if any other group of people other than white middle class parents were homeschooling en masse like IBP/Rodrigues type Christians, i can't help but feel people would be more mad about it.

like imagine if there was a movement for gay parents to take their kids out of school, isolate them from every aspect of society, and only teach them things written by Trixie Mattel (the gay equivalent to a pastor in my head). people would lose their shit and call it brainwashing and abuse and demand the government make more regulations to the education requirements.

but because they're white and straight and it's about Jesus, it's their "preference" and people are totally ok with 15 kids being so uneducated they can't write a cohesive sentence in their 20s.

No but how is Kuai Liang a pyromancer in the new game. Like how does that happen.

It's been weeks and I'm still not over it and just such a lazy way they put Hanzo's hat on Kuai Liang and said: here, this is Scorpion now.

Like I wouldn't mind Scorpion!Kuai Liang so much if it only made sense 😭😭😭

Why does he have Japanese-style armour. Because of Harumi? (And don't even get me started on pairing him with Harumi). Why does he fight with the Shirai Ryu techniques (Shirai Ryu doesn't exist yet?), when he's been raised in the Lin Kuei. WHY ARE OTHER SCORPIONS KUAI LIANG. Why do they have his voice and his face.

Do you know how to pray the Mojubá? Do you know how to pray in the morning? To greet the new day that arrives, asking for the blessing of your mother, father, mother of saint, of your ancestors, etc? It's important for us to have a repertoire of our own prayers, our people don't need to keep repeating the catechesis, for our Ancestors it was a mandatory act of colonization [...] I’m going to do a little bit of Ibase for you to add to your repertoire [...] so you can draw upon your own tradition. "I salute Olodumare, Lord of the day, I salute the East, I salute the West, I salute the North, I salute the South, I salute the Ancestors, I salute my Father, I salute my Mother, I salute my Father of Saint, I salute my Mother of Saint, I salute my Eldest Guide, I salute my Community, I salute my Head (Orí, Crown), I salute Oshún sengese oloya hun, I salute Yemoya Lady of the River Ogun, I salute Ogum Lord of the Universe, I salute Oya Oriri, I salute Exú lalu ogiri oko, I salute Xangó the one who bears the crown, I salute all Orixás, every single one of them, to them I give my salutations and reverence. Axé." That is the translation.

so I picked up the piano again after not touching it for a couple of years. I never properly learned music theory – I know a couple of basics, but not nearly enough – and I've made up my mind to properly learn the basics and maybe more. I know I might not need deep knowledge of music theory to learn a couple of songs on the piano but I am unable to half ass things lmao and also I want to properly do this, I think it's a beautiful instrument and it's worth the mental effort lol. but as with learning anything through the internet I'm preparing myself for a lot of confusion before it all becomes clear

It’s all “take care of your inner child!! Treat them the way you wanted to be treated years ago and it’ll help you heal!!” until said inner child is throwing a tantrum about having to go eat dinner

Alright everyone, I am a weak person. After relentless suggestions and pressure from all my friends and some of my family members I got my butt out of my chair and figured out how to turn my pridesaurs into actual stickers!

It was a longer process then it should have been, since I am very picky with quality. I tried several print shops in my area, all of which did not achieve the proper results, so I got myself a printer and cutting machine and oh man, I just love the results! Took me a lot of time and effort to learn and figure things out (testing different printing settings and sticker paper material) but I am very happy with how these little guys turned out!

If you would like to support my silly little dinosaur art, then you can buy any of these stickers from my Etsy shop, which I just set up recently. I am pretty new to this entire business side of art things, but I am trying my best :D so a like or a reblog would go a long way. Thank you guys so much for all your kind words and support
