SHADOW AND BONE
↳book > screen
Kaz woke to the sharp sense of ammonia. His head jerked back as he returned fully to consciousness.
He was just stalling for time as he tested the tightness of the cuffs around his wrists. He let his fingers feel along the length of chain as far as they were able, still puzzling over where Van Eck had brought him. Though Kaz had never met the man himself, he’d had cause to learn the layout of Van Eck’s house inside and out. Wherever they were, it wasn’t the merchant’s mansion.
“Since you didn’t bring me here to philosophize, what business?” It was the question spoken at the opening of any meeting. A greeting from a peer, not a plea from a prisoner. - Six of Crows

And yet there’s apparently no money to fund a show that’s already delivered TWO successful seasons 🙄

just putting it out there that i could read every single script of every episode of the six of crows spinoff, find out every single piece of information about it beforehand and STILL watch every episode multiple times if they still decide to make it
just jot that down netflix and whoever else can still make that show happen in case you dont already damn well know how dedicated the fanbase is

being bitchy about the SAB/SOC cancellation but it makes me even more bitter about how the show treated Inej, because I thought we might finally get her canon backstory and depth in the spinoff and now I'm just....they really just threw all that away for some surface-level badass scenes
Like...no Menagerie explanation. No incinerator climb. No Heleen or Dunyasha showdown. No "I can help you." No early days Dregs Trio. No flashbacks of Baby Inej with her parents. No Van Eck hostage situation. No Dock fight. No "I would come for you." No second Bathroom Scene with "It's not easy for me either." No Captain Ghafa. No harbor scene where she holds hands with her boy and thinks that the world is made of miracles. Just...what a waste.

Super valid point from someone on Reddit! Reach out to your other fandom friends if you can and gather the troops to fight ✨⚡️⚔️

Wow just found out that Eric has gone up against Netflix before the strike over unpaid residuals for Bird Box—and WON.
Netflix had to fork out over a million dollars (incl. interest) to Eric alone. The ruling also meant Netflix had to cough up an additional $42 million in unpaid residuals to writers of other production.
So you know he was already in their bad books
you can’t tell me that this cancellation by Netflix wasn’t at least partially motivated by the fact that Eric Heisserer, one of our fearless show-runners, was on the contract negotiating committee during the WAG strike.
Yeah, S&B may have been expensive—but it was a hit show with a cult following. A following so dedicated they even came out on mass to support the writers during the strike. We saw countless times during the strikes how petty the studios were—it wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest if this was just a lil bit of revenge

As an introvert, you can be your own best friend or your worst enemy. The good news is we generally like our own company, a quality that extroverts often envy. We find comfort in solitude and know how to soothe ourselves. Even our willingness to look at ourselves critically is often helpful. But, we can go too far. We can hoard responsibility and overlook the role others play. We can kick ourselves when we’re down. How many times have you felt lousy about something, only to get mad at yourself for feeling lousy?

How to Get Good Grades and Still Have a Life
Work Smarter, Not Harder
During my last two years of my undergraduate, I came across this notion of working smarter, not harder (a.k.a. working more efficiently to maximize your grades). This is one of a few main concepts that raised my GPA by 1.0 whole point. Here are some tips that if you truly follow, you’ll see incredible results.
Stay on top of the work
Review lecture slides or textbook material before going to class
Go to class (or if online, schedule a regular time to review the material)
Complete all practice problems because chances are it’ll be on the final
Own your note taking method; either on your laptop, on lecture slides, or a notebook (and don’t think of dramatically switching it up half way through the semester)
Summarize your notes at the top or bottom with a few quick bullets on what the lecture focused on to help you organize later on
Ask questions when you are uncertain or need clarification
How Can I Work Smarter?
Go through the course syllabus for learning objectives and course description to see what areas are to be focused on
Create a daily, weekly, and monthly study plan and don’t be scared to adjust
Get enough sleep; this one is my number one tip, there’s nothing worse than hearing about people pull all-nighters before an exam (I’ve also know people who have accidentally slept through and missed it entirely)
Eat, eat, eat (and eat well); fuel your body and your brain with superfoods and plant goodness b/c everything is connected and it will pay off than eating artificial vending machine junk (trust me)
Use the 50/10 rule (50 minutes focus, 10 minute break), or whatever version you find most effective
Find your study place and rotate (i.e. use library for one course and a coffee shop for another)
Make school your 9-5pm job - the top people in my program go to the library at 9am to start their “job” and it’s so so important
Study Plan
Focus on the course(s) you try to avoid them out (and try to focus on them at the beginning of the week when you feel more motivated)
Always start study sessions with what you reviewed last time
Plan sessions in 2-3 hour blocks throughout the day and spend time studying a different course in each session (or at least one different course in-between the same course to reduce boredom)
Create practice tests and quiz yourself on material by shifting memorization to true understanding
Use summary notes to help destress before exams
Create study groups (if that’s your cup of tea) to quiz each other and explain concepts
Happy studying!
