chance to get to know them#also is im just going to wear that outfit to conference hope not perceived as too informal#no family whatsoever so there was no one like interested or checking in on me to like help me see that the developments were significant#a year ago i was nothing but nightshift retail with NO prospects and rapidly worsening health#and there wasnt even a glimmer of hope for possibility of positive social environment let alone school

a character’s canon outfit hates to see me coming
#when’s the last time i drew marinette’s blazer i have no idea. i won’t be#i see adrien and marinette and i zap them with my outfit ray#when i zap adrien i just put him in something i could pull right now from my closet😭#big jacket and stripey shirt and converse be upon ye#and i put marinette in something that the very cool art students would wear#outfits….put them in outfits……#ml#anna rambles

Getting my PhD just so ugly white men can’t pull their doctorate out of their asses mid email argument with me when I call them out for being a total dick
#petals talks#In all reality they just had being called a dickhead by a 5’1 woman#who wears pink frilly dresses and signs her emails with Taylor swift quotes.#like sit down Matthew you have a PhD in economics#literally insane to force a student to turn something in when their dad died#but please tell me how you’re setting them up for success in the real world#and not about how you’re being a dick just because you’re on a first year teaching power trip

Decided to draw him in my style since I'm still struggling with the show's style, heh. I should probably sit down to do a proper study one of these days. But I'm happy with how this turned out! Still getting the hang of using an iPad (I was gifted one in my art absence on here, so no more phone drawing for me unless I'm posting old stuff).
I also have a doodle page that I did before this, and a comic:
Image #1 text:
"Okay, either Sixer used his nerd brain to make some science glasses, or all those punches ta the head are finally catching up to me."
*Can almost see clearly.*
*Gave him my astigmatism*
*Drew him in my style*
Image #2
"???"
"You forgot the eight, Sixer."
"Oh, thank you, Stanley!"
"Wait, WHAT."
#gravity falls#gravity falls fan art#gf#gf fanart#gravity falls stanford#gravity falls stanley#stanley pines#stanford pines#grunkle stan#grunkle ford#sea grunks#fanart#cryptic art#cryptic-underground#stan teaching himself advance physics and engineering is something i cannot stop thinking about!#like ive tried to do it and i can empathize#and he was doing it alone without any sort of resources except for journel 1 for 30 YEARS#and he was known to be the “smart twin” either#i hc him to have been a C+ to B- sort of student before giving up because nothing he did mattered anyway#he wad still the “dumb one” to his father#still the screw up#the “extra stan”#him quitting wearing glasses for years probably didn’t help with classes either#and i love thinking about how ford would react to stan giving him tips on his projects#and BEING RIGHT TOO#and realizing that it meant that stan built the portal to get him back#(i don't think originally he put too much thought in it or that stan conned others into building it for him)#stan would still call him the “smart ine” outta the two which breaks ford's heart#especially after learning the truth#my art

okay new freddie anon 🤗🤗 hi saints 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
I need to know more about freddie, srsly.

well. he’s easily my favorite out of all of them (board)
i guess it’s important to me that you guys know freddie is a good 8-10 years older than theo… he’s a stock broker in his early 30s who pretty much exclusively goes after scandalously younger trophy boyfriends. to stomp on
#SAVE ME diabolical femme tops. save me exploitative & demanding femme tops#theo is the exception though. that’s the dipshit 20-something college student who is changing his worldview#and who is really not well behaved enough to be a trophy boyfriend anyway. and isn’t remotely presentable. and is always wearing those#grimy band shirts. and who irritates him on purpose. and who never listens. and who is impossible to faze (infuriating!!)#and who is the love of his life or whatever. and who throws him around#freddie & theo#saintsocs

Series 13 premiere Ben is honestly making a statement in that outfit I don’t care that it’s brown.
#literally seeing what Ben chooses to wear on any given occasion is like spinning a roulette wheel#will he look like a dad on vacation at Disneyland?#will he look like a twenty something non-binary art student drop out?#will he look like a French woman?#jet lag the game#ben doyle

it kinda makes me sad that ortho doesn't get to have a favorite food so he can't match everyone else in that new merch set with all the "character + favorite food" stickers :( i mean i know he's a robot but it's literally been canon since his first birthday card that idia can add a food-intake attachment to his gear so he can eat, so actually my question is how does that work? can he not really taste the food he eats with it? because if it does allow him to taste it then i don't know why he wouldn't use something like that during the culinary crucible or when he visits deuce's hometown, or all the time after book 6 tbh, except that maybe the writers think him not being able to eat is funnier/more interesting, or there's some other limitation to it that wasn't mentioned...?? and also, now that i think about it i don't see how anything you could add to ortho's gear would allow him to digest food so like what even happens to it LMAO
#twisted wonderland#ortho shroud#idk there's just something so fascinating and sad at the same time to me about this#and the way that he can't wear normal clothes either but he can use designs like his union bday gear to PRETEND#man. i really wonder what his favorite food would be if he had one...#it'd be funny if he had the most weirdass taste like amethyst from steven universe putting motor oil on her sandwiches#also this reminds me there's also a merch set of everyone with items associated with their clubs#but ortho wasn't a student yet so he just had computer screens or something :(

perpetually thinking about suguru geto.
#forgot haunting the jjk narrative he haunts me too#like my god what a character#everything abt it makes me soo emotional dear lord#im particularly rn dwelling on his lil group. not the cult but like the twins and the sorcerers he had with him#it tells a lot that women. the queer coded characters. and the one black guy in the series are all part#of his crew#and they're not treated as subordinates or smth#they were very much a community#and regardless if they agreed with his beliefs or not#i do imagine he provided a some sort of safe space#especially in comparison to the conservative nature of jujutsu high#how he teared up in jjk0 watching them work together. it cements that his goal#fundamentally is about the safety and protection of sorcerers#he in his own fucked up way he provided a safe space for these other marginalised communities#something even gojo failed to do#even on a metaphorically level#his more restrictive clothes and hairstyle as a student#an allegory for repression#vs how the minute he defects he wears an oversized sweater and his hair is down#then the monk clothes which are very flowy and his hair is more wild#how even he is more expresssive and like more at ease yk even if not happy.#sigh. i love him.#my wife comeback the kids miss you#myle yaps abt jjk#suguru geto#jjk

the way teenagers’ minds are just this direct channel to romance. hilarious and also something I understand on a PROFOUND level.
#every time I display any kind of emotion or any kind of interesting thought#or anything that in some measure charms them/amuses them#they’re like. instantly contemplating my chances of finding romance#and/or suggesting that that is in fact the thing to be gotten#like obviously there is just teenage/student nosiness and curiosity but there’s also this thing where they’re like#something about you is lovable. is someone in love with you#AND I HAVE THE SAME STREAK#that I am learning to outgrow and expand beyond#so that the actual focus of my life is not just romance as the ultimate measure of that which is worthy#(if that makes sense)#but I have the same instinct as a romantically-coded person#like. I’ll wear a cute outfit or be funny about Shakespeare and they’re like ‘wait some guy should be appreciating this’#and alkskekekekekejeje t b h !!!!#also when I say students I mean a few students here and there who verbalize it#not all of them obviously#teaching tag#just reflecting because it’s funny

y'all can we normalize not taking pictures of people or their things in public spaces without their permission and posting them online??? Your borbo being on my bag does not give you permission to sneak pictures of me.
#saw something on twitter and it irked me#but like this literally has happened to me lmfao lmfao lmfao#like my friends and i were at the mall and i was wearing my lolita set and they were wearing other alt fashions#and a group of OTHER COLLEGE STUDENTS were very poorly sneaking pictures of us and snickering#like dude just let people exist.#this tweet thankfully wasn't in bad faith and didn't show the person but like#people do not exist to be shared on your social media like dude. stop.

Insane how my professor took one look at me and immediately clocked me as queer. It wasn't my clothes, I was wearing a hoodie, a t-shirt, and a pair of jeans, and cowboy boots
And yet every time he mentions LGBT and supporting them and making sure we know his class is a safe space, he's looking at me. He's brought it up more than once per class and every time he's making eye contact with me specifically. I've been paying attention he only does it with me how the fuck does he know
#his sister is a lesbian and married#and his wife is a therapist who specializes in taking care of lgbt kids#and he's very open minded and student first type guy#and like we've got a classmate who's more visibly queer than me#maybe i look too straight and that's the problem#like “ah yeah that one's compensating”#which isn't even the case i'm just autistic and need to wear a identical v neck t-shirts every day or i'll have sensory issue anxiety#but the point stands he definitely figured something out#and i know for sure it would be safe to be like hey can you use they/them for me in class but not anywhere else since i'm not out#but on the off chance he used it outside class i couldn't risk it#not when i live off campus and rely on family to drive me to school#the college saga

#oh my goD could my mother stop stealing all my fucking stuff for even 1 fucking week jfc#im gonna scream#she thinks that bc she's the one paying the majority of the rent and is technically my caregiver bc im too disabled to do certain chores etc#that she is simoly entitled to everything in the apartment and can do whatever she wants#steals my food steals my drinks steals my products steals my laundry card etc#now she's stealing my clothes and pyjamas#the fuck dude#i have severe skin allergies and have very selective clothing i can wear w/o a painful reaction#and now she's just. taking that too#the same way she takes the select few foods that don't set off my issues or allergies and steals the drinks that keep my blood sugar up#and steals the unscented hypoallergenic products i have to use#it never fuckin ends this woman is so self-absorbed and arrogant i rly cannot handle it sometimes (most times)#the irony is that she's a teacher and regularly works with kindergarteners who can understand 'don't touch what isn't yours'#and gives regular lectures to her students of all ages about respecting other ppl's belongings and never assuming u can take something#gives a big ol spiel about attentive listening and boundaries and respect on a daily fuckin basis from 8 am to 8 pm for her 2 teaching job#then comes home and immediately disregards that to take everything that isnt hers / disrespect my belongings and space#and yell at me when i tell her not to / get mad at her for doing it#ma'am.#ur 5 yr olds understand this. so do ur 8 yr olds. u r 60 MF YEARS OLD WHY CAN U NOT COMPREHEND THIS#nah actually the worst part is that she *does* understand it. she simply doesn't care#she would never do this to anyone else just me. bc im disabled and a burden and she hates having me depend on her for things.#idk if its vindictive or bc she feels like i owe her for basic care and decency or if she just enjoys lashing out like a petty bitch#i stopped trying to figure it out a long time ago#all i'm fucking asking is for her to STOP STEALING MY SHIT#is that so much to beg for. is it#ugHdjddjsk#someone find me a wall i need to bash my head against it#(or maybe hers. that might be better)#ask to tag#negative

I love that you think 911 was for gen z lol
i've never watched a single episode of it but the outward projection of everyone i see talking/posting about it does paint a very vivid picture of a "blorbo"-ism infecting the fandom. which is like, fine, like, literally have all the fun you want i am (and neither are my personal posts on my personal blog) not stopping you. i just think it's like if those mom shows tried to appeal to people who wear shipping pins on their backpacks & so having really cunty passive aggressive posts about people "not getting it" is very.. you can't sit with us, but the sitting in question is sitting at the losers' table. like it's not experimental art it's not twin peaks it's not prestige television it's literally a copganda-tinged show about hot people. you know?
#1 800 ARE YOU ASKING#sorry if my post upset you or something i just legit cannot accept the notion that#a tv show like that warrants anyone being 'heh.. i understand better than you 😏'#full disclosure i wear the scarlet letter as you guys do like i'm an art school student studying animation lol
