Talk to me about literature, race, gender, indigeneity, higher ed, fiber art, bicycling, protest, & the Dodgers. (She/her).
I am once again asking you to check the syllabus and spell your professor's name correctly on your paper.

The Dodgers hate their east coast fans.
I have to teach in 6 hours.

OMG #Dodgers it's after 11 00 EST. How am I supposed to sleep after that 9th inning!?!

If you hated me in life, the last fucking thing in the world I want is for you to pretend to respect me just because I’m dead

Today, a student told me she's really getting into Toni Morrison's Paradise, & she would never have picked up this book if she hadn't been in this class.
So it was a good day.

Weird compliments:
Yesterday, my dentist complimented my saliva output.

Back to school faculty meeting: the provost gives out 3 faculty awards & 1 staff award. Wanna guess the gender of the faculty who won prizes and the gender of the person who won the staff prize?

Arlen has better bike infrastructure than Fayetteville NC, & Fayetteville is real. We'll, kind of real. It's not like we've got decent bike infrastructure or anything.

My husband called a movie "cringe," & the 19yo says, "Cringe is dead." 23yo agrees- it's judgemental. 19yo explains: "Let people enjoy their silly little things. Let them have joy in their lives."
The kids are all right.

Two birds, one stone.
Pbs should hire Colbert to do the late show but have it as a pbs passport only show.

Rural & indigenous stations get a larger percentage of their operating costs from CPB/NPR, & do a lot of community connections, covering local events & events. They need our help! Donate! Buy a cool shirt or mug!

Kershaw is driving me nuts. Any other situation, he'd already have the Ks. C'mon, buddy.

Isn't it TACO time on base tonight?

I'm a faculty rep for a BOT committee. At today's meeting, we talked about how international students are afraid to come here, & measles.
What a world.

Watching LAD vs NYY & they keep running the catfishing Nana mattress commercial. It's disturbing in & of itself, but is made moreso by the fact that I used to play in a church handball choir with the actress.

My son is helping me clean the laundry room. Like, I moved the washer & dryer & he's back there clearing out junk & sweeping & mopping on the (absolutely true) premise that he's skinnier than I am.

My mother lives in a crappy town in AZ; today, she said she had been feeling sick lately. I asked why & got the long story of how she went to drop off some donations at church and was shot at while defending some kinds who were running from their mom's horrible boyfriend. The thing is, I know 1/2

I have a student who apparently makes her living doing "Get Ready With Me" TikTok videos, so she did one for her final project, in which she did her makeup & discussed the class, which she summed up: "10/10; would emotionally spiral again."
I might put this in my annual review & on my faculty page.

Today I taught a Ukrainian English teacher the phrase "play Devil's advocate."
This is the second most exciting thing I've done this week.
The most exciting? I came home on Monday w a migraine coming on, so I switched dinner nights with my husband, took a shower, took medicine, & slept for 11 hours.

"we''ll make the deal for them"

trump fundamentally conceives as every interaction as a variant on rape, exhibit #1239878927891237891230789413
Trump: "Everybody wants to make a deal. And if they don't want to make a deal, we'll make the deal for them. Because that's what's going to happen. We'll just say, 'this is what it is.'"
