Why can we call Trump a birther, but not a white supremacist?
How can Trump defend KKK, white nationalists, and Confederate statues, but not be called a white supremacist?
How can Trump unconstitutionally attack Mexicans, Muslims, immigrants, and refugees, all while prioritizing whiteness, and not be called a white supremacist?
CaryOur little dog is insanely jealous of the cats, so she is always growling and trying to keep them away from the wife and me, but since the dog is smaller than all of the cats they just ignore her and plop down next to her (half the time they start licking her which is hilarious because she simultaneously kinda likes it and hates it).
She was able to intimidate the foster kitten for a while, but now it is probably the same size as her, so it keeps wary distance, but if she does a fake lunge towards the kitten it just whacks her instead of running away.






























Friday, Cassini will dive into Saturn’s atmosphere and put an end to its nearly 20 year mission. Over those years we learned an incredible amount of information about Saturn, its rings, and its many moons. During the grand finale, Cassini will continue to send back information about Saturns atmosphere before burning up like a shooting star.
CaryI had small classes in my 3rd/4th years of college -- whenever *everybody* did bad on a given test, we shamed the prof into taking us out for beer.
As an educator, I hate the bell curve system, but I really hate teachers who say, “You won’t get an A in my class.” It’s not just because it causes students to begin the semester with a feeling that they will fail the course: it’s because it is the teacher admitting to their own failure to teach.
We are literally paid to teach a full curriculum. “I don’t give out A’s” to me translates to “I cannot 100% do my job.” There is no reason a good teacher can’t give you an 80-100% understanding of what is in the course. It’s our job to make sure you understand as much as we can.
A class average of 50 is isn’t a statement of how hard the material is. It’s a statement that the teacher cannot complete 50% of their job.
My grandfather was a professor and he always felt this way. He had colleagues who were very proud of their failing statistics and he always said that if students were failing, the teacher was failing. Your job is to teach them to understand the subject matter.

MRAs in a nutshell
This might be the truest one of these I have ever fucking seen.

“How many times do we expect black people to build our country for us?” Omfg that. There are probably SO MANY angry white people right now.

Being autistic isn’t a bad thing.
It isn’t a disease.
It isn’t curable.
Autistic people aren’t broken.The world is simply not built for us.
Our brains just work differently.
We perceive things differently.
We understand things differently.If the society we live in doesn’t work for us, it’s society that needs changing. Because we can’t change, and we shouldn’t have to change.
Also, Autism Speaks is trash.

CaryWhen we had a pet one when I was a kid it would sit on the couch and eat potato chips/popcorn like that. We usually had a little tumbler glass of water wedged between the cushions for her, but if he wasn't watching, she would go for my brother's beer.
