I’m always a little astonished when a student says my class is their favorite. Today I asked a student why and he shrugged. “It’s just a good class”. Been feeling overwhelmed and grumpy so it’s nice to hear. Honestly, I think it’s the other students but I’m still glad,

I made cardboard stamps and used acrylic paint #nerdfarters letterpress
“Pizza” in red and a slice of pepperoni pizza. All with missing strips of color because of the cardboard

My cults have collided. Day 4 of #nerdfarters
A mola mola with makeup and a caption. “I am here to parlay with the leaders of the fort. Take me to them immediately… so I may discuss the conditions of my army’s surrender to your glorious cause. The cause of freedom. Freedom from tyranny.”

I’m in! It’ll be an abundance of hastily drawn mediocrity on my part, sketchy sketches all the way down, if you will.

But the idea that all men are monsters doesn’t solve the socialization problem we’re having. I love men. I have loved men who’ve done monstrous things. They alone are responsible for those things but we need to change something fundamental and it feels impossible.

I don’t know the answer. Just that the question seems more complicated than we’re making it. The venting is necessary and understandable… but also? I dunno. Not feeling great about it right now because it’s true that women worry about being murdered while men worry about getting their feelings hurt.

The number of kind, thoughtful men with terrible trauma filled pasts who have told me women have it easier and being a white man is hard, is concerning. Our discourse surrounding this rape story is absolutely deserved but it’s also not reaching the ears it needs to in the way it needs to.

I once had a neighbor’s outdoor cat sneak into my house and have kittens. I thought she was a stray so I bought a litter box and cat food and took her to the vet. I found homes for all the kittens and had made an appointment to have her spayed when the neighbor accused me of stealing her cat.

I hate that John Green could write this book because that means that he knows what this fucking feels like. But you know, good book. Bah. Not spoiling it, but damn.

Marilyn Something @marilynbeagle.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
My therapist says feeling things is important but I wasn’t planning on feeling things today. Could we schedule that for later in the week? John Green books are full of feelings. I expected that. Just not these particular ones. But also, lots of quotable quotes. I wonder which ones will stick.

Made a silly thing because I needed to make something.
A snail rendered in black lines with circular areas of bright color. Kind of a messy 70’s vibe… or early 80’s maybe.

I’m going to need the print version so I can highlight and make notes- After I take a teeny break to feel the things about my most terrible thing.

I am a few hours in to Hollywood, Ending. It’s good but I went into it unspoiled (like John suggested) and I actually should have read the reviews. I kinda needed that bit spoiled. I’ll be fine but it’s just a lot for me right now. But I’m not kidding about it being good…

But I know both my kids and my content better than the admin evaluating me and much better than the district folks evaluating them.

Teachers are being held accountable to standards they don’t believe in and had no hand in creating… I agree. I’ll go in there next week and put the best face on a curriculum that is nonsensical in its sequencing and shallow in its scope because I can’t imagine doing any other job.

This episode of humans was really interesting. I’m paraphrasing because I’ve got ten things going on this evening but Ted Dintersmith says…

It’s infuriating but I got three thirty minute cardio sessions in this week because I got up at four AM and went to the gym. I am sorry to report that I feel better.

I was having a hard time getting my afternoon workouts in. I whined about it to my friends and my therapist for weeks… then my daughter said, “look, the only way you’ll have the social life you want and still work out is if you go before work.” …

And it’s not really the fault of the individual guys. They’re really trying.

This is true and I get it but I’m weary from trying to manage the emotional impact on men I care about. I wish society would fix the broken way it views male emotions in general. I work so hard not to make my hurt feelings other people’s problems but male hurt feelings hurt everyone

Just to be clear, you should read DCC. It’s entertaining and has a lot more depth than you think when you start the series

I’ve been listening to a lot of rpg lit books (not Dungeon Crawler Carl) and I haven’t been posting because I like them but I also have a lot of criticism. Now a friend has me starting the Wheel of Time so I’ll probably have more to say.
