Mmm you ever set out to draw something and realize a couple dozen engine searches later that you might be in over your head
#this is what i get for making an overdesigned anime punk >_>#I was like 'I'm gonna do a different head pose this time! Practice!' and now I'm realizing I can't even draw kaz in a t-pose lmao#'How to draw X' over and over with different specifiers because tattoos and scars aren't as easy to convey as I'd thought#Then researching what the hell the guy should look like and trying to give him that undead gauntness and all#Meanwhile he's got crazy amine hair and vaguely reminds me of yugi for some reason which wasn't supposed to happen#What is happeninggggg

Review of each IB class as an international baccalaureate diploma haver (IB is just AP but more european)
HL English - One of the less stressful classes. I like reading and writing, I remember finishing assignments earlier than expected. I got a 5
Oral exam - Did this in junior year, I did it on V for Vendetta (the movie) and Small Gods by Terry Pratchett because I was smoking fucking crack apparently
Paper - I barely remember this one, I think I did it on Ajax. Easy
Exams - Easy shit. I even had time to draw on the back
HL History - Having a good teacher helped. Not caring about WW1 did not help. I got a 5
Paper - Actual garbage. Worst thing I've ever written. Wrote it in junior year then had to edit it a year later and it was so bad
Exams - More stressful than the english ones, my hand fucking hurt, still had time to draw on the back because I'm the goat
SL Biology - Yayy :3 aminals and cell :3 slime :3 (I got a 5)
Paper - did it on slime mold hehe. Make sure you have your plan together early on in this assignment in case you need to order materials
Exams - If you make up enough things about science you might accidentally stumble into the right answer!
SL Math - I'm one of those sick fucks who like math. If you're a normal person then I'd consider getting a tutor to lessen the stress. I got a 5
Paper - finished this in like 2 days easy
Exam - Literally fuck my entire life
HL Theatre - If you're willing to embarrass yourself, lie, cheat, and steal, then this is an easy HL class. I got a 5
Papers - there's no exam for this class, only papers and recorded performances. The directors notebook was fun (didn't require any acting, I could draw pretty pictures). The research project was ok, make sure that your subject has more than one source describing it (I did mine on Kabuki theater so pretty easy). The group project... I don't want to think about that. The solo project was almost fun I got to writhe on the floor like a worm.
SL Spanish - literal dante's inferno type journey. I got a 4
Oral exam - on GOD don't be autistic
Exams - If I had a gun I'd kill myself
Extended Essay - don't forget to have fun and be yourself :) I got a D. If I could pass with that dogshit essay then SO CAN YOU!!
CAS - If you're bad at lying on IB assignments at this point I don't know how to help you. I actually don't know if they grade this? I'm not checking
CAS project - Make sure to do this completely last minute ok? :3
CAS presentation? - The thing you record all your CAS stuff on. People say that the Service part was the most difficult but that was easy for me since my town has a lot of volunteer opportunities, yours does too if you look hard enough. I had trouble on the Active because I do not go outside.
Ok I think that's everything but just make sure that you get deeply invested into a new video game two weeks before the exam this step is crucial also make sure you get into a college that only accepts 45 of your IB credits even though you got 55 LITERALLY KILL YOURSELF WESTERN WASHINGTON SUCK MY BALLS

Iranian Muslim SAW JESUS! Whole family converts to Christianity.
youtube
Amin grew up in Iran as a devout Muslim in a Muslim family. He used to pray 5x a day and study the Arabic language.
One day whilst praying, to Allah, Amin became frustrated, asking: “why do I have to pray in Arabic, you know I don’t speak Arabic”.
Amin had become frustrated of the monotony and emptiness of the Islamic religion and asked God, if He is real and alive, to show him.
That morning, at 5am, Amin had a dream where he saw Jesus Christ. What is even more miraculous is that Amins mother and sister also met Christ in a dream that morning around the same time.
This set the family on a dangerous journey, to leave Islam and learn about Jesus, in a country which persecutes Christians, as well as those who dare to leave the Islamic religion.
Through miracles, prayer, the power of the only true God, and the support of a christian charity, Amin somehow made it out of Iran and to Australia where he is now a pastor of a church.
Amin also learned that 40 others in his neighbourhood, had encountered Christ and left Islam for Christianity.
His story is a victorious one worth sharing. It serves as a powerful reminder that our God is alive and active, He sees us, hears us, and saves WHOSOEVER calls upon Him in spirit and truth.
No person is out of God’s reach.
Not even Muslims in countries where the gospel is scarce.
We are seeing every day, how the Lord Jesus Christ is reaching into the darkest places on Earth and drawing Muslims into His glorious light.

let's try documenting a big Satisfactory project!
so i have this facility called SPINE. it's a multi-function structure with a stupid (but cool) name. pics under the cut because they're big:
it's bad and it could stand to be renovated.
it was one of the first large facilities i built. it was conceived as a centrally located factory that would gather in resources from the surrounding area, use them to manufacture various fundamental parts like iron plates and screws and whatnot, and then funnel them outward to specialized factories. where possible, additional functions could be built within what felt at the time like a roomy interior, and the structure could be extended upward to make more factory space within.
in addition, it was built on legs, making space underneath for three purposes:
allowing tractors and other vehicles to pass through (at the time, i had an automated tractor running stuff back and forth between a few buildings, and anticipated having a fleet of little wheely friends going to and fro)
making space for ceiling-mounted conveyor belts that would not just move materials through the building but provide the means to deliver them up into the building's interior for processing
room for aminals to wander through :)
so, seeing as this was going to be the center of a general stream of many different products needed throughout my growing factory-city, it seemed analogous to a a spinal column. hence, SPINE, or rather, S.P.I.N.E. what do the letters stand for? i figured i'd think of an appropriate combination of words eventually, but i never did. the name nevertheless stuck
SPINE has been doing what i have asked of it for a while now. the inside chambers mostly look like this
anyway, as mentioned, this was made early on, and while i think the concept is sound, the implementation has ultimately proven insufficient. the space underneath ended up being too small for the variety of materials i require to move through, as well as all the necessary branches needed to move things back and forth between the transport space on the bottom and the factory spaces inside. here's what the underside looks like:
seriously it fuckin sucks down here bro
i can't just keep extending the conveyor lines further down from the ceiling; making enough space to move all these materials and move them up into the factory requires all sorts of stupid twisty turny conveyor belt tricks. the backside, where everything funnels in, is absolutely embarrassing. wizard-of-oz-man-behind-the-curtain bullshit. glasgow willy wonka experience-ass levels of fulfillment. slapdash mickey mouse duct tape effort. real "I didn't do my homework and now i gotta make up this presentation live in front of the class and they can see me sweating" energy embodied.
the horrid tangle running through SPINE is complicated by its output, set up so that it delivers things to my central storage barn. things need to leave the facility in a very specific way, like so:
this part, at least, works fine. this massive vein of conveyor belts is a bit ugly but it works very well. i put a lot of time into designing my central storage barn (there were spreadsheets involved) and it paid off. look at this shit, look at how neatly everything gets sorted into easily accessed bins
i love it. the power fantasy of living in an organized environment, realized here in digital form!
unfortunately the clean functionality of this building just draws into stark relief how bad SPINE is. even if I spruced up its exterior, fully finishing the walls and adding fripperies such as signage and doors and lights, its core functionality is insufficient for my needs. SPINE was conceptualized and built far in advance of my understanding of what i would actually need it to do and i can't stand it any longer! no more!
so, i'm planning to tear it all down and replace it with a bigger, better-organized SPINE. in addition to making it look nicer, it could actually be expandable without adding another strand into its already tangled guts. it would give me an opportunity to incorporate the functions of numerous smaller satellite facilities, cleaning up the surrounding landscape a bit and making room for other factories i know i will have to build in time. it would, potentially, allow me to incorporate a train station or two, so products could be picked up or delivered as needed... not something i need at this time, but even if i never do, having the capability of entertaining visiting trains is a worthy goal in itself.
anyway i haven't started on that yet. SPINE 2.0 is still in the planning stages, and i'm leaving on a trip in a day or so so i'm not gonna be able to start on this project in earnest for at least a week.
i might keep documenting the project here for funsies. i love Satisfactory; it's a perfect vehicle for one of my favorite things to do in a game: turning nothing into places. if you're in a video game and you see a bunch of hills and trees and rivers and piles of iron ore and other natural features, it doesn't really mean much on its own, but spend enough time there and you grow accustomed to it. you put together a mental map, figure out whatever routes you're going to be taking through it, learn how to navigate it quickly and efficiently, and soon that random bit of wilderness is a place. the rocks you have to navigate around and the rivers you have to jump over become familiar sights. and if it's a building kinda game, and you're populating this unsullied wilderness with the mortal profanity of civilization, that place is even more place-y than before. i very much like the places i have built in Satisfactory, so regardless of how this is received, it's fun to talk about it, get some of my internal thoughts on this project down in a format that can last. at least until tumblr shutters its doors and gets sold to some venture capitalist vultures in 2026
