I Have Nowhere Else To Document This So Here We Go:

SALLY AND POSEIDON SCENE???

THE RAIN TO SIGNIFY HE’S THERE??? NO WONDER SHE WAS SITTING IN THE RAIN IN THE BEGINNING OMG, THERE’S MORE TO IT THAN JUST THE WATER BEING CONNECTED TO HIS DOMAIN

he’s not the best father by a long shot but i’ll still give him his flowers for still seeing sally when most the other gods don’t even think about their mortal lovers once they’re done with them.

“You have no one to say it to, and that may be the most unfair part of it. You say it, and I’ll listen.”

ok go off poseidon ‼️‼️‼️

I mean look at this

I'm just know I'm not the only one who thought of Will Poulter,when I saw Yoon Chanyoung...

Thank you thank you a thousand times thank you 💗

Duolingo Sucks, Now What?: A Guide

Now that the quality of Duolingo has fallen (even more) due to AI and people are more willing to make the jump here are just some alternative apps and what languages they have:

"I just want an identical experience to DL"

Busuu (Languages: Spanish, Japanese, French, English, German, Dutch, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese, Polish, Turkish, Russian, Arabic, Korean)

"I want a good audio-based app"

Language Transfer (Languages: French, Swahili, Italian, Greek, German, Turkish, Arabic, Spanish, English for Spanish Speakers)

"I want a good audio-based app and money's no object"

Pimsleur (Literally so many languages)

Glossika (Also a lot of languages, but minority languages are free)

*anecdote: I borrowed my brother's Japanese Pimsleur CD as a kid and I still remember how to say the weather is nice over a decade later. You can find the CDs at libraries and "other" places I'm sure.

"I have a pretty neat library card"

Mango (Languages: So many and the endangered/Indigenous courses are free even if you don't have a library that has a partnership with Mango)

Transparent Language: (Languages: THE MOST! Also the one that has the widest variety of African languages! Perhaps the most diverse in ESL and learning a foreign language not in English)

"I want SRS flashcards and have an android"

AnkiDroid: (Theoretically all languages, pre-made decks can be found easily)

"I want SRS flashcards and I have an iphone"

AnkiApp: It's almost as good as AnkiDroid and free compared to the official Anki app for iphone

"I don't mind ads and just want to learn Korean"

lingory

"I want an app made for Mandarin that's BETTER than DL and has multiple languages to learn Mandarin in"

ChineseSkill (You can use their older version of the course for free)

"I don't like any of these apps you mentioned already, give me one more"

Bunpo: (Languages: Japanese, Spanish, French, German, Korean, and Mandarin)

I need all the help and luck I can get, I'm writing a make up exam for my finals 😭

so I got into grad school today with my shitty 2.8 gpa and the moral of the story is reblog those good luck posts for the love of god

YESYESYES WE NEED THISSSS

Piastri poleeeeeeeeeee

This year is really gonna be his time to shine I CAN FEEL IT

the sass on this boy is insane istg

getting ciaoed by a teenager in a haas while he overtakes your redbull is absolutely diabolical 💀

love the rookie lineup already. ayrton senna reincarnation according to toto wolff. wannabe-italian ferrari fanboy. fernando alonso's evil son. the newest sacrifice to rb junior team. max verstappen's next victim technically not a rookie. and jack doohan who is about to face the horrors that are alpine f1. great.

An update!

I finished up the lotion bottle (finally)

And I've used up two out of the five mini perfumes (no surprises there,they're tiny, half used and don't last long at all)

Replacing it on my list of things to use up is a half used facial cleanser for oily skin that my mom got for free and gave to me to use.

Wish me luck! 🍀

I have nowhere else to document this so here we go:

Gonna do a no-buy for makeup, skin and body care products because I tend to hoard and stock up without realising 😭 and I get gifted makeup that I haven't used up.

I've been meaning to go through things but with college being college I haven't actually done much. And now that it's a new year, I'm making it a mission of mine.

So this is going to be my formal attempt at using up what I have properly for about two months minimum (I might need to buy some necessary products like sunscreen by then)

Goal: use up as much of the half used things I've got.

The stuff I'm going to tackle first (and document) are:

• a few mini perfumes that I got as a gift (very small, and the smell doesn't last so they'll be the first to go lol)

• a small hand cream thats half used

•my old b&bw rose lotion (only about a third left in it so it shouldn't be hard)

•a lipbalm (I have a lipbalm addiction and have collected wayyyy too many so I have to stick to one and finish it😭) I'm going with a Nivea lip balm

• an almost empty tub of aloe vera gel (I use it pretty regularly but I need to make sure I use it,cuz I already got a replacement 😞)

I've technically got much more to tackle but these are what I'm going to document for now 💪🏻 I'll update this at the end of the month and whenever I finish one of the products on the list!!

There's literally no excuse for using it at this point, like, visit a legit website or two once in a while, you don't need a simplified robot generated answer just cuz it takes less time like bffr

False information, incorrect advice, loss of privacy and personal information, HORRIBLE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT, oh and ofc its reducing our ability to focus or read an entire article just because that takes a few extra minutes like COME ON

All of us, myself included (most definitely so) are losing our ability to focus or even deal with being bored with how easy and quick this shit is, it's terrible for our brains, READ A BIT MORE AND DONT GO FOR THE QUICKEST FUCKING OPTION JUST BECAUSE YOURE LAZY GET OFF YOUR STUPID ASS AND WAKE TF UP WE'RE LOSING OUR ABILITY TO FUNCTION WITHOUT CONSTANT AND QUICK INFORMATION

no sentence fills me with utter loathing so much as "i asked chatgpt"

It's on every language learning app I have (and I have quite a few) and it's so annoying ugh

the proliferation of ads on every major language app (many of which are copies of each other, too) is so annoying and sad. they all have the same marketing tactic. here's a pop-up for premium when you open the app. here's a little ever-present reminder of our premium sale (with a timer) on the top/bottom of the screen. here's a tab to subscribe. here's a timed ad for our premium service after your lesson. did you remember you can pay to get rid of our ads that weren't there a few years ago? don't you hate time watching these pesky ads instead of language learning? don't you know learners with premium are 40x more likely to finish their course bc they aren't constantly bombarded with ads? do you want premium? it's 60% off! it's 90% off! limited time offer! want to review the words you got wrong in your lesson? try premium! want to practice your listening skills exclusively? you guessed it. pay us! tired of our advertising? go onto another app and get the same thing. you'll come back to us, don't worry. you will pay or you will quit or you will push through but you won't escape our subscription service. want to pay for a 10 year subscription? it breaks down to $1.39 per month! it's cheaper to buy a yearly subscription upfront than pay per month, silly. we're going to highlight this deal in green so you will know you should definitely not miss out on this amazing offer! save now! pay now. pay forever
