#i'm sorry but i will be reblogging this post every day

hello people of tumblr, it would mean the world to me if you helped me out in voting my favourite bisexual nerd into winning this one singing competition that might have taken over my life. it is a very simple process, it is free of charge and you can vote once a day tho it's fine if you only vote once, it will make me immensely happy nevertheless <3

so, the steps are as follows:

download the 'ot 2023' app from the app store

2. if you are from a hispanic country you shouldn't have any problem with this. if you are from any other part of the world, you need a vpn to access the app.

3. register with your email or whatever means is easier for you. don't worry, it's free of charge and they don't send you spam emails or anything; i've had it since the beginning of the contest and i haven't received any. it is simply a way to track how many users are in the app i guess.

4. go to the heart in the bottom left (circled below)

5. click on paul thin and confirm your decision of voting him as a winner by clicking on the tick. his heart should be purple then. this is free of charge, you don't have to worry about the money.

6. repeat if you want it next day until next monday :)

also, just to see who you are voting for, here are some of his best performances from the first half of the contest (due to how the program is structured, the second half performances are not available in youtube yet)

Hiya Lauren! I remember a while back you reblogged something about mark being romantically involved with nearly all other queer atypicals and it did mention oliver/mark as unrequited and I wonder if you could elaborate a little more on that?:D I'm just curious:) You don't have to of course! Ty!

oh gosh, I WISH I remembered this - I don't reblog very much that isn't fanart, so I'm having a hard time recalling what post this would've been and what I might've said/added to it!

I don't think of Mark/Oliver as unrequited at all. That said, in The AM Archives specifically, we were not writing toward that ship - it wasn't the intention and we had no idea that Andrew and Kristian had that chemistry until we were recording the whole season all at once. And then we weren't sure if we were going to get another season at all! So there definitely was a period when I was more uncertain about it, mostly because it was unclear what the future would hold for any of the characters.

While they don't get together in The College Tapes, I do think that they very slowly figure things out in the months and years afterward. In the TCT planner (which is technically the last bit of canon that exists in the Bright Universe, in terms of timeline), there's heavy implications that they're living together - or at least spending a lot of time together - and I think all of us who made The College Tapes were thinking of them as a romantic ship when writing that show.

They both have buckets and buckets of trauma and unresolved issues (as did Mark and Sam - and their inability to work through it together/the way they first met and got together, etc. is one of the reasons they didn't ultimately work out) so I can't say what their future holds, but as far as I'm concerned, they're headed toward romantic involvement the last time we hear from them (or already there).

I hope that answers your question!

fuck ok who's got that one post about gloom division where they describe every song as something like:

"i am going to fuck the devil in the pussy" (sounds of dallon retching and throwing up on his bass) (loud ass synth riff) "and then the pussy will kill me"

emotional rollercoaster at 5 a.m. watching the race > getting study done before 9 a.m. > 2.2k words of the new fic written in a couple of hours > some more reading for uni (actually enjoyable) > coming back to tumblr to see Max and Penelope being the cutest thing ever, incredible f1 fanarts and Mario Renzi's breathtaking shots = i need a new brain a new heart to bear life from now on 'cause mine are washed out P.S: the fic is past 11.k words! Happy that I've got so much writing done today in the last few days! Only problem is I've written until the climax of the story, which is still an unfinished scene, and there's a lot to cover yet. My gosh. It'll never end. It's been three months. So many things happened... Anyway, I don't want to get your hopes up, I don't know how long it'll take. Just for info, the fic is a pierre gasly x reader + two other characters heavily involved... and the trope isn't another friends to lovers! Out of my comfort zone! Thanks to @gaslysainz for the request! ♥

﹒⪩⪨﹒Have a nice one ﹒⪩⪨﹒

It’s such a shame I saw the Mario Movie right before the end of TOH because I am just as mental about Wittecest as Mariocest, but because the latter got into my brain first every single Wittecest post I see my brain goes

“That’s so toxic. They’re so messed up. The Mario Brothers would never.”

can i be honest. buck is a very well written character. his storyline while not perfect has been done well. it's very cohesive and real. that said. every day i log onto tumblr dot hell and i am tempted to blacklist everything related to him

The mold is in my lungs. Every breath the mold takes I take one as well. My beating heart takes the same rhythm as the creaking in the wooden ceiling and the floors give way below me. I do not move, for I cannot.

“ im back in the fucking building again” i never left thr building. ive been rotting away with the walls. im covered in moss just like the floor. i couldnt have left if i wanted to.

Sometimes college professors like to hop on my posts lamenting the sorry state of syllabi these days and joke about how they haven't thought that far ahead in the course themselves, or talk about how they struggle to complete a schedule for their students.

With all due respect, that's your job. If you can't do your job, you should have a different job. If you need help, ask your colleagues or your department chair or *someone* because I know that professors aren't given a hell of a lot of education on how to educate, so you probably *need* help.

But every single time I make one of those posts I get anywhere from ten to thirty messages, replies, reblogs, and asks say "oh man, that's exactly why I had to drop out of school; I couldn't keep up with the assignments because I didn't know when they were due until the week they were due."

I have been a college student in three separate decades, and "not having a schedule of assignments in the syllabus" is new to my experience. That shit didn't fly in the 2000s or 2010s and I think it likely has to do with professors being overly reliant on apps.

AT A MINIMUM your syllabus should have:

Contact information (including preferred method of contact) for the professor

Office Hours

Grading Policy

Assignment schedule.

Your assignment schedule doesn't necessarily need to have the exact page numbers of every reading or a full assignment sheet for each project, but it should have things like:

December 1st - Major Project 3 second draft due December 9th - Quiz 10 December 12th - Major Project 3 final draft due December 15th - Final Exam

If you end up presenting a more thorough schedule with readings and homework later, that is acceptable to present a week or two into the semester but it is absolutely insane to me that students these days don't know what homework they're going to have to get done over Thanksgiving break during the first couple weeks of class.

If I had three professors at once who didn't give me a schedule, how on earth would I know if I was going to have to read three chapters of a novel, take a midterm and turn in two stats homework assignments, and complete a history research paper the same week that I'm planning to travel to see family? If I'm aware of this from the beginning of the semester I can make sure not to pick up extra shifts, or I can plan to leave a day later to accommodate the midterm, or I can start working on the paper early to complete it before the due date but if I don't know what's going to be due when, I'm going to have a big problem.

If you don't give your students a schedule you are communicating that you don't care about their schedule, and that you think it's their responsibility to contort their life (and their job, and their other classes) around your class, and honestly my advice to students in that situation is "drop in the first week and pick up another class". That's actually part of why I recommend signing up for one more class than you can really manage - if you get a professor whose class looks like it's going to be a disaster because they don't have a schedule, you can bail before the withdrawal period and get a refund for the class.

I'm only in one class this semester but the professor's response has fully dropped me into "Fuck it, I guess I'll fail" mode and I don't even know if I can pull myself out of my current D grade because I don't know how many assignments we have left in the semester.

This is a shitty way to run a class. If you can't do better than this, you shouldn't be running a class.
