not to be dramatic or anything but the culture of certain types of education where they assign workloads with unreasonable schedules without factoring in any other work you might be doing as a job or for other classes, all without recognizing that free time is vital to restoring personal energy necessary to actual enthusiasm about education and this leaving no time for personal activities, is genuinely soul sucking and exhausting. jail. jail for the warped education system for One Thousand Years
#this is about my AP classes#and i have understanding teachers!!!#I am a person who loves learning. i voluntarily attended a psuedo-summer school because i have that passion for knowledge#but sometimes i want to grab the education system by the neck and shake it and scream 'people need lives outside school#so they can actually care about school at all!!'#students learn nothing if they are exhausted!! students dont care about learning if they are taught that learning is exhuasting!!!!#people need free time to be fully people! sorry!! we need eight hours of sleep and time to eat and socialize and satisfy the monkey brain!!#my monkey brain was not satisfied today and it is SHOWING >:(

they banned ap psych in florida cuz the class ap discusses sexuailty and gender which violates ron desantis' piece of shit dont say gay law so fuck you ron for that
in the college board statement they say it was banned because "teaching foundational content on sexual orientation and gender identity is illegal under state law" which is bullshit because these gov leaders believe anything lgbtq is a brain disease so you'd think theyd keep the brain learning class
they banned ap african american studies because "it lacks educational value and historical accuracy" which is making it easier for them to erase black history that is so intertwined with the history of this country that most everything here is so deeply antiblack
this mf has his head so far up his ass that hes ruining our education system even more than it already was
#fuck you ron desantis i hate you so much I hate you i hate you i hate yoy#and cuz me nd my friends are tryna reach our counselors to see whats up or if theyre rearranging schedules and keep mentioning him#i keep getting ron desantis ads ab if i want to elect him president of the united fucking states of America#and then it was an ap class i was interested in taking cuz i thought itd be cool to learn about so fuck you ron for that too#and THEN it was the only class i knew ppl in. ljke half the class was ppl ive seen before or talked too#im ranting ab missing out on the class nd not seeing my friends but its really a bigger issue than that#like its scary hes using his power to attack lgbtq communities and kids and then he has enough support that hes rallying for head seat#its not safe here at all i cannot fucking wait to leave#ron desantis#us politics#ap psychology#college board#lgbtq#so mad im shaking im so sorry if this doesnt make any sense but school starts in a week exactly nd im tryna figure out the little issue#l speaks#keep talking l#ranting in the tags because i can#black history#racism

Enough of the jock Stan nerd kyle vs jock Kyle nerd Stan debate. THEY ARE BOTH BOTH!!!
#sick of ppl one noting the boys#these fuckers CANONICALLY have so many aspects of their personalities#and yes sp canon is convoluted as hell but seriously? you can’t reduce any of the kids to a single trait#south park#style#them#lmm voice: look at my son#look at this i learned something today ass bitch#Kyle is the dude taking all the ap classes and doing too many extracurriculars and KICKING ASS on the basketball court#Stan is the football captain blasting midwest emo music and rambling about his dnd campaign in the locker room#I fucking stand by this okay

i love puppet history because it’s everything i hate about school-taught history. it’s entertaining it’s not really about wars specifically (unless they’re funny) it focuses on people’s specific lives it focuses on important and cool women it’s about people more than it is events and numbers and dates it’s got songs it’s about actually interesting topics it’s literally just such a good time. and it’s even got a little guy teaching it :)
#shoutout to my ap world teacher my sophomore year though i loved that class bc he made it fun#but yeah. i really don’t like the way history is taught in schools#which is why i love puppet history bc it’s actually about the cool shit!! like it’s actually interesting and fun and i love it!!#watcher#watcher entertainment#watcher network#puppet history

Slowly realizing that I was taught twice as much about the bubonic plague than I was about the shoah. I feel like that's telling. We never learned anything about the shoah specifically, just that the axis and allied powers existed, that Pearl Harbor happened, and we won. Because those are, apparently, the only important parts of WWII
#jumblr#jewish politics#jewish history#personal thoughts tag#antisemitism tw#shoah tw#shoah mention tw#i knew that the black plague killed ~33% of europe but not that the shoah killed over 50% of jews in europe. what's up with that.#i only 'discovered' and learned about this outside of school. one of the largest genocides in WORLD history? we don't need to teach that! 🫥#and i took MANY kinds of history classes in my (public) school. they were honors classes too! world history classes!!!!!!#i only took a class specific to the US three times (once for general US history then twice for state history classes)#wait! we did read one short story by elie wiesel in my AP english class. in my senior year of high school.#i can't specifically remember which story it was :/ it absolutely wasn't Night besause i read that on my own#no this isn't me saying that we shouldn't have learned about the plague - it was a horrific time period. but so was the shoah

I know this is a very unoriginal observation (much like any other), but I'm finally reading The Great Gatsby, and even I wouldn't describe men the way Nick does.
#queer#lgbt#lgbtq#i did watch the 2013 film for my ap english class though (i think they didn't have enough time left for us to actually read it)#like the way he described tom was very. superfluous in my opinion. something you want to tell the class NICK (joking)#i find myself really partial to the general writing styles of that time though#i haven't even gotten that far in the book either i'm just barely past the part where daisy is introduced#so nick is just waffling about his family history and how he rents for $80/month#which is relatable when you consider inflation. nick i hope you eat you landlord#i can see why people don't like this writing but i am endlessly fascinated by the prose#maybe i should just free myself from the impulse to hide behind layers of self-censorship and live like nick does#tbh tho i still prefer non-fiction and textbooks BUT fiction is valuable and is useful#fiction is like play - it lets you explore different possibilities and thought in a safe environment

I failed to submit multiple homework assignments because I spent my midnight study time reading bbts instead. And you know what? Completely worth it, have a croissant.
✨🥐✨
Genuinely saved my day when I felt terrible on multiple occasions, I appreciate you so much.
hell yeah! i’m a homework hater (as in, hater of the concept of it on principle) so i support you doing something fun instead of a few assignments.
and i’m so glad it has brightened your day ❤️
#i’ve been on my Homework Is Bad soapbox since high school#like for a while i was the anxious kid who couldn’t do anything fun until i finished every assignment#which meant a lot of days between [sport] and [other extracurriculars] and homework i didn’t do ANYTHING fun#and at some point in high school i was like okay this can’t be it. this can’t be worth whatever learning benefits i’m supposedly getting#and then someone made the mistake of pointing me to the Race to Nowhere documentary#after which i became fully insufferable#like i still did the homework. but by god i was disillusioned.#think about it though!! some teachers are instructed to give an hour of homework per night PER CLASS#more for AP sometimes? as if school is the only possible worthwhile thing kids could do with their time#and so much of it is busywork#i wasted so much of my life on busywork in retrospect. anyway#whoops sorry you activated one of my unskippable cutscenes#also sorry if you meant like college homework. which is at least eminently more skippable anyway#asks#my fic

i legitimately cannot wrap my head around how and why companies like coca cola and amazon and every other big name you can think of continue to prioritize profits and increase prices when nobody could afford it. these companies pay their business costs and then they have billions left over for the top employees... but the top employees could just get less? for a year or two? while things get back on track? it doesn't have to be this way? this is what the government should be regulating, not schools
#food prices went up 20% last year and another 11 in January alone#makes my blood boil#then fucking desantis is trying to take ap classes and books out of classrooms like dude#worry about something else

In 2015 a Russian media outlet (Izvestia I think?) accused the State Department of writing an email commissioning an activist to accuse certain Russian political figures of being homosexuals and the US Embassy in Moscow responded by marking up the supposed email with corrections because it didn't fit the necessary bureaucratic format and then asked Izvestia to send the Embassy a copy to proof-read first if they were going to make up emails
Go on, pop this bad boy into a translator, I know you want to
And here's an image for funsies:
(The signoff, Госдеп, is short for State Department and honestly so much easier to say than State Department, DoS, or the short-but-confusing "State." Tragically, the paragraph a NYTimes article from 2017 devoted to the existence of the word was not so pithy.)
#it's the 'REALLY??? GMAIL???' that does it for me#tbf my sense of humor was impacted by taking half a journalism class and having to learn about the AP guidebook for How To Write Words#but the LGBTI (with I underlined) is such an 'AP stylebook mistake SPOTTED!' ass error#well thats not related to the gmail thing the gmail thing is just hilarious by itself#politiposting#rambles

She could fix anyone. The only one she can't fix is herself. It makes her beautiful
