DEAR EDUCATIONALLY NEGLECTED HOMESCHOOLERS

DEAR EDUCATIONALLY NEGLECTED HOMESCHOOLERS

I’ve gathered some resources and tips and tricks on self-educating after educational neglect. This is only what I did and what I know helped me. I’m about to graduate college with honors after having no education past the age of 9. I wouldn’t be here without the following. Everything is free, and at/well above the standard for education in the US.

The holy grail: Khan Academy. Nearly every course you could take is available here, in order and by grade level. Their open-source free courses rival some of the college classes I’ve taken. This is your most solid resource.

For inattentive types: Crash Course offers a variety of courses that are snappy, entertaining, and extremely rewarding. They work for my ADHD brain. They also have college prep advice, which is essential if you’re looking to go to higher education with no classroom experience.

To catch up on your reading: There are certain books that you may have read had you gone to school that you’ve missed out on. This list is the most well-rounded and can fill you in on both children’s books and classic novels that are essential or at least extremely helpful to be familiar with. You can find a majority of these easily at a local library (and some for free in PDF form online low key). There are a few higher level classics in here that I’d highly recommend. If it doesn’t work for you, I’d always recommend asking your local librarian.

*BE AWARE* The book list I recommend suggests you read Harry Potter books, and given their transphobic author you may or may not want to read them. If you choose to, I’d highly recommend buying the books secondhand or borrowing from a library to avoid financially supporting a living author with dangerous and damaging views.

TEST, TEST, TEST: Again, Khan Academy is your go-to for this. I don’t personally like standardized testing, but going through SAT and ACT courses was the best way I found to really reveal my gaps so that I could supplement.

Finally: As much as you can, enjoy the process. Education can be thrilling and teach you so much about yourself, and help shape your view of the world. It can get frustrating, but I’d like to encourage you that everyone can learn. No pace is the perfect pace, and your learning style is the right learning style for you. In teaching yourself, be patient, be kind, and indulge in the subjects you really enjoy without neglecting others. You are your teacher. Give yourself what others chose not to.

Ever After High Pokemon Teams - Hunter Huntsman

Part 4 is here!! Time for the huntsman who could never harm a fly -

Hunter Huntsman

Growing up, Hunter’s father really wanted him to follow in his footsteps and become a Pokemon Trainer like he did. However, Hunter’s heart lay on a different path: Pokemon Breeding! Hunter is a natural caretaker and dotes on injured and Baby Pokemon.

Trainer Class: Pokemon Breeder

Hunter's team is mainly comprised of Pokemon he has either taken in after finding them hurt or Pokemon he raised from Eggs.

Cheeky the Greedent

Moves:

Super Fang

Bullet Seed

Thief

Dig

Cheeky was Hunter’s first Pokemon, found in the woods and injured. Hunter secretly took him home and nursed him back to health. He tried to release him back into the wild, but he just kept coming back over and over again until Hunter finally agreed to catch him. Cheeky often caused trouble for Hunter due to his habit of hoarding berries. However, after Hunter became a Breeder and started raising Baby Pokemon, Cheeky quickly became a fun-big brother like figure to the Baby Pokemon. He would often sneak them their favorite berries after dinner time and would play with them after dark - much to Hunter’s frustration. 

Cheeky is, obviously, in reference to Pesky, Hunter’s pet squirrel. Skwovet and Greedent were the obvious choice to represent Pesky. I also think Greedent’s berry filled tail would be very helpful when feeding Pokemon.

Indy the Indeedee

Moves:

Psychic

Draining Kiss

Swift

Protect

Indy was the second Pokemon Hunter caught. He met her when he was sneaking out of his house to release Pokemon that were caught in his father’s traps. Indy helped him and even helped him get Cheeky under control. Hunter caught her after a quick battle. Indy greatly helps Hunter with watching any Pokemon he is looking after, both Baby and adult Pokemon. Indy has a very calming aura about her and has quelled many arguments. Indy is also close with another Indeedee who's trainer is also fond of Hunter…

When I read that Female Indeedee are great babysitters, I knew this had to be on Hunter’s team as he would be taking care of a lot of Baby Pokemon. I also chose this Pokemon to parallel Ashlynn's Indeedee, Gladiolus, as well as helping the two forge a connection.

Grampy the Drampa

Moves:

Hyper Voice

Dragon Pulse

Extrasensory

Flamethrower

Hunter met Grampy when he was trying to find his younger sister Fern who had wandered into the forest. Grampy found Fern first and took care of her until Hunter found her. Grampy ended up liking Hunter and he would come around Hunter’s house just to help out with Fern and Baby Pokemon and Hunter ended up catching Grampy because he was around so much anyway! During his journey, Grampy would help by watching over young Baby Pokemon and Eggs. He is a gentle, old soul who loves making youngsters laugh.

Drampa is a perfect Pokemon for Hunter! Dragon types are typically tough, strong Pokemon that are feared by all. And while Drampa is certainly a strong Pokemon, it is also known for its caring nature and love of small children. This description reminded so much of Hunter and I knew Drampa had to be on Hunter’s team!

Marley the Magmar

Moves:

Lava Plume

Scorching Sands

Scary Face

Fire Spin

Marley is the first Pokemon Hunter hatched from an Egg. Right from the beginning, Marley was attached to Hunter’s leg and followed him around like he was his parent! Marley has a love for both small Pokemon and battling and is always ready to protect his weaker buddies. He alway helps with Egg hatching as his Flame Body ability is perfect for helping Eggs hatch! He also helps introduce Baby Pokemon to berries by warming them up to make them softer and easier to eat.

I knew I wanted Hunter to have a Pokemon that had an ability to help hatch Eggs (so Flame Body, Magma Armor or Steam Engine). After looking through the options, I decided that Magmar fit Hunter’s team the best. Not only did Magmar have the Flame Body ability, but it also evolved from Magby, a Baby Pokemon, which felt very on brand of a Breeder. I also chose not to have Magmar evolve, because while Hunter would train his pokemon, he does not battle for profession or sport, so he would not be hard pressed to evolve any of his Pokemon - especially if there was a risk he would not get it back, like in a trade.

Ripley the Lucario

Moves:

Aura Sphere

Flash Cannon

Dragon Pulse

Shadow Ball

Ripley was an active Pokemon, even when he was newly hatched! He looks up to Hunter and wants to make him proud. Thanks to how close he is to Hunter, he evolved into a Lucario rather quickly and he often used his new Aura Abilities to read how a Pokemon is thinking or when an Egg might hatch. He is the strongest battler out of Hunter’s team.

Riolu is one of the most popular Baby Pokemon and it and Lucario would for sure be Pokemon that Hunter would want on his team. Not only is this line really good in battle, but I also think that it would fit Hunter so well to have a Pokemon that evolves via friendship.

Woody the Sudowoodo

Moves:

Rock Slide

Low Kick

Slam

Fire Punch

Like Marley and Ripley, Woody was hatched by Hunter from an Egg. Woody looked up to Ripley as a strong battler and would always train with him. As a Bonsly, Woody was shy and scared who knew how to use his tears to get Hunter’s attention. After evolving, Woody developed a love of pranking and making other Pokemon laugh.

Like the prior two, Bonsly is a Baby Pokemon. I chose the Bonsly line from Hunter’s final member because it often pretends to be a tree to deceive others and Hunter used to have to pretend to be okay with his destiny, plus I thought the fact that he looks like a tree to be a great bit of irony.

And there is Hunter's team! I hope you liked it! Next team will be out soon! I am planning on releasing another soon, so feel free to comment any suggestions!

COMPLETE LIST OF NAMED CLONE TROOPERS Organized by Unit *updated 3/8/23*

Ever needed to know who served under Jedi Master Luminara Unduli? Trying to name an OC and don’t want to repeat a name? Use this handy guide! I went through the list on Clone Trooper Wiki and organized everyone. Many of these names do not have verifiable links, but if it was a name and it was on the list, I included it.

Some notes: An *asterisk in front of a name denotes a group leader of some sort.

(Sorry about the pictures. There’s no way I could have formatted this on tumblr. And be sure and click through to the original permalink! Because things may have been updated since this has been in circulation. Also if you think someone is missing from the list, please tell me who and where they belong.)

Hey all I made a poll expanding other to add rogue one and Andor characters go vote in that one. After both these polls finish I will make a final poll comparing the two winners to see who is truly the saddest death on Star Wars.
