If likelihoods are what’s concerning, the boys would benefit more from learning about confidence and making friends since they have much higher rates of suicide than girls. I don’t think this agenda was about likelihoods though.

I also like how splitting the classes along the gender dichotomy is going to make the classes “more dynamic”. Seriously?

YUP! Rural Maine in the 80s. This is what we got.

After the GOP debate last night I was bouncing between CBS and NBC and stepped in some Fox News. They had 2 local professors discussing the debate and one was saying how well Fiorina had done. Then he said this: “She was informed, she was reasoned, she was on on-point, she was strong. The question is, was she too…

managed to convince the school to let me go into shop for a semester if a boy agreed to swap

As an educator in Texas, our school districts have been on my shit list for years.

“You should feel good about yourself! But not too good. Feel a little bad about yourself, too, or the boys won’t like you and the girls will think you’re a bitch.”

Between this and the kid with the clock, Texas school districts are on my shit list.

I feel like if I had MORE confidence and maybe less boyfriend when I was younger I would have had a much more productive life.

You have to love how teaching girls “confidence” is on the menu while teaching boys about college, careers and salaries. I’m going to go out on a limb here and suggest that if the girls had the opportunity to learn about planning for their future, they’d be a lot more confident. Radical idea, I know.

lol @ “can we have TOO MUCH confidence” already undercutting, undermining them, sowing doubt. get used to it while you’re young girls!!

Or...she could have just fallen in love with him and gotten married like any other person, and is now desperately hurt and confused as the fallout from his fascination with other women continues to affect their lives. She is a very successful woman in her own right and didn’t need to marry anyone for convenience. I…

Who hitched to whose wagon, again? Huma was working in the White House before Anthony ran for Congress.

Carlos Danger was one of the best parts of John Oliver subbing for Jon Stewart that summer. I can still hear the music and picture the dance.

I can’t imagine what being his wife is like. She’s cool as fuck, though.

She was a child actress in her not-so-past life, so it makes sense. I’d love to see her host SNL too!!

I think it could be but it’s tricky. I think it’s important that the artist gives props to the singers before them to avoid that. And Christina has definitely has. She has always stated who her inspirations were (mainly Etta James, which is why she got to sing at her funeral). It’s not shocking that some of the best…

Maybe a stupid question, but I may as well ask it here as anywhere (the Christina impression got me thinking about it):

Giving credit where it’s due, the Celine impression was pretty impressive. Also, any friend of Mika’s can’t be hole-y awful.

She definitely sang in her hairbrush along with Britney and Christina when she was little. So, like, a year ago.
