#teaching woes

Teachers need to be honored more for all the sacrifices they make.

For example, today I had to watch Denethor, Steward of Gondor, eat a tomato, not just one time, but twice.

lmao sometimes dealing with the parents of my students is way worse in comparison to dealing with the students themselves 🙂

It’s honestly such a shame I got into Elden Ring now instead of earlier in the summer. My mind is thirsting to dive deep into the lore and do the kind of note taking I did when I was into The Silmarillion. Unfortunately my days are currently occupied with curriculum planning for Texas history. Yay.

shh, don't cry. when they're not in the inn, ed and stede are spending their days lounging about on the sand, luxuriating in the sun, and getting lost in each other's eyes just like this, ok?

Why are modern printers like this? I'm trying to print a hard copy of the story I'm working on and the printer is making me complete the damn 12 labors of Hercules to prove myself worthy of my hard copy

There are two wolves inside me. One wants to embrace a new hobby in dance so I can be active and feel elegant and graceful and strong. This wolf wants to try something new and exciting, finally indulging in something I've always had an interest in.

The other experiences such frustrating emotions on a near daily basis that I want to go back to boxing, which is arguably easier to break into since I've already done it before. This wolf doesn't think of elegance, she just wants to fuck shit up until her body's so overworked and warm it fogs up car windows without having to do anything but sit inside.

Which one do I fucking feed??

What was Big B talking about ?

His fighting style based on the teaching of the goddess? He learnt to brawl from an official "sponsorised by Sothis!" manual, or Rhea once held a brawling seminar and she wrecked him?

Or maybe Chevalier - the apostle - passed down his brawling techniques to the people living in Kupala ?

Not nice for Pat to have vaporised that mention, but I guess Religion BaD?

Pat : "we will write this huge and burly guy as a comic relief, stupid, greedy and wanting to seize glory. He can't express other un-manly feelings like wanting to help people, or having remorses, or wanting to offer some tribute to a guy he previously respected."

Pat's Constance wants to scold and rekt Aelfric because he got what he deserved for "meddling" with a tool Sothis apparently "commissioned", but FE16!Constance wants to bring him peace and know that the Chalice wasn't "commissioned" by Sothis, but it she crafted it herself!

The "commissioned" thing is sort of relevant, because earlier Aelfie tells Billy that, from what he could research about the Chalice from the few records left, it was supposed to have been created by Seiros...

We know that's bull, and Constance has more "closer to the truth" intel about the Chalice than a Cardinal - again it highlights how House Nuvelle, being direct descendants of Noa, have more insight about Nabatean and Nabatean tools than even "trusted by Nabatean" humans - at least for the Chalice.

For something new :

"Openly work" for the Empire? What does he mean by "openly"? Is he doing merc work but cannot openly claim to be an Adrestian agent?

Is he suggesting that he already knows who will be his next employer? Given how Supreme Leader has been planning her invasion months before the events of the Holy Tomb, and his surprise, I wonder if Arun-Thales already made contact with Metodey saying that he'll be hired by someone who has even a higher rank than he has (higher than regent? it can only mean one or two persons) later on.

Yeah... not even want to chase him uh? Was she aware this clown was the one Uncle hired to assist her for the invasion of the monastery? Or realised it?

Bar Pat adding some "Religion BaD" for shit'n'giggles, JP!Metodey makes it clearer that he has already been hired - or knows he will be hired - for a grand mission : with all of his lines in this chapter, imo it's made clear that Metodey is participating in Aelfie's lil'scheme for now, but has already a contract with Arun-Thales where he will be incorporated/or at least recognised, as an Imperial agent.

Supreme Leader somehow knows it, and will not pursue him as he will later be of use during her own invasion of Garreg Mach.

"Thief Leader" in JP mentions some "oh so great noble's secret mission", imo it refers to Arun-Thales' mission (or even Supreme Leader? It's not the first time she has to fight someone she hired to kill a group of people including herself lol) and not to Aelfie's - Pat's mention of "infidels" might instead refer to Aelfie's mission (the one who organised this mess), Thief Leader wants to complete Aelfie's mission and he calls Aelfie's a noble, since the guy is a cardinal, obviously his enemies or the ones he wants dead are "infidels" after all!

Tl;Dr : more mumbo jumbo nonsensical stuff regarding Pat's Metodey, even if the script isn't that clear, JP!script highlights more how Metodey is actually biding his time until Supreme Leader becomes Emperor and marches on Garreg Mach.

I am alive...

Just in a depressive slump after changing jobs. It is a better job and the pay will get much better. It's the next logical step in my career.

I just didn't expect the work culture to be so crushing.

This Meme Probably Only Applies To Me…

But I’m making it because I’m frustrated and it’s so true…

...no so i've been seeing this particular picture around on my dash, right. where it's more zoomed out and subsequently harder to clock what's going on (and also the contrast on my computer isn't the greatest sometimes but y'know).

and this entire time i thought it was just stede facing the water with his arms outstretched.

...i dID NOT REALIZE UNTIL RECENTLY THAT IT IS, IN FACT, ED HOLDING STEDE FULLY OFF THE GROUND, AND COULD BE STEDE LEAPING INTO HIS ARMS OR ED TWIRLING HIM AROUND SHDJKSDHSKL LIKE????????
