Sometimes I think Hiruzen got some kind of weird divine message at the moment of Kakashi's birth. Something like:
Hiruzen, smoking in his office: eh, my life is hard
A voice in his head, sounding suspiciously like Danzo: hey, this is the birth of the one to whom you (and the next few generations) will pass on all the problem children
Hiruzen, interested: and when can I start doing that?
Voice: in six years
Hiruzen, unhappy: eh, that's a long time to wait, but it'll do
Hiruzen, handing Kakashi to Minato at the age of five: I'm giving you a year to make him a good babysitter
Minato, shocked: excuse me?
Hiruzen, disgruntled: damn it, Minato needs a team of students to make him a good hokage, but he's also needed on the battlefield, what to do
Hiruzen, looking at Kakashi: boy, you're 6 years old now, it's time to become a chunin, the clock is ticking, someone needs to watch the kids while Minato is on the battlefield
Hiruzen: hmm, time to end the war and pass the hat to Minato, he needs to spend more time on the battlefield, but then he'll be distracted by his team.... But those kids aren't little kids either, they should be on their own by now. That's right!
Hiruzen, looking at Kakashi: Boy, how old are you now? 10? It's time to become a jonin and take charge of the team, I'm tired of pretending you don't, you'll be in charge instead of Minato
Hiruzen, looking at Itachi, Tenzo, and Shisui(about the last one, that's my personal headcanon, sorry, I'm weak for him): I have genius and powerful kids in the anbu, I need to choose which team to send them to
Hiruzen, looking at the team where Kakashi is: right here, after all, who can handle genius kids better than a genius teenager
Hiruzen, after the massacre of the Uchiha clan: well that's too bad, we need to somehow eliminate Kakashi from the anbu so he'll have Sasuke and Naruto on his team 5 years from now
Hiruzen, 2 years later, when Asuma, Gai, and Kurenai came to him: well finally, I've been waiting for you guys
Hiruzen, three years later: Kakashi, here's your team, these are the two most troubled kids in the village and the girl not from the clan
Kakashi: Fucking hell
(I have a headcanon that Team 7 sometimes left their kids with Kakashi)
Sakura: we're going on vacation for the weekend
Kakashi: yeah, okay, have a great trip
Sasuke: you stay with the kids
Kakashi: firstly, I'm a hokage, not a babysitter, and secondly, what kids?
Sakura: firstly, I'm the head of the hospital
Sasuke: secondly, Naruto and Hinata are coming too
Kakashi: you're all crazy
Lol, Kakashi will babysit Boruto and Sarada's kids and no one will be surprised, everyone's used to it.

my prof just explained on the syllabus that he’s included more points in the class than we needed to pass, so we could skip up like?? 20 small assignments/quizzes/participation!! and still get a very high grade!!
the idea was that we could focus on assignments that played to our strengths - only do the participation stuff if we like to talk out loud - only do the quizzes/readings if we want to do the class remotely - only do online discussions if we like to talk and share opinions but struggle with anxiety in class ect.
and that’s cool enough but then he pulled up DnD character sheets with drawings he’d done of these hypothetical student player classes and how our various accessibility needs could be gamified to ‘max out’ different aspects of the class to get high grades and like!!!!!
hell yeah!!!! let’s treat accessibility in higher education not just as a necessity but as the fun, engaging, and creative aspect of learning that it is!!! I love this!!
EDIT: For proper credit or further questions about his system please find my professor on twitter @/kurtishanlon

a raven father (i call him "pants") I've been feeding sometimes likes to sit outside my window and either wait for more food or just listen to the stuff I'm watching while I draw. Today's a colder day so he likes to fluff up a bit, and I kid you not :
this is an accurate representation of my view
