#that their teacher didn’t
Text
Some kids gets mad that their teacher talks about Jack and Ralph’s relationship and dares to entertain the idea of little crushes… and then other students annoyed that isn’t covered (aka me in school lol) is why I can’t be a 9th grade English teacher.
Because like I would love to talk about lord of the flies all day with people just reading the book for the first time. I LOVE doing that. But god I couldn’t take the pressure of like what is and isn’t okay to discuss in school.
Like I’m sorry a lot of required reading books do cover touchy subjects if you get into them. Idk how I would talk about the pig “right up her ass” scene as a teacher… I probably would avoid it at all costs. Even though you could probably talk about the deaths and be okay… idk how far you could go with the “did the boys eat Simon?” question that comes up. And if I couldn’t touch religion they would suck I think that’s part of the book!
But I do think it says a lot about how Golding thought ~boys~ would act in this scenario. And I think that scene is a good clue to the age old question “what would it be like if girls were on the island” because yeah… the pig they kill and then lodge a stick up the ass of for no reason really is a female pig/mother.

online buddy of mine (born in 2004) said “i strongly suspect the vast majority of ‘I'll always remember where I was on 9/11’ stories are not true. I simply don't believe that 75% of people were watching the news live at 8:45 in the morning on a Tuesday when the strangest thing happened.” and like. okay. we can talk about the aftermath in the 22 years since 9/11 and the horrific and evil jingoism that ruined countless lives in decades-long wars all we want. but i cannot overstate enough that 1) we still very much had a monoculture in 2001. most americans would watch either the today show or GMA. 2) as soon as that first plane hit every news station in the country was covering it. schools and businesses and break rooms turned on every tv. every radio. anything that had the ability to broadcast the news. (smartphones weren’t a thing. cell phones and the internet existed but they were new and fragile. unreliable. your best bet was still to sit there and watch. or listen.) and we all sat there and watched the second plane hit and the pentagon hit and the towers collapse and flight 93. so, yes: basically everyone who was alive and old enough to form lasting memories in 2001 remembers that day and the coverage. even people who weren’t near a tv or radio in real time remember where they were and what they were doing when they heard the news. they probably even remember the reason why they didn’t hear about it in real time. i was 5 years old in my first week of first grade and i remember it. it was like. the biggest thing to happen in this country since fucking. pearl harbor. bigger. there’s no need to downplay that.

Have you ever wanted to draw something but you fought due to your skill level at the time you decide not to do it
Holy god, yes. Still. My greatest advice is this: if you don’t know what you’re doing, find reference until you do. So many of my art assignments were weeks of planning. We’d do thumbnailing, reference gathering, material studies, all sorts of things before we even tackled the actual rendering.
Often feeling overwhelmed is a result of knowing the vibe of what I want but not knowing the specifics of how to get there. If you have enough reference, if you’ve staged it out, and you practice rendering what you want you can eventually get where you’re trying to go.

Obi-Wan, 14, after exactly one explanation of how to shave, in which his eyes were glazed over and he seriously considered a gender change so he could backtrack on this specific puberty and try the other one instead, -he heard Stewjoni periods aren’t that bad and he won’t have to upkeep his face every day, how long does it take to cultivate a beard so he doesn’t have to shave again???- takes the razor from his master, disappears into the bathroom, and then appears in the doorway straight outta Qui-Gon’s worst night terrors -the ones that were real and involved waking up to a Padawan having had a vision while still speaking dead languages and asking for flesh holding JUST SAY HUG YOU LITTLE SHIT- and they stare at each other for like twenty seconds straight without blinking before Qui-Gon’s shoulders sag and he lets out a sigh they’re gonna feel in the force all over this temple for days.
‘Where did your eyebrows go?’
‘They were itchy too.’
