Shooting-starlight - Ace Of All Trades

A short list of things that made me cackle on a shopping list I had to turn in to my Econ teacher:

Carrots | the whole bag

Egg? Dozen

(that one made me cry, I need to sleep)

My friend misread 5? as 57 and thought I was going to buy 57 potatoes.

RICE

hell yeah ramen

Bred

Beanz

NO IM LACTOSE INTOLERENT as a header for the dairy section, followed by almond milk

Stew meet

Frozen peaches | idk they're like 2 dollars

I was yelling at Stater Bros at 10 pm for not having farfalle and getting irrationally mad at the thought of smooth penne.

I need peas... and corn

That doc was a whole mess, I can't believe I turned it in.

Underground industrial electronic goth band about to drop the clingiest clangiest beep boop track in the gamma quadrant

If you see this you are OBLIGATED to reblog w/ the song currently stuck in your head :)

WERE ANY OF YOU GOING TO TELL ME THERE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A PHYSICAL REACTION TO HOT PEOPLE??? LIKE HEARTRATE RISES AND ALL THAT. THAT’S REAL??

I'm finished with art for the semester soooo here's what I've been workin on! All assets are my own. I used a DSLR camera along with Photoshop and Clip Studio Paint

Feel free to send asks about the unaltered photos/photo locations, cause some of the original signs were pretty interesting tbh

I feel like a lot of Duolingo discourse should acknowledge that the reason that they have basically every national European language on there is not because of a “European bias” but because of refugees. A huge number of refugees in Europe use it to learn the language of whatever country they’re moving to or living in; the site even talks about it in the “fun facts” on their waiting screen. Languages like Swedish and Norwegian aren’t there primarily for Minnesotans getting in touch with their heritage, but for African and Asian refugees in Sweden and Norway, and indeed they make up the majority of people using Duolingo to learn those languages. The site does need to add more non-European languages; it’s gradually doing this, it recently added Zulu, Xhosa and Kreyòl, and its focus on indigenous languages like Navajo and Hawaiian is especially commendable, but there are still some glaring omissions of major world languages from Asia and Africa that need to be addressed — and even “they’re edited by users” doesn’t cut it with how many people worldwide speak those whom they could seek out! But the fact that a free language app is doing its best to provide the language learning services that those actual countries routinely deny desperately-poor refugees is a good thing actually. Reserve your rage for the inclusion of Esperanto, Klingon and High Valyrian over Tagalog and Farsi.
