A poor (wo)man's SmartPhone...
So… 3 years ago my dad’s old renters left behind an iTouch. He didn’t find it until months later, and it was hidden in a cupboard. When he called their old number to ask if it was theirs, they said no. He then decided to bring it home to me, but I had no idea what to do with it since it was password protected. I ended up putting it away in my desk and forgetting about it.
Until...

Ways Gender-Privileged Men Can Challenge Sexism
punkisays:
Ways Gender-Privileged Men Can Challenge Sexism
meeca:
(This list will be forever in-progress. Please add on as you see fit).
Challenge sexist jokes, such as dumb blonde jokes or jokes about rape.
Avoid using words such as “bitch”, “ho”, “slut.”
Recognize when you “zone out” when women are speaking, when you value a man’s opinion more than a woman’s, or when you ask a man for...

Senior Prank
So, for my placement school’s senior prank the seniors decided to totally “flip” the classrooms of teachers who instruct twelfth graders. By “flip” I mean that they literally took all of the tables/chairs/desks out of the classrooms and stacked them in the inner hallways, and then took every single poster and sign down from the classrooms’s walls and put them in...

-I promise I’m not trying to look promiscuous in this turtleneck. -I would button this cardigan, but then there’s going to be that gap between these buttons and that is just asking for people to think about just how large my chest is. -Maybe if I wear this scarf it will hide the fact that my boobs are so big and people will take my opinions seriously.

If You're Not Upset, You're not Paying Attention

Today in Washington DC the GOP held a Congressional oversight hearing about the new birth control mandate.
Not one woman was on the panel for the hearing.
Let me repeat.
In a hearing about birth control, an issue that affects largely women, not one woman was on the panel.
Not only were there no women on the Congressional panel, but not one...

Frustration
This is the fourth week in a row my 6th period Integrated Science class has almost sent me home in tears. I literally have no idea how to get through to them. They’re either zombies, merely warm bodies with a semblance of a pulse, or they’re screaming banshees, unable to control their desire to talk, gossip and howl with laughter.
I don’t know what to do.
Even my CT...

The Scandalous Side of Genetics
So… Today in my Biology class my CT had the students do a genetics lab called “Making A Baby.” Y’all can probably guess what the lab entailed, but I’m going to give a brief summary anyways. Since we’re moving on to Mendelian genetics now, we’re starting to introduce the students to genotype and phenotype, and what it means to be either heterozygous or...

Valentine's Day Mayhem
Today is going to be INSANE at my high school. My kids always seem to go over the top for their friends’ and significant others’ birthdays, and I’m not sure I can even fathom how crazy things are going to be today.
I’m thinking…. - So many balloons kids will have a hard time getting through the halls - Huge boxes of chocolates - Hand made gifts (food and otherwise)...
