Curiosity kills the cat but Satisfaction brought it back

The African American Smithsonian.

I think if staff couldn’t kick them out, these people should still be forced to write a 3 page paper (each) focused on one exhibit they had to interact with, if they wanted to continue staying

#2: "hi [professor], hope you're doing well! unfortunately, I'm [sick/stuck at work/dead] and won't be able to submit [assignment] by [due date]. could I please have an extension? if not, is there anything else I could do to make up this credit? thanks so much, [op]"

The FIRST SENTENCE is the thing you want the recipient to do. Do not make them guess.

I want to let you know about ... (This email is to inform someone of something not to ask them to do anything)

Could you please do ... (This is a request. You want them to do something).

I'm looking into x and wondering if you can help me (this is also a request but for information instead of an action).

People do not want to read an email and even if they do read it, most people are skimming and not interested. Tell them what you want first, then provide context or other information (when you need a thing is often key). If the email is informational, you can even add "you don't need to do anything, this is just to keep you informed!" People will appreciate not having to figure out what you want from them.

If you can't articulate what you want the recipient to do with the message, you are not ready to email them. I read too many emails where I have no idea what the person wants from me.

Today is my friend from Gaza, Tala’s, birthday. I have known her in her time of need since the beginning of this genocide. Another year has passed and her and her children are still suffering. On this day of all days is her birthday. Today marks for Americans the sense of the idea of freedom, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, but truly do any of us feel it? Feel fulfilled in this land of the free? Where the worst of it is soon to come to those who refuse to acknowledge the suffering of those outside of us. With our heads down trying to keep rituals of our country alive of work, eat, sleep, and being entertained while the other side of the world is fighting everyday for basic necessities.

Please, if you can as always, donate to my friend so her and her children can eat and afford sheltering during this bombardment.

His pregnant wife still has bullets lodged in her body and needs surgeries to have them removed. Please help them if you can.

regarding my last posts, i'm in a better position rent wise. my mom has a job, and i'm still looking for one. the landlord is being very patient with us. however, the heatwave has hit and we need to keep the power on. my mom is chronically ill and can't handle overheating. our internet bill is also due, which i need so i can get employed and get us out of this rut quicker.

We’re only 384 AUD away from reaching 50% of the goal.

Just 16 people donating $25 could change everything for us.

My mother still needs urgent care, and we truly can’t do this alone anymore.

As of this morning I was reluctantly looking for jobs because I love my job and don't want to leave it, but see: $10k raise problem solver.

As of noon today this was no longer an issue, because my boss called me with the news that I was getting a $10K merit raise.

I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. This is roughly $200 extra per paycheck. Enough to pay off debt faster, rebuild my savings, and spend a weekend a month in Milwaukee getting obscenely laid. The sex I'm going to have on $200 extra per paycheck. You can't even.

I hit the limit of links allowed per Tumblr post, so I've decided to split them into several posts. This one will list Paramaker mods.

Per usual, I am focusing on Victorian mods but will add any mod I find for any other historical era such as medieval or the 1900s, and mods that work across multiple eras.

i'm in Ireland and the search for that bastards name is still blocked and hidden... the legnths the british go to defend and protect their instruments of colonialism and violence is beyond belief. no justice for the victims and yet every measure taken to protect David James Cleary and his fellow murderers.
