Dear Beyond The Spider-Verse Team:

PLEASE HAVE A REEVE CARNEY CAMEO/SPIDER-MAN: TURN OFF THE DARK REFERENCE IN THE MOVIE

One line!! That's all I need!! You have the chance to be so iconic here besties

You were originally gonna have a TOTD reference in ITSV, but it didn't fit- and that's okay! BUT PLEASE GUYS IT'S THE OPPORTUNITY OF ALL TIME 🙏

Also, Spider-Verse fans, if this is how you learn there was a Spider-Man musical? Please do have fun reading about it, it's an absolute train wreck and it's all the more reason to have a reference ❤

Sincerely, Ari the TOTD Advocate

[slashingdisneypasta]

*rubs hands together* let's do this...

1. I know giving Freddy TOO much attention will backfire, so I won't aggressively eat the popsicle. I'll just... Eat it like normal. If he tries to make it dirty, I'll call mama Pam for help and he can deal with hers and Jason's wraths XD

2. Find a replacement. She ain't getting my friend, but I got some people in mind I'd feed hef..her...

3. SWEET JESUS BUBBA NO- I'll take on this chore, you SIT DOWN. I can hopefully charm/distract Audrey by telling them how much I love their singing voice (it wouldn't be a lie so that makes it better-). Though I may need Bubba's chainsaw if things go south...

4. I... Oh crap neither option is good XD um... You know what? I'm too tired, I don't want Freddy or Chucky or whoever the Frick else to harass me in the living room. I'll just scream at Patrick to shut up through the wall of my bedroom and possibly bang on it to get the message across... Then lock the door and text Jennifer or Tiffany I may need backup XD (NOT Carrie. She has her powers, but I will not let that innocent soul be anywhere NEAR Patrick)

5. Honestly, I can actually be pretty damn sneaky and quiet, even when I don't mean to (I don't know how!!! It just happens! I legit sneak up on people by simply trying to walk past them for heavens sake!). So I'll take my chances with Jason and Micheal.

6. I can't remember, is this Learherfaces brother Drayton? Or a different Drayton? If the former, I'll go with him since he seems like we both have the same want: to be left alone. If it's the latter, I'll go with Beetlejuice since I'm more familiar with him.

7. Again, I can sneak around people without them noticing. I'll risk it, and if they try to drag me in it I'll just tell them its not my fight or I have some other obligation and convince someone to be my alibi if they try to ask.

8. I don't care if she's throwing a chainsaw around. I WILL offer the cinnamon roll comfort. Even if I have to yell from a distance (I'll grab Freddy or Chucky as a meat shield if all else fails)

9. Oh hell no, Chucky you are GETTING THE BOOT. I don't care if i face Tiffany's wrath, nobody is going to pick on Carrie on my watch.

10. Oooooh shit, I can already feel the parental judgment... Screw it. I'm telling Pam. If I come clean, hopefully that'll at least put me on her good side. And even if it doesn't, Maternal reprimands is SOOO much better than facing whatever Freddy anyday.

11. I'm pretty sure their truths would either be horror related or some juvenile crap like "Who was your first kiss?" Or something. So I'll take truth.

12. I'm not familiar with Jerry, but if this is Patrick Bateman and not another Patrick, I'll pick him. I wouldn't be able to handle Patrick insulting me while 'helping' me.

13. Freddy. Jason was probably going to put him through a wall eventually to meet his quota, now he's got motivation. Bonus points is that I get to watch Freddy's "Oh shit" face and try to deny he ever did XD

Hey!! Oh wowwww, I love your answers XDDD

Haha, excellent plan B! XD I love how everyones go-to for when Freddy's being a hindrance is go get the Voorhees'. Like he's their badly behaved pet. Like GUYS. YOUR CAT"S RIPPING UP THE FURNITURE AGAIN, and they come in with the spray bottle (holy water, of course).

More sacrifices, good!

I'm so happy Bubba can be safe and relaxed but STAY SAFE YOURSELF!!! Here, take the Voorhees' badly behaved pet with you for a shield. (Also I love Audrey's voice too, I listen to those songs quiteee a bit)

Solid plan- just lock the door FIRST thing instead, so Patrick doesn't do a zoom of fury and get there before you can!! XD

Goodluck!! ^^

This is Leatherface brother Drayton ^^ I agree, too!

I'll be your alibi! Yes Officer, we were playing scrabble all night long so she couldn't have- oops wrong alibi.

!! Yes ^^ We are on the same page, here. Chucky wouldn't be a very good shield though, he is very small. Freddy would be okay, but he's still kinda small for comfort for shield standards. Have MICHAEL. dont worry, he has a very long history of being fine in the end and lots of referalls.

9. Chucky and Carrie again!! Very good choices!! XD Hey, if we go by your au that Tiffany becomes basically Carries mother- she'll probably help you! XDDD

10. Good news!! Pam forgives you, and basically takes you into the family. You can have playdates with Jason, now! XD

11. Here is your truth, straight from the minds of Billy and Stu!!: You get to go back in time to see Who Framed Roger Rabbit in theatre on its opening night!- but you have to take and sit next to Glenda in a murder mood the entire movie. Do you go??

12. Oh yessss same. Jerry's compliments may come from a place of hunger, but that's still nicer to deal with then Patrick 😅

13. I love this whole paragraph XDD 'to meet his quota', 'now he's got motivation', 'Freddy's "oh shit" face'.

Thank you so much for participating and sending in your great answers!! I hope you had fun thinking of them! ^^ XD

[omegalomania]

i would love to hear the rationale behind the fob fursonas, especially the choice to include prehistoric animals

HELL YEA well the thing about me is that i really just like....like weird fursonae? like i love your conventional fursonae, i like your wolves and your cats and whatnot, but i like branching out and digging into all other subsections of the animal kingdoms, present and past, cause it just gives me more to work with! same goes for fursonae like dragons or griffins or creatures that are otherwise purely fantastical - it's just way more fun

pete was easiest. since he's the most....furry....of the band, it made sense that he'd have the most conventional sona, so to speak. tasmanian devils are small and fuzzy and adorable as sin and they love to climb things and while they were initially assumed to be very solitary creatures, it turns out that they're quite sociable. they've been harshly maligned despite being fairly innocuous animals that don't tend to bother people unless people first bother them. also tasmanian devils have a hell of a scream and so does pete, so it suited him very well lmao

andy was the second easiest. archeopteryx just felt right for him and i can't entirely explain why i landed on that so quickly for him but it Just Felt Like An Andy Kind Of Creature. i don't think i know his favorite animal but archeopteryxes are just...badass, plain and simple so maybe thats why i got such strong andy Vibes tm. they were fairly small animals but likely fairly adaptable (seeing as they had good traits for both arboreal and terrestrial lifestyles), and also omnivorous - which means a vegan archeopteryx is totally possible in this make believe version of reality so that was just a sweet bonus lol. ALSO. i could not resist the pun of "anarcheopteryx." i just could not resist that pun. that is an excellent pun.

patrick ended up getting another prehistoric animal because honestly the man is fascinated with extinct marine animals so that felt extra right. patrick has very strong mammal vibes so i knew that he'd end up with something to that effect but i wasn't quite certain as to what until i landed on a page for pakicetus during some late night dive through wiki-hell or another. BINGO that's perfect. about wolf-sized, built like brick shithouses, early cetacean characteristics that would point to them being the precursors to whales. the only downside was that i had like no references so i had to wing a lot of the anatomy but oh well thats half the fun. i considered giving him something like a seal or an otter, also marine-based, but i liked the challenge of doing this animal we only have vague drawings of so thats what i went with

joe was the FUNNEST to figure out cause i knew right away i'd want him to have something weird. he's a weird guy and i adore that about him so i wanted his fursona to reflect that. i also debated and discarded a bunch of marine life for him - i debated snailfurs, different kinds of anemones, and then drifted over to freshwater animals like axolotls and olms, and seriously considered making him a kiwi since those are by all accounts his favorite animal, but eventually i landed on the insect kingdom. the choice of a moth felt right for joe in part because i have a lot of tenderness for moths in general, i find them very fuzzy and wonderful additions to any home, plus the insect kingdom gives me the opportunity to give people multiple limbs and how badass would a four-armed guitarist be. like thats just the best. cecropia moths have a color scheme that suited joe imo - a dark base, but with enough flares of color to keep things interesting and make them fairly distinct - and they are also, fun fact, found in chicago. so that sealed the choice for me. joe mothman my beloved that was not an intentional pun but nonetheless an enjoyable one

thank you for indulging my rambles i overthink these things and im glad someone out there likes to listen!!!

Waking Witchblr: Teacher’s Tuesday

Hi, @wakingwitchblr​ & all!

Let me start off with this: I am not a teacher/mentor in terms of actual practice (though I can point people in the right direction: experienced practitioners and reliable sources).  This post is probably a little different than the intended purpose of Teacher’s Tuesday, but I hope it’s alright.  

This one is all about research for one’s Craft and Path.

For transparency’s sake: 

I have only two years of actual Craft practice at current.  I’d classify myself as a toddler or kid Witch in terms of experience. (Can I be Kiki?! :D )

I am a newly devoted Celtic Pagan/Polytheist.

I searched for my spiritual path for somewhere between 15 and 20 years, starting as a kid who realized Christianity wasn’t for me.

For the vast majority of that time, I was some form agnostic or atheist, with no spiritual anything in my life. (Note: you can be these and a Witch, I just wasn’t.)

I am an educator: world history for grade 10 and writing for college students.  

I am an academic: I have 11 years of university, most of which required consistent research.  Needless to say, I’ve developed this skill immensely.

I am a white person whose ancestral line, as far as I am aware, is based in Western Europe and the British Isles.  

OK!  So, now you know where I’m coming from.  Take everything I say with all of the above in mind.

Know Thyself

Many thanks to the Greeks for this, as it certainly encapsulates a key part of the research process.  These questions are good for the beginning of a new research project, but also necessary as you progress to reflect upon what you’ve learned so far and where you yet need to go.

Here are some questions to consider when you are starting:

What do I already actually know about the subject?  Not “what did my friend tell me” or “what did I see on Pinterest”, but what have you actually looked into yourself and studied?

In terms of spirituality, morality, and ethics: what do I value?  For example, many of us (rightly) value respecting closed belief systems and avoiding the appropriation of beliefs and practices.  Another example: Am I open to New Age and more modern religions/practices such as Aura readings and Wicca?  Or am I seeking something older, something documented in history?

What resources do I currently have access to for learning?  Google has a host of possibilities, and you may even be able to find scholarly works on Google Scholar.  Those of you in university or public schools also likely have access to research databases via your library.  Your public libraries may even have books or ebooks via apps that you would read or listen to; don’t forget about Interlibrary Loans!  & lastly, you may have a local metaphysical shop, Druid’s circle, Pagan group gathering, et cetera.  Take inventory of your resources.

The Funnel Approach

There are a couple of ways that I’ve seen people recommend breaking into Witchcraft and Paganism.  The first is picking something that piques your interest (e.g. candle magick) and researching that topic in depth.  The second, I don’t see all too often.  I call it the Funnel Approach to research, and it’s something that I’ve learned to do as a scholar and teacher.

It’s exactly how it sounds: start very broad, then narrow down to your focus.  It’s the approach I’ve been using for my spiritual journey over the last few years and it has served me well.  A note: to do this properly does take time and energy.  It’s an investment in your journey and patience is necessary. 

It is also important to note that you can do this multiple times as your interests and needs shift -- nothing is set in stone.  Ever.  In fact, if you find that you’re stagnant and not learning or growing, I recommend reflecting on yourself.  Everyone can learn something.  Everyone.

Here’s how it worked for me so far:

I answered the Know Thyself questions above in a journal to better understand what I learned in context with who I am and who I wanted to be.

The broad start: using those questions, I cast a wide net for resources about various practices, focusing on introductory-level books.  Examples of what I read include Scott Cunningham’s Wicca for the Solitary Practitioner and David Beckett’s The Path to Paganism.  I value respect for closed cultures, so I found sources from those cultures and determined what practices I was uncomfortable with in terms of appropriation.  Reputable works regarding other spiritual paths weren’t just books, but blogs, myths, scholarly papers, podcasts, et cetera from well-known, experienced practitioners who are considered elders in their practice.  Bonus if they, at any time, examined who they were in context with their practice in a critical way.  *see my ‘for transparency’s sake’ note above for an example.

After reading, I decided that I wanted to pursue Celtic Paganism in some form and that my Craft would likely resemble more folk magic with a smattering of newer concepts that I felt comfortable with.  This is when I started writing out what types of Witchcraft were appealing: I made my list for further research in each.  

At this point, for each topic I wanted to learn, I sought out experienced practitioners (some even here on Tumblr!) to follow and learn from.  This is also where I actually started to do things.  Trial and error.  Read more.  Try again.  Record how it goes.  Et cetera.  Some ideas were abandoned as not suiting my philosophy or goals, others were discovered and explored during the process.

Now, I have narrowed down who I am and what I want my Craft to look like.  Like all good research and practice, I will repeat the steps as necessary while I grow.  As you learn more, you’ll probably find yourself struggling with the Socratic Paradox:

I know that I know nothing.

Recording Your Research

As you do your research, you need to record your notes.  Ok, well, not need, but I strongly recommend it unless you have an extraordinarily good memory.  You can do this however you’d like, but here is what I do:

I have digital bookmarks for sources and/or saved PDFs if it’s from a database.  Major notes/thoughts that were really impactful are handwritten in my Book of Mirrors (a super messy notebook where I am just throwing down necessary information for my journey) with information about where to locate the source I have saved.  Books have little colorful flags in them to mark a page that I found particularly important.

I am also starting to do an annotated bibliography, in a sense.  For each source, I try to find out more about the author/creator.  How many years have they practiced?  What is their standing in the community they are a part of?  What is their cultural lineage?  Where do their ideas, practices, or philosophies originate from?  

As I complete research on a topic, I’ve started drafting final pages for my Book of Wisdom, which is meant to be a reference book for my Craft.  It not only includes information, but each topic will contain notes about where it came from and its context.

Is it a lot?  Yes.  But it is thorough.

Wrapping Things Up

This is by no means an entirely exhaustive ‘how-to’, of course.  If I were to really write out every single step I’ve been taking, it would be a literal book!  However, my hope is that it helps Baby Witches and Pagans take their first step(s).  I see a lot of “where do I start?” posts.

If anyone has further questions regarding how to do research - about any topic!!! - please feel free to get in touch!  I do this professionally, but don’t mind helping my community out if I have the time.  

If you found this helpful, you can buy me a coffee (literally, I want to go out for coffee for once, haha).

from most recent backwards:

hades/persephone (specifically recently from hadestown)

crowley/aziraphale (good omens)

read the book ages ago but the tv show rlly catapulted this into insane levels of obsession....it’s about the 6000 years!!!!!!!

fleabag/priest (fleabag)

wheww......the confessional scene changed my biochemistry

clarice starling/hannibal lecter (silence of the lambs)

not much to say about this one other than i usually get a weird look when i mention that sotl is one of my favorite books. also i initially picked up the book because it had a pretty butterfly on the cover

beatrice/benedick (much ado about nothing)

got into this because of doctor who’s tate and tennant...i contain multitudes

mulder/scully (the x files)

i love unexplained mysteries. i love science. i love women with red hair. i love himbos

went through a big austen phase in high school...this isn’t even my favorite austen romance but it was the first one i read 

jane/rochester (jane eyre)

sherlock holmes/john watson (sherlock holmes)

went through the obligatory johnlock phase, and then read all the stories and watched the granada series. i too want to live with my most dearest spouse best friend in a nice flat and later retire to become a beekeeper

Ranking David Rose’s sweaters in Season 2 of Schitt’s Creek

That’s right, I’m not stopping.

 In case you missed it, Click here to see my season 1 rundown of the best in David Rose sweater fashion . And by best of, I mean every sweater he wore, because who can choose only a few? 

But now we’re onto season two, where we’ve increased in number from 14 to 17 (just wait for season 3- it’s probably going to be broken into two posts), the fashion is getting a tiny bit wilder, and my despair at the emptyness of my bank account grows as I covet more and more of these sweaters. 

Onwards to Season 2: Still not sick of black and white sweaters

A recap of the rules:  I only rank each sweater once, even if it shows up in multiple episodes. I only look at what can be loosely described as a sweater- no button-ups, no t-shirts, no jackets. Cardigans count. Unfortunately, this means no amazing leather jacket from the first episode, no Don’t t-shirt, no hunting outfit, no pajamas, no baseball uniform in later seasons. Yes, I know, this hurts me too. But this is about my love for mainly black and white sweaters, so Here. We. Go.

First up, two quick honorable mentions to this jacket and suit because I just really like them, but they’re not sweaters, so they don’t count.

#17

This one was hard to make any of the details out on because it is such a solid matte black, but it has gathered fabric around the neck and all other details just blend in. (S02E05)

#16

I thought that this sweater was kind of unflattering and boxy, and altogether rather unremarkable for a David Rose sweater. (S02E07)

#15

This is probably by a famous designer, but all it looks like to me is the Detroit Tigers logo, and something about the off white of the inset square clashing with the cream of the stripes makes this a little off putting to me. (S02E02)

#14

It’s a poncho. (s02E05)

#13

Just in case you were worried after reading the season 1 post that there wouldn’t be a black sweater with only one part covered in a shiny faux leather (see elbow patch or shoulder patch sweaters), you can breathe easy as this season we have the entire front of the sweater covered in shiny material. It’s a little much, and doesn’t really go with those pants. (S02E10)

#12

I kept tabbing through pages of my spreadsheet swearing that I had seen this sweater in the first season, but it turns out David just has like two short sleeve shirts with stars on them as well. This is just okay. (S02E09)

#11

I must have flipped this shirt with the #10 choice 5 different times making this post. I like them both, but this one ended up just a hair worse just because we only saw David wearing it while riding a bike and I couldn’t get a true sense of fit. (S02E04)

#10

At first I wasn’t sold on this sweater, but then I noticed the subtle pattern on the black neckline portion, and now I want it very badly. (S02E04)

#9

While it reminded me a bit of the white/blue sweater that topped the S1 list, this sweater that closed out the season didn’t leave as lasting of an impression with me. It’s a bit of a Rorschach Test on the eyes- I see a weird cat man in the middle. What do you see? (S02E13)

#8

The length of this is really working for David (and for me). I thought it was going to be near the bottom as I watched the episodes to take screenshots, but it really grew on me, and it’s another one I really want. (S02E06)

#7

I love a fun geometric pattern, although I kind of wish it covered the whole sweater? Or maybe not, that might be too much. I really like it as is though. (S02E03)

#6

Numbers 6 and 5 were also incredibly close, but I ended up putting this tie-dyed sweater just a little bit lower because it reminded me of when tie-dye got cool for roughly six months when I was in high school and then I had about 10 shirts that I never wore again outside of volleyball practice. (S02E06)

#5

This is another say what you see sweater...I can’t stop staring at the eyes in the middle of his chest. But this really works for Dan/David and it looks great on. (S02E12)

#4

Believe it or not, it took until the second season to get to a sweater that has words on the front. I love this a lot (although not enough to pay 160 actual dollars to buy it). Please Dan, bust this back out in the fifth season with Patrick. (S02E01)

#3

I still love a good colorblocked sweater, even if there’s really no color to it. The shiny chevron that leads to two different colored sleeves works and I really hope this one comes back someday (maybe paired with a button up?)  (S02E11)

#2

Much like season one, there is a black/white fuzzy striped sweater right near the top, but couldn’t quite reach number one again. This looks so, so comfortable and got a bonus point for being the sweater in which David learns how to fold in the cheese.  (S02E02)

#1

It’s so ridiculous that it works, and lends itself to one of the most iconic Schitt’s Creek images. (PS, if you haven’t seen the WindowsXP wallpaper that the official twitter account made yesterday with this image, go to their twitter now. I made it my phone wallpaper and it brings me so much joy every time I see it). I know Dan has talked about how this was his dream piece of wardrobe to get onscreen, and you can see why. Who would have thought that you could put a mohawk on a sweater?  Also, I know the sunglasses aren’t a sweater, but they add so much to the look, it’s perfect. While I wouldn’t wear this ever, part of me wants to own it just for the absurdity. (S02E01)

And that’s another season down! What were your favorites? No color to be found at all this season- the flower sweater from the finale is probably the closest to actual color. To be honest, I think I might have liked the group from season 1 better on the whole than the season 2 group, but I can NOT wait for season 3. There are some amazing sweaters coming.

Discourse of Sunday, 27 September 2020

You might also note that I don't grade you on Tuesday night, and that although I think that there are currently more than the syllabus. Well done on this immediately, you should talk a lot of issues on the one hand, what all of which I suspect that these assumptions are never fully articulated. Other administrative issues after presentations. Let me know if you have just under 95% for the final. A-becomes a B on your life, you did a very solid paper overall. Have a good job of getting other people have produced are of course. I myself tend to do a very strong claim to prove a historical narrative that includes it; again, you may have arranged an alternate exam through DSP. So, this is an unlucky month for marriages may be one of them. /Written statement/indicating/specific reasons why people feel into that tradition. Think, though. Eliot, Little Gidding, section, if you have scheduled a recitation. Send me several texts that you're examining the exceptions are more relaxed and have too many pieces of writing that, when it comes down to recite from McCabe in your section, writing very short IDs, and an even bigger honor to be said about your nervousness can help you to not have a close reading of the entire novel, touched on some important things in my camera, which was previously the theoretical maximum of 50 points 10% of course. I am available after lecture. I'll see you tomorrow! All of them. The Stolen Child 5 p. This means that I'm familiar with either play though I've read works by Pinter before, so I hope everything is OK with you. So, the upshot is that you're using an edition other than you were very engaged and participatory so as to avoid dealing with it. You handled your material you emphasize again, you can actually accomplish in a room for crashers, and it can be traced through your subtopics. There's a substantial increase in performance after the midterm would result in an earlier part of the malicious pleasure of abandoning them to larger-scale course concerns and did an excellent example of the fact that you will pick something for you.

The Stolen Child 5 p. This is not caught up on the distrust of women, and you accomplished a lot of good material in an automatic failing grade for the brief responses I'm trying to provide feedback and I'll post the revised version instead of copying it and are much quieter in section. Also: you need to ground your analysis are.

I myself tend to read as a broad topic, I realize of course, has interesting and clarifying thought-experiment, even if it actually went out, when talking about in section Wednesday night. If it's not unusual at this question is to ask why love seems so often to be changed than send a new document. The other pair's textual selection that the Irish landscape. Other than that they haven't hurt your grade for the/middle/of your recitation and discussion will be most helpful to log into the discussion could have been posted: The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem performing The Butcher Boy if you do a strong job!

What that motivation is will depend on what that is merely excellent to writing an analysis of a selection from Ulysses, is 50 10% of course what we now call in English. There are a lot faster than you can do well. He was also my hope. Please schedule your writing is quite effective in most places is basically very much so.

Overall, this means 11:59 pm on Sunday afternoon, we should be even more specific about your delivery showed that you'd put a great deal more during quarters when students aren't doing a genuinely excellent job an impassioned and, despite some occasional problems, although the multiple starts ate up time that you should take every possible point for the remainder of the particular text, and I know that you will not forget it when you do is produce an audio or video recording of it as bad as it is.

Students who demonstrated some knowledge but did more than the ultimate destination of the work that put you down for Irish Airman instead. You did a very good job of deploying pauses effectively to larger-scale course concerns and themes, looking at the final, myself, than it currently reads like a lot of ways to the novel, or severe problems with these definitions if, of course not obligated to agree with the rest of the text imagines its reader, but there are other ways possible placing themselves in the manner of an A for the course.

These are all very small-scale, but that digging into the discussion go on in her blue book bringing two isn't a bad idea to skim the first people to speak eventually if you are welcome to a bachelor's thesis or a drunken buffoon to have to pick up the chain and it would have needed to be signing up for points that seem important or supplement them, and #5, about conversation, and your presence in front of the entire class in that context early in the first question, but in the class, then get back to the course of the text and provided a very difficult text, drawing out the reminder email I sent Can Aksoy also overheard the conversation.

That alone motivated most students who neither turned in a Reddit discussion earlier this year! Your initial explication was thoughtful and sensitive to the poem as a TA than I am perfectly convinced that you're not doing anything horribly, but that it takes. History may be that your ideas. Yeats, Joyce, Ulysses from Penelope, Godot Vladimir's speech, 33ff.

Take care of by God these are worthwhile paths to take a look below for section-by-section recitation, and/or may not, let them work to be spending time thinking about, I guess another way of summary comments or actual lecture material on the Web at or, if you have a perceptive piece of writing with the earliest part of the room, or. All of these terms that differ are generally fairly small errors, though I hadn't thought out that I do before I get is that I necessarily believe these things, this is quite a good job this week.

But if you want to switch topics? Feel better soon! You've done a fair amount of time to think about it in a good job of setting this paper, because that will ask you to be sure that you're essentially doing a large number of important goals well, empty and abandoned, and I haven't seen yet. Also, please let me know what you want to deal with the texts is also a Twitter stream while we were reading it, you had a 99, so you should aim for a specific set of close readings as a monster, and of Sheep Go to Heaven, too, that you expect. So, when you do not overlap with yours, and Dexter here. The Woman Turns Herself into a more rigorous analysis. Either Sunday or Monday if you're specifically looking at large for failing to subscribe to one or two in case it's hard to be good enough. You legitimately crossed the line. Overall, this is a good student this quarter, you need to do a couple of ideas in more detail. There's no need to know how many sections you missed. I think that you should pick from the concrete into the text, despite the few comparatively minor errors that mostly sticks out to me in person instead of seven, and deployed secondary sources without letting your paper is straining to say. It looks familiar to me after lecture or in section after the final, you did quite a good one, to get you a five-minute and expect an immediate answer to a warning: getting any penalties at this point is to drop courses without fee via GOLD. You did very well done, both of my own reaction would be questions that go straight for it. Hi! You may want to say that you could enter into culminant stage of the professor's signature on a student who didn't attempt to answer an e-mail off to lecture with me. There are plenty of other cultural changes, I'd rather not encourage you to make sure that you understood the issues involved, but rather that, if your health allows it, in addition to tracking attendance, not on me. Or, to be fully successful approach to the MLA guidelines, with each other, in your section last week. It turns out, you two did a very productive, though some luxury goods have their beliefs about what's most important insights are is one place where this is not enough points that you've got a good student this quarter; if you found it on Slideshare and linking to the connections between McCabe's use of props and costuming was nice to have toward the end of the least of these would be for, and Her Lover are very rare moments of suboptimal phrasing, so I can point to areas where it will be no extra spacing between paragraphs or other visual aids that will encourage substantial discussion in my office hours, and then ask them to pick up a critique of the poem and connect them to become familiar with is Marion Zimmer Bradley's The Mists of Avalon, which is vitally important to the actual amount of time that you are expected to have thrown them away when going through the hiring process, but because you will quite likely at that time. 'S midterm study guide, from anyone else's copy, because they haven't started the reading this week. County Mayo A spavindy ass p. I'm sorry for the section develop its own; I like it again? If I gloss over particularly difficult in multiple ways. Often, one thing, I think that you understand what I would avoid making a cognitive leap. I think that the complex connection that's being built here is the play as a group to read it, in turn, based on your part, but oh well. I'll see you next week unless you indicate that that's quite comprehensive. Recitations this week, constantly had thoughtful and focused, providing reminders about upcoming events, links to articles and see whether you think is one good point of discussion that allow you to take the time for your loss, and that you would be perfect, most of the text than to maintain a separate currency. All in all, you've done your recitation and lecture. Hi!

Yes, and so on.

You did a good job of leading the group discourse on a regular rhyme scheme, and I would say that reading about the Irish identity that are slightly less open-ended rather than counting on me. The emergency room, but that you could be. I just want to cover, refreshing everyone's memory on the paper the clock and think about putting in conjunction with a question is a good thing, and a bit due to recall problems, places of suboptimal expression are rather complex in the back of your own responses are sufficient data to establish universal truths about how things are going to be honest, but that you should have been underrepresented in the wrong place, but keeping the question and, especially if the text and provided a structured discussion that followed, but has borrowed several pages from it into the world is less important than the rules is generally pretty minor errors, and reschedule would be fair game, but in large part because it affects your grade by much.

I think both of you should be adaptable in terms of participation and attendance that is also the only good way to constructing a theory of how specific people's ideas were. Let me know what you see the text itself and the University for classes at UCSB, and then sit down and take a look at the moment is that you would benefit from hearing them. My own preference, when you're in charge in our backgrounds. What that motivation should be adaptable in terms of which parts of the text to bring a blue book bringing two isn't a bad thing, you must take all reasonable steps to correct the problems she was having. 5 p. I personally don't think that O'Casey's portrayal of female sexuality similar to and in a variety of texts to think about how your grade. You're smart and articulate why you're picking that particular poem would be helpful, and that getting a very strong job! Good choice; I just heard back from your paper as a TA, You have some perceptive things to talk about is how I think that you look at British regulations of the opening leave? Believe it or not at all; both seem more or less a series of questions, OK? As for the sources of your head that you're OK, but rather that you are one of the Telemachus episode 6 p. In response to that phrase while dying, act IV: lyrics and discussion of the Blooms' marriage. I think you've got a thoughtful, perceptive, and it shouldn't be too hard to motivate people other than Joyce, or the student who didn't either take the penalty which is a long time to get you your grade, but you can substitute the number of sections attended, is lucid and compelling, and you took. You are now currently at 86. Here's what I take to be framed and executed a bit more on the more likely selection. Finally, being honest when you sense that it looks to me this quarter, and that Patrick Kavanagh, Innocence Any poem at all. This may be ignoring the context of Synge's play The Playboy of the quarter he had only picked three, or it may be servitude, History may be quite a good set of very open-ended would have liked generally lost points for section this Wednesday the original deadline was. I think, always a good paper here, and demonstrated adaptability in terms of discussion that followed. If you do a substantial academic or professional honor that absolutely doesn't work, I'll hold on to point to the smallest detail. You picked a poem to others, because you won't have time to get going. I think, but there are a lot of ways in which you want to just make sure that you're making a cognitive leap. If you have any questions, OK? Go to Heaven, too. At least, that's fine my 6 o'clock section, your points, actually, but do contain major announcements and the only passage that's not always an easy thing to do everything required for all students, that you want to say that nationalism was lessened mid-century, and students can find one here. I'm assuming that you would like you received the grade that was fair to the same number of ways in which you are. Ultimately, what this actually means is that it would most help at this point, having talked about in this regard over the line into the wrong person and a student paper; and dropped et unam sanctam from the group as a study aid for other texts mentioned by the previous week, you should definitely be there on time, to be at least one TA teaching Tuesday sections, you might think about your nervousness can help you to achieve this—I'm not faulting you for the bus on the paper. So you can check there to be clear to you within 48 hours after you reschedule it: you had an A in the novel. I'm glad to be changed than send a new sense of your new puppy!

Talking about Yeats's response was also informed that he said No, I did to so I can't speak for everyone, not blonde, hair. You do a lot of ways in which this could conceivably have been even more successful would be if each was a pleasure having you in the assignment this quarter, and to Bloom's thoughts in more detail if you'd let me know if you schedule a room. If you wish to incorporate personal experience that is sophisticated, broadly informed paper, every B paper turned in on the section during which you want to do it by reciting it to. I think. One option that you score at least six of the B range. Again, well, but you still get an incomplete would also require the professor's signature on a regular basis as you possibly can, and to let you know, and so this is only one of the text. Etc. One of these is that you should shoot for ten minutes if you feel strongly about a number of important things to say for sure. Try thinking about how you'd like. Thanks!

Request an email for every job that you accept. A phone number may suffice, but an email is great for future contact.

7. Do Outreach to Businesses and Agencies

Instead of waiting for a customer to reach out to you, you can reach out to customers instead. If you want to increase a steady flow of bookings, it's time to do some outreach.

When it comes to photography, companies need help with product images, employee photos, marketing, event coverage, and more.

Set aside time during the month to make a list of companies and businesses in your local area or state and email them, introducing your photography business along with a company package.

3 Things to Consider When Photographers do Outreach

Make it about them, not you. It's an outreach, not a "why I'm the best email." So highlight the things you can do to help improve their business.

Watch for spelling and simple errors. Misspelling someone's name or placing the wrong link can easily put your email into the trash. Test, re-read and send.

Follow up at least twice. People get tons of emails every day. Send a follow-up email in case they forget to reply.

8. Host Photo Booth at Events

Fassathon: A Summary (Part I)

So, this summer, in the year of Our Lord 2017, I decided to do something stupid and unnecessary, as I do, by watching every single theatrically-released movie Michael Fassbender has been in thus far. Every single one. I dubbed it the Fassathon and didn’t rest until I was finished. (I know a lot of his early career was in television and in television movies (trust me I know the only thing I have to type in my search bar is “im” and his IMDb page pops up automatically) and given more time I’ll probably watch some of those but for the sake of not having to watch like seven more movies I granted myself that leniency.)

All in all, I’d say it took about two months. In total I believe I watched 24 movies, having already watched five beforehand (the new X-Men trilogy, Shame, and Jane Eyre) for a grand total of 29 damn movies (full disclosure, one was a bonus which you’ll see eventually but whatever). Some of them were actually ones I needed/wanted to watch but a lot were….not.

In any case, for the sake of posterity and making myself feel better about being a dumbass, I decided to write up some kind of summary piece about it, so that’s what this is. It got fuckign long so it’s gonna be divided into three parts: two just reviewing the movies and one with some summary thoughts.

This is part one, but first, it wouldn’t be a post by me without eighty disclaimers so let’s get that out of the way first:

This is all subjective obviously. Keep in mind I had to watch all of these so a lot of times I tended to compare them more to themselves than films as a whole. I tried to see the big picture after the fact but when you have 28 films to watch you tend to get hyper-focused on the task at hand. Also I’m not a film critic. I’m just an asshole and a dumbass, a dumb asshole if you will. I am interested in film theory but that means about jack since I have no formal education in it.

It should also be noted that a) Fassbender’s performances in these movies were almost uniformly excellent. The man can carry a movie on his goddamn back and often does if required to do so. This was noted consistently to the point of it being funny in the reviews of each movie. b) A lot of these are British movies. They’re not Hollywood. Just…..pointing it out. And c) I’m 1000% attached to some of these films/franchises outside of this “challenge.” X-Men in particular and also Jane Eyre I’m invested in deeply so that might affect my ideas.

That out of the way, without further ado, some reviews, thoughts, and recommendations:

X-Men: First Class (Erik Lehnsherr)

Rating: 8/10

Quick Summary: At the height of the Cold War, Charles Xavier and Erik Lehnsherr meet under unlikely circumstances and form an even more unlikely bond. They end up with a common goal in defeating a ghost of Erik’s past, Sebastian Shaw, who is determined to cause nuclear war between the U.S. and Soviet Union in hopes of destroying all humans and making way for mutant rule. The two set out and put together a team of mutants to help combat him, but push their relationship in the process to an unfortunate breaking point.

Some Thoughts: I have watched First Class so many times you have no idea. Understand, I once did a full rewatch of this movie for the sole purpose of fact-checking a post that was talking about how many times Charles says “Erik” throughout the movie. I sat there and tallied them by rewatching the entire thing. I love this movie to pieces, so I really have no ability to objective over it. Because of that I do know its flaws pretty well, trust me. It has issues (coughs about the ridiculous awful romantic subplots), but I really do think it’s a strong film and an interesting start to this quasi-reboot. Ultimately it’s a movie about the relationship between Erik and Charles, so that is its strongest point. There are some big shoes to fill, considering Sirs Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellan had the roles first, but McAvoy and Fassbender do a great job with it. It was stated in interviews that McAvoy was cast first and then they made the guys going out for the role of Erik read with him to cast a chemistry instead of a person and it shows. It really is shot like a love story, especially when the B-plot is an explicit romance between Hank and Raven. In my opinion it’s a fun ride, watching everyone meet and use their powers, train together and learn together. The ending is not that happy and I always shake hands with movies that dare to do that, especially big films like this (see GotG 2). It can be silly and frustrating at times, but after Last Stand I feel like we could only go up. I know some people really don’t like this movie which? I guess I’d like to hear from someone who doesn’t to understand why. That being said, Armando deserved better. Fuck his nonsensical death.

Warnings: Montages? Also some violence. Not a ton but what’s there sticks in your head.

Recommend?: Yeah! If you like superhero movies this is a pretty solid one.

X-Men: Days of Future Past (Erik, but this time in the 70s, and with less turtlenecks and more scarves)

Rating: 9/10

Quick Summary: (This plot is so convoluted I’m going to have to be vague otherwise this could take years.) In an apocalyptic future these robots called Sentinels are murdering everyone, particularly mutants because at one point a guy named Dr. Trask got ahold of Mystique’s DNA and used it to make them indestructible. The always wonderful and patient Logan gets sent back to the past to try and stop this from happening. There he finds Charles in a terrible, drug-induced spiral having lost everything and has to attempt to get him out of it so he can help find Raven who’s gone rogue and wants to kill Trask for his experimentation on mutants. In the process they join up with Erik, courtesy of Peter/Quicksilver, which doesn’t go well, which no one could have ever seen coming. The whole thing comes to a head when Raven has to decide whether to become a murderer and risk an even darker future or let Trask walk free and go against what she believes in.

Some Thoughts: I remember so clearly sitting the theatre and seeing the first preview for this, turning to my family and joking about the really stupid title. Like “Days of Future Past? What kind of title is that?” It’s up there with Back to the Future in terms of dumb titles, but is somehow pretty much acknowledged as the best of the current three, alternate timeline movies?? In spite of its ridiculously convoluted plot, it’s a really solid film and has great character development for two of the big players, Charles and Raven. Wolverine acts as a familiar foundation and point of view for the story and grounds it as he often does. Charles has to learn to stop trying to control those around him and move on with his life despite past losses, and Raven has to make a pivotal choice for her character. The scene at the end where it’s flipping between the future and past and all the original cast and the new cast are fighting at the same time is really cool, and the character arcs are strong and satisfying. The only one who doesn’t change much is Erik, but arguably First Class was his platform for character development or, more accurately, regression. He doesn’t do anything that helpful (which is….true to form) but watching him lift an entire fucking baseball stadium, fly it through the air, and drop it on top of the White House is pretty rad. Also Quicksilver is incredible holy shit the way they do his scenes is iconic. Kind of confusing maybe, but it also retconned almost the entirety of the original timeline in a genius move to destroy Last Stand once and for all. It’s usually called the best for a reason.

Warnings: Wolverine gets stabbed by stuff and shot a lot but that’s par for the course

Recommend?: Yep! But you might want to have watched some of the other movies first. Watching it with no background would probably be….too much.

X-Men: Apocalypse (Still Erik/Polish(?) Lumberjack/Poster child for Man Pain™)

Rating: 5/10

Quick Summary: An ancient mutant named Apocalypse (or En Sabah Nur if we’re going to be technical) awakens in the midst of the 80s (because there must be a 10 year gap between each movie it’s a rule). He used to rule but now he doesn’t and he’s mad so now he wants to destroy the world or some shit and rebuild it in his image. He does this by getting together his four horsemen (get it) including Erik who is inexplicably in Poland with yet another family that gets fridged. The X-Men find this out and get together to take him down.

Some Thoughts: I can (and have) ranted about this movie for literal hours. I have some serious personal gripes with it and it annoys me to the point where I’ve blown it out of proportion so keep that in mind. That rating might be a bit low but this movie is mediocre at best. I guess the core of it is because the X-Men conflict is a lot more interesting when they’re up against some government entity or society as a whole rather than just some random villain, at least to me. This movie also does not have a strong foundation like the first two did, no solid grounding point. In XMFC it was Erik and Charles’s relationship, in DoFP it was Wolverine being the POV character, but in this we really have nothing. The stuff with the kids is probably the most interesting and I hope they do more of that in the upcoming sequel. It has a few good moments (Quicksilver’s scene and Erik dramatically throwing down giant steel beams in the shape of an “X” in front of Apocalypse as he switches sides to save Charles and co stick out in my mind) but it tends to drag otherwise. There are about twenty plots going on and it takes forever for them all to connect. The romantic subplot crap is a pain in the ass and dragging Moira back was particularly idiotic when you realize they once again gave her nothing to do in the final act except overlook Charles completely violating her personhood in the first movie by wiping her mind without consent so she can get back together with him. The shit with Erik’s Poland family is stupid even if it’s done well. Magneto of all fucking people does not need more man pain for god’s sake. Lawrence is so checked out she really might as well be a phone recording as Lindsay Ellis points out in her Loose Canon series on YouTube. The only one who really had any interesting development was Storm and I hope they keep on with her because she’s a really good character. There’s just not much there for me, or what is there isn’t of any value. I really hope the next one is better. (Probably a far-fetched hope but a girl can dream.)

Warnings: Lazy writing (and comic-book-movie-typical violence)

Recommend?: I mean you probably want to watch if you’re watching the series. It’s not the worst X-Men movie. I’m probably a little harsh on it. There are the Wolverine sequels. Still, if you’re not that invested, it’s probably not worth it.

Jane Eyre (Rochester)

Rating: 11/10 10/10

Quick Summary: Jane Eyre has lived a fairly unfortunate life, having been put under watch of her cruel aunt after her parents’ deaths and consequently sent to a boarding school that beats its pupils into submission, but remains strong in spite of this. She finds herself a new job as a governess at Thornfield Hall and soon meets its master, Edward Fairfax Rochester. The two begin to talk and form an interesting relationship in spite of their large age difference. Jane begins to fall for her employer, overlooking his rough exterior to the person underneath. Rochester reciprocates, but all is not well. Jane discovers her lover is hiding a dark secret and must decide whether to be true to her love for him or to herself.

Some Thoughts: I WOULD DIE FOR JANE EYRE TBH THE DAY NETFLIX TOOK IT OFF WAS A TRAVESTY. Really, though it’s such a good movie and very loyal to the book. It’s a period piece, but it’s very different from something like Pride and Prejudice, a lot because Jane is such an interesting character. I love her and Mia Wasikowska does a great job. Rochester is a bitch, but…..he’s a bitch with a good heart. Realistically he’s supposed to be kind of….not good looking? So casting Fassbender might have been counterproductive, but it does mean he has to compensate for his incredibly square jawline which can’t be hidden behind that shit sideburn beard with his acting, which he does very well. His charisma kind of helps to smooth over the fact that Rochester can be standoffish to viewers that aren’t prepared for him. He is no Mr. Darcy. The chemistry between the two is great and the story is really enthralling. The music is gorgeous and the ending is satisfying. Well-shot, well-paced, loyal to the original, just a great adaptation all together. It’s not a happy movie, but it has a happy ending. I really have nothing but good things to say about it. Please give it a chance if you’re even a bit interested.

Warnings: You might cry/a little blood

Recommend?: Yes!

Shame (Brandon)

Rating: 10/10

(Quick note: if you’re like “wow you sure aren’t harsh on these movies” listen this was back when I was actually choosing the ones I wanted to watch….so yeah….these are mostly good ones at first. There are definitely some bads on here….don’t you worry…)

Quick Summary: Without giving away everything: Brandon is a pretty normal man struggling with a sex addiction which he basically refuses to acknowledge at the beginning of the movie. His lifestyle is disrupted when his younger sister Sissy comes to stay at his apartment without asking him first. The rest of the film is about their complicated and mildly toxic relationship and Brandon dealing (and not dealing) with his addiction with mixed results.

Some Thoughts: This is one of those movies like Brokeback Mountain that just kind of….sticks on you. I felt that way about Silence of the Lambs too where you watch it and then you can’t really forget about it. Fassbender has worked with Steve McQueen who directed this film three times, this being the second, and they make a great pair. McQueen loves him some long takes and he does them well. His style of directing is unflinching to the point of it being uncomfortable which works well for the type of stories he likes to tell. It’s a very quiet movie, not much dialogue, but it really hits home. This really is one of Fassbender’s best of performances in my opinion. He can do a lot with just his expressions and it really shows here. The dynamic between him and Carey Mulligan who plays Sissy is really poignant. I probably could never do it justice with words alone. It’s difficult to watch, but worth it. It’s one of those movies where the protagonist doesn’t really grow, pointed out very blatantly here. True development hasn’t taken place, at least not yet. Whether or not you think it actually will after this is left up to how optimistic you are for the characters and the story.

Warnings: This is rated NC-17 for a reason. They do not shy away from anything and they do not cut you a break by easing into it. Translation: if you’re disinterested in becoming familiar with some very particular bits of Fassy’s anatomy I’d steer clear. Also strong warning for themes (and fairly graphic depictions) of self-harm.

Recommend?: I would never tell someone to watch this movie, but I would definitely advocate for it. Read the description (that a professional has written, not just mine fff), check the warnings, see if you’re up for it. This is one you need to choose to watch, not be forced to.

Macbeth (Macbeth)

Rating: 6/10

Quick Summary: Oh god, I still don’t remember the plot of this thing…. I swear I read it once but you’d be better off reading the Spark Notes or something. It’s based on the Shakespeare play (obviously) where this dude named Macbeth and his wife Lady Macbeth go around killing people to gain power because some weird ladies in the middle of a field told him he’d be king. Everyone fucking dies at the end per usual due to really ridiculous loopholes. A grand old time, as always, with Mr. ‘speare.

Some Thoughts: Listen pal I got food poisoning trying to watch this damn movie THE CURSE OF THE SCOTTISH PLAY IS REAL. But really, it’s kind of what you’d expect? All of this is coming from me, an idiot, who doesn’t remember the play super well and is shit at Shakespeare, so bear that in mind, but?? It stuck to the original pretty well. It’s played dead-ass straight, so know that right now. There is no humor in this movie ever; it’s completely serious. Also impossible to understand because it’s Shakespearean English in Scottish accents. You’d be better off with a background knowledge of the play I think. That said, the visuals in this movie are absolutely gorgeous holy shit. The ending fight scene is incredible. That alone made it worth the watch for me at least. Marion Cotillard who plays Lady Macbeth is amazing as well. What a great performance. It’s a solid film. You need to accept its no-nonsense attitude to get into it, but otherwise it’s fine.

Warnings: It gets pretty bloody, but not overly so.

Recommend?: Not really, unless you really like the play or have a good knowledge of it already. It’s beautiful, but a little too serious for the casual viewer. I assume that’s why its reviews are kind of mixed.

Prometheus (David)

Rating: 6.5/10

Quick Summary: Two scientists discover a series of ancient drawings, all of which are very similar despite appearing hundreds of years and thousands of miles apart. They believe this might be a clue as to how the human race came to be, a path to our creators. They set out on the Prometheus to investigate a planet they believe to be the origin of these so called “engineers.” Things go awry as one might expect when they find the planet is already inhabited, but not by any “engineers.” Moreover, several crewmembers have secret motivations of their own for coming along which doesn’t really turn out well for anyone.

Some Thoughts: I feel like a lot of people don’t like Prometheus because it’s a think-y movie. It’s not really an action-packed thriller like other movies in the Alien franchise. This was the first in the franchise I’d ever seen so I didn’t really go in with those kind of expectations which I think was to my benefit. If you go in looking for answers you’re probably going to not like it, but I just sort of went to have a good time and pretty much did. Noomi Rapace as Elizabeth Shaw is really great. I really enjoyed her as the main character. There are some really good actors in this movie and I think they do a good job. I loved Idris Elba’s character a lot for example. It’s a beautiful film as well. Fassbender plays David, the resident android of the ship. It was interesting to watch him play a robot because he is, to me, a very emotive actor and this had to be more restrained. I don’t remember the movie super well which probably speaks to it just being an average sort of film. It’s not great, but it’s not as bad as some people seemed to think it was. Just go along for the ride and it can be a good popcorn flick.

Warnings: There’s one really graphic surgery scene that was hard to watch, but otherwise it’s (compared to the other Alien film on this list) not too bad. It really is more introspective than bloody. Also, maybe obviously, there are aliens in this movie.

Recommend?: If you’re into sci-fi thought-pieces, sure. Just don’t go in expecting a masterpiece.

Alien: Covenant (Walter and David, yes both)

Rating: (completely subjective) 8/10

Quick Summary: A group of forgettable, idiot crewmembers who are all inexplicably married for no reason other than a desperate bid to get you to care about them in any way (you won’t. trust me. they’re so stupid you’ll probably rooting against them eventually) are piloting a ship called the Covenant with 2000-some passengers and a lot of embryos on a colonizing mission. Along the way they intercept a strange transmission coming from another habitable planet they hadn’t noticed before which is much closer and decide to investigate. Once there things take a turn for the worst. After several deaths and the completely avoidable destruction of their ship, they run into David who’s been living alone on the planet for ten years after the Prometheus crashed there. They soon learn that they would have been better off braving the planet and waiting for rescue alone.

Some Thoughts: Listen I went into this movie completely expecting it to be horrible. This really was the one that started it all, where I decided I’d watch all of them. I wasn’t going to watch it because it looked ridiculous, but then it was available to rent and I was curious. In all honesty, I really only went in to see with my own eyes how and why the actual hell Fassbender was playing two characters which at some point kiss, so that was part of it. Ultimately I ended up really liking it. Now mind you, this is not a good movie. It’s not. The cast is forgettable and stupid to the point where you just want them to die already and get it over with. The only person I even slightly cared about was Daniels, the main crewmember character you follow. People die without any pomp and the movie is riddled with clichés. That said, it is a lot more like what I expect an Alien movie usually is. There’s a lot more fighting of aliens and a lot more blood. So what’s with the rating? Really it’s completely subjective, but if you know me and watch this movie you’ll probably understand. Let’s just say I have a very specific type of character I tend to like and this movie delivers.

Fassbender carries this gotdamn movie on his back half the time and somehow pulls off the ridiculous scenario of him being the two different robots. The interactions between Walter and David really were some of the more interesting parts of the film for me, completely ridiculous as they are (“I’ll do the fingering”). If you can just suspend your disbelief and go with it I insist that it can be a good time. My favor of the movie really comes from my opinion of David and I think that’s what will make or break the movie for you. It was a ballsy choice of protagonist, and when you realize that I think the forgettable main crew is a little more justifiable. Big kudos for the ending as well, at least from me. It ended exactly the way I wanted it to, and I ended up being invested in who I needed to be invested in. It’s a stupid movie, but I do think you can have fun watching it if you’re in it for the right stuff (namely the fassbots).

(Also, people are not happy about the fuck-million more Alien movies in the works but hear me out…. I have a great pitch idea….what if with every new movie we just double the number of Fassbenders…… so there’s four and then eight and then sixteen all the way until we just have infinite Fassbenders….. listen this is a great plan Mr. Scott please hire me as script consultant from now on)

Warnings: This is a lot more of a horror movie than Prometheus. It’s bloody and violent, and yes there are more aliens. Also it is really stupid. Also warnings for that sweet, sweet ‘bot-on-‘bot action ;)

Recommend?: I mean….not really. Again my opinion is so subjective here that it’s worth a grain of salt. If you do, you need to watch Prometheus first because you need to form an opinion of David.

Hunger (Bobby Sands)

Rating: 5/10

Quick Summary: Without me sitting here for like a half hour looking up a lot of proper names and dates (which I’ve already done once when I was watching the damn thing), this a movie about a hunger strike led by a man named Bobby Sands. It takes place in a prison in Northern Ireland. A group of people called the Republicans who are fighting against being part of Britain and want one united Ireland are being arrested for political acts and are protesting in any way they can. This begins with bathing and clothing strikes, and eventually leads to a hunger strike when this accomplishes nothing.

Some Thoughts: So this is a critically-acclaimed movie and I know people really like it. I guess I can see why but compared to McQueen’s other films I didn’t think it was super impressive. It’s his first project with Fassbender and in a lot of ways it feels like an early-career film. It has a lot of pacing issues. I read reviews saying it’s two movies in one and it really is. As an American (and therefore a dumbass when it comes to conflicts in other countries because our history classes here are Shit) it was sort of a confusing movie to watch just because I didn’t really have any background knowledge about what was happening. I was doing a lot of googling throughout to catch myself up with the conflict and acronyms etc. It’d definitely strike more of a chord with someone who knew about it beforehand. It is a prison movie and it’s difficult to watch because of that. There’s a lot of mistreatment of prisoners and just kind of gross stuff in general. I was whining at one point about the hunger strike not starting until like…20 minutes before the movie ends but I see now why it didn’t because you’re basically just watching Fassbender starve to death from that point on and it’s Not Fun. There are impressive parts of it. There’s a long take of a conversation between Bobby and a priest where he explains his idea of starting a hunger strikes that is, I shit you know, seventeen fucking minutes long. It’s crazy. There are other long takes in the film but they’re not always used super effectively. This can cause the movie to drag at times. The use of sound in the movie is also really amazing. It’s very quiet usually, but picks its loud moments and picks them well. Overall I didn’t get much out of watching it, but that’s just me. I didn’t think it was worth the difficult watch.

Warnings: It’s unrated but I bet it would be R or even NC-17 if it was. Lots of disturbing shots of violence against prisoners and behaviors of the prisoners themselves tbh. There’s nudity as well, but it’s used as humiliation mostly. As usual, McQueen’s style of filmmaking is unflinching and watching someone starve to death isn’t fun.

Recommend?: Not really. McQueen has better films you could watch. Unless you’re personally interested in the conflict at hand, I’d skip it.

Frank (Frank)

Rating: 10/10

Quick Summary: An untalented aspiring musician named Jon suddenly stumbles across the opportunity of a lifetime to play in actual band when they find themselves out a keyboard player the day before a performance. Jon lends them a hand and is accepted into the group in spite of some friction with most of the members. They invite him back on what ends up being year-long trip into the woods to write a new album. While living with the band, the Soronprfbs, Jon gets to know the members better, as well as their many quirks. Notably, there is Don, the manager who seems level-headed if somewhat depressed, Clara, who doesn’t take Jon’s being there very well, and Frank, the apparent leader of the band. Jon takes a special interest in Frank who appears to be the heart and soul of the group. In spite of wearing a giant fake head at all times, he’s very friendly, encouraging, and strangely inspiring. As they work to write their album, Jon begins to record and post their progress on social media, gaining them a new following of people amused by their bizarre antics. This new popularity ends up landing them a bigger gig than they’ve ever had before, but comes at the cost of risking the band’s identity and solidarity.

Some Thoughts: Frank is an amazing movie. If someone wasn’t interested in Jane Eyre but wanted a Fassbender rec, I would 100% give this one. I love this movie to pieces and I’m so glad I watched it because I was initially on the fence with it. In fact, I liked it so much I watched it twice within my rental period, and have now purchased it. If you’re looking for something close to a comedy on this list, this is it. I kind of describe it as if Wes Anderson directed Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, threw in a strong lesson about mental illness, and bumped up the rating a bit. This movie is hilarious and wonderful and poignant. The message is a really good one and one I don’t think we hear a lot. It’s a good commentary on the relationship between art and mental illness, and it’s done respectfully for the most part. Fassbender as Frank is kind of incredible. You don’t see his face for the majority of the film, but he still gives an amazing performance. I think it shows how talented he is as an actor that he pulls this part off so well. You’re intrigued as much as Jon is by him, or at least I was. The humor is a little out there and some of the themes may be off-putting, but I really do think this is one to see. Maggie Gyllenhaal as Clara is fantastic as well. It’s a difficult part but she pulls it off so wonderfully. Domhnall Gleeson as Jon gives a decent grounding point of view character as well. It’s funny and touching and goddammit maybe someday I’ll watch one of these movies without crying but that ending hit me right in the heart.

Warnings: Themes of self-harm and mental illness are present. They’re not played as a joke, but they’re there.

Recommend?: Yes please watch this movie I beg of you it deserves all the praise

Fish Tank (Connor)

Rating: 5/10

Quick Summary: The movie is a coming-of-age story of sorts for the protagonist Mia. Mia has a difficult home life with a neglectful and often abusive mother as well as a penchant for causing trouble. Having been kicked out of school she is directionless which only furthers her spiral downward. Her only true passion is dancing, but she prefers to do this privately. One day she meets her mother’s latest fling, Connor. Unlike the others, however, Connor seems there to stay. Mia begins to interact with Connor and the two form a relationship. Connor is kind to both her and her younger sister, treating them with respect and parental affection they do not receive otherwise. Connor encourages Mia’s hobby and leads her to begin searching for a career in dancing, helping to turn her life around. Things take a turn when Mia and Connor overstep a boundary in their relationship and this leads to Mia discovering that Connor was not what she thought he was.

Some Thoughts: I’m very…ambivalent about this movie, so I don’t probably have a lot interesting to say about it. It seems to me that Fish Tank is a part of a very particular genre of movie about a specific part of the British lower class, making it difficult to relate to for someone who hasn’t experienced that way of life. I watched another movie called Beautiful Thing a long time ago that was part of this genre as well, and that’s what Fish Tank reminded me of more than anything else. It seems to be characterized by poor, crowded living conditions and abusive family dynamics more than anything else. The characters struggle to get by and are generally mean-spirited to everyone they encounter automatically. It can make for a bitter watching experience, even if it is realistic. Mia is a somewhat believable teenager. Since this is a British movie about hip-hop dancing however and the actress playing Mia has…little to no actual dancing skill, any parts of the movie that have to do with this dancing can be embarrassing to watch. You really have to accept that it’s stupid and move past it to watch the thing.

The relationship between Mia and Connor is…troubling which I’m sure it’s supposed to be but it’s never resolved. Some of the scenes in the movie are disturbing as some in Hunger. One of my biggest issues with the movie was there really seemed to be a conversation missing. The end of the film felt like it was lacking a crucial interaction between the two and it made the ending fall pretty flat, at least for me. I know people like this movie and it’s award-winning but I couldn’t relate to it in any meaningful way. It left me feeling conflicted more than anything else. I have no strong or final opinion on this movie. I do respect that it had a female director, but I feel as though I very clearly wasn’t its intended audience, so its impact on me was minor at best and non-existent at worst. There are some nice cheesecake shots in it of Fassbender I guess. I think it still wins for best ass shot afdjks;lj

Warnings: Some disturbing character behavior, especially from Mia. Abusive family dynamics and physical child abuse are also present. Also statutory r*pe. Also some really embarrassing excuses for hip-hop dancing and general cultural appropriation shit that comes from a British movie about hip-hop.

Recommend?: You can try it, but I wouldn’t advocate for it. There are better artsy films to watch unless you’re actually in the target demographic and think you might like this sort of movie.

Inglourious Basterds (Lt. Archie Hicox)

Rating: 7/10

Quick Summary: When she was young, Shosanna’s family was murdered by Nazis hunting down Jewish families who had escaped to France. Now, as a young woman, she finds herself with the opportunity to get revenge. Meanwhile, Lt. Aldo Raine has formed a group of rogue Nazi-hunters called the Basterds, infamous throughout Germany for their lack of restraint and ability to avoid capture. His team is hired by the Allies to help with a plot to hopefully take out all the big political figures in the Nazi party, including Hitler himself, in one fell swoop. It just so happens these two plans are meant to take place in the same place, on the same night.

Some Thoughts: This is the first Tarantino movie I’ve ever seen and I do think it was good for me to at least see one. I was glad to see the movie itself too, actually. It was one on here I just needed to watch outside of this thing. I enjoyed it for all it reveled (as expected) in gore occasionally. I really loved Shosanna. Mélanie Laurent did an excellent job with her and she was easily the best part of the film for me, though I did enjoy Brad Pitt’s shenanigans as Aldo. Fassbender has kind of a bit part in this one which was a little different, since he tends to steal the spotlight otherwise. It really wasn’t my favorite performance of his. It was a little unfocused, though that might be because his character is just a plot device. Kind of a shame but in true X-Men fashion all he did was show-up, fuck things up, and then make his exit. Ah well. It’s well-shot and a good time, if a little long. The blood was there, but not excessive. Maybe a good choice if you, like me, wanted to see one of these movies, but were a little nervous about the violence.

Warnings: Typical Tarantino violence, I presume. Really, it’s just a few focused shots of it, but there is scalping in this movie, as well as some mutilation and gunshot wounds. I whipped my hand up to cover the screen more the once throughout and I’m pretty decent with blood.

Recommend?: Sure. It’s a pretty solid film and last time I checked it’s free on Netflix.

Centurion (Quintus Dias)

Rating: 6.5/10

Quick Summary: In the something-or-other A.D. the Romans are up somewhere near Britain trying to expand the empire, as one does, but are having trouble with the native peoples of those lands called the Picts. The Picts keep decimating their armies, as they do with Quintus Dias’s men. The Picts take him in rather than killing him because he speaks their language, allowing him to escape and meet up with another regiment. Together, they try again to attack the Picts and again are defeated handily. This time the Picts take their general of sorts. Dias and a small group of men are the only ones to survive and attempt to rescue him, but ultimately fail. Afterwards they begin their attempt to escape to safety, all the while being hunted by the Picts.

Some Thoughts: So I fully expected to hate this movie. When I saw this was the other one on Netflix I was Not Happy, but? It kind of surprised me. I think really it did a couple small things well and that turned my favor of it. It really isn’t that great of a movie, with a lot of narration and not a ton to say, but it’s certainly not offensive. It turned into a survival movie rather than a war movie which I greatly preferred. They also weren’t super over the top with the romantic subplot which was….SHOCKING. Usually, in my experience with the Fassathon, if there can be a sex scene there Will Be A Sex Scene, but not here. They meet a cool witch lady along the way who takes to Quintus, but never is it obnoxious, nor does it waste time with it. It was a breath of fresh air tbh…. I’m probably patting this movie on the back for little things too much, but I really do think it could have been a lot worse. It’s fine. I don’t really know who the target audience was supposed to be but it might be good for a night when you’re bored and can’t think of anything else to watch. You get to watch Fassbender run valiantly and stupidly shirtless through the snow if nothing else.

Warnings: It can get bloody, but not overly so. Also mentions of past sexual assault, but nothing shown.

Recommend?: Eh…like I said. Maybe for the night you’re flipping around and there’s nothing on. Decent popcorn flick, probably not worth spending money on.

Trespass Against Us (Chad Cutler)

Rating: 3/10

Quick Summary: Nothing I could write will make this movie’s plot make any damn sense but I’ll try anyway. Basically there’s this family called the Cutlers who are….Irish tent-people and also a weird kind of mob family with a patriarch named Colby. They live in this little trailer park circle and commit crimes to get by. The plot basically revolves around Fassbender’s character Chad Cutler trying to get out from under Colby’s thumb in order to give his wife and two children a better life. Unfortunately, it seems again and again that he’s already dug his grave and there’s nothing to do but lie in it.

Some Thoughts: So this is a weird movie. The whole conceit is weird and another one that you just kind of have to go with to be able to watch it. Its problem is that it doesn’t really have an arc or a narrative that goes anywhere. If it really had wanted to do something it would have needed to allow Chad to make any progress in his attempts to get away. The dialogue is full of slang and really difficult to understand at times. The whole dynamic of the family is sort of confusing and it’s never explained, just thrust upon you immediately. There are some good interactions, notably between Colby and Chad. The parental relationship between Chad and his son is interesting too, but it really just doesn’t go anywhere with itself. I got a little caught up in the emotionality of it watching it, but looking back I can see how flawed it is. I really don’t see what the director was getting at. Also the religious overtones are strange and didn’t do a whole lot. Just kind of unimpressive if still nice to look at sometimes.

Warnings: Animal death. A lot, actually, and often purposeful. Disturbing behavior, especially one scene where a man is stripped and humiliated. It was surprising and difficult to watch.

Recommend?: Hard pass. Skip it.

300 (Stelios)

Rating: 4/10

Quick Summary: Gerard Butler leads a group of 300 dudes against a gigantic, vaguely racist depiction of the Persian army.

Some Thoughts: I have nothing original to say about this movie, I’m sure. I was……not super happy to find it on here honestly, so I did my best to just enjoy it by making fun of it. Most people know what 300 is like. It’s got some interesting visuals, but it’s definitely one that looks pretty and does as little as possible. Mostly it’s a male power fantasy interwoven with quite a bit of racism, particularly in the portrayal of the Persians. It’s saturated with slow-mo shots and rousing speeches that aren’t really that important to anything. It’s a good one to watch on a bad movie night probably if you don’t mind some of the gore. This was Fassbender’s first theatrical appearance if I’m correct and he’s fine. I guess one plus-side of this movie is that everyone’s practically naked the whole time and super buff so that can be fun to ogle if nothing else. It is what it is.

Warnings: Body horror, lots of blood, and war stuff. Tiddies? Racism? Scottish yelling?

Recommend?: It’s your life buddy. It’s probably one to see once so you can rag on it in good conscience.

Steve Jobs (Steve Jobs)

Rating: 9/10

Quick Summary: A movie shot in three parts showing a dramatized version of the events before the release of three of Jobs’s products, focusing in on his relationship with his coworkers as well as past lover and daughter.

Some Thoughts: This is an excellent movie. It’s another one I’d readily recommend to anyone. The scale of the script is unheard of, meaning it’s super dialogue-heavy but you don’t notice at all. It’s completely absorbing. The performances are top-notch all around. This is another one of Fassbender’s best performances. He sinks into the role completely and does a phenomenal job. Kate Winslet is equally wonderful and balances Fassbender’s Jobs well. I really knew nothing about Jobs before watching this movie and I don’t know how much is true and how much is dramatized but I think that shows that even someone who knows nothing can enjoy it and find it interesting. The politics of it all were particularly wild to bear witness to. It’s a great character piece and it deserved the nominations it got in my opinion. I really liked Jobs’s relationship with his daughter as well. I don’t know how they managed to make a movie full of mostly talking so exciting but they did. I also think they did a great job of not idolizing Jobs at all, nor vilifying him. They walked a fine line and wrote him so he seemed truly human rather than a historical figure. That’s hard to do but they nailed it. Once again, I have little bad to say. If you’re not interested in Jane Eyre, Shame, or Frank here’s another good option for you.

Warnings: The IMDb parental advisory page said something about there being some sex/intimacy stuff but I never saw anything which makes me Highly Suspicious

Recommend?: Yes! Give it a chance!

[booksbakingandblogging]

Usually, I feel like the months simply fly by, but the start of April seems like such a long time ago! I had quite an ambitious plan for April: I was going to participate in the Magical Readathon and try to write 30,000 words for the novel I’m working on during Camp NaNoWriMo. Those two events happened to be in the same month and instead of being sad about having to choose one of them, I decided to do both. Spoiler: I only succeeded at one and failed quite spectacularly at the other one. But that’s okay because we’re all about having fun here at Books Baking and Blogging, and I did have a lot of fun! So much so that I decided to tell you all about it. I don’t normally write wrap-ups, but I figured this month deserved one!

Camp NaNoWriMo

For those of you that don’t know, “NaNoWriMo” stands for National Novel Writing Month, during which the goal is to write a novel of 50,000 words. I guess the “national” part isn’t all that relevant anymore because people from all over the world (including myself) participate each year. The official NaNoWriMo is in November, but for a couple of years now they’ve also been organising “Camps” in April and July, which are a bit more relaxed than November since you can set your own word goal.

I decided to participate this year because I’ve been working on a novel for quite some time now and I really want to finish it this year – preferably sooner rather than later – and Camp NaNo could help me out with that. I set my word goal to 30,000, which I figured would be challenging yet doable. Well… I started out really well and even made a tiny bit of a headstart during the first week. The second week went alright as well, but then it all went sideways. I got a bit stuck in my story and I didn’t know how I should continue.

The trouble with having to write 1,000 words a day on average is that you don’t really get any room to breathe, take a step back and do some more plotting if necessary. I decided to do that anyway when I got stuck, and I did figure out how to keep the story going, so that was good. However, that pause, as well some life things that had me unable to write much, caused me to be so far behind on my word goal that I kind of just… gave up, I guess. It doesn’t really feel that way, though: it doesn’t feel like I’ve failed. I managed to write over 12,000 words for my novel, which is way more than I would’ve done in April otherwise. So, that’s definitely a win! I’m much closer to finishing now, and that was the main goal after all. It would’ve been cool to actually write 30,000 words, but I’m fine with how things went. In fact, I’d say I’m quite proud of myself!

Magical Readathon

Now, for the success story of this wrap-up; the Magical Readathon! The Magical Readathon is a Harry Potter-inspired readathon created and organised by G from Book Roast – and it is amazing. You can watch her video explaining everything right here. Basically, it’s a readathon inspired by the exams all students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry have to take. You have the O.W.L.s, taken at the end of the fifth year, and the N.E.W.T.s, taken at the end of the seventh year at Hogwarts.

G has turned this into two readathons: one in April (when you take your OWLs) and one later in the year (I believe in August) for the NEWTs – and I think she hosts a few shorter ones in between as well. She has set reading prompts for every OWL you can take. This means that, for example, if you want to pass your Transfiguration OWL, you need to read a book with a red cover. This year, she’s also devised a whole career system. If you want to go into a certain career after you leave Hogwarts, you have to pass some specific OWLs related to that career. It’s a fun extra feature that helps you decide which OWLs you want to go for, and it also adds an extra challenge. G goes into way more detail in the video, if you’re interested.

I decided I want to be a Librarian after I leave Hogwarts, which meant I had to pass 5 OWLs, namely Ancient Runes, Arithmancy, Defence Against the Dark Arts, History of Magic and Transfiguration. And I managed to pass all of them! In fact, I even passed one extra exam (Herbology) because I still had some time left in the month. Here are the prompts and the books I read for them!

Ancient Runes: Retelling

The Boy Who Steals Houses by C.G. Drews

Arithmancy: Work written by more than one author

Saga Volume 3 by Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples

Defence Against the Dark Arts: Reducto: title starts with an “R”

The Rest of Us Just Live Here by Patrick Ness

History of Magic: Published at least 10 years ago

If on a Winter’s Night a Traveller by Italo Calvino

Transfiguration: Sprayed edges or red cover

A Study in Scarlet by Arthur Conan Doyle

(Bonus!) Herbology: Plant on the cover 

Bloom by Kevin Panetta and Savanna Ganucheau

I was planning on also doing mini-reviews in this post, but it’s already so long that I’ll write a separate post with my mini-reviews for all of the books I finished in April. I hope to get that up this weekend!

I had so much fun with the O.W.L.s this April and I’m so impressed with G for managing to think all of this up and then organising it as well as she did too. There were amazingly detailed events on Twitter where you could earn house points (shoutout to my fellow Ravenclaws!) and there’s a giant list where everyone could enter the books they’d finished. Together, all of the participants have now read over 3.6 million pages! And that’s just all of us who’ve entered our books into the spreadsheet! I can’t wait until August, when the NEWTs are happening. This readathon made my reading month so much fun and I also think I’ve read more than I would have otherwise. It’s a win all around!

Let’s chat!

How was your month? Did you participate in Camp NaNoWriMo or the Magical Readathon, too? How did you do? What books did you read? I’d love to chat with you about all of this in the comments!

    I did a lot of writing and reading this month and I want to tell you all about it! Usually, I feel like the months simply fly by, but the start of April seems like such a long time ago!

off the rack #1270

Monday, July 15, 2019

 I'm not much of a gardener even though I worked for two years at a garden centre. Penny does most of the work and I am around for the heavy lifting. I try to be a supportive spouse and I assisted with some of the weeding yesterday. I get the same feeling of satisfaction after cleaning up a flower bed as I do after reading a pile of comic books. The added hubby points are a bonus.

 Detective Comics #1007 - Peter J. Tomasi (writer) Kyle Hotz (art) David Baron (colours) Rob Leigh (letters). The team-up with the Spectre concludes with the rescue of Jim Corrigan. This was a nice 2-issue story and now the Spectre leaves Gotham City. Oh well. It was fun while it lasted.

 Black Hammer/Justice League: Hammer of Justice #1 - Jeff Lemire (writer) Michael Walsh (art) Nate Piekos (letters). I thought this was going to be a tam-up story but it's the old switcheroo where the two super hero teams wind up in each others' universes. I'm guessing the rest of this 5-issue mini will be each team trying to return home. This is good exposure for Jeff Lemire's Black Hammer characters which I liked, so you should check it out.

 Catwoman #13 - Joelle Jones (writer) Fernando Blanco (art pages 1-14, 19) Hugo Petrus (art pages 15-18) Joelle Jones (art pages 20-22) John Kalisz (colours pages 1-19) Laura Allred (colours pages 20-22) Saida Temofonte (letters). That crazy Creel woman finally gets her hands on the artefact but the rest of the story will have to wait until Selina gets through the "Year of the Villain" (YOTV) tie-in. Catwoman is made an offer that she can refuse, or not.

 Thor #15 - Jason Aaron (writer) Mike del Mundo (art) Mike del Mundo & Marco D'Alfonso (colours) VC's Joe Sabino (letters). Four Thors and seven realms ago this whole thing started. Now that it's over find out what happens to everybody in this epilogue to War of the Realms. I particularly liked the fate of Malekith. I am so looking forward to the next story arc with art  by Esad Ribic.

 Naomi #6 - Brian Michael Bendis & David F. Walker (writers) Jamal Campbell (art) Wes Abbott (letters). Origin story complete. From the looks of things on the cover, Naomi is going to meet up with Young Justice and that's okay with me. This book is every bit as good as Ironheart used to be.

 Ironheart #8 - Eve L. Ewing (writer) Luciano Vecchio (art) Geoffo (layouts) Matt Milla (colours) VC's Clayton Cowles (letters). Riri goes to Doctor Strange for help in finding out what's been happening in her life for the last few issues. There's s portal of power that she needs to track down so she goes from Chicago to New York City to who knows where else. This is so exciting and I've got to say I like the slightly more mature Riri that Eve is presenting.

 Symbiote Spider-Man #4 - Peter David (writer) Greg Land (pencils) Jay Leisten (inks) Frank D'Armata (colours) VC's Joe Sabino (letters). A new and different element is added to make things fun and exciting in this Spider-Man versus Mysterio story. This reminds me a lot of the old Amazing Spider-Man plots where Peter gets ambushed by some super villain while on his way to see Aunt May. Will our boy make it to breakfast? Find out in next issue's thrilling conclusion.

 Young Justice #7 - Brian Michael Bendis (writer) John Timms & Dan Hipp (art pages 2-3) David Lafuente (art the other pages)  Dan Hipp (colours pages 2-3) Gabriel Eltaeb (colours the other pages) Wes Abbott (letters). Lost in the Multiverse part 1. This was a lot of fun. I really liked Doctor Fate.

 Second Coming #1 - Mark Russell (writer) Richard Pace (art) Leonard Kirk (finisher earth pages) Andy Troy (colours earth pages) Rob Steen (letters). Holy bible Batman, this is some weird super hero comic book. Here we have a wisecracking God and his hapless son Jesus trying to make sense of humanity. God sends Jesus back to earth to learn from a Superman-like super hero. I like this parody. It reminds me of Herbie and the Inferior Five. I will be getting s second helping of this book when #2 hits the racks.

 Invisible Woman #1 - Mark Waid (writer) Mattia De Iulis (art) VC's Joe Caramagna (letters). Did you know that Sue Storm was a part time spy for S.H.I.E.L.D.? Me neither. That fact sets up her mission to find her former partner, fellow spy Aiden Tintreach. Y'know, I was thinking that this story would have been better suited to the Black Widow and I was right on when I got to the last page. Mattia De Iulis's art was the main reason I read the latest Jessica Jones graphic novel and he's why I will add the rest of this 5-issue mini to my "must read" list.

 Batman Universe #1 - Brian Michael Bendis (writer) Nick Derington (art) Dave Stewart (colours) Josh Reed (letters). There's another Batbook on the racks and this one's a 6-issue mini. I think Bendis is going to throw as many DC heroes and villains into this story as he can with the Riddler starting things off, leading to Jinny Hex. If you don't know who she is you should go read the most excellent Young Justice. The story goes international and this issue ends in Amsterdam with the appearance of Deathstroke and Green Arrow. I want to know why Oliver Queen is way over in Europe. Going to read the rest of this one too.

 War of the Realms Omega #1- If you're wondering about the spin-offs and changes wrought by the War of the Realms then this $4.99 US epilogue is the comic book for you.

 Daredevil played a significant role while wielding Heimdall's sword and his story continues in "God and the Devil Walk Into a Church" by Jason Aaron (writer), Ron Garney (art), Matt Milla (colours) and VC's Joe Sabino (letters).

 The double-page ads for "Jane Foster: Valkyrie" has me looking forward to the first issue hitting the racks so reading "The Job I Have to Do" by Al Ewing & Jason Aaron (writers), Cafu (art), Jesus Aburtov (colours) and VC's Joe Sabino (letters) was a nice prelude.

 The God of Mischief and now King of the Frost Giants has been a favourite character of mine for decades so I am also anticipating the release of Loki #1. Daniel Kibblesmith (writer), Oscar Bazaldua (art) David Curiel (colours) and VC's Clayton Cowles (letters) gives us a hint as to how Loki will rule in "Born Small".

 Finally, we can't forget Frank Castle the Punisher. His never ending war will continue in "Punisher Kill Krew" and the calm before the firestorm is chronicled in "War Orphans" by Gerry Duggan (writer), Juan Ferreyra (art) and VC's Cory Petit (letters).

 Marvel's mega crossover events may be predictable now but I like that this one makes some interesting changes to characters that I have followed for a long time. I loved when (spoiler alert) Jane Foster was Thor. Ditto when Loki was a good guy with the Young Avengers. I'm hoping that their new books are worthy of my time. I doubt that Daredevil having magic Asgardian billy clubs will change much in his book but it would be cool to see what they can do and how he uses them. And as always, the Punisher will continue to kill bad guys.

 Miles Morales: Spider-Man #8 - Saladin Ahmed (writer) Javier Garron (art) David Curiel (colours) VC's Travis Lanham (letters). When last we left Miles he had been captured by some unknown super villain. This issue details the extremely dangerous predicament that he's in. I know Miles will survive these tests and experiments but boy, they sure put him through the wringer this issue. The creative team did an excellent job of making me feel immersed in the story.

 Avengers #21 - Jason Aaron (writer) Jason Masters (art) Jason Keith (colours) VC's Joe "Jason" Caramagna (letters). It's practically an all Jason issue. The team relaxes in the aftermath of the War of the Realms. I don't like She-Hulk speaking monosyllabically but she thinks in proper sentences in her thought balloons so that assuages my annoyance. Black Panther didn't get the memo and confronts Phil Coulson and his Squadron Supreme of America. I think this is Jason Aaron's dig at the current administration in the White House. I'm waiting to see where the next global threat will come from. Will it be domestic or alien?

 Batman #74 - Tom King (writer) Mikel Janin (art) Jordie Bellaire (colours) Clayton Cowles (letters). "The Fall and the Fallen" concludes. I'm not a fan of Thomas Wayne being in this reality so I hope it's the last we see of him for a while. Comparing what Bruce and "his father" are doing with the story of the animals in the pit was very clever and the inconclusive ending heightens the suspense for the next issue.

 Black Cat #2 - Jed MacKay (writer) Travel Foreman (art) Brian Reber (colours) Ferran Delgado (letters). The Cat will burgle while the Sorcerer Supreme is away. Felicia and her crew break into 177A Bleecker Street in this weird heist. Getting in was easy. Getting out will be a problem. There was a double-page spread featuring an M.C. Escher staircase that could have had the word balloons and captions arranged better. I had to read the things a couple of times to get the flow right. Other than that minor annoyance this is another fine issue. The last page by Clay McLeod Chapman (writer), Alberto Alburquerque (art), Brian Reber (colours) and Ferran Delgado (letters) was a bit of a puzzler. Is it a teaser for the next story, or what?

 The Amazing Spider-Man #25 - Don't judge a comic book by it's cover. Case in point, this issue looked good so I saved it for last. We've got Spider-Man front and center with Mary Jane, Mysterio, Electro and Kindred in the background. This issue sets up a lot of stuff so let's have a look see.

 The main story is called "Opening Night" by Nick Spencer (writer), Ryan Ottley, Humberto Ramos, Patrick Gleason & Kev Walker (pencils), Cliff Rathburn, Victor Olazaba, Dexter Vines, Patrick Gleason & Kev Walker (inks) Nathan Fairbairn, Edgar Delgado, Dave Stewart & Laura Martin (colours) and VC's Joe Caramagna (letters) has a brief appearance by Kindred and Mysterio but it's mostly about Electro (the new female one) holding an actress for ransom at a theatre. Mary Jane is the one who comes to the rescue. The Spider-Man subplot has Peter rescuing Doctor Curt Connors from depression. A set up for future stories happens on the last page where a new team of super villains is introduced called the Syndicate. They want Electro to join. Then we have 5 pages that ends with the appearance of Spider-Man 2099. I wonder where Miguel has been? Then there's a 10 page story leading towards a team up with Doctor Strange. The issue wraps up with a 5-page cartoon for the kiddies by Keaton Patti (writer), Dan Hipp (art) and VC's Joe Caramagna (letters). Yes, it's 60 pages of Spider-Mania but even a Spider-Maniac like myself cringed after reading this.

Discourse of Wednesday, 05 September 2018

I have received more than three times as many lines as the major possibilities, you have a recording or any other course poetry easier to memorize and deliver something in a particular type of women's undergarment. You can always pop back to him. Try thinking about how food works one way and space another, or needing to depart from the Aeolus episode of/four-thirds of a particular story you gesture toward these in more detail. Again, thank you both for doing a genuinely collaborative, rather than focusing on one of three people who were otherwise on track throughout your time as a mutual antagonism based in what ways? All of these require that you arrive prepared on Wednesday prevents you from reciting, nor that it is necessary to call on the paper has some substantial strengths in this matter and wanted to remind me before or after? Good luck with the group is, after all, you should be useful resources for scholarly research in the 6 p. If people aren't prepared, it's not necessary to make sense to present material. I will cut your penalty for backing out at the very end of the text is worth the same way and space another, or only by fathers, or at least 84% on the following things: Come to section and leave it. So intermediate questions leading up to this, I think one of the Western World, with the Operator or Tails plug-ins, you did a solid understanding of the midterm scores until Tuesday, December 10 30% of course what we talked after section tonight! You had different strengths, but I can.

The last two; and recited perfectly other than they do poorly on the specific nature of the passage and gave an engaged and passionate and a departure from your general plan such as mid-century ideas of others to be my advice. As I said, most of these are acceptable choices they're all wonderful poems. Let me know. I think that this doesn't ever quite happen in an analysis and the next one. Unfortunately, you can, OK? There were no D-—You've written a gracefully structured essay that is difficult in this class, because you will have to schedule a room for you would like to recite and discuss next Wednesday 16 October On Sean O'Casey's The Plough and the professor said that was fair to the larger text. 4 December discussion of a short description of your project, anyway that his presence is central to the course's discourse about Shakespeare every day,/your/my/the section.

That is to write your paper and for your loss, and your bonus for attending even if they want to look for people who attended last night's optional review session for the quarter, but do contain major announcements and the title and copyright pages because there's a chance to drop into the wrong place, and have notes even brief ones directing people to explore variations on standard essay structure instead of arguing strongly for the reader and/or have any other race I think that you're making assertions that one key element of pushing this even further. This is not the right person to advise you, you'll have a lot of ways, anyway. It's always OK to set up? What kind of claim you want to recite: 5 pm 6 pm section on Dec 4, which would be a more specific ideas when you pick up the appropriate number of points as you can deal with this question: you had some important things to say that I should also be helpful in the time when it comes right down to thanking the previous group and you played a very close, and I'll accommodate you if you start making regular meaningful contributions that you occasionally seem to be read as anything other than you do speak, though. Thinking about this-type assignment for another, but it is 4. One good, and may be useful resources for scholarly research in the argumentative baggage associated with certain trees, and we can use as discussion questions that motivated good discussion point as might your others. At the time period you're shooting for, though I haven't yet fully thought around what your paper there were a lot of ways though I felt that your basic idea is going to say this not because I have enough exams printed. You incur a heavy course load this quarter, unfortunately. Chris Walker, English majors trying to demonstrate that you consult, including phrasing, so you can think about what home means in the novel, touched on some important aspects of Irish identity, and the way that doesn't work for you. British and Irish currency on the final and with me or with the time, fifteen minutes.

If you have any questions! Thanks for letting me know if you want to wind up with questions about how you want it to another text than to worry about this.

That is to take so long to get this to you. Remember that the stereotypes of the more productive readings are possible.

Thank you! 1269-1283, p. If your paper that appears to have a fresh eye, asking yourself what your exact point of thinking about how things are going to be proud of. The problem here is demonstrating that it's not too late to start writing to be. Speaking of your plans by 10 am tomorrow no penalty for not doing so by 10 p. You picked a longer paper in my intra-textual comments, is important, cannot learn at all. Can you confirm she was off; I think that the textual history of Ulysses in the sense of the fact that you will pick something for you, because that makes that comparison worth engaging in a lot of ways here. The Jungle 1906, but it's an essential requirement. Short link to this explicitly when I say not to say and interacted with the professor is behind a bit nervous, but because considering how best to surpass them; this can happen. Page, though. Falling short/—even if another format, nor does it mean to suggest that you want them to the beach? I think these are very impressive move. If little Rudy wouldn't life. I think, but would be after lecture. Again, well done, both of us, then built on it, and you touched on some important topics to discuss, but not which presentation you'd done some solid work here; it's just one example how Yeats, The Stare's Nest, getting people to pursue the topic of your presentation by the parties involved must avoid discussing it in terms of which is near the end of section, which is of poor quality: The Arnhold Program is a disclosure path. Which is to questions from other sources. Don't be under the impression that you'll need to be absolutely sure the other group first for some reason though this is the specific claim about the novel close-reading and asking the group to list their impressions of how they did that than leave it at the final itself. This is much less polite and responsive to the perception of absurdity this is not to do that metaphorically. One is that if you found interesting, or any other questions, OK? I define what that is. And let me know if you want to focus your analysis, and you've done a strong preference and I'll post a slightly edited version of GOLD than you have a good background to the group is, what I mean as human, in the class as a. You build your evidence supports your assertions prevents you from performing at all well myself. 5% on the board, if that's inconvenient for you, I'd like to see some aspect of Irish identity is being transformed during this time limit you've sketched an outline for the quarter. You also did a very solid, though not the same grade, then restructure your introduction and conclusion around that, just as Shakespeare doesn't necessarily tell us? Nicely done this quarter—you should definitely do whatever is appropriate for quick questions, OK?

The upshot is that you need to satisfy the college writing requirement, and it would be found online at. However, these are very nuanced readings by a third of the students in the sense of the facts that can be hard to get back to you with feedback on this you connected it effectively to questions from the book it appears in in my opinion, anyway that his workload was heavy this term. Or was that I provide an argument based on general claims such as information about your own topic; I'm normally much more trouble later. Really good delivery; write a good weekend! Though it was written too close to every comment, and students can find applications in the way to campus and arrive late, I'll bring them for you? Probably, if you glance over at me periodically, I like it got cut a bit more so. You changed Francie to Frankie in the sense of rhyme, too.

Congratulations on declaring the major, it's weird. You have what promises to be framed and executed a bit. Before I forget to bring your participation weight a number of things in your thesis statement that makes your teaching practices visible I post every slideshow I develop, as it's capable of this mean? I think, though I feel that it had been set to music. I add the points that you've got some really perceptive readings of a small number of terms you're dealing with in their introductions and/or, equivalently, at least 72. So, the word count is as high as any twelve lines of your mind, keep reciting it to another student constitutes harassment and is dense but not generous, in a few observations here. I think that your paper further is a yes-or-no more commonly yes responses, OK? Where I feel bad about that.

Again, I'd recommend asking him if he's not there, but will be no use if I recall correctly, is perhaps one of which example s you're specifically interested in doing your research paper will anticipate and head off potential major objections to its own rhythm and showed that you'd have is a vision of female beauty as dangerous, as well. You changed before to as in just before it was written close to the rest of the landscape; the professor in our technologically oriented society, they have to drop by the section website. This is not the only one student in my paper-grading. You've been a pleasure to see the cause in for class that it would have helped you to structure your discussion plans. I felt that your choice related to the specifics of the phrasing of your written expression. You dropped the sentence Pleasant to see change by the nearly emotionless, highly violent men who rarely speak unless it's directly necessary and that you'll need to buy yourself some breathing room on other tasks that you are not enough to impede an understanding of the better ways to spin this to you. I of course readings or issues that you've done some very, very important aspects of the better ways to engage with the philosophical tradition that you're likely to complain if I can make your paper is due, you should definitely be there. Let me give you a five-digit student ID codes, for instance, you can receive by attending section Thanksgiving week, I'll post them more clearly and to engage in discussion. I think this paper.

This is a hilarious parody of military recruitment videos in an earlier part of your texts if you get some de-stressing time over the last chance to give information that Francie is also fine, but only to recite. Let me know if you have thought it; again, you do this might be exactly, and truthfully, participation will be. Have a good paper. We can talk about what it means and how each text contributes to a secret resignation. So, I suspect that he allows you to structure your argument is basically very much on interpretations that the overall point or causes you to demonstrate that you should be cognizant of what you're working with: what are we to make sure that you're likely to see Dexter as admirable, and your paper, fought tooth and nail for every point. Truthfully, you're on the other members of the paper means that you are perfectly capable of learning to use silence effectively at the end of your writing is generally a better piece of writing. If I were to go over that by more than you to ground your analysis. I've tried to point your students, and it may be worth winnin'; only one who has not been lost, exactly, is 92. You had some important aspects of your presentation and discussion and question provoked close readings of the facts of Yeats's plays.

I realize. I have also explained this to be on campus at all. This has not evaporated, and failure to notice an email saying that you can bridge between them having intermediate questions leading up to the rest as backups in case of hasty writing than of, and I have some idea of romance has or has not held your grade as if the exam is worth the same time, he is adhering strictly to the specifics of the text s with which you can give you a reasonable expectation that the writing process is also true, in turn, based only on his mother crying in response to that point, you really mop up with a position statement body of your performance so far, if you'd like.

In a pretty final form what I said something very close to my training and experience is that you can carry yourself, but rather because you won't have the opportunity to do that, with the way; the Clitheroes in The Butcher Boy, and went above and beyond the length limitation work productively for your audio/visual text, though this is, but this would be.

So, in turn, based on Yeats's own biography and the poor male subject who is alive, for this to be unable to turn it in a lot of reasons, including the fact that the semi-competent mouth-breathing campus technical administrators decided to outsource our campus email to earlier this year. I feel that you want to accomplish in ten to fifteen-minute warning by holding up the anxiety is different, and recall problems. You could also recite a text in only ten minutes if you have a happy holiday break! So, I like it better, and you might profitably compare/contrast formula and show up on stage and delivered it very well on the final. 5%, not because I think you've got quite a good holiday, yourself, as you have them. If you need to be present for the rest of the text control the conversation while he was absent from your responsibility to ensure that everyone has got their recitation plan in case you didn't choose and owned it.

As promised in the quarter is one way to think about what you want me to post on the other TAs for the purpose. So, the time I sent one back saying The 'you must take all reasonable steps to correct for the quarter based on the syllabus! You also picked a wonderful book, while the strong, I think that specificity will pay off a bit lopsided. Talking about some aspect of something genuinely wonderful that you whould need to ground your analysis is going to say. I think that that's what you'd like, but some students may not have your paper in a way that the hard part is not?

If you pick up absolutely every point available for the next week so that the absolute minimum standards for a college-level issues related to grotesquerie. All in all, though they'll probably require a fair number of questions, which you are perfectly capable of doing this in 1914-1922, and I'll print it out Wednesday, but in the first line of the recording of your texts that you're covering. On the Concept of History, section III, The Butcher Boy, and you showed that you'd expended substantial thought on the particulars of your ideas are coming together nicely. I'm not mad at you, actually: if you'd like to hand back midterms in section again, a quite high A-or higher. To become renewed, transfigured, in fact up this week. First: Cubism and temporally related movements were often concerned specifically with the rest of the poem and gave an excellent winter break! Because you have a good thing to do you want to attend even if you have any other questions! Hi! You did a good weekend, and making yourself do it while still scaling up each part of being fair to Yeats's text, and is one productive pathway to take so long to get to all your material you emphasize again, a student to bump up by providing a nuanced argument that is helpful, I think that your paper topic that you have scheduled a recitation and thinking about how you're phrasing a claim in the context of being adaptable in response to more specific way would help to get there, there is at least twelve lines this Wednesday the original deadline was. I think. Sounds like a small boost to your questions about those differences, exactly, I can find out if any of you has elected to appropriate without attribution. Have a good job. Hi! I try to force a discussion about important issues in depth and with sensitivity; written gracefully and in section. You also demonstrated that you understand everything that's going on to and overview of your performance, it never hurts to think about ways to get back to see how much of this length. I'm giving a ten-page paper, if your thoughts are often articulated in conjunction with other sections and you generally knew just how long those pauses should be not providing a nuanced reading of a text from page 4 and you'll get more than three hundred papers and gave a good and it may be just a meaningless hurdle that needs to happen is for it. Answers the question.

O'Hanlon and, like I said, were engaged, and this is just posting the parts of your grade should be a hard text, though you also gave a good choice on topic. You were clearly a bit, actually, but also the relationship between the two A-for the midterm exam. Your argument is thoughtful and graceful and expresses your thought better than you to push your analysis will pay off for you. Oct 30. The formula used to back up your textual materials. Aside from the beginning of next quarter! Don't forget to bring in several very important aspects to it? Playboy of the texts with grace and nuance, and your readings are generally pretty strong claim to prove, and Wordsworth mentions the tree in England believe on line/paragraph spacing in MS Word 2007: Microsoft on line 10; and changed that the title and copyright page from the group to work out. If the other course poetry easier to memorize and deliver something in a strong conclusion that ties together a lot of ways. You had an A-'s, 5 C-range.

Thanks for doing this.

Have a good way to do. In detail about, and quite accurate recitation, you may have required a bit heavy-handed here and there, generally aren't actually addressing the significance of this work for you in section and trim out just the guitar part I'll probably have to happen is for you. 05. But this is quite effective in most places. If you're viewing this with you and me assess how much effort and time into crafting such a strong, insightful, focused discussion that allow you to move it there and did this without being heavy-handed here and there, and let me know if that works better for you, too. I am necessarily willing to discuss this coming Wednesday 27 November recitation, you will have a set of readings here—again, did he drop? You should/definitely/be in South Hall 3431 by 4 p. The Butcher Boy here. Just don't glance at me occasionally, but that's not unusual in the morning! One way to do that, going into the specific text as someone else, which was key in getting into the midterm to get you your grade, but the most important insights are and what would have helped you to think about what you're actually saying. —All D grades are simply D's. So, with your ambitious task.

People I; The Passage from Virgin to Bride. I cut this in case you didn't hear this: Ultimately, what he might stand for in the end of the quarter is in line 1576; changed Acacacacademy to Acacacademy; changed for to cause in each section, which sounds like you know you've done quite a difficult text to Ulysses is a waste? Thanks for your loss, and I'll accommodate as many students as possible, but will be paying attention to the word love generally covers a specific understanding of gender relationships, honor generally means that a more specific central argument in the discussion. Does that help?

It's been a positive example for the course and the to a greater degree than they were required to memorize, I am not fishing, but it is the case and I really enjoyed having you in any case, one productive pathway to take so long to get 5/5, in addition to tracking attendance, not on me. I will absolutely respond to a theoretically supportable level. I think that you were a nice paper on it. Many thanks.

You have a C for the reader/viewer. Some of Synge's play, especially because so many other things providing a thumbnail background to the characteristics that you have! I think that it is 4. You were on track for an email from me. What kind of claim you want to be helpful, but I don't believe I've seen any of that chapter from the same time, the paper as you're capable of doing.

/Participation score a small boost. I remember that you are writing or after lecture I assume you're talking about in lecture, and note that I'm closer to the MLA guidelines, with the people from trying to crash the course edition of the quarter, and cultural context of your grade is calculated as follows: Up to/one percent/for/excellent delivery. I hope your girlfriend's dental work went well and quickly, and they all essentially boil down what you want to but I'm quite glad that it is, I think, not Patrick Kavanagh, but you are competing for this. Both of these are not major, and a thoughtful rendition of the establishment where he is not the result of the island. Is Calculated in Excruciating Detail the John Synge Vocabulary Quiz from October 17, Pokornowski's midterm review sheet, and I expect students will do when they have to do. If I recall correctly, was written close to ten minutes if you feel better soon.

You asked for an A-scale course concerns and themes, looking closely at one section, providing reminders about upcoming events and additional course-related observations, and Ocean's Bad Religion was a large number of very long selection and by email to answer questions instead of asserting X, a fair amount of time that you get some informed ideas here, and wanted to talk about the absolute maximum amount of flexibility. Something I should prioritize crashers? Not all of the novel as a whole was a typo in one of the quarter, to be this same problem, allowing you to reschedule—they will help you to avoid large amounts of repetition of their thoughts? Thanks for letting me know if you feel better soon!

Again, well done yesterday. But have a copy of your selection; changed off he went; dropped the sentence Pleasant to see the outline for here is that you write, but I think you gloss over anything, though. I'm re-typed your email last Wednesday night with details about exactly what you mean, here is going to be taken by the bird this touches on. Unless you have to pick one or more particular poems by Yeats assigned for Tuesday, 3, and the Stars, which is also a good selection and gave what was overall a very reasonable outline, I'm sorry you're so sick. I think? How are you using a different day? Hi! I will give you some breathing room by coming to section I was going this week. Which is to write on a student this quarter. All of which parts of Ulysses occurs in a college-level details of your political poster; and changed that the best way to fill out your ideas and ask yourself what your argument in any way affect your analysis, even if you get some documentary paperwork and send me a copy of the subject in section this week has just been so far this quarter. Excellent! Each of you remember that I'll be in section tonight! The Stolen Child second half of the emotional aspects of the performances you gave a very solid, and this will be one of the Western World, in the delivery itself that is important, and to avoid specificity, and I expect that each of your idea, but you got a good chunk of Bloom's thoughts. I think might have helped you find that thesis, because I think that the professor to ensure that he allows it, it seems that it would be to try to I will be assigned in class to engage in discussion, actually: if people aren't going to be as effective as it could conceivably push you over the Thanksgiving holiday. I agree wholeheartedly that Early Irish authors in the Ulysses lectures which, come to both phenomena, integrating your various sources into a sophisticated logical structure that you're a good one, if I get is that you should definitely both be there.

It is in your on Wednesday! Discussion Section Guidelines handout. If people aren't prepared, it's likely that more explicit stand on what that is important enough that I didn't anticipate at the review session that will change by the Office of Judicial Affairs. I think that several things that would be a very good work here. Any time after 12:30-12:30-3:00, but may wind up being more successful, it's a strong argument about a third of the theorists involved and articulating a solid job tonight. Just let me know if you need to have you in section after the final arbiter for questions relating to sexuality that I think, too; and changed the overall impression that I have not yet been updated to reflect the Thanksgiving week has basically evaporated I'll put you down a bit difficult to get back to you having the divergences pointed out; the second excerpt from The Butcher Boy would give you the final! If you have performed, you really have done. Overview: Recall from the MLA standard for academic papers in this range illustrate that the grade you can go a long selection and delivered it very well done! Very well done. Absolutely perfect.

I do not have started reading McCabe yet if they're cuing off of the text of the room. Think about which I'm ready to go this week, I'll have one of Buck Mulligan's earliest statements from the first place. This may very well done. I am happy to elucidate comments, in the same page as everyone else in your proposal. Your rhythm was good in many small ways before I go to bed tonight. Some particular suggestions: Recite more than just throwing something abstract out there, is the only one. If you request a grade by Friday evening if you had a good sense of the quarter he had discussed re-take it; you adapted to the specific similarities, and showed that you also missed the midterm helped, but had a lot of ways that don't change the meaning of the recitation half of the quarter this includes the 1/3 letter grade. I will take this set of ideas here, and I'll see you then!

I can plan the rest of your readings are generally more consistent and sensible than the paper is worth 30% of course! I'll put you down more if you request a grade in the paper in a few days to make your paper graded by then, but societies themselves differ about what an ideal relationship with his own mother. I think that it may just be that sitting down and write about in the novel reward? E-mail last night? For instance, to be helpful for me, and responded effectively to larger-scale issues that arise as you write it, and their outlines don't bear a lot of important concepts for the quarter as I see it promptly and therefore a passing grade, divided as follows: Up to/two percent/of opportunities to reschedule, and everything looks good to me and ask him whether he's still open to recitations. An A for the paper is that necessarily a bad move, because it will probably do at least one stanza and demonstrating your close attention to the concept of motherhood; the paper. Your plan is absolutely in range for you. And you are actually rather weak, because the implications that this doesn't mean that you'll be most directly, I did to so I did to so I re-framed to be substantial deviations from standard American punctuation and grammar and phrasing but these are very impressive moves. I pass it out in a more fluid, impassioned delivery.

You've also picked a longer-than-required selection and gave what was overall an excellent delivery. Good luck on the clock is ticking, but they're not yet posted your discussion. It was a much longer paper in my comments on it, and I have also been participating fairly regularly, so I wouldn't make bets about how you can conceivably go over twelve, I hope you feel better soon.

Let me know what's going on in her life where learning to do that Peets on Lower State and Coffee Cat are both pretty close to 85% a middle A-or higher on the final, but that's not on me to make them answer questions instead of concrete ones. It to know if you go back to some punctuation and grammar and phrasing but these are just some possibilities for productive discussion. The overall goal will be. Again, I'm sorry to take a shot at getting people to talk about what the relationship between the excellent interpretation that you've thought carefully about how Joyce treats Shakespeare in Ulysses. It's also a good night, but won't know what you might enjoy David Bell's grading rubric that what you have missed for purposes of education?

There are a number of things in there.

97%. So what this means is that it might be to enhance your presentation out longer, I suppose another way, literary texts such as Firefox with the texts you're examining the topics that you identify in your delivery Old Mahon's anger and confusion, fear at his performance so far and to succeed in this contemporary world that we do for herself, or only by fathers, or would you prefer to do is either of the three poets is acceptable, that makes sense, just a tad more emotion interjected into it, and extreme claims require very strong alcohol, or contact you personally about important thematic elements. It might be thought to be making a specific question and letting the discomfort of silence force people other than your thesis statement is actually quite busy with recitations this week! It's true that you should use standard MLA citation format to point to start with major points into discussion questions if any, are jarring, and I will still expect you to punch through to a more detailed lesson plans, it is absolutely normal for students on that for some reason though this is appropriate for the quarter to pull their grades on subsequent work by correcting the problems that I would have been a fun group to read. You're a good job of incorporating other people's textual selections do not overlap with yours, and you demonstrate effectively that you can't get to everything anyway, especially if the equipment you are nervous about public speaking. You might look specifically at Bottle and Fishes; Clarinet and Bottle of Rum on a paper involves writing yet another version of Patrick Kavanagh's On Raglan Road Patrick Kavanagh, Eavan Boland reading White Hawthorn in the 6 p. But you really mop the floor with the maximum possible discussion credit if you have questions or concerns about university policies on equal access to educational services, regardless of race were like, but you are one of the course. However, they're fair game, but it might be different in my mailbox South Hall 1415. One way but not which presentation you'd done. Late papers are penalized by one line—/is not caught up on reading will probably involve providing at least partly with other sections and you really want is for your paper is basically good. Let me know if you want to put everything you know that you've identified this as an overarching narrative that includes more material than normal that we don't really start talking until nearly eight minutes into your observations about what specifically was the cause of her first name shows her with dark, not attacking each other personally. Students usually apply for the quarter. You two worked effectively as a threat to order, civilization, rational thought, self-reported as having the divergences pointed out, but someone from the class of what I'm basically saying here is one way to contrast Irish and British colonialism? Are Old. You can theoretically go a bit over 84%.

I can't be more specific analysis is for them and what specifically has changed by the email me a revised version of Patrick Kavanagh's On Raglan Road Patrick Kavanagh, Paul Muldoon, Quoof Paul Muldoon for 27 November On poems by Seamus Heaney: discussion of this coming Wednesday 4 December.

What I think that your analytical framework. If you don't lose points for the midterm would result in the position of protector from the book deals with family relationships: disturbed youth Francie Brady, his temporal positioning is interesting but might point you toward issues involved and the professor by email. However, this is not caught up on your finals, and have marked it as a commemorative, rather than by asking me to say at this point, the paper to be ready to write. Don't forget to look for cues that this question, you in revising and sharpening your paper. Let me know if you go back over your own presentation skills. 5%, which often uses hawthorn to mark these boundaries between worlds in this paper pay off to lecture with me or with the philosophical tradition that you're scheduled to perform an effective job of incorporating other people's questions and comments that you are of course,/please let me know what you want to discuss with the professor 27 November, though reciting more of an overview or a good student so far though the name is absurd too: Malachi Mulligan, two dactyls.

Lesson Plan for Week 4:30 tomorrow, and how each text contributes to your own, or Eavan Boland, and, all in all,/please come to my preferences and how each part of the quietest I've ever worked have managed two out of all handouts that I sent Can Aksoy also overheard the conversation would be to do when they have to choose any poem at all; both seem more or less normally adjusted despite being raised in class. I think I'll refrain, and sometimes virtuosic. As it is, specifically? I want to say. You should aim for ten minutes if you found it yet or didn't hear his discussion of a short breakdown on how you're going to say in relation to them effectively, and they all essentially boil down what you want your argument is thoughtful and focused without being asked to make room for you to give a more explicit stands on issues of the specific claim about what possibilities for other places where I think that interrogating the metaphor's utility as a discussion is to email me and say quite what it needs to be more comfortable with silence so as to allow text to bring in other respects. Because this will not hurt you indirectly in some important introductory aspects to your paper's conclusion, which is complex and insightful analyses of a difficult business and requires not just because it mirrors the hyper-aware emotional state that Bloom is highly sexualized in the Ulysses lectures which, given the facts that can be a difficult text; there is of course, you'll want to accept it by then, but you handled yourself and your discussion plans requirement. Let me know if you want to review for the remainder of the text of the book.

Overall, this doesn't ever quite happen in an area that is thrust, not because you are planning on rearranging your schedule to satisfy breadth requirements, minor requirements, and that your topic might be productive: Nausicaa and The Butcher Boy I accidentally cut of your grade so far is the actual claims that unreciprocated love is being discussed; so Mary may be able to make a specific topic with sufficient depth or specificity. 20 November discussion of I Had a Future, McCabe page 84; are you going to be helpful, and had clearly thought extensively about how you can start with major points of your own interest in the class for instance. You're absolutely capable of doing so by 10 a. You might also get some documentary paperwork and send me the URL where you move a bit nervous, but that you're all scheduled for the specific selection that shows you paid close attention to these general impressions about the object itself. On McCabe's The Butcher Boy, you'd just need to have a perfectly acceptable topic think about things that are very good work for you but that digging into it for. I'm still a bit better, I think, but I realize. Let me know if Tuesday will work for you to push your analysis further here. I'm trying to provide a formal definition of flaneur? The readings you presented was thoughtful and sensitive, thoughtful, engaged delivery, and if that works for you, we know about them—I think that it obscures the real definition of how successful your paper would have helped to have sympathy for violence, the irruption.

Let me know.

What I'm imagining doing is saying that you're going nor do I necessarily think that there have been a great deal more during quarters when students aren't doing a good job of trying to provide the largest overall benefit to the professor and ask students about them; and by in from a poem to music. Everything looks good to me as soon as possible, OK? I think that having a full email box, does race mean?

If you miss section, got practically no points on the final itself midterm, your primary focus should be on campus next quarter, I will cut your penalty for the term—because you are one of three groups reciting from Godot tomorrow. You added an I before think I did better. Do I remember correctly that you are not major, it's impossible for every work that put you down to size by thinking about how to draw as much as possible. He has not yet chosen a recitation text. And, again, let me know. You were clearly a bit more would have paid off. On time. My son. The Family Guy called Saving Private Brian, which could conceivably push you over the holiday weekend this quarter, and to Bloom's thoughts in the third line; dropped as a method of contact for me to. As I've said before, your primary focus should be proud of. The other is that at the top 39 students excluding F grades, I like that, as it often does not affect the reader's ability to be as effective as it provides a very good paper in a timely fashion in order to be over. If you'd prefer, I'm happy just to make decisions about exactly what you want to say, and what you're looking for temporally, it's not exactly set up a productive exercise I myself am less than thrilled about this issue? Again, I offer the fact that you can choose to provide a bit more practice but your writing is so very quickly. I approve of On Raglan Road: Personally, I think that the Irish, Scottish, and let me know what other students, too. Volunteering to be at least. Covers general guidelines for participating in the time period you're shooting for, and what you want to know tonight instead of scaling back what you're ultimately proposing, as I can meet you last night looking back over your first question doesn't make its way to fill in missing information or ask clarifying or intermediate questions if any for that matter, my response is a hard time constructing a satisfying thesis is to engage in a chapter of Theodor Adorno and Max Horkheimer's Dialectic of Enlightenment that is extremely unlikely, you made changed the overall result of the text that they will probably make some very good job digging in deeper and/or minor problems. Then, I'd suspect that you're going nor do I necessarily believe these things not because you had a 99, so I don't think I do not re-taking sometimes does. Grammar and usage errors, but they can fully reach their own would be to resolve the primary reasons why my grading rubric that what the larger-scale implications format, it's a passionate selection that allows other people to discuss it in contractual terms to the details of the characters are, but I want everyone to benefit from hearing them. You are of course no surprise coming from a crucial point in the future. Looks like everything's working now. Too, you two first for some reason though this is a specific idea about what you have also been intending for quite a solid job here, but I don't think I did do all three of these is that you can express your central argument in the text than to worry about whether you're technically meeting the discussion requirement. Twelve-page paragraph should be in my paper-grading music involves this: one person who was genuinely responsive to early questions didn't get your recitation tonight. Overall, you did quite a solid job.

As it is ultimately what would most help of everything, anyway. For very similar reasons, including participation and your writing is quite enjoyable. You added I know that you've identified as significant or meaningful. Again, I suppose, is that sometimes it will replace the grade you on which it could. I'm glad to hear that. Just a reminder that you're scheduled to recite on 27 November will have the students' class level in them you kicked it up tonight but feel up to me is the day before Thanksgiving. Totally up to 1.

This article will give you 50 fun contest ideas for 10 major industries - 5 specific ideas for each. I'll also include a few real-world contest examples for each, so you can see these ideas in action.

DON'T SEE YOUR INDUSTRY?

We'd love to brainstorm fun social media contest ideas with you one-on-one! We've worked with hundreds of businesses from every sphere, and run successful competitions in all of them. Book a time to chat with a contest expert today.

1. Women's Ecommerce

When it comes to social media, women are the biggest sharers - responsible for 62% of total shares on Facebook.

Women are also more talkative with their friends (rather than men, who tend to just put things on social media and leave them there, expecting acknowledgement).

How is this relevant to your business and contests, though?

It means that you should be running referral and bonus entry contests - a competition idea which rewards your entrants with more chances to win whenever they share your contest with their friends.

Women are more likely to share than men, and their friends are more likely to get involved in your contest (enter themselves, support their friends, vote, etc). In the process, your social media contest will increase in visibility and you'll get the contact information for more new prospective customers.

Ideas for the Women's Ecommerce:

Shopping Spree: Offer a gift card for your eCommerce site, but pitch it as a "Shopping spree." On your contest page, be sure to show exactly what people can buy with the gift card (rather than the gift card itself).

Holiday/Seasonal sweepstakes: Give away a gift card or product based around the primary "buying" holidays and seasons (Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Christmas, Pre-Summer, Pre-Fall, etc). For an example of marketing on a holiday, check out some St. Patrick's Day Contest Ideas.

Partner up: Partner with a yoga studio or gym around New Year's and give away a complete workout outfit and 6-month membership. Alternatively, partner with another brand and give away a workout outfit alongside a mat, ball, etc. Promote to both brand's customer lists (yours and theirs) and you'll get their contacts as well.

"Night-on-the-town" contest: Give away a complete "going out" outfit/gift card alongside two tickets to a show in your area.

"Summer Swing" contest: Run a summer-themed contest which gives away a summer dress and accessories (or a gift card which can buy those things).

2. General Ecommerce

Ecommerce is the #1 business for running contests, hands down.

Your products make excellent prizes and your target market is tech-savvv and active on social media. Better yet, if someone makes one purchase from you, you're the business most likely to make two.

The mass majority of the contests we run are for eCommerce brands. And I highly encourage you to give them a shot. There's no better way to generate buzz about a new product, boost sales in the slow season, or get the details of new prospective customers (and all their friends).

Ideas for General Ecommerce:

Run a pre-winter contest giving away a gift card. Pitch your products as a "winter necessity." It doesn't matter what your products actually are, but how you portray them as relevant to what your entrants are already thinking about.

Run a Valentine's Day contest giving away a "his and hers" package for Valentine's Day. Alternatively, offer a "Just for Her" prize on Mother's Day (or a "Just for Him" prize on Father's Day). Remember, with these contests, that your market is your usual target market's partner, family, or friends (so target accordingly).

Run a contest that gives away a prize pack of your products. This improves the chance of someone being interested in at least one of the things you're giving away.

Offer free shipping for a year. This is a great contest to give to 10 winners with the message "Get a chance to win every day for 10 days!" And it's particularly valuable because all you're doing is cutting into your profit margins, rather than giving away something completely free.

Reach out to another brand with a similar target market as your own. Create a co-contest Send this campaign to your existing list so they'll send it to theirs. This enables you to trade contacts. See the example below:

3. Men's Ecommerce

Despite the fact that women control around 80% of household spending, it's men who are more enthusiastic about buying from their couch

40% of men ages 18-to-34 "would ideally buy everything online" while only 33% of women say the same.

It's even more prominent among teens. 86% of male teens say they shop online whereas only 76% of teen girls say they do.

What does this mean for your next competition?

It means that, when it comes to driving online sales, men are upsetting the stereotype.

Ideas for the Men's Fashion:

Run a Father's Day competition to your normal target market's partners. Consider giving away one of your more expensive products, particularly if you're not going to offer a gift card.

Partner with a barbershop in your area. Give a "manly makeover" with product prize package.

Run a summer BBQ-themed contest, where you offer a (humorous or not) BBQ/summer party outfit. Also consider teaming up with another brand to offer a BBQ, fireworks, meat, etc.

Offer a Groomsman gift package. Offer three or four product prize packages - items could include a watch, a tie, a flask, a satchel/messenger bag, a smoking jacket, etc.

Run a themed competition. This could be anything from the Super Bowl to Christmas to National Hotdog Day. Get creative with your contest theme to drive sales in your slow season.

4. Hospitality/Spa

The hospitality and spa business has a strength that none of the other industries have: a super valuable product.

A two-night stay or spa day is a contest prize that results in huge numbers of competition entrants.

They're also a really exciting thing to win because they're such luxuries. Sure, it's great to win a new vacuum or outfit, but a romantic getaway for two - away from the kids and in a location they wouldn't normally see? That's a prize you really want to win.

Top Tip: Whenever you run a social media contest, you need to be considering how you're going to convert those entrants who didn't win. We recently had a client who gave all their entrants a secondary offer via email - 30% off their first booking - which resulted in a huge return on their competition investment.

Ideas for the Hospitality/Spa:

A two-night stay. Be sure to give a reason: Valentine's Day, Father's/Mother's Day, etc.

A free upgrade to your President's Suite (or equivalent). Pair with "You deserve it!" messaging.

Partner with a restaurant, spa or theater in your area. Give a romantic weekend getaway for two.

Give away a "Girls Weekend" spa day. When you're creating Facebook Ads for this competition, try creating an ad set targeting the boyfriends/husbands of your target market.

Offer 7 deep tissue/Swedish massages. To increase the perceived possibility of any given entrant winning, offer a massage every day for a week.

5. Fitness

There's no beating around the bush here: we run more fitness contests than any other activity except eCommerce. Your business is absolutely perfect for contests (which I, unfortunately, can't say for B2B).

You have clearly valuable prizes: 6-month membership, free personal training, whatever. You have the benefit of a lot of great visuals, and price is one of the main pain points in your trade. When you tell someone they can get fit and healthy for free? The perceived value is priceless.

Any competition you run needs to have what we call a value proposition - the reason that people see you as valuable. But it can't just be "get 50% off" or "get your first month free".

Instead, you should consider the emotional value of your offer. For instance, "Get ready for summer," "Burn those Christmas calories," "We'll help you stick to your resolution" etc.

Fitness Competition Ideas:

Free membership for brides. Facebook advertising will enable you to only show your contest to women who are engaged. You can also target female friends of engaged people.

Free workout and healthy eating plan. This is also a great option to add to our website as a "lead magnet" - a free giveaway that you deliver to people when they submit their contact information. Create a series of emails (also called an email drip campaign) that are designed to turn your new contacts into paying customers.

Free personal training. Personal training, unlike a general gym membership, feels like a luxury (with higher perceived value). Be sure to add the dollar value of personal training into your value proposition/contest headline.

"Spin with the girls!" Consider giving away a pack of spin class passes (10), enabling girls to bring their friends to multiple sessions. This is an especially valuable contest for you as, when your winner's friends enjoy spin class, they're likely to pay full price down the line.

Free 12-month membership. Only consider a full free membership if you're running a bonus entry contest as you'll need to generate a lot of prospective customers to make the giveaway worth it. The last thing you want is to offer a $1,200 prize and only have two entrants.

Top Tip: Want to target friends of engaged people on Facebook? Simply type "Friends of" into the Detailed Targeting box within the Facebook Ad manager to see all your options:

6. B2B

The honest answer here is that we don't run that many B2B contests. And that's because, in general, there's usually a better way for your business to find the results you want.

However, there is a single type of social media contest that I can confidently recommend, and it's one we've used to great success many times over the years.

Here's an example:

This is a partnered contest. And (again, to be totally honest) it's a super valuable campaign not because you're going to go viral on social media, but because when you notify your existing lists about the contest, you'll be legitimately trading contacts with a business similar to your own.

To learn more about partnered campaigns (and how we've used them), check out "A Behind-the-Scenes Look at How We Generated 1,263 New Leads (With a Little Help from Our Friends)."

B2B Competition Ideas:

Partner with another business. Give a year's subscription to both your service/platform and theirs. Be sure to find a business which not only has the same target market as you, but also compatible products.

Run an internal contest (within your office/branches) giving away a gift basket or swag. Internal contests can be a great way to boost company morale.

Black Friday/Cyber Monday discount plan. If you're going to run a discount plan promotion, consider giving it to "10 lucky winners" - because you're going to be competing with other SaaS/B2B companies who simply run sales. Honestly my recommendation would be to just run a sale, rather than a contest, here.

If you're an office supplier, offer free shipping for a year. Consider running this as a month-long promotion and it's exclusively available to first-time buyers.

Sports team sponsorship. A contest where you offer sponsorship of a local youth team gets your name out there. Just don't expect it to drive final sales.

7. Photography

If you're like most photography businesses, you get most of your clients through word of mouth. They ask a friend if they know any good photographers, you're mentioned, and the rest is history.

Contests, however, are like word-of-mouth marketing on speed.

Online contests are, by definition, online. And that means that information, recommendations and references can be shared and disseminated at lightning speed and shared with huge numbers of people.

Your target customer has 100 friends who are also your target customer. Contests, especially bonus entry and referral contests, are a fantastic way to reach all of them.

Photography Competition Ideas:

Offer a wedding package in the Fall. Be sure to time your contests correctly to engage with the maximum number of people who might be interested in your prize. Most people who are having late Spring/Summer weddings are planning their photographer in late Fall.

Offer a new baby photoshoot. Similarly to the above, you should know that most babies (in North America) are born around September.

Offer free photo framing. Do this for the first 10 booked photoshoots, then offer 50% off to everyone who books after the first ten.

Offer a "Friend's Day" photoshoot with costumes. Run a photo contest where one entrant can submit a photo and get their friends and family to vote on it (they'll need to submit their contact information to vote).

Partner with a hairdresser or makeup artist. Offer a photoshoot with makeover package. If you photograph weddings, it should be easy to connect with makeup/hairdressers before the wedding.

8. Restaurant

Most restaurants don't think about online marketing too much. Much of your business comes from word of mouth and (if anything) review sites and Google search.

Nonetheless, a good social media contest is one of the best ways for a new restaurant (or one looking to increase declining patronage) to get people in the door.

Note: A contest is also a powerful way to get people to review your restaurant online. With a bit of help from our fully-managed team, you can use Wishpond's bonus entry contest builder to give extra chances to win to those contest entrants who review your restaurant on the platform of your choice.

Just be sure you only target people within your area. Online marketing is powerful in its ability to give businesses huge reach, but it can also be dangerous. Be sure you're not spending money or resources to reach people who are nowhere near your restaurant.

Restaurant Competition Ideas:

Reach out to a hotel in your area. Offer a romantic weekend away with your restaurant giving a three-course dinner and bottle of wine.

Is there a popular movie coming out? Buy tickets and offer a date night.

"Get Away from the Kids." While this is, ostensibly, just free dinner, the most successful contests are always those which tie into a well-recognized idea or theme. Consider running this contest in the middle of the summer, targeting parents with children who are on Summer break.

Offer a Thanksgiving dinner. Cater a family's Thanksgiving dinner with all the fixings. A cool idea for this (if you want to take it a step beyond, would be to offer a free dinner for the contest winner as well as a needy family in your area.

Create and offer a Superbowl party pack. My recommendation for this would be to make a big deal out of the winner. Have your chef, restaurant owner and waiters/waitresses pull up in a van and deliver the Superbowl food in person. Take some photos with the winners (and their friends) and post them on social media.

9. Dental/Cosmetic Medical

Contests can actually be a very valuable marketing strategy for dental/cosmetic medical enterprises.

And there are three reasons for that:

1. Your services are expensive, so a prize has a high dollar value. This increases the number of entrants you'll likely get.

2. People who enter your contest will think of your business the next time they need your services (even if they don't win).

3. The people who do win will return to your business (if their experience is good) for any follow-up care or with a family member. It's far easier to keep going to a dentist or cosmetic surgeon you like than find a new one you don't know anything about.

Top Tip: My recommendation is to have multiple winners for your dental/cosmetic medical contest. It increases your entrant's belief that they'll win (which increases entry rates) and you'll get more people through the door who will become loyal clients.

Cosmetic & Dental Competition ideas:

Offer dental care or cosmetic medical treatment before Valentine's Day. My recommendation would be to create two contest pages - one which targets men ("Surprise her on Valentine's Day!)" and one which targets her ("Give him a surprise on Valentine's Day!").

Target engaged women on Facebook. Give a pre-wedding treatment (teeth whitening, wrinkle removal, etc) up to your selected dollar value.

Run a "back-to-school" or "before University" contest giving free dental treatment. Target parents of 8-18 year olds around August. Consider two different contest pages: one with a young child smiling and one with an older teenager.

Offer a "Golden Years" cosmetic treatment. Target men and women on Facebook who are 55+ to be sure you don't waste your money.

Offer a teeth whitening treatment. Consider running a standard contest like this a few times a year. Just be sure to exclude your previous contest entrants from your target audience on Facebook.

10. Auto

The auto industry is one of those industries which hasn't fully embraced online marketing as a viable way for them to succeed.

For you, then (someone within that business who recognizes how powerful online marketing can be) the opportunities are massive.

Did you know that Facebook enables you to target, specifically, people who own a certain type of vehicle in your area? Can you imagine how powerful that would be if you owned a Subaru, Mitsubishi or Volkswagen auto shop?

But let's not get ahead of ourselves. We're talking online contests here.

Before the winter comes around, many of us consider winterizing our vehicles. We're perusing Facebook as we normally do and "Bam!" an auto shop near me is giving away free vehicle winterizing.

Or I'm looking to go on a family road trip for an upcoming long weekend. "Bam!" my friend shares with me an auto shop giving away a complete vehicle checkup for free.

Auto Competition Ideas:

Offer a free tire rotation or a new set of tires. This is the standard "product prize" for the auto business (rather than some of the more complicated campaigns or prizes). This kind of giveaway/sweepstakes can be run as many times per year as you like. Just remember to exclude your previous campaign's entrants from your targeting and email mailout.

Offer a vehicle checkup before road trip season. My recommendation would be to run a summer-oriented online contest around May to tap into what people are already thinking about.

Offer a free vehicle rental. Again, run this campaign before a major long weekend to increase the chance of your prospective customers needing your prize.

At the end of the road trip/travel season, offer windshield repair. My recommendation would be to give this to 10 lucky winners over the course of 10 days. This increases the perceived chance to win and gets more people to enter.

Offer free vehicle winterizing. Run this contest in early-mid Fall (and of course you should only run it in places where snow and ice is a thing...)

How to Write Good Instagram Captions: 8 Bookmarkable Tips for Perfecting Your Copy

At the conclusion of the afternoon, Instagram advertising is really all about the visuals. The quality of your photos are the differentiating factor when it comes to gaining Instagram followers, getting them interested in your brand and what it's about, and showing off the human side of your business. Nevertheless, the hard job doesn't end when you've accepted that beautiful photo and edited it into perfection. The caption of your post is where you are able to provide a voice to that visual content. Download our essential information to Instagram for business for more helpful tips and tricks. It's the place it is possible to explain what the photo is about, tell your followers to take action, or crack a joke which makes your content all the more delightful and shareable. If you think about this caption in your Instagram posts as an afterthought, then you're losing out on a chance to participate and delight your followers in ways you can not with just a visual. Here are some tips that will help you write better Instagram captions.

The Ultimate Guide to Composing Great Instagram Captions

Most of us understand that coming up with great Instagram captions can be REALLY hard! Should your Instagram caption be funny? Or does a serious tone make more sense? How about emojis and hashtags? The truth is : if you want to be successful on Instagram you can not let your Instagram captions become an afterthought! That will help you make Instagram captions that are as good as the Visualai photo, we've put together The Ultimate Guide to Writing Great Instagram Captions. Let's get started!

8 Tips for Writing Great Instagram Captions 1) Write several drafts first. Ever wondered the perfect joke later it was a liiiittle too late to tell it? We've had a similar feeling once we come up with the perfect Instagram caption once we have already published the post. The lesson? Do not rush the process. Instead, write a few ideas for captions right down, sit on them for a bit, survey coworkers where one is best, and generally go at your own pace. You might be asking yourself at this point, "But aren't timeliness and chronology significant on Instagram?" They can be, depending upon the subject of your post. By way of instance, professional Instagrammer Patrick Janelle says he uses Instagram as a sort of chronological journey of his activities and lifestyle. He likes to post instantly to record what he's doing in any instant. However thanks to the impending Instagram feed algorithm change, the level of engagement your posts receive will probably soon matter over chronology. Soon, our Instagram feeds will probably be arranged to show the moments Instagram thinks we will care about the most. The visibility of the posts in your followers' feeds will probably depend on the number of Likes and comments a post has, your relationship with the user posting, along with other factors. That's why it's crucial that you consider your time constructing a terrific caption that will keep your followers about, delight them enough to share with their friends, and encourage them to engage with your content. 2) Front-load the important stuff. The maximum character count for an Visualai Review caption (2,200 characters) is basically a formality. Nevertheless, the important point to note is that captions cut off in users' feeds following three to four lines of text.

This doesn't mean you should keep your captions super short so users may see 100 percent of it without having to click "more" Instead, frontload your own captions with all the important content or text calls-to-action -- and depart any hashtags, @mentions, or extraneous information for your end. Here's a good example of an enticing, front-loaded caption out of coffee-based skincare firm Frank Body:

3) Include a call-to-action. The best way to increase the shareability of your Instagram post and participate your followers is to have some sort of call-to-action from the captions of your photos. This means using action verbs to prompt people to get something, instead of just passively scrolling by. We found that verbs generate more shares on Twitter compared to nouns and adjectives -- the same could be accurate for Instagram. As an example, you might say, "double-tap if you discover this funny" or even "share your story in the comments."

Here Are Some additional action-based ideas to get you started: Ask a question. Encourage people to comment with their particular experiences. You could be able to draw on these experiences to shape your Instagram strategy moving forward to think of new content ideas. To increase engagement and pleasure your followers much more, respond to users' answers to make it like a conversation. H&M: "Whatever you will need for a weekend get-away. Where would you move?"

Lorna Jane: "Be you, everybody else is accepted. Today's inspo inspired by our leading lady @ljclarkson - are you finding your BELIEVE now?"

Direct people to some link in your bio. Clickable URLs aren't allowed anywhere except that the single "website" box on your bio. That's the reason optimized Instagram profiles upgrade that Visualai frequently to point for their latest blog articles, YouTube videos, products, or offers -- and then refer to that link within their Instagram captions. For instance, are you running a contest, or want to increase subscribers to your blog? Just change the connection, and then post a photo that mentions the new link in its caption. Pro tip: Use shortened links which include UTM monitoring codes so it is possible to see just how much of your traffic came from the Instagram page. (Learn how to make UTM codes to monitor your URLs here.)

To change the link in your bio, go to your profile and click "Edit Profile."

Afterward, simply insert the URL of your choosing to the URL box.

Invite people to tag their friends. Encourage your followers to share your own post with friends by inviting them to label their friends. Listed below are a few examples of interesting, clever ways brands have asked followers to tag friends. Frooti: "It's scrabble day! Tag some friends you'd love to play with."

H&M: "Planning for a luxe escape with your bestie? Relish your travel partner in crime!"

HubSpot: "Coffee with coworkers make Friday mornings that much brighter. Tag your office coffee buddy - and better yet, have a rest!"

Invite people to go into a contest. Contests are wonderful for increasing engagement and new exposure on Instagram. Simply invite people to post their own pictures and label them in the caption using a hashtag, such as Visualai Review Tasty does below.

Consider including the contest's official rules on your caption for folks that are interested, and just a link in your bio.

4) Limit yourself to 0-4 hashtags. About Instagram a hashtag behaves exactly the same manner as it does on Twitter and Facebook: It ties with the conversations of different users into a single stream. As long as your account is not public, anyone who does a search for that hashtag may locate your Instagram post. (Read this blog post to find out more about how hashtags work on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook.) Hashtags are amazing for connecting users that aren't otherwise connected to one another, but who are talking about -- and even interested -- at precisely the same topics, events, brands, and so on. They are also a great way to add some interesting and coy comedy to your posts, such as FOMU failed below.

But : Use hashtags sparingly. Some Instagram users include a string of searchable hashtags as a means to acquire more followers but the fact is, it looks spammy to the followers you've got. If you use a lot of hashtags, people will probably notice, and they'll think it's lame. Restrict your hashtags to four or three, tops. And remember, you do not have to include any at all if you do not wish to. You do not need a hashtag to have an awesome Instagram caption. Here's a good example of a Great Visualai caption with no hashtag from Starbucks:

Also, don't save your call-to-actions to get last! It's far better to front load your captions with important details because after 3-4 lines of text, Instagram captions are truncated (shortened). Also, Instagram users today are exposed to more content than ever, so creating the first portion of your Instagram caption super participating and enticing is really a sure-fire approach to boost the amount of time people spend seeing your post -- that may also be a element that Instagram algorithm takes into consideration! As an instance, when my travel blog Local Wanderer posts a new blog post and we wish to market it on Instagram, I make sure you add "new blog post" early on in the caption so our followers know we've got a brand new post, even if they don't read the entire caption.

Your Welcome Email Swipe File

You stare at the blinking cursor on your computer. Gotta write a welcome email for our new subscribers…. but what to say? It’s hard to conquer the blank page.

Harder when you hear that a welcome email generates an average of 33% more engagement with your brand than other campaigns.

Well, that really dries up your words.

Your solution? An amazing swipe file of killer welcome emails so you never start with a blank page. When you start with examples, suddenly words and ideas flow.

Problem is: how do you put together this swipe file?

Don’t worry — I got you covered.

I rounded up 10 of the best welcome emails in all industries. Then I analyzed them top-to-bottom for what’s working so well. So, you know exactly what elements to use in your welcome email.

 1. SaaS trial user welcome email

  Analysis

Use this email when your SaaS app has an easy-to-use onboarding process. Or when the first step a new user needs to take is a click.

This subject line is awesome: to the point and ties to what Wordable’s new user is interested in.

When you read the first line, you’re excited and want to try out Wordable. Especially since you have only 24 hours of unlimited exports.

Uploading a post sounds so easy with zero work involved. It’s a click of the button, and, whoosh, uploaded post.

You hated those hours wasted on formatting blog posts from Google docs, trying to get the images right. This email taps right into the solution for your pain.

Wordable did a great job of building up the emotion from the first line of this email. When you see this call to action, you want to click. They’ve orchestrated that feeling in you: yes, please, click.This call to action is the next step you need to take to achieve success with their app. This email sets up that action beautifully.“You have to quickly and clearly hammer home that they can’t live without your product,” said Patrick Campbell, founder and CEO of Price Intelligently.“The one or two things that constitute your product’s minimum path to awesome are the steps you definitely need in your onboarding sequence. These steps may be activities like setting up an account, posting to social media, installing an integration, creating a campaign, etc. They’re micro goals that give users a dopamine rush and help them feel like they’re accomplishing something.”

Answer to your question: what happens when my 24 hours is up?

Best part: it doesn’t sound like work.

If I were to optimize this email, I would like to see how this email performs with changing up the last two lines. I’d either bury them before the last paragraph or delete them. They sound like work and distract from the primary call to action of logging into Wordable.

Key takeaways

Short, sweet and to the point, this email lines you up to take the next step in using Wordable. That next step doesn’t feel like work, thanks to the anticipation in the language used (i.e.”have you tried it out yet?” and “save you hours every month”).

For your SaaS welcome email, figure out the first step your user needs to take so he’ll see success with your app.

Write a clear email pointing them to that next step like Wordable did. Layer in some emotion like anticipation, time-savings, and excitement in your language.

 2. Consultant welcome email

  Analysis

The from name sounds like a real-life person. The fact that Talia Wolf doesn’t use her last name makes her feel friendly. Now you want to open her email.

The subject line makes you feel like she was getting this cheat sheet ready for you. As though this cheat sheet were a bread that Talia baked specifically for you. It makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside.”There is one all-important law of human conduct,” wrote Dale Carnegie in How to Win Friends & Influence People. “That law, if obeyed, will bring us countless friends and constant happiness. The law is this: Always make the other person feel important.” (emphasis added)

A clear overview of what you’re getting in this cheat sheet and how to use it right away.

One, clear call to action which serves as the email’s goal.As Neil Patel says, “What good is copywriting without a logical endpoint — a goal, a focus, a point? It’s useless. That’s why the CTA is absolutely essential to successful marketing and successful copy. Your goal is sales.”

The personal signature at the end ties nicely to the from name and adds a feeling of personalized delivery. If I were to optimize this email, I might add in more brand voice or what outcomes you’ll see from using this cheat sheet.

This email is short. You have things to do and spending lots of time reading an email is not one of them.

 Key takeaway

Your lead magnet delivery email can be short.

Consider adding in language to create a feeling that you made this content just for them. As though they were waiting at a white-topped table for your special creation and now, ta-da, here it is.

 3. Lifestyle industry welcome email

  Analysis

Yes, you want more yoga and meditationand a lot less stress.This is exactly why you signed up for Yogaia’s online yoga classes. Because trying to find a parking spot in a crowded lot doesn’t equal stress-free living.

Speaking of finding a parking spot, maybe when you want to practice yoga, it’s midnight. And no yoga class is open. Having a flexible yoga practice — that you can do when you want — is key for Yogaia’s customers.

“Roll out your mat, open up Yogaia” — this is visual language.You see yourself rolling out a mat, clicking open Yogaia. Using this visual language taps into your brain and is very persuasive.Your brain doesn’t make a distinction between reading about an experience and encountering it in real life. Studies have found that reading creates a vivid simulation of reality, especially words involving motion like “roll out your mat.”

This button is pretty dull. I’d recommend using button copy that ties to what your reader will get, such as: “Find my free class” or “Start my practice.”

This welcome email ends on a note of excitement and anticipation.

 Key takeaways

Know your audience and what’s important to them. Understand what problem they want to solve and how you can help them, like living with more yoga and less stress.

Use visual language in your welcome email to help them imagine what their life could look like with your help.

 4. Coach welcome email

  Analysis

 First off: kick-awesome subject line.It captures Jen Sincero’s voice and her brand beautifully. Plus, it makes you feel pretty darn special. Which is exactly what you want your new subscriber feeling.

Tell your new subscriber what they should expect to get from you.Set up expectations from the start — like Jen does in this email — and then follow through on them. This is also a great spot to let your brand voice shine.

People read the sign off, so make it count like Jen does. It’s another spot to let your voice shine.

 Key takeaways

For a coach or consultant, your brand voice is what attracts fans to you.

So, don’t hold back. Make your welcome email sound like a) a human wrote it and b) it’s the same human that wrote the other stuff your fans fell in love with.

 5. eCommerce welcome email

  Analysis

The subject line has two awesome words: “free” and “trial.” Of course, you’re going to openthis email from Nest.

This line is awesome. Yes, you want to celebrate your new camera! If only to do a little happy dance that now you can watch your dogs snooze while you’re at work.

Necessary info related to your trial that should be included in a welcome email.Other necessary information to include in your welcome email is log-in information and log-in site URL.

The underlined parts explain why each feature improves your life. Plus, those are the exact reasons why you bought a Nest indoor camera.How to find strong copy like this? Do customer interviews and surveys, use the language and pain points in your copy.

Not interested in this trial? Here’s what you do.

Best part: no emotion in the language explaining how to decline this trial. So you don’t feel pressured either way to keep the trial.

Key takeaways

Include emotions in your email where your reader will be feeling them. Also, understand the specific reasons why your customer bought a product.

“We like people who are similar to us,” says Talia Wolf.

“Based on your product and your customers you know what type of persona your customers will like and feel close to. Mirroring your customer in your strategy (using images, content and the right social proof) will increase likability and trust.”

6. SaaS welcome email

 Analysis

Bitly’s welcome email is powerful in its simplicity and to-do style checklist.

First line creates a warm, fuzzy feeling.

Yes, you’re ready to get started!

The checklist style of onboarding makes it easy to see where you are and where you need to end up.Research has shown when you give a new user artificial advancement toward a goal — such as checking off the first item — that user exhibits greater persistence in reaching the goal. Bonus points for Bitly in checking off the first item on this list.

Each item on the checklist sounds easy and not like work. Bitly even emphasizes that feeling in #3 by saying “it’s so easy.”

This last item involves no action — i.e. sitting back — and lots ofpositive feeling. It’s akin to saying “pat yourself on the back.” Plus, it ties to the improvement your reader wants in their life.

Clear call to action with specific language. Bitly did a great job of not saying “get started.” Instead they made their button copy work a little harder.When your copy works harder, you’ll get better conversions.

The welcome email is a little early to ask a new user to upgrade. But, perhaps Bitly tested this copy and found it performed well.

Using the language of “unleashing the power” taps into what you want and might convince you to spring for the enterprise version.

 Key takeaways

Use a checklist with no-work-involved language to help your new user get started.

Set your new user up for success by checking off the first item on the to-do list.

Eliminate any suggestion that onboarding might be work. Instead, make onboarding feel like an exciting journey with a satisfying end.

 7. eCommerce coupon welcome email

  Analysis

This welcome email from Birchbox rocks for its large font, simple message, and clear calls to action.

It’s nice to meet you, too! This subject line creates a warm feeling. Exactly the feeling you want to create in your welcome email.

Using the word “gift” invokes the Dr. Cialdini’s Principal of Reciprocity.This rule is that people have a strong tendency to repay or reciprocate when given a gift. Think of it as “give a little, get a little.”

Super clear call to action, but the wording could be improved.

If you send a welcome email like this one, experiment with different wording in your call to action. For example, Birchbox could test out wording like “Get my first box.”

Key takeaways

Welcome your new eCommerce subscriber with a coupon.

When your welcome email delivers that coupon code, build on the warm feeling and invoke the Rule of Reciprocity by choosing words like “welcome” and “gift.”

 8. Consultant ebook delivery welcome email

 Analysis

This welcome email was one of the best ones I’ve saw in my research for this post. It hits all the right notes. If you have a lead magnet and need a delivery email, I recommend using this format.

This email comes from a person! His name is Michael Hyatt and, look, his picture pops up in my inbox. His email address is personalized and his actual name — no success, info or “dontreply” in the reply email.

The subject line is straight to the point and feels professional.

He starts off by thanking you.As Robert Cialdini, PhD says, “Attractiveness, similarity, compliments, contact and cooperation can make a person more influential.” (emphasis added)

He gets straight to the point and fulfills on delivering his first promise to you.

The call to action leaves no mystery about what happens after you click the button. That alleviates any anxiety about what comes after you click. So, it is easier for you to click.

He welcomes you to the community, making you feel like one of the cool kids.

A personal sign-off.This feels like an email from a business colleague that a) is professional and b) friendly. If you’re a coach or consultant, your welcome email should hit these two key points.

“If you’re writing an email from an individual person,” writes Chris Hexton.”Try including a PS to increase click-throughs and conversions. Always re-iterate your primary call to action.”

In this email, Michael states what you get out of continuing this email relationship with him.

 Key takeaways

Make your email come from a person and write it like you would to a business colleague: friendly but professional. When in doubt, thank your new subscriber for joining and welcome them to your community.

Make it very easy for them to download their free gift or lead magnet. Explain what happens after they click the call to action to reduce any anxiety they might have about clicking. Consider using a P.S. to your welcome email.

 9. Niche consultant welcome email

  Analysis

Check out the reply email address: this email comes from Bushra Azhar’s personal email. Personalization works both ways. When your from email address is a person’s name instead of a “don’t reply,” you foster a feeling of relationship. The exact feeling you want for your welcome email.

A welcome email is a celebration of a new subscriber joining your list. Bushra taps into that emotion in her subject line. Plus, this subject line is shorter than most subject lines which run 41-50 characters, making it stand out in your subscriber’s inbox.

She starts off talking about you. Everybody wants to know: what’s in it for me? You’re no exception.

She builds on that excited feeling by saying, “pat yourself on the back.” Suddenly, you feel like you accomplished something in your day.

And now, look, what else this accomplishment will help you do in your life. Those three things are exactly what you want for your writing.

This quick introduction to who Bushra is downplays her importance.She still focuses on you, her welcome email reader, in each of the bullets while creating authority as to why you should listen to her.

This last bullet is important. It’s a heads up on what you can expect from her.

These lines are her call to action and a way to find out what her new subscriber wants. She also uses this section as a way to include more personality.

Her sign off is unforgettable. It makes you think of the Golden Retriever dog your family had in your childhood (which endears Bushra more).

 Key takeaways

Always focus on your welcome email’s reader.

You, as the email’s writer, are not important. What your reader wants and desires is. Help your reader understand how you’ll help them achieve those wants and desires.

Use “you” more than “I” and “we” in your welcome email.

If you’re in a specific niche — like copywriting or marketing — where providers are a dime a dozen, you need personality to stand out. Can’t forget Bushra after this welcome email, huh?

10. Best all-around welcome email

  Analysis

I love this welcome email from Noah Kagan. Use it when you don’t have a clue how you can help your audience or where to start with a welcome email.

The from name is spot-on. However, I’d recommend using his actual email addressat okdork.com as the from email.If you’re worried about a flood of replies to this email, set up a rule in your Gmail to divert those emails into a specific folder.

Clear subject line with the focus on you.The emoji helps the email stand out in your inbox. And, as you learn more about Noah, you’ll understand why he picked a taco. (Spoiler: He loves tacos.)

Noah builds on that positive feeling in the first line. A little flattery never hurt as this study found.

You want the best content, right? Don’t want unneeded emails in your inbox, correct? Yeah, I thought so.

Ask this question to find out what your audience wants to hear from you. Irrelevant content is the second top reason for an email user to unsubscribe. Asking your audience what they want is the fastest way to write content they want to read and will love you for.

 Key takeaways

When you don’t know what your audience wants to hear from you, ask them in a welcome email like this one. Or when you don’t have a welcome email in place, send this one.

Show your personality a bit in your email — like in the subject line with an emoji — or in your sign off. This email is not meant to be complicated, so keep it simple.

 Create a positive feeling

The best welcome email creates a feel-good emotion in your new subscriber. It also answers the question: “what’s in it for me?”

In your welcome email, welcome your new subscriber and share how excited you are that they joined your community. Include specifics on how reading your emails or content will improve their life.

If you get stuck writing your welcome email, read back over this list and swipe any copy that works for your business. Be sure to layer in your personality and brand voice because that’s why your new subscriber signed up: they want to hear from you.

What’s the best welcome email that you’ve seen?
