My friend as the same reading comprehension as tumblr and I-
Basically I texted the group chat about a fake story is my psych class. This story was an introduction to implicit bias and victim-blaming.
Long story short, only me and four other people said that the murderer was at fault for the victims death. Everyone else said the victim. (This is the first text I sent to the group chat.)
Short story long, the victim's husband had to take a ferry to work and would only be back long enough to see her for a few minutes every day before she had to work. She hated this arrangement and instead of talking with her husband like you should in any healthy relationship she decided to go around the same part of the city he worked in (the part you needed to take a ferry to) and having affairs before rushing home before he got back. When the affairs felt a little too real, she would break them off very roughly, leaving her lovers (unknowing to being the side piece) really hurt and upset. One day, she broke it off roughly with one of them but realized that she had left her wallet at their place. She needed her money to pay for her ticket home before her husband got back. They refused to let her in their home no matter what she said, so she tried to get a free rise on the ferry since she rode every night and promised to pay the next day. The ferryman said he couldn't do that, so in her desperation to get home before her husband, she decided to take the dangerous path around the river. A path that was full of highway men. She was confronted by one of said highway men for her money when she said she had none they tussled, and he ended up stabbing and killing her. (This is what I texted after my friend responded.)
So the reason I say my friend has the same reading comprehension as tumblr?
He read the first post and assumed it was the husband that killed her. He was a fascinating look into implicit bias. (something that has always piqued my interest ever since I found out what it was my sophomore year of high school)
And it also gave me the most horrendous flashbacks to the TERF feminist tumblr posts that littered Pinterest and my pins because I was a very impressionable 11 year old before I got tumblr and found out what I actually believed. Like it went straight from the victim-blaming of most of my class to blaming an innocent bystander who had no idea what was even going on (and probably never will) simply because of an implicit bias.
Holy shit we are fascinating.

I had to go back and look, because it’s been haunting me ever since I saw Sam’s post that Grant was supposed to be at the middle podium for Game Changer Bingo^3: they used Grant’s stamp for the shoot and then made a mockup of Brennan’s in post.

I saw a TikTok recently that really changed my view on education and learning. I forget the exact quote but it said something along the lines of “learn in good faith, and the grades will come”
So often I find myself obsessing over getting an A and not taking time to enjoy the fact that I am studying what middle school/high school me dreamed of. My younger self would hear about the things I am accomplishing and would be so excited. So that raises the question, if I picked these classes, why should my desire for a 4.0 outweigh letting myself enjoy the learning process and just doing the best I can? Good grades come to those who like and resonate with the material being taught. Maybe instead of focusing on memorization for some topics, emphasizing and spending time on relating the content and deepening my understanding is better. I've found that my chem lecture is so fascinating and just having the opportunity to learn more about the complexity of the world around us is so cool. While reaction rates can be boring, when thinking about it, catalysts have huge biological impacts in our body's daily functioning. Life simply would not be able to do what it does without these reactions. I am learning about details that relate to the reactions that allow me to have the energy to move. Learning becomes more valuable when you don't focus on the destination( a grade) but think about it as a journey.

Chronic illness is so discouraging…every time I have something important going on I get sick.
I wish I had a body that was able to keep up with me.
