It's similarly easy to grade when they don't even try but I don't like that as much because I like people to be actually trying and learning

I like when the students I'm grading get the problems right

that makes it really easy to grade (and also means they're understanding the material, I like when people understand)

when they get it wrong, unless they just don't even try, I have to go back and figure out what exactly they did wrong to figure out partial credit

money, anxiety, disability, request for help 

so, hey, social security has denied my disability application appeal, and guess what, we're behind on rent and I can't work and neither can @pillowcat and this decision is bullshit.

Look we need help. Desperately. we're in the hole pretty deep and getting deeper by the month and until and unless one of us gets on disability it's gonna keep that way. if anyone can help please please please

the PMD remake came out today and we need to get it but money D:

...we also still don't have the link's awakening remake

life tip: if you tell people you'll be back before leaving, you are entirely within your rights to announce your return by saying "Just as it was foretold, I have returned!"

apparently there were a ton of rpgs on the game gear, of all things??

it's amusing to me that shadow the hedgehog 100% speedruns take multiple months to complete

re: mh- 

it just feels like we're too overwhelmed to have this kind of responsibility

mh- 

well now we feel awful

made a pretty big mistake in the solutions we wrote to one of the homework assignments and now i think the professor we're taing for is upset at us

also he wants us to suspend grading until we can pick up some notes from him this afternoon and that means we won't be able to do any grading today at all and augh

this is sufficiently discouraging that

What precisely does "all rights reserved" mean anyway?

mh-, career stuff, future, finances, we're just a mess 

i don't knwo what to do

it feels like we can barely even manage a 10 or 15 hour work week

how are we going to survive going forward

we make barely enough right now for rent and groceries and a *little* bit of fun stuff on the side but we're currently working as a TA and being paid very well for the amount of work we do (compared to the general job market)

but we can't keep that position forever, once we graduate we go off to do something else and. what can we do that will make enough money to live but also not completely overwhelm us with responsibility

mh - 

kind of stressed and overwhelmed, having to grade a thing that we don't remember how to do and never really understood in the first place x.x

trying to read throuhg textbooks but not finding the specific answers we're needing

re: food crimes

eee, got a commission from @princessnapped@snouts.online!! this is a new form i'm trying on, the shape of a very old sona from like nine years ago

mightyena is Very Good

they could have called it a hand-and-a-half sword, that also refers to the same type of sword (one designed to be used with either one or two hands, between an arming sword and a longsword in length)

then again this also does the usual medieval-stuff-in-pop-culture thing where it uses "longsword" to refer to a one-handed weapon so yeah

Show thread

this game we're playing censors "bastard sword" as "dastard sword" and it is somewhat amusing
