Auto-captions having an absolute FIELD DAY with the word "normate" as I try to provide video feedback to my most intrepid, early submitting, students.

Any of my disability studies folks have a favorite reading to introduce students to chronic illness and/as disability? (I use Susan Wendell's "Unhealthy Disabled" and it is good, but I'm doing a lot of updating this semester.)

I like this notetaking example. it is a good case of how gender works. Notetaking has never been about producing a transcript. It is a bureaucratic skill in the 20th c. organixarion because it is SENSEMAKING. Those women socialized to take notes? They have been doing men’s metacognition for them

Continuing through Sir Charles Grandison and currently furious with Harriet, who, on finding out about SCG's Italian love drama, haaad to be like "no, before I learn more about the sexy stuff I would like the longest lectures on virtue the world has ever seen" thus inflicting those lectures on US.

re: polls showing that Americans want to keep their employer provided insurance, the key thing to emphasize is that nobody gets to decide that already. fired or switch jobs, or your boss decides to change plans, which can and does happen all the time, poof

your employer can also POOF change your decent insurance to, say, UHC with practically no notice, functionally inflicting a pay cut as well as all the other shit involved in such a move

There is an article I have returned to every July since 2023, always in the midst of having my summers dashed by illness and surgeries. But THIS TIME no one has shingles, top surgery is long done, and no one has tripped over a cat and torn their knee cartilage[1]. I am WRITING this shit.

Thrilled to announce that a combination of drugs, numbing, and having my partner hold my terrified little hand, got me through replacing my IUD after 9 years. The first time should never have been as traumatizing as it was. The measures my current doctor took to make it tolerable were simple

Just picked up a prescription that came to $0.02. Couldn't find a penny, so handed the pharmacist a dime. She took it, put it in the register, then said "...I guess I will just round up your change?" and handed me a different dime.

For my newsletter, I wrote about how bad I feel for Flo Balogun and the USMNT and how mad I am at Trump, Infantino, and US Soccer donor Scott Griffin. They took something away from all of us and for what? www.burnsnotice.com/usmnt-fifa-t...

for Americans new to the sport, 3-2 in football is roughly equivalent to 817-620 in one of your sports.

With that said, the proper sports fan protocol is this: Americans should root for Balogun without feeling guilty. Belgians and other opposing fans should root for America to lose 1-0 on a Balogun own goal.

A new pool league teammate innocently asked if the bar is usually hot or cold. One of us is from a warm place and always freezing. Two of us have middling thyroids and are always melting. The others are like "idk it's usually fine, our bodies regulate temperature". So all this was no help at all.
