Critical Thinking Tips

1. Did you actually watch the video you want to discuss or did you just look at the thumbnail and assume you knew what it was about?

2. Did you actually read the article you want to discuss or did you just look at the headline and assume you knew what it was about?

3. Who told you about this thing? What's the source of this information, how well do you know them, and why do they deserve your trust?

4. How likely is it that this one source is the only one that knows a big piece of information that nobody else is talking about?

5. Is getting outraged or depressed about this actually going to be helpful?

6. Are you assuming the worst explanation for something that might just be regular nonsense?

7. Is this actually hurting anyone or do you just think it's weird?

8. Are you assuming a generalization about an entire group is true about every single member?

9. Are you deciding that harmful phobias and stereotypes are actually okay if they're against people you don't like?

10. How likely is it that someone in a desperate situation is going to think the solution to their problems is sending messages to low-influence strangers on Tumblr?

The Tasks. They're Growing.

okay, so I was gonna go organize my "saving this for future reference" tag and I just...

No. I need to Change My Theme before I can do that. The icon's cute, but the blog looks horrid and This Will Not Do. So! Any theme suggestions?

I mostly work on desktop, but if you got one that's nice for both DT and mobile, excellent.

I've never seen the mental health one before! This should be everywhere!!! I was dealing with severe anxiety for eight years before I went to the doctor because I thought everyone had that, and then he didn't believe me and told me to get off social media (I didn't have any accounts back then). This scale would've been so helpful as my "normal" was a 7 or 8 and my "wow, feeling way more relaxed than normal" was a 6.

My face is having uncontrollable spasms. Great. It hurts really, really, really bad.

I think part of why I have trouble explaining pain to the doctor is when they ask about the pain scale I always think “Well, if someone threw me down a flight of stairs right now or punched me a few times, it would definitely hurt a lot more” so I end up saying a low number. I was reading an article that said that “10” is the most commonly reported number and that is baffling to me. When I woke up from surgery with an 8" incision in my body and I could hardly even speak, I was in the most horrific pain of my life but I said “6” because I thought “Well, if you hit me in the stomach, it would be worse.”

hiii! on the topic of sketchbooks i found this vid a couple days ago and it was so interesting!! its a very pretty sketchbook but what i like is how the person explains their thoughts behind their studies, and how they actually use the sketchbook as a "learning tool". it made got me very motivated to try some stuff tbh: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7REkgRr20I

Girl help how do I usher in the Era of Monsters?

Both the corporate elites and the government have proven themselves to be untrustworthy and I don’t think trying to reason with them is gonna work, so turning all the working-class citizens into cool monsters will finally give us the ability to stop them.
