❥﹒♡﹒☕﹒𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝘆 𝘁𝗶𝗽𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗺𝗲 𝗽𝘂𝘁 𝗺𝘆 𝗮𝘀𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝗮 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝘆

organization: i know it's the most trivial advice in the world, but i swear it works. before doing anything, i take my planner and review everything i have to do, i divide the study by subject, amount of things to study and review spaces for exams. realistically, you can't expect to do it all in one day, but a good plan could almost allow you to sleep at night!

a clean workspace: i can't fucking concentrate if there's a mess aroud me, i get distracted easily, even by dust, so before i start studying i always deep-clean my desk. i know that not everyone can afford a personal and quiet place to study in their houses, so try to find yourself a small angle where you can really focus.

go to study in a library / café: i didn't believe it at first, but it's actually useful. if you have the opportunity to go to a library or a café after school ( or near your house ) do so. being surrounded by people who are studying like you really helps to focus, you'll be less inclined to get distracted and procastinate. i would feel uncomfortable using my phone in a library with other people who are doing their work while i'm sitting there scrolling on tumblr.

breaks: ik ik, not very blair waldrof, hermione granger, spencer hastings, rory gilmore of me, isn't it? but is it worth it. sometimes i end up having really bad headaches from studying and, even if i keep studying, the quality of my work decreases significantly. breaks are fundamental. i would not recommend using social networks for your beak, because they litteraly drain your attention, rather do your skincare, prepare yourself a snack ( eating is important! it's what makes you focus ), read 10 pages of your book, dance a little bit in your room, do stretching, go outside and buy some mint chewingum, something like that.

EAT!: girls, boys and theys, we know. i honestly think that almost every person that craves academic validation ends up developing a sort of eating disorder. it's not even the food, is the fact that you are too busy studying that you forget to eat, ignoring stomach cramps, or the fact that you didn't get that answer right and now you don't feel like you deserve the lunch. i understand bc i AM like this, like you. but think about it: you need to do it in order to survive ( but this is secondary to the grades, right? ) and to keep your brain active. you can't walk around with blurred vision because you haven't eaten or drunk for fourteen continuous hours. i swear that eating like a normal human being helps you to keep going.

sleep: same thing as eating, but with our terrible sleeping schedules. i know that school is toxic so we end up finishing our homeworks at 2 am everyday ( if we're lucky ) but when you have the chance, take a nap and recover.

repeat things as if you were explaining them to someone: this is litterally the fastest way ever to learn fundamental concepts when you're studying. imagine that you're talking to a friend that doesn't know anything about the subject that you're studying and try to explain the topic to them. finding simple words for a difficult topic will help you understand it thoroughly, on this basis you can then build an articulated and more academic speech. repeat things out loud, doesn't matter if you look crazy, you already are <3

check and organize your notes the same day: i never have time to take proper notes in class, so i review them as soon as possible, with the lesson still fresh in mind. it really helps me understand the subject and makes the further study much easier.

watch youtube videos: youtube is my favourite class. sometimes teachers are dumber than students and you, who don't have a degree in that subject and are tackling a topic for the first time, don't understand a damn thing. ofc not!! sometimes professors are terrible at explaining stuff, but fazal from pakistan isn't. i passed my physics class with a 10/10 thanks to an indian guy on youtube. documentaries and yt videos are a simple and nice way to understand better topics and do insights for extra credits.

delete social media: i'm gonna do another post specifically for this.

"STUDY!" wallpaper: last but not least, the dumbest yet the smartest advice, set as lockscreen a white / black / whatever background with a big fat "STUDY!" written on it. everytime you're about to pick up your phone and procastinate the wallpaper will scold you.

hope this was useful or at least fun to read byee

There's a lot of lines in Amongst Our Weapons that make me want to wave my arms around and yell incoherently about Peter and Nightingale and how far they've come and how much they mean to each other, but right now the one I want to yell about the most is this one from right at the end:

Image text: 'The wider the base, the greater the stability of the building,' said Nightingale. 'You taught me that.'

Because, like. Peter wanted to be an architect. The thing he always wanted to do was to build things. And look what he's built! He hasn't just rebuilt the Folly as it was, he's built something modern and completely new out of its constituent parts and he's done it by caring about people and being interested in how things work and by what Beverly jokingly calls 'compulsive networking'.

And everything he's done for the Folly, he's done for Nightingale on a personal level too.

Nightingale was So isolated when Peter first met him. His police colleagues didn't want much to do with him, his social circle seemed to consist of Molly and Dr Walid and not much more, he was completely out of touch with the modern world. And to his credit, he was the one who decided to take on an apprentice, but that was pretty much all he was planning to do. Train up a replacement for himself in case he got killed, pass on the Forms and Wisdoms properly, keep the status quo going.

But he chose Peter, and suddenly he's got an apprentice who wants to study the science behind magic and modernise the Folly's record keeping and work out better ways to liaise with other police and fundamentally Make Changes. Nightingale ends up with all these connections through Peter, to Beverley and the other Thames girls, to Lesley, to Abigail, eventually to the rest of Peter's family, to other police like Guleed and Stephanopoulos and unfortunately for him Seawoll... He has people he can rely on, and who choose to rely on him, and not just for magic -I especially love how Peter's mum eventually starts using him to babysit Peter's dad, and the fact that he helps Abigail's family with her brother. He's not alone anymore, and he goes from just living to genuinely thriving.

And it's all down to Peter, and what the two of them have built together. In fact, they've built something so significant that in a few years Nightingale isn't going to be necessary anymore. He's been Britain's Last Official Wizard for seventy years, all the weight of that tradition resting on his shoulders alone, and in a handful of years Peter has helped him to build something that'll be able to take the weight instead if he wants it to. There are people who can help do everything he's been doing alone and more, so finally he can think about what he actually wants for himself. (And don't even get me started on his arc re: teaching and discovering that it's what he wants to do for the rest of his life, I Will start yelling even more.)

And it's Peter who's taught him to let other people take the weight. That you can build something stable and lasting if you're willing to share the load. The wider the base, the greater the stability of the building.

Not bad for a wannabe architect who can't draw, huh?

#rivers of london #peter grant #thomas nightingale #amongst our weapons #once again I am deeply emotionally compromised by that book and those two #and like. the fact that peter's architecture thing comes off as just a fun character quirk #but then you think about it and it's kind of Fundamental to the themes of the whole series #which is about Building #building connections building systems building Better Things #and our protagonist is a guy who couldn't be an architect #and his mentor is a guy who slowly realises just how much he wants to be a teacher #Waving My Arms Around And Yelling #wizard nonsense tag

A headache pulses between his temples as he makes his way back to his room. Which is less of a “room” and more of a cell carved out of a chunk of temple that the warped reality of the place had decided could be semi-permanent. Sometimes.

Surprise! Bet you weren't expecting two posts in the same week, let alone something from an earlier chapter :b As always, go read A Dark Among the Lights by LuckyLectio on AO3!

The room's design was influenced by Ganon's Tower in alttp, featuring a door mimic from the Minish Cap and (a bit obviously) some malice from botw. It was fun adding little details while keeping with the empty vibe I got from the description in the fic. Get this man a bed, not even necessarily to sleep in but just to have somewhere comfy to rest.

#my art #dark link #adatl #file name: Home is Where the Weapons Are #bonus points to people that know what exactly Dark is walking towards #hint--it's highlighted :3 #the perspective was a bit tricky...i may or may not have leveraged the fact that the dark palace's architecture is naturally a bit wonky #dark temple...whatever XD

i'm soooooo curious about kaveh's kit (and just general gameplay) because tbh i just cannot see him fighting. like i'm sure he's strong but i Cannot visualise him holding a weapon and doing things with it

#leaks technically but him being a greatsword user is so 😭 like cmon that's my least favourite weapon type #i've been trying so hard to visualise him with diluc or beidou's attack patterns but it just does not make sense he should be a bow user.#i hope he's a bow user tighnari and collei be damned #<- jk i love them but #i need his entire kit to be leaked so bad #and even though im like 99% sure that he's a four star #there's this part of me hoping that oh. he's gonna be a 5 star with a fancy burst animation like he deserves #he is living in my head rent free i need him to have the gorgeousest beautifulest wonderfulest character demo + music #i also wonder what his constellation will be. probably not a lion (?) bc it has more to do with #kshahrewar #and not him as a person afaik?#maybe something related to architecture or art then?#aaaaaaaaaaaaaa #i need him c6 level 90 10/10/10 in my party right Now #kaveh #genshin impact #zzz

Que les hommes, les femmes, et les enfants de la Terre se rassemblent afin d'admirer le pouvoir d'Atome.

Que ceux qui vivent ici sur la Terre qui l'on élue suivent les paroles du prophète d'Atome.

Venez boire les eaux de la Lueur, car cette arme de guerre symbolise notre salut.

Elle est le symbole même de la gloire d'Atome.

Qu'elle nous rappelle que la division qui a eu lieu dans le passé et nous annonce le resplendissement de la division à venir.

Offrez vos corps à Atome, mes amis, libérez vous grâce à Son pouvoir, ressentez Sa Lueur et soyez divisés.

Il n'y aura ni larmes ni chagrins ni souffrances, car la division nous libère des douleurs et des épreuves de ce monde.

Oui, vos souffrances disparaîtront, elles seront lavées dans la Lueur d'Atome, brûlées dans le feu de Son éclat.

Le corps putride de chacun de nous donnera naissance à un milliards d'étoiles.

Chacun de nous enfantera mille milliards de civilisations.

Chacun de nous connaîtra la paix et la fin de ses souffrances et la gloire d'Atome.

Je vous y invite, mes frères.

Venez, buvez avec moi et priez.

Glorieux Atome ! Je t'offre mes os fragiles, je te fais cadeaux de ce frêle corps.

Je t'en implore, fais de moi ton instrument, guide moi vers ton éclat, divise chaque particule, et donne la paix à ce corps pourri.

Accorde à ce corps éphémère une vie nouvelle dans les forges de ta Lueur.

I'm a lil confused by your diagram of murderbot's arm gun in that recent ref with three. what's the bit on the bottom?

i'm not too sure exactly what sketch you're referring to, but this sounds like a perfect opportunity to infodump about poorly designed machinery and hopefully that will answer your question lol

hence! okay so basically i went full "disregard what's actually in the books because vibes" when i designed it and mb's energy weapons system is comprised of two separate cannons, the wrist cannon and the forearm cannon. why? because it needs at least a little bit of space for musculature in its arms if it wants to be able to use it's hands, and so splitting the weapon up allows for better space management.

however, we also know that the bond company produces shoddily-made units, right? and they'd likely put more importance in cramming as much firepower into their units than like, keeping it safe ("whatever, that's what it has the cubicle for right?") which is why mb could reasonably shoot its own hands off if it's not being careful. no one ever thinks to fix this, even when secunit hand materials become their most-ordered item by far.

anyways all this is to say, the bit on the bottom is either it's hand (hinge-operated wrist that moves the hand out of the way (like more than normal wrist movement would allow for) in order to use the wrist cannon), or the wrist cannon itself (telescopic, literally built into the ulna and radius)

as an extra; this is contrasted with three's singular cannon design, which functions both as a part of the forearm as well as a gun, because whoever designed three's model of secunit actually used their brains and had better resources, likely. which is why it doesn't risk shooting its hands off. however, the weapon housing does coincide with like, where the ulnar nerve (funny bone) would be in a human, and because its weapon system doubles as musculature... well that's why that ikea-cabinet thing comes from lmao

and yeah lol i really hope this answered your question and thanks for the ask lol

however. I forgot a crucial element to drawing fake medieval art. buildings.

#i hate the christianity-ification of the epic cycle knights. get knock off la croix jesus out of here.#theoretically i'd look up weapons but like maybe later #i will look up architecture reconstructions tho

shoutout to all the legendary weapons in elden ring besides 1 “scepter” (greathammer) EDIT: also one spear, i realized that mid-tags. being sword-format

#like i’d never actually call the ruins greatsword a ‘sword’ in any real sense. its smashing people with a bit piece of space architecture #but LIKE #NO SPEAR??????#for the amount the game draws on norse and celtic mythology the lack of any fucking spears in its arbitrary ‘legendary’ classification is #so fucking stupid lmao #LIKE AT LEAST THE SWORDS IT GIVES HAVE GOOD BUILD COVERAGE #BUT. COME *ON*#fuck ok correction: the bold of gransax is a spear. thought it was a great thrusting sword #big thrusting sword??#one of those #*bolt #its… still like…. my brain can’t process that design as a spear shgjhhjb maybe if i actually found it in-game #but this still leaves whips fist weapons hammers flails bows crossbows axes greataxes halberds shields etc #(like. theres even weapons in-game that’d easily qualify lore-wise. fjgjhjgjb.)
