qiqi finds a tutor

hate being the generation that remembers no ads on YouTube & the annoyance when we first saw 1 ad every 10 videos, then 1 every 5 videos, then on every video, then multiple ads within a single video, only for YouTube to market paying for Premium™️ to ‘get rid of ads!’ which weren’t even there at the start

I hate being the generation that remembers when I could easily find episodes of anime and whole ass movies on YouTube.

Hate being the generation that remembers when YouTube videos would buffer when you pause them, allowing the entire video to load and let you watch it without interruption even on slow connections.

I literally hate when people try to moralize thinking. our brains are just information generating machines, and we can try to condition ourselves to have different mindsets. but at the end of the day, we cannot have complete control on the thoughts we have. and it is stupid to expect that people repress "immoral" or "sinful" thoughts. ultimately the only thing we can do is chose how to actively respond to these thoughts; we have the choice whether or not we manifest these thoughts into the world.

as someone who has "evil" thoughts everyday... I think it is important to critically engage with your thinking. like asking yourself "hey where is this thought coming from?" or more importantly "could this thought have the potential to hurt someone if I acted on this thought, consciously or subconsciously?" but you aren't a "bad" person for thinking these thoughts. nor are your thoughts "bad."

it is also okay if “bad” thoughts linger for a while. it is okay if your “bad” thoughts aren’t just intrusive but arise consciously. you don’t have to constantly try to repress your thoughts, even if they are “bad.” critical engagement is not about stopping you from having those thoughts, it is about having a conversation with those thoughts. it is about engaging with those thoughts without shame. its about letting thoughts run their course so that they can be released. trust me repression does nothing.

Zoos prevent extinction. This is why I support zoos. This is why the world should support zoos.

THIS.

After volunteering at my local zoo for 3 years, I still had friends and family members preaching to me how zoos are animal jail. No. They’re not. A lot of animals would be extinct without them. Yea, there are bad zoos, but you hear about those more because news focuses on bad things.

This is what I do guys! This is the sort of work I’m involved in. Make sure you support good zoos and not the backyard kinds with squalid conditions though!

Zoos are also basically our best research labs for understanding animals, funding more science and more conservation through the touristy public side.
