please tell me you didn't let this kid scam himself— 💀💀😭😭
That's his fault for giving it away at such a low price. That was a steal of a price and I had to take it. I even have him a chance to change his mind but he was determined to get some candy. I hope he has a flashback of this when he's older, and wish he didn't give it to me.

I knew teaching at a bigger school would be difficult but I didn't know I would be so affected by the kids...
I treat the 8th graders like high schoolers (I always have), like a LOT of them are already super tall and already looking the part. A few days ago when the teacher in charge of lunch detention came by, I gave the name of the noisiest kid. This kid, still being his noisy self, gets up and says 'oh its not fair' etc, but when he looks at me, he looks like he's abt to cry 🤡 and I immediately am like 'Or you can promise me not to disrupt class tomorrow and I won't send you' which he obviously accepts
Meanwhile, I'm also spending my days waiting for this one kid to smile at me again at some point or else I can't let go of my guilt of sending him to the principals office ;_; i feel like I betrayed him and he'll never smile at me again 😢 When he had come back from the office his face was red and his eyes were all watery and he was trying his best not to cry and like... I feel so gutted man to see that especially because they don't look like babies anymore.
I know they've just become teenagers and every emotion is so big and everything feels like the end of the world and I cannot bear to see these kids about to cry, especially not because of something I did. But at the same time they're the ones refusing to sit down and can't hear anything I'm trying to teach because the rest of the class is being so loud, and distracting. I can't just do nothing about that! Or else how will they pass the standardized exam at the end of the year? Sigh.

List 5 things that make you happy, then put this in the askbox for the last 10 people who reblogged something from you! get to know your mutuals and followers (ू•‧̫•ू⑅)♡
:0 Hello there!
Video games (*^▽^*) Kinda obivious answer since this is mostly a game blog but still. Be it building stuff, playing critically acclaimed oc creator with hours of story, or short little pixel games - you can always find something you like.
Fancy desserts. I have a huuuuuuge sweet tooth haha. Normal desserts are nice too ofc, but there's something special in going to a bakery and seeing some really pretty, well made desserts.
Backstage of a theatre. It's really fun to do all sorts of silly stuff backstage while waiting for your turn haha. I used to work in a local theatre years ago, and had a role in few plays, and while customer service jobs are a pain everything else was really fun.
Npc players - in dungeons especially, but seeing them anywhere is fun. It was what inspired me to make bunny-Hyth and lala-Ryne! All the Haurchefants I've seen, that one really good Urianger player in Dun Scaith, little sprout Ardbert in Stone Vigil, the absolute chaos that was Dynamis on launch: it's fun seeing a beloved npc running around, doing normal game things. And from the interactions with my npc alts I think lots of people feel the same!
Hummm, what to pick... uhhh watching animals do silly stuff? Mostly inspired by currently watching neighbor's dogs go nuts over a hose while he's trying to wash his car lol. I don't have a pet right now, but luckily I can usually watch the 3 floofballs next door playing. Or bother friends for pics of their cats.

I litteraly found my new favorite trope/ship trope by brainstorming... and the problem is, i don't know how to find any type of media(specifically stories) of that dynamic. I tried googling it, and i found nothing.
The ship dynamic is : narcissistic obnoxious Hero x depressed ass villain who's will to live is hanging by a thread (bonus points if there is a love triangle, and angst with no happy ending). Ofcourse, i want them.. well the hero to have a character arc.. and a bunch of angst
So if you manage to find a story like this, or even make a story like this let me know!

For Rowan :3 / @bxtsence
---
"... Yeah, you ain't so bad yourself, Row." Most of the time, at least. There's a long pause before Salvatore speaks again, wanting to move the subject on. "... What kinda music you listen to, again?"

I don’t believe it is an internalised ableism or something, I am just not feeling too happy or proud for being autistic for reasons that proven being solid for me.
It effects individuals differently, and in my case it is more like... my brain is wired specifically to cause discomfort and problems, it seems. Maybe it doesn’t help I was undiagnosed for almost my whole life nor I received proper accommodations, but like... I am still 25 and talked Enough with people, and I came to the conclusion that no matter how many social rules I memorise, no matter how many bad outcomes I try to predict, no matter how badly I try to act likeable or “normal” if you will - always, always, ALWAYS there is SOMETHING. Just SOME little thing that makes people uncomfortable, and yet they would never tell me. Either fearing to hurt me or thinking it is so ‘obvious’ that no way I am not aware - but I am not.
Because it is not about learning ‘enough’ unsaid social rules (they also change with time or depend on the culture), or, god forbid, blindly agreeing with EVERY time someone calls something bad in fear of causing a problem (there are still manipulators or people who are JUST wrong in accusations). It is about like... some ‘construct’, some ‘driver’ in the brain other people have that allows them to ‘detect’ social cues without explanations or instructions, and to always have it updated with society. Driver that I just... don’t have?
And I am doomed to always make people uncomfortable until I either die or just stop communicating with them completely. I can only say ‘World would’ve been a better place if ya’ll told your neurodivergent friend if they’re doing something wrong (and explain why so) because 9 times out of 10 they have no idea’ before I realise... Well, how would it occur to the majority that they’re dealing with an exception? Heck, most people I know irl don’t even know what autism is and still perceive it as a concept through the most stereotypical/ableist lense possible.
“Bonuses” like semi-regularly being yelled at for not getting an “obvious” thing fast enough, being compared to a robot/animal/etc (because they are ‘likewise oblivious when they do something awful because they follow pre-destined program/instincts’, you know the drill). So I just have this... way of how my brain works that guarantees I’ll be making people feel bad unintentionally AND guarantees I’ll be getting insults or seen as intellectually inferior over things I deadass don’t know how to change.
The thing is, I’d still rather not get rid of it. It is just how I am, there is nothing to “fix” because it isn’t “broken”, it is just different. That’s what I’d love - to adapt effectively. But nothing will ever be effective enough because in the end I need to ‘just get’ things and there is no ‘algorithm’ for reading the cues. And it throws me into despair sometimes.
