These Two

parentheses in pemdas/bodmas means "to complete all the operations WITHIN a parenthesis." if it's just a 4 inside there than there's nothing to do and 2(4) is the exact same as multiplication

my sister needs help.

URGENT

hey everyone. i’m posting this on behalf of my sister, shannon. she’s in a tight spot and could really use some help.

the situation is explained in more detail on her gofundme, but here’s the short version: in late spring this year, one day after shannon’s graduation, she was s-xua-ly assaulted on campus by a former partner, and it threw a wrecking ball into her life. (pardon the censorship, i don’t want tumblr to bury this post for being “inappropriate.”)

this was someone who had been harassing, emotionally abusing and making unwanted advances on her for months, even after she had broken up with him. she has been struggling with ptsd as a result, and has come to feel too unsafe to stay in the area. this means she has lost her campus job, will no longer have a place in town to live, and doesn’t have the income she needed to pay the university, her rent, her student loans, or her bills.

the good news is that one of our aunts out in california has offered her a place to stay. it’s not a perfectly ideal arrangement, but it will get her away from her abuser and keep a roof over her head. however, she still needs as much help as she can get. she has no job prospects lined up to cover her expenses, has very little savings, and is still working to recover from the trauma she experienced.

any assistance is appreciated, no matter how small, whether that comes as a donation or a signal boost!

thank you. ❤️

It is not the prettiest but here is a little chart I made of skin tones.

The idea is to eye-drop anywhere on the chart to get a unique skin tone instead of getting stuck in the loop of “white, tan, dark”.

2012 vs 2015

dA

favorite spongebob quotes from every episode before the movie: 2/?

Nope. Maaaaybe "Onion Trade," but overall, no. :)

I’m not gonna be able to watch every episode in a day, are there any filler episodes that I can skip

sorry, but i genuinely fail to see how the vast majority of these (and a lot of the ones i see in the replies and reblogs) are bad or even remotely weird. I wouldn't bat an eye at a brooklyn, hayden, reese, zoë, jaxon, london or thor and i don't exactly relate to this unless it's like, extremely common names or voweless incomprehensible names or blantatly inappropriate one. i dunno

i taught swim lessons and preschool, do y’all wanna hear the most ridiculous white kid names i’ve ever seen?

Indonesia Needs Us

2018 has not been geologically kind to Indonesia. 

An underwater landslide caused by the eruption of Anak Krakatau spawned a tsunami that as of today (Dec. 24) has killed 373 people. This already on top of other earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, and the Sulawesi Tsunami. Millions have been displaced, thousands dead, and many more still missing. As Anak Krakatau is an actively erupting volcano, it could still generate more waves, hampering rescue efforts and displacing more people.

Many of those affected were owners of tourist driven industries, and will now be unable to earn money this holiday season as their property and businesses have been destroyed. People have their only source of income, their beloved family, and friends.. 

Please consider donating to these charities to directly help the people of Indonesia. Every cent counts. You will help save lives.
