When I was a kid, a friend of mine told me that she wasn't afraid of eating a particular thing (don't remember what it was anymore) because it was natural and God wouldn't make anything to hurt her. My response was that God made rattlesnakes ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I think this is such a common belief.

That's awesome, thank you! I've been thinking about leading an informal stitching hangout at Kalamazoo next time I go. I do have one more marginalia but pictured her, and I'm just starting to design a fifth. 😁

My students think I'm crazy with how hard I hype up writing as technology. I, literally, get choked up in class!

YES!! THE PROCESS IS THE POINT! I have started focusing on this. I literally say "I don't assign essays because I want to read your essays, I assign them because I want you to write essays!"

I also have students play Plague Inc, to simullate one of the diseases we discuss in class and write an essay on what they discover

I really like Plague Ports by Myron Echenberg. It's about the third plague pandemic in the 1890s-1901. It focuses on a different global city for each chapter, and talks a lot about medical inequalities and culture. My students really like it.
