PSA: Do not put undiluted essential oils on your skin! I’ve seen two patients this week with chemical burns from essential oils. It can make literal craters in your skin and you don’t feel it until it’s already done damage.
If you want to use essential oils into your skin, mix a few drops into a large quantity of neutral oil or lotion.
(Also, don’t buy from doTerra or Young Living. They’re pyramid schemes, their prices suck, and their reps make false health claims. Just get your essential oils from a regular store.)
The second girl at least read the book to confirm that it was shit, she even had Capote on deck as backup. Chick 1 is just lazy
Nope. Girl 2 saw that Girl 1′s absolutely accurate analysis was being shut down just because it wasn’t stated in an intellectual way (in spite of its validity). So Girl 2 reinforced Girl 1′s opinions in solidarity and made sure that it was absolutely clear that Girl 1 was factually correct. WITHOUT taking credit for her observations (”kim is right” instead of “Actually, kim”)
Girls supporting Girls.
Girls not letting other girls be treated poorly.
If you read thirty pages of a book and hate it, that’s a good analysis. Girl 1 literally said, “It sucked for these reasons, and I only got through 30 pages.” She was absolutely paying attention and trying to get it. But if all you get is a headache, fuck that book.
person: I have a simple and uncomplicated relationship with both my parents. While they occasionally annoy me, I generally respect them and enjoy being around them. They have always been supportive of me, are never manipulative or overbearing, and their treatment of me throughout my childhood has not caused me to develop any anxieties or other mental issues. I have always felt safe and secure around them, and I trust them.
me: …okay… I mean, that definitely sounds fake, but… okay…
Studyblr Culture: How the Internet Changes Students’ Perception on Studying
Hello everyone! My name is Sarabel and I’m a student in BA Creative Writing. In one of my GE subjects (English 13: Writing as Thinking), we’re asked to write a paper about how technology changes people, their way of life, methods, etc. Afterwards, we have to write a summarized version of it to submit to the Digital Disruption Asia-Pacific Writing Competition 2018 hosted by The New York Times.
For my paper, I’ll be writing about Studyblr. But since there hasn’t been much research about it, I will be conducting a survey to gather the data I need. It will be a tremendous help to me if you can spare a few minutes of your time to answer it. You only need to be a current student (high school, college, or graduate) and have an active studyblr to be qualified to participate in the survey.
The survey will ask about your study habits and methods before and after studyblr, your post-making process, the people you’ve interacted with in the community, your general views on Studyblr, and some basic socio-demographic questions.
Having Depression for years is so wild because you just kinda become?? Desensitized to your own suffering?? Like yeah I want to kill myself every day. Oh, oh yeah normal people don’t have that????? Oh shit I forgot
this is whats called a ‘coffer dam’, you basically build some walls, drop them in the water, tie them together, and then pump out the water from your new hole in the water so you can build while staying dry
its oddly not that hard- the flippin ROMANS were able to do it with logs and mud
occasionally particularly devious people would use this to hide treasure or tombs underneath the river so its not only impossible to find but impossible to get to without an engineer division
that last part gives me ideas for campaigns
“Not that hard – the ROMANS were able to do it” – people seriously underestimate how advanced some ancient cultures were and the organized effort it takes to come up with something like this and actually implement it. The Romans had heated floors, glass windows and ceilings that could be rotated to reflect what you were eating (forests for game, sea landscapes for fish). Hell, the Greeks built cameras and moving robots. The Minoans, who lived four thousands years ago and were wiped out by a tsunami three times as powerful as the one which devasted Japan in 2011, had running water and modern toilets. And let’s not get into how China basically invented everything centuries before anyone else.
Bottom line: just because someone was already doing it thousands of years ago, doesn’t mean it’s not very difficult and an extraordinary feat of engineering.
someone: you build how many bridges on a single military campaign…?
