Palestinian friends, I apologize for not responding to you right away. I am afraid that I have no money to spare for a long while and I think more people would see my shared posts if I take an occasional day to post about other things. I am deeply sorry.

Palestinian friends,
I am so sorry, I do not have enough to spare for most of you. I will do what I can when I am able. I am so glad to hear from you just to know that you are alive. May you stay safe until the terror ends 🫂

Thinking about Christmas presents? Maybe you want to get a book of little paper figures from a classic work of literature for the reader in your life!

He’s Trump for liberals. I hate it and we deserve better than bigotry lite.

He even looks like a Trump failson, get a hairstyle that doesn’t look greased with pure sleaze.

Newsom has some strange vetoes/views on environmental policy, trans rights, labor rights, and homelessness that require some serious questions from liberals.

At first, I launched my campaign in deep despair. Then your kindness brought hope back into my heart. Lately, the struggle feels heavy again, but I truly believe my campaign will rise because of your support. Your strength reminds me new beginnings are possible 🍉🇵🇸🕊

idk not to mention how very nuanced and normal the actual response here was
Trans Professors comment Mel Curth (She/They) November 16, 2025 at 2:04 PM Please note that I am not deducting points because you have certain beliefs, but instead I am deducting point for you posting a reaction paper that does not answer the questions for this assignment, contradicts itself, heavily uses personal ideology over empirical evidence in a scientific class, and is at times offensive. While you are entitled to your own personal beliefs, there is an appropriate time or place to implement them in your reflections. I encourage all students to question or challenge the course material with other empirical findings or testable hypotheses, but using your own personal beliefs to argue against the findings of not only this article, but the findings of countless articles across psychology, biology, sociology, etc. is not best practice. You argue that abiding by normative gender roles is beneficial (it is perfectly fine to believe this. but to then say that evervone should act TPUSA OU Trans Professors comment the same, while also saying that people aren't pressured into gendered expectations is contradictory, especially since your arguments reflect a religious pressure to act in gender-stereotypical ways. You can say that strict gender norms don't create gender stereotypes, but that isn't true by definition of what a stereotype is. Please note that acknowledging gender stereotypes does not immediately denote a negative connotation, a nuance this article discusses. Additionally, to call an entire group of people "demonic" is highly offensive, especially a minoritized population. You are entitled to your own beliefs, but this isn't a vague narrative of "society pushes lies," but instead the result of countless years developing psychological and scientific evidence for these claims and directly interacting with the communities involved. You may personally disagree with this, but that TPUSA OU 2 Trans Professors comment doesn't change the fact that every major psychological, medical, pediatric, and psychiatric association in the United States acknowledges that, biologically and psychologically, sex and gender is neither binary nor fixed. I implore you apply some more perspective and empathy in your work. If you personally disagree with the findings, then by all means share your criticisms, but make sure to do so in a way that is appropriate and using the methodology of empirical psychology, as aligned with the learning goals in this class. If you have any additional questions or concerns about this or would like some additional educational resources, I would be happy to discuss this further and provide you with them. 3 TPUSA OU Additional professor Megan Waldron (She/Her/Hers) November 16, 2025 at 3:09 PM Samantha, I am the other instructor for this course, and I have also taken the time to read your paper. I concur with Mel on the grade you received. This paper should not be considered as a completion of the assignment. Everyone has different ways in which they see the world, but in an academic course such as this you are being asked to support your ideas with empirical evidence and higher-level reasoning. I find it concerning that you state at the beginning of your paper that you do not think bullying ("teasing") is a bad thing. In addition, your paper directly and harshly criticizes your peers and their opinions, which are just as valuable as yours. Disagreeing with others is fine, but there is a respectful way to go about it. That goes for discussion posts as well as reaction papers. Please employ more thoughtfulness in your future assignments TPUSA OU

This is my little brother Omar.
When we were forced to get displaced again, he couldn’t bring anything for winter. Now the cold has arrived, and he still has only his summer clothes. He shivers all night.
We simply can’t afford these “basics” anymore; we have no income, no way to prepare.

I heard a tiny noise that might have been a chirp and hoping it’s not a dying smoke alarm battery. We have at least seven of those fuckers and it’s impossible to find the one that’s going off without taking all their batteries out one at a time til the chirp stops.

Romance covers waaaaaay more territory than people think. There are loads of really great fantasy and scifi stories 'hidden' in romance just because it has a romance and/or smut in it.

Does anybody have screen prints or paintings that I should add to my Christmas wishlist?

I told family to just donate that money, but in the event that they don’t they might as well help me support other artists.

Ghazal and her family are living in ruins; even their only shelter, made of canvas, has been destroyed by rain and wind. They are enduring the harsh winter and need our help to keep warm and secure food and clothing during the bitter cold

Put the kids in daycare and make art again.
Get enough of a recharge to actually write again. Read a dozen books at a time.

I live a relatively happy life, I just miss productivity.
