tips for public speaking

take a deep breath

it’ll be over before you know it 

pretend like you’re obama (it’ll help you talk slower)

stand up straight

in a class setting, people don’t typically pay attention anyways so it’s not like your classmates are watching your every move. they don’t care.

don’t lock your knees

bring up a note card with important topics or quotes

make eye contact if you can

or look at people’s hair. it’ll make it seem like you’re making eye contact, but it’ll be less awkward

don’t memorize your entire speech. instead, memorize a couple bullet points of topics you need to hit

project your voice as if you’re speaking to someone sitting in the back of the room

talk with your hands to help you feel more warm and welcoming

don’t put your hands in your pockets

walk around a bit, but let it come organically. don’t force it.

don’t bounce one leg the whole time, it’s distracting

spit out your gum

smile

don’t eat a big meal prior

if you have to present for a certain number of minutes, have a friend sit in the back of the room and hold up finger signs for how many minutes you’ve been up there

don’t wear loud jewelry

practice your presentation/speech to a friend or family member who is unfamiliar with the material. if they don’t understand your presentation or don’t follow, you need to be more detailed

stick to the built-in themes on power point. yes, colors are pretty, but some color combos can be hard to read, and you won’t know it until it’s up on a big screen/projector.

put pictures in your power point. they’re more entertaining to look at than a paragraph of text.

speak with formal language. stay away from curse words and slang.

remember that everyone in your class is going through the same stress.

if you absolutely cannot handle the idea of public speaking, talk to your teacher and see if it’s okay for you to do your presentation after class.

it’ll be okay.

you got this.

shocking new discovery: you are very cute. scientists everywhere are blushing

*hands you this*

unhinged YouTube channels to quench all your thirst for chaotic sciences stuff

TheBackyardScientist- pretty straight forward, a lot of ridiculous what if videos as in “what if we filled a pool with molten lava or dry-ice, electrifying sand etc. pretty chaotic, they destroy A LOT of fish-tanks in their processes

Styropyro- You like fire? you like LASERS? You like literal death-rays build from stuff you can buy from e-bay? Also sometimes there is completely unhinged science recipes (like making rocketfuel from sugar and stump remover) taking from late 19th-early 20th century DIY science books that make the anarchist cookbook look kind of lame

Michael Reeves- Fun weird robotics and coding, robots build from household items and whatever you can salvage anywhere, not as informative as the others mentioned but very fun and unhinged, also coding tutorials

JLservideos- cool gadgets and build inspired by pop-culture like Superhero movies, fairly in-depth explanations on the building process, still easily digestible, wall climbing shoes, taser gloves and human flying drones are just a few of the very cool projects

The Thought Emporium- The closets thing to a RL mad scientist YouTube has to offer, straight up bioengineering at some points, very bio focused in general, manipulating viruses, growing synthetic flesh and silk, and using human neurons to build a computer

Sexy Cyborg- Machine coding and 3d printing, hiding cool gadgets in everyday objects, building automated bartenders etc. self build anti-surveillance tech

So if you lived in a society where you had to secure your communication in order to be yourself around others, here are the apps that could help you do that.

That’s Louis Rossman, a repair technician and YouTuber, who went viral recently for railing against Apple. Apple purposely charges a lot for repairs and you either have to pay up or buy a new device. That’s because Apple withholds necessary tools and information from outside repair shops. And to think, we were just so close to change.

Ok motherfuckers listen up

I was listening to the mother knows best reprise from Tangled because it’s a fucking bop, you know?

Anyway, If you followed up on one of my stories, the card one, (like the only one until I get this new one out tomorrow) they you’ll know some of my characters from the actual book I am writing, and so I was inserting them in.

Don’t leave yet I’m almost to the point.

So I was thinking about that scene where basically after Flynn and Repo have their little song together, Flynn gets blackmailed and forced to go back to prison (to save repo) and those same guys attempt to “kidnap” Repo, then of course Mother Gothel comes in and “saves the day” and manipulates Repo like, ‘this is why you shouldn’t have gone outside and listened to me’.

Yeah, Gothel is a piece of shit. Anyway, skipping past Flynn breaking out, Repo finding out she’s the lost princess, her standing up to Gothel.

Now here’s where the ✨whump✨ part comes in.

-So caretaker (Flynn in this situation) goes back to find whumpee (Repo) and they make it in, only to find whumpee chained and gagged. They go in to free them, and whumpee screams from behind the gag.

This is of course, where Whumper (Gothel) comes and stabs caretaker in the back, leaving whumpee there crying.

(So assuming your whumpee doesn’t have magical healing powers) Whumper is trying to force whumpee into a car, basement, basically take them somewhere else, and whumpee offers to willingly submit to the Whumper, never cause another problem if they get Caretaker medical help.

And of course, the last scene with them two together before this part. (Bare with me cause I haven’t seen the movie since 2016)

-Whumper blackmails Caretaker with threats to hurt Whumpee, so Caretaker leaves them (like when Flynn turned himself in to help repo)

Then Whumper goes to whumpee and is like, “see? They abandoned you, just like I said they would.” And of course Whumpee is betrayed and hurt so they go with Whumper, knowing that Whumper will “love them”.

-Or of course, you could do the reactions of the king and queen when they watch their baby get taken.

-When Flynn finds out what Gothel did to Repo

-Repo’s thought process when finding out she was kidnapped and realizing who she was

- the ✨reunion✨cause fuck I’m soft

I’m just saying that Tangled has so much whump in it that you could get a hell of a lot of inspiration from it.
