kids remind me, often, of the things i've taught myself out of.

i have a big dog. he looks like a deer. he is taller than most young children. while we were on a trail the other day, a boy coming our direction saw us and froze. he took a step back and said: "i'm feeling nervous. your - your dog is kind of big."

goblin and i both stopped walking immediately. "he is kind of a big dog," i admitted. "he's called a greyhound. they are gentle but they are pretty tall, which is kind of scary, you're right. their legs are so long because they are made for running fast. i am sorry we scared you. would you like us to stand still while you move past us, or would you feel more safe in your body if we move and you stay still?'

"oh. i didn't know that about - greyhounds. i think i ... i want to stay still," he said. at this point, his adult had caught up to us. "i'm nervous about the dog," he told her, "so i'm - i'm gonna stay still." she didn't argue. she didn't make fun of him. she just smiled at him and at me and held his hand while goblin and i, with as wide of a berth as we could make, crept our way through.

behind us, i heard him exhale a deep breath and kind of laugh - "he was really big, huh? she said it's because greyhounds have to go fast."

"he was big," she said. "i understand why that could have made you a little scared."

"yeah. next time i - next time do you think i could maybe ask to touch him? when - i mean, next time, maybe, if i'm not nervous."

later, going to a work event, in the big city, i stood outside, trembling. my social anxiety as a caught bird in my chest. i took a deep breath and turned to my coworker. she's not even really my friend yet. i told her: "i feel nervous about this. i am not used to meeting new people, ever since covid."

she laughed, but not in a mean way. she said she was nervous too. she reached her hand out and held mine, and we both took another deep breath and walked in like that, interlinked. a few people asked us - together? - and i told the truth: i feel nervous, and she's helping. over and over i watched people relax too, admitting i feel really kind of shy lately actually, thank you for saying that.

the next time i go to an event, and i feel a little scared, i ask right away: wanna hold hands? this feels a little dangerous. i hesitate less. i don't hide it as much. i watch for other people who are also nervous and say - it's kinda hard, huh?

i know, logically, i'm not good at asking for help. but i am also not good at noticing when i need help. i've trained myself out of asking completely, but i've also trained myself to never accept my own fears or excuses. i have trained myself to tamp down every anxiety and just-push-through. i don't know what i'm protecting myself from - just that i never think to admit it to anyone.

but every person on earth occasionally needs comfort. every person on earth occasionally needs connection. many of us were taught independence is the same thing as never needing anything.

each of us should have had an adult who heard - i feel nervous and held our hand and asked us how we could be helped to feel safe. no judgement, and no chiding. many of us did not. many of us were punished for the ways that we seemed "weak".

but here is something: i am an adult now. and i get nervous a lot, actually. and if you are an adult and you are feeling a little nervous - come talk to me. we can hold hands and figure out what will help us feel safe in our bodies. and maybe, next time, if we're brave, we can pet the dog that's passing.

#spilled ink #warm up #so i have worked in childcare as a teacher for like 15 years #hence the language behind ''what helps you be safe in your body?''#like you can tell by what i say here i have EXPERIENCE with kids.#but tbh the REAL teacher moment is watching a 6/7 year old say #''this makes me nervous #can you please not come closer?''#as a teacher i was IMMEDIATELY like ... ahh whomever is raising you is doing an EXCELLENT job holy shit #verbalizing your fears? trusting an adult to listen?#ability to recognize a way you might feel safer?#like .... this kid's caregivers.... that one moment... i was like .... who are u i wanna french kiss you big on the mouth

finally doodled Teacher(canaan priest)

—but he cried out: "And miss out on the chance to die? I've been wandering these halls at three o'clock in the morning, saying at the top of my voice, 'It would be terrible to be shot,' and the Sleeper still does not come... It is dreadful to be shown a monster's pity."

#looking for his appearance and then #and i saw a reddit post of someone saying they pictured #hide the pain harold as teacher so #it made me laugh #harrow the ninth #gideon the ninth #teacher tlt #what a little freak affectionate tho #the locked tomb #tlt fanart #i dont remember his eye color sorry but i went w pale #i also cant get the ebook to check but im 80% sure the priest robes are also mother of pearl ljke the capes

listen i think that porter's temperament is a little too stone-faced (hah) but also we can't deny that like. he isn't necessarily wrong? gorgug started focusing more on his artificer classes and because of that his barbarian grades slipped. now, this is complicated because he probably would be performing better if he had his MCAT, if he had that support, but from the perspective of a teacher he's seeing a student that has been performing well at his classes but doesn't have the drive or passion for it that his classmates do. it's not unreasonable to assume that if someone like that were to divide their attention they'd lose even more of that motivation.

that's also explicitly why he signs fig's MCAT even though her grades aren't great, even though she tried to trick him, because she has the drive to put herself forward the way barbarians do. he's seen how well fig performs in class, and if another teacher is confident in her ability to keep up in the warlock classes, he thinks she can keep up with barbarian because she's already been doing that. the sad thing is that gorgug probably would be able to find his own barbarian philosophy if he had someone helping and he's smart enough to do artificer with that support, but as porter sees it he needs to get that steadier base before he starts trying to build on top of it.

basically i think that porter is a hardass but not a bad dude.

#dimension 20 #fantasy high junior year #d20 #porter cliffbreaker #gorgug thistlespring #fhjy #the hard thing is that nobody likes a teacher who says 'no'#even when it's a good idea #i imagine all the teachers are also struggling with balancing grix with what they want to do for their students

#adventure time fionna and cake #fionna and cake #Golbetty #fan art #I’m so normal about them (frothing at the mouth)#also the dynamic of teacher and student I utterly did not expect #I assumed Simon was also a student with her. it certainly complicates their dynamic #also simon being a big deal??? dr. Petrikov??? love #I just want to see them happy (even though Golbetty no longer operates like that). I want simon to get closure #to say goodbye ….#I haven’t been this wildly fanatic about a show in a loooong time #what have they done to meeeee

one of the things about being an educator is that you hear what parents want their kids to be able to do a lot. they want their kid to be an astronaut or a ballerina or a politician. they want them to get off that damn phone. be better about socializing. stop spending so much time indoors. learn to control their own temper. to just "fucking listen", which means to be obedient.

one of the things i learned in my pedagogy classes is that it's almost always easier to roleplay how you want someone to act. it's almost always easier to explain why a rule exists, rather than simply setting the rule and demanding adherence.

i want my kids to be kind. i want them to ask me what book they should read next, and i want to read that book with them so we can discuss it. i want my kid to be able to tell me hey that hurt my feelings without worrying i'll punish them. i want my kid to be proud of small things and come running up to me to tell me about them. i want them to say "nah, i get why this rule exists, but i get to hate it" and know that i don't need them to be grateful-for-the-roof-overhead while washing the dishes. i want them to teach me things. i want them to say - this isn't safe. i'm calling my mom and getting out of this. i want them to hear me apologize when i do fuck up; and i want them to want to come home.

the other day a parent was telling me she didn't understand why her kid "just got so angry." this woman had flown off the handle at me.

my dad - traditional catholic that he is - resents my sentiment of "gentle parenting". he says they'll grow up spoiled, horrible, pretentious. granola, he spits.

i am going to be kind to them. i am going to set the example, i think. and whatever they choose become in the meantime - i'm going to love them for it.

#writeblr #i was doing a lot with high school students. over and over again #other teachers kept asking me what i was doing differently - why the kids listened to me. i am not particularly foreboding #and i have a pretty firm personal policy of never reacting in anger #godhelpme.#i was always kind of taken aback #because in general the kids were pretty easy. i explained i needed to keep everything “PG-13” because this was my workplace #and it was kind of their workplace #too. besides #i love swearing #and since i couldn't swear #neither could they - so if they were going to say “fuck” or become violent #they needed to choose a really specific time #because we only get “the one”.. sure enough - nobody wanted to waste the one very specific “fuck” utterance. kids listened.#i think just because - that rule makes sense. the kids understand that i don't want to be unfair to them #that censorship is stupid #but that i'm under these rules too so like let's ride it out together #also i look young and tbh between me and u nobody wants to make the nice english teacher cry #the way these kids defended me to their friends was really genuinely so heartwarming bc the Grouchy Frat Boy #would be like MISS RAQUEL DOESN'T DESERVE THAT KIND OF AN ATTITUDE BRO DON'T TALK BACK TO HER

LISTEN, some MK11 men are kinda fine-

Nah trust me I know, I have a preference for the mk11 kuai liang over the mk1 version

#Hanzo is also great #he’s quite literally the cutest thing ever in mk11 #the way he constantly raises his eyebrows in shock while he’s in the background is so cute to me #I WILL SAY THIS THOUGH #mk1 drastically improved Johnny cage #he went from the most boring looking pe teacher to the flashy son of a bitch he is now #and I love it #I don’t like what they did with Kitana though #I mean don’t get me wrong I think the new face model is stunning #but she just doesn’t give off the same commanding and assertive vibes #did Sonya’s face model change? can anyone tell? I’m not sure if it’s a rendering thing or not #but I also prefer her mk11 look #I know liu kang has the same face model but I HEAVILY prefer how he looks in mk11 #I’ve drawn that version of liu kang like 10x more than the mk1 version

how do you have the energy/time to colour in every piece you do? especially so detailed?

way too much turkish coffee

#i need to take a break #but for real though #i don't know i just ? draw #i draw what i love and what i always loved and i know for a fact 16 years old me would be jumping and screaming like a banshee #i'm healing my inner child #this is therapy #and in these trying times with Ai and stuff #i think this is important to cherish what we love #it's when everything is hopeless that hope is important #personal #ask box #anon ask #also yeah i'm spending more time to paint #so things take extra time haha #i think it's important to stay focused #“other artists are better than me”#sure !!! but is that gonna stop you ?#passion...you need that drive to take your pen and do stuff #not saying it's easy it's the hardest thing ever #when i was in class id say shit like “i'd love to do this...” my teacher would say “remove that ”would“ in your vocabulary #“do it”#we tend to be overcritical and have the “blank page syndrome” but “throwing up” anything on a blank canvas #is the key to start drawing #you cant do shit with nothing #you can do everything with something

Greeting and saying bye to other Jews on and before Yom Kippur is so awkward

like for every other holiday you basically say "have a good holiday" or whatever the hebrew version of that is. But for Yom Kippur it's like. "have a good fast" but also the fast won't be good that's the point so like "have an ok fast" i guess but that's kind of awkward to say and "have a good Yom Kippur" doesn't work cause it's not supposed to be good that's the whole point.

wtf am I supposed to say

#one of my teachers at school is Jewish #and at the end of class I was just like #“have an ok fast this weekend”#it was so awkward #like what am I supposed to say #it's not supposed to be a good weekend #it's dedicated reflect on your sins weekend #jumblr #yom kippur #jewish
