Decided to do stuff differently on this account. I’m going to be posting lesson plans for different languages weekly on Sunday night and I’ll take requests on what to post as well

please stop scrolling and take the time to read this.

i don't think people understand the extent of the horror happening in palestine right now. "death" means nothing to people because of desensitisation so let me just tell you what white phosphorus is. it's being used in israeli munitions and has been and will continue to be fired across gaza and the palestinian borders.

white phosphorus burns when it comes into contact with oxygen (at nearly 800°C or 1500°F. the human body can withstand ~50°C for reference.) the air you breathe in ignites and it is near impossible extinguish. it sticks to clothing and skin and is very difficult to remove because it will continue to ignite in air. it burns flesh up to the bone and even past the bone because it penetrates tissue and is absorbed VERY easily. if you inhale it it'll destroy your respiratory tract and lungs. it can cause failure in multiple organs including the liver, kidneys and heart. it is being released in one of the most densely populated places on earth.

the only way to treat someone exposed to white phosphorus is to submerge them in saline or water and to pick out the substance with forceps, and when you undress a wound the substance can re-ignite. this is just ONE weapon that is being used to kill palestinian people right now. palestine does not have access to medical care, humanitarian aid, power, or internet. their hospitals are being bombed. gaza is one of the most densely populated places in the world with over 50% of the population being children. many children are the sole survivors of their families. there are videos of children experiencing panic attacks and symptoms of ptsd. the fact that israel has committed war crimes in plain sight means that we can only imagine what will happen to the palestinians in complete darkness.

israel has and will continue to deny this. your interests and fandom will still be here, you will wake up tomorrow morning and see your friends and family, but an entire nation of people are being wiped off the map. being silent is being complacent. reblog, spread information, tell people in real life, attend protests, sign petitions, call your government offices, at the very least be angry and upset and horrified because once you become numb and indifferent and hopeless the oppressors will have already won.

what's happening right now is more than a genocide and once it becomes a part of history we'll wonder how the world let this happen. genocides have been part of all nations. just because it is far away does not mean you don't have to be concerned. the fact that YOUR governments and YOUR idols and the people around YOU are supporting the mass eradication of an entire group of people should scare you. it shouldn't make you feel anything less than sick and angry and disgusted. DO something about it, no matter how small you feel your voice is, because palestinians no longer have one.

[edit] links to some helpful reblogs: one & two

post on how you can help palestine

learn about palestine with this masterlist of info

+ a further reblog of mine

[edit 2] about palestinians "not having a voice" at the time i wrote this post internet connection was cut off entirely and even journalists weren't able to report for a period of time — that is all i meant by that. they of course have a voice and i never meant to undermine how people are risking their lives in gaza to get information out there and i apologise if thats what people took from it, it was not my intention but it is entirely my bad. please continue to spread information and updates from gaza as they come.

This is so true. However I drank coffee before bed one time and I had no trouble sleeping (more than usual cus I naturally have bad sleep habits) I did wake up staring at the wall but other than that I slept fine

"Dont drink coffee after 2 PM" is such a neurotypical issue that sounds made up. Such a thing couldnt happen to me, ADHD Georg, who has coffee past 9:30 PM and can still fall asleep freely because I have a natural toxicity resistance to caffeine.

As much as I agree it’s this. I actually do enjoy other teas. However chai tops all of them.

well theres Americanized/British tea which is just like. A bag of herbs you soak in hot water and the juices seep out. Tea like teavana tea. Then there is chai which is Indian, true tea

Tea = chai

Any other tea = ctrl+c ctrl+v gone wrong

I’m starting Ikennas challenge #speakintwoweeks for language learning.

I’m going to do it with French because I promised myself that I wouldn’t do another language until I scored either a c1 or a c2 in my proficiency exam

My method for exams.

Situation #1

Take all the lecture notes for that unit and make them into mind maps. (Or be deranged and make murder maps I find the latter to be more fun)

Once you do that you can clearly see the connections made by each topic.

For any facts you can use the active recall system with flash card or the feiynman technique (I’ll do a list on that too)

And do practice questions and past papers and save them in a folder

After a few days of doing this you’re going to research your topic and see what other extra info you can grab (preferably things you know the test is about but anything that interest you about the subject works as inspiration)

The day before the test you’re going to go over the practice and the past papers and review your facts one last time.

Any other exam study tips that I should touch on?

I have two different strategies for when I’m studying in an online class setting. (This could also work in an in person setting depending on situation)

So for my korean class lessons are way more bite size.

They are split up into units with one lecture and one quiz per unit.

Since it’s a way more strict structure I do this strategy.

Watch lecture and take small notes during the lecture (most important things things you think may be on the quiz)

Then use the lecture notes posted by the teacher to really get a grasp on the subject. (If the teacher doesn’t post lecture notes you can ask them too or do extra research on the topic which I recommend)

Then study using your preferred method (lmk if you want me to post mine)

By the time the quiz comes around you should be prepare or at least have a good grasp on the subject. (Exams. I use a little different of a strategy I’ll post that soon)

Now for the second strategy.

In my introduction psychology class There are multiple lectures per unit and not many lecture notes so I rely on more what I like to call on sight active recall to help me here since I don’t have lecture notes to go back to.

I will watch the video or lecture and then as soon as it is done I will write down whatever I remember (this is where the online preference comes in)

After I do that I will try to make sense of everything I wrote and make connections (a lot of people do mind maps but I’m apparently crazy and put mine up on the wall with red string like a murder case)

After that I will rewatch the video or lecture and add in any details that I want to remember or fill in gaps of knowledge

Then (I have adhd so this is how I learn personally it might not work for others) I will make my notes look pretty. (The point is make them seem like you’re just drawing)

Then repeat based on lecture AFTER A BREAK (I don’t promote bad study habits even though we all have them. If you have to stay up all night at least take a nap in between study sessions)
