I’ve recently created a website that aims to explain LGBTQIA+ termology bc there aren’t many in Italian that are both inclusive and easy to understand. I know that basically none of my followers speak Italian but I would really appreciate it if you reblogged this anyway so it can reach as many Italian-speakers as possible.
Do you guys have any advice or suggestion / life hack (?) for freshman in (art) college ?
a little nervous here oh god
Make yourself a clear and concise schedule, whether that’s through writing on a calendar, putting reminders in your phone, setting up a whiteboard in your living space, etc. I do a bit of everything, so that I can have reminders in case my first reminders fall through. One of THE most important things about college life, regardless of your degree plan, is time management. It won’t always be the neatest thing, and you may have curveballs that skew your schedule, but setting up a barebones time table is essential.
Also, be sure to set aside some time for yourself, at least an hour or so. Sit down, have a tea/coffee/drink of choice, listen to a podcast, take a long shower, whatever makes you relax. The longer the semester goes on, the more stress you’re going to be put under, and you’re going to need that hour or so to keep you sane during the week.
This one’s a bit more opinionated and hard to do, but for the most part, let things happen organically. Don’t overthink, don’t come home with four projects and chores and think “I NEED TO DO ALL OF THIS RIGHT NOW OH MY LORD THIS IS HARD WHAT AM I DOING AAAAA”. Just. Breathe in. And as my bestest buddy Purr says, “little bites of an elephant sandwich.”
You’ll do great! I’m sure there’s a lot of other things I could say, but I don’t want to write an essay. Enjoy! [hugs]
my advice: have fun and play–play is learning | always be watching real life to see how things move | also be watching cool animations to learn from them | it’s hard but so worth it when things turn out well, good luck!
Vulgar is a conlang (constructed/fictional language) generator created to help literally generate a language for you. No, really. No tricks, and it’s super simple to use. It’s my favourite tool right now for writing fantasy, even as someone who loves creating his own languages, it’s an amazing starting point.
Want a random conlang, straight away, with no prep or fuss? Just visit http://vulgarlang.com/index.html and click “Generate New Conlang”… and that’s it. Scroll down and through your brand new, generated, completely original conlang.
If you’re a little more advanced in terms of conlanging and want to specify IP phonemes to be used, you can add them too, but even with no knowledge of linguistics you can create a language at the click of your fingers.
This version of Vulgar is completely free, sure…. but! the guy who created it has not only made an amazing thing (which I repeat, is absolutely free at it’s most basic point), but is also planning on updating it more and more!
Under the “Buy” tab on the Vulgar website, he links to his email, where you can offer to pay for the full version of Vulgar, which is a total steal right now at a sale price of only nineteen dollars. Considering professional conlangers and linguists could charge you, like, a metric fuck ton of money for the same data you’re getting here for just nineteen, that’s a major steal.
Not to mention, buying the alpha build now gives you free access to all of it’s updated versions, which I can guarantee are just going to get better and better! I’ve already bought it and I adore it, and this is a tool the likes of which we in the conlang community have never seen in such an awesome way.
Please consider helping Vulgar out, because the creator is a damn genius
This is possibly the coolest thing I’ve ever come across
i have vulgar, and it is the best fucking thing in the world for creating conlangs. you get access to the full versions of the updates, and a 2000 word dictionary. you can even add words and choose what their conlang translation is.
i’ve created more languages than i know what to do with. the best part imo is that you can make them sound similar to actual languages, which is good if your fantasy races are based on a real life ethnic group.
