...cool. Cool cool cool cool cool cool cool.

This is fine.

Yeah, this is fine.

Definitely no need to panic.

There's not some terrible horrible skin disease just making it's way around the school.

Don't worry about it.

Everything's fine.

ALL good.

That said, as an aside, do people just, like, call the CDC if they see a weird disease? I didn't know you could just do that. I mean, I guess it makes sense, 'cause it's like calling your doctor, but on a larger scale, so that tracks.

Also with that in mind, shout-out to Natalie Martin (side question: why isn't Lydia taking this test with them? Maybe she took it early? I wouldn't put it past her lol.) for being so on top of that and so quick to react and keep other students out of the building. Maybe she knows something we don't and recognizes this as something really bad and that's why she's calling the CDC.

So...that's great. Can't wait for this to be super freaking dangerous and terrifying.

Positive little things I loved before I keep watching.

Loved the chaotic little moment at the beginning of the episode where Scott and Stiles try to hide the money when Malia starts running up the stairs. The way that Scott just shoves it under the bed and Stiles is practically slapping him to hurry up and then they both just stand up like everything's fine. We love them. XD

Loved the little pack moment where they're all trying to build each other up right before the test (oh Stiles...you're not helping, honey XD).

Loved Stiles and his three pencils and two hands, only to drop them all when he gets to a question he's confused about and just stare at it in slight horror.

Loved all of Malia's facial expressions with all of her worry about the test, and even though I feel sooo bad for her, I bet she's gonna do better than she thinks she is.

Loved Scott and Stiles being literally incapable of just focusing on their test once there's another problem in the room, and I love their matching facial expressions.

And last, but certainly not least, loved the way Scott just gave that last little look to Natalie before shutting the door behind the rest of the students as they all filed back into the classroom.

Oh also, as an aside, even if we hadn't gotten that opening with this PSAT proctor clearly doing something evil, I would've guessed he was evil just because he played a really awful serial killer on Criminal Minds.

ANYWAYS.

Let's figure this out, shall we? (Please let them re-take these tests, because they're all distracted as is at this point and deserve a second shot. XD)

(He's so adorable and relatable I cannot. Me too, Stiles. Me too. XD <3)

Update: STILES IS ITCHING! I REPEAT!! STILES IS ITCHING! NO LIKEY!! NO! LIKEY!!

Update Part 2: F*CK F*CK F*CK F*CK F*CK!! SCOTT HAS IT!! I REPEAT!! SCOTT HAS IT!!! I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS!!!

Update Part 3: Melissa and Noah's concern for their kids has me all kinds of emotional and the fact that one of those kids is PARTICULARLY AT RISK and ACTIVELY HAS IT makes me even MORE emotional and I just--- As a positive aside, love Deaton's "not something, someone" because THIS is how awesome it is to have parental resources in all corners of Beacon Hills. Anyways SOMEONE CURE THIS PLEASE!

I'm sure lots of people have multiple Cow Experiences so just pick the one where you were in the closest proximity to the Bovine.

Also feel free to describe your favorite Cow Experience in the tags

getting into school of choice + getting a perfect PSAT score success story⋆.ೃ࿔*:･📔🎀

i was asked to make this post via inbox so if ur the anon who asked for this success story then here you go 🫶🏽💗

SCHOOL OF CHOICE ;

so ever since the pandemic i had been on online school, and the pandemic happened when i was in sixth grade and i stayed online till eighth grade. i moved states and was ready to be back in person for 9th grade, but i HATED the school i was at.

i felt like it didn't challenge me at all, the uniforms were ugly and i felt like i couldn't make it work and all in all it just wasn't a good fit for me. so me and my mom started looking for other schools. there is this school that i wanted to go to, its a blue ribbon school, i loved the uniforms and the programs that they offered aligned with me and my goals so i really wanted to go there.

the only problem was that it is WILDLY expensive. like diabolically expensive. and i knew that at the time my parents wouldn't be able to afford it. but i disregarded that and just affirmed "oh im so happy i got accepted into this school" (they have an entrance exam cuz u have to qualify to get in) i would just affirm affirm affirm.

two weeks after we got an email that i passed the entrance exam and that they would be willing to work with my parents on the payment method but i could go and buy a uniform cuz i was in 💕

PSAT SCORE ;

this one was more recent, we took PSATS in october but i just decided that i got a perfect score, i listened to some subliminals. i did study for the PSAT but nothing crazy. just 1-3 hrs a day and some khan academy. again i'd just tell myself that its already done, i got have a perfect score etc and i did get a perfect score despite falling asleep in the testing room twice 🕊️

Please check out your local library!!

I volunteered at a library this summer where my main tasks were returning books and organizing. Here’s some common books I saw tons of in the library that you can get for free!

Cooking. So much cooking. All kinds of foods, dietary limitations, and cultural specific.

Crafts (sewing, crocheting, knitting, painting, decorating, pottery, drawing, and cross stitching are what I can remember just off the top of my head. So many)

ESL/learning English

Foreign language learning

Financial advice

So many “___ for idiots”

Destinations / countries

Mental health / disorders (and recovery)

Music (including sheet music)

Classics (the ones you see read in high school)

Test prep (including SAT, ACT, PSAT, ect)

Gardening / how to grow stuff

Pet care

Child care

Illness information / coping

Disability information / coping

Both specific and general historical topics (From just the history of America in general, the history of a certain group of people, to history of certain events, ect.)

Most hobbies.

Religion

How-to’s and guides

Audio books and movies are usually available in the hundreds. Popular books and movies are accessible.

It’s usually disability friendly and most are also offering free games and devices to borrow.

Most also have computers where if you are looking for a certain book, it will tell you where it is in the library or which nearby libraries do have that book.

Fiction books are also abundant and usually the genre is labeled on the spine.

Even if you don’t want to take a book out, you can sit there all day and just read a book. It’s a good, quiet place for those stuck in a chaotic situation. It usually has AC/heat, bathrooms, and water fountains too. As long as you’re not a snorer, no one really cares if you even take a nap.

Overall, I cannot recommend libraries enough. People really think why go when you have the internet, but it really has everything and an immediate option so you don’t have to search. And, once again, free!

Libraries, especially in more conservative areas, are getting less and less funding and more and more restriction on books with content regarding LGBTQ+, black history/authors, and safe sex. Donate to your local library. Visit. Check out what is there. There literally is no negative!!

Just wanted to try out a new pen. I think it looks good, but I don’t think I’ll ever use this pen again. At least the original doodle looked nice. The lighting came out really good for the final product too, or so I believe

tohle se uprimne bojim dat na Reddit, protoze tam by se mi v komentarich najednou objevila cela populace Krestanu a homofobu v Cesku, ale ja to fakt nechapu.

proc mame KURVA od pristiho roku tuhle dementni legalizovanou diskriminaci jmenem "PARTNERSTVI". jako fakt dik. odendali jste tu "registrovanou" cast, coz pusobi jako registrace na nejakym rejstriku Untermenschu, a pridali par prav, ktera v tom mela byt odjakziva. ale ne a ne tomu rict MANZELSTVI (protoze neco neco tradice, JSME ATEISTICKY STAT VY DEBILOVE, PROC SE MUSIME PODROBIT KRESTANUM) a povolit spolecnou adopci deti (TO CO CHTELI LIDI NEJVIC).

nenavidim vsechny konzervativce a panbickare, jejichz ochrana "tradicni rodiny" primo zpusobuje, ze vic deti stravi detstvi v decacich, protoze to, ze by mely dve maminky nebo dva tatinky je podle nich horsi????????

homosexualove v Cesku maji byt spokojeni s tim, co dostavaji? maji vetsinu prav, tak je to v pohode?

co kdyby se to aplikovalo jinde? co kdyby existovalo "volebni pravo" a "volebni pravo pro zeny", kde muzi by mohli volit vsude, a zeny take, jen by nemohly volit prezidenta. je to fer? prece volebni pravo je tradicne jen pro muze. ale je to spatne, protoze je to diskriminace na zaklade pohlavi. na zaklade toho taky diskriminuje tahle saskarna jmenen "partnerstvi".

je to MANZELSTVI. NIC MIN NENI ROVNOPRAVNOST. BIBLE JE FIKTIVNI DILO A INSPIROVAT JIM JAKOUKOLIV LEGISLATIVU JE SILENSTVI. JE MI JEDNO, ZE TO DOSLOVNE NEVYCHAZI Z BIBLE. DISKRIMINACI PODPORUJE TA ODPORNA KRESTANSKA STRANA, VIME, ODKUD TO POCHAZI, I KDYZ TO EXPLICITNE NERIKATE.
