Hello! So, many of you may not know this, but some (if not most) colleges in the United States offer free or drastically reduced price therapy/counseling!
It varies how much help they can offer, but even if they can’t help, they can refer you to someone who can! And if your school doesn’t have this, you can bring it up to the board of directors to show that there is demand for it, that’s how my school got it. Just wanted to let you college kids know that you have resources you may not know about, and again, you can get free or nearly free counseling depending on your school!
It’s especially good if you’re new to counseling and don’t know where to start, they can give you a direction of where to go and who to see.
“but AO3 *wants* writers on their platform, writers are providing a service for them, that’s how they get content.”
no, they are PROVIDING you a platform. for your content. as a service to you.
please, please, please learn how the internet works.
the companies that WANT you on the platform are the companies that are SELLING YOU TO ADVERTISERS.
*Facebook* wants you on their platform. *Tumblr* wants you on their platform. *FF.net* wants you on their platform. You are Facebook’s product. Facebook is not a service to you. It is an incentive for you to give them eyes and data to sell. And the second your eyes and data stop being profitable they will toss you under the bus.
That’s why fans made AO3. So we had a space that was ours, that wasn’t profiting off of us, so we wouldn’t get sold out.
The argument that AO3/OTW is exploiting writers is so laughable it’s sad.
when a fascist says “communist” or “globalist” or “cultural marxist” or “marxist” or basically if they have some kind of word they use to refer to as the “bad guys” what they really are talking about is, without fail, jewish people
Trump called himself a nationalist he called himself a nationalist he blatantly and knowingly called himself a nationalist fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck
At this point he could just flat out say he’s a fascist and conservatives would not give a shit
I 100% expect that’s what’s coming next.
How long until the NYT runs articles about “is nationalism actually good?” with the same false neutrality that’s helped legitimize everything else he’s done?
i just predicted and then immediately fulfilled the prophesy of running into a shiny pokémon in this one single random encounter. i am unto a god
unto a god
The other day I saw a murkrow pop up on Pokemon Go and I was like ‘I’ve caught a bajillion Murkrow but there’s always the chance this one is shiny even if it probably isnt’ AND IT WAS.
this post is now a shiny charm. likes charge reblogs cast
I was playing Pokémon Go one day and ran into a local player. At some point durning our conversation I mentioned I had enough candy to evolve a Magikarp, but I was holding out for a shiny one. Immediately after I said that I found and caught one.
Mongolians are cool because they’ve merged their traditional and modern ways of life so rather than having poverty due to losing all their important skills they just live in their yurts with their cows and 827474874mbs internet
sure their GDP in dollars is low but when you can survive like your anscestors did it doesn’t mean anything, nothing wrong with adding a motorcycle and wifi into the mix
Everyone should live like their ancestors did 1000 years ago but with the addition of wifi tbh
Adapt. Survive.
this is the single most inspiring piece of information I have yet to come across in all my moments in this world
hot take: the problem isnt the manic pixie dream girl. its the boring ass moody emotional leech guy she always gets paired with. we need more manic pixie dream characters. just give them partners who are as great as them or let them be happy alone! no more smart, beautiful, optimistic, kind girls getting paired with actual mosquitoes of men!
Also: make some manic pixie dream boys. If I wanna see romance maybe I wanna see a giddy boy full of positive energy who tells you fun facts about the constellations. Stop teaching boys they have to be moody and sad and they have to find salvation in a dream girl, this is how you breed Bad Men.
