I'm sorry that happened. But it's not the professor's fault. I'm surprised to hear that no one confronted those ridiculous myths. I'm sorry the class atmosphere was such that you were unable to leave so that you could take care of yourself and that you didn't feel comfortable going to a counselor when you realized…

I wouldn't have made fun of the student, but that request is absurd. I'm sure that assignment was on the syllabus from day 1. If you can't handle drawing a nude model, take pottery or stained glass.

OK. You have 100 students in your class. It's a journalism class. They're going to be reading the daily newspaper. You give weekly quizzes on the main stories in the news.

It's not an awful hostile work environment. It's work. In a career path I chose. It's up to me to figure out to handle situations that might be triggering.

It's a journalism class where the reading is CNN and the NYT. What do they think they'll be reading about?

I hear the Berenstain Bears are nice.

I work in a newsroom and in academia.

No. I'm not going to change my reading list to address your special needs, because I have another student who was in the Iraq war, and has different triggers, and another student who has an eating disorder and has different triggers. I have over 100 students. I cannot be guardian for all of their mental health…

Except that it is average water cooler fodder. Take the rape scene in Game of Thrones. Everyone in my office was talking about that- even the men b/c they'd read the books as well.

My concern is that the world will not present itself with trigger warnings. And triggers aren't always evident, as I know personally.

I think it's demeaning to have newsrooms full of old white men who dictate the news and then hire mostly young, white men to continue the tradition.

This is a dumb question, I'm sorry. But can I do any of this on my Iphone? Are Google Now or Google Play features available at all?

?? It's awful that I said that there are no women in positions of power in newsrooms and I'd like to see movement in that direction, no matter what color or sexual preference or gender identification they are? mmmkay.

Yeah. I'd like to see a lot more women in positions of power first before I start demanding color/trans/whatever.

I think it's hilarious when self-righteous people judge others for being judgmental.

So uh, you're upset that .. people are upset about an ad? Why do you care? Should people just be upset about the things you chose to be upset about? I don't think it works that way.

Was it an autobiographic ad where they were talking about how he'd wanted to be a pilot since he was a kid and flew in the Navy and then crashed the plane? Then, yes.

Noooo! Nooo! The foot! The turnout. Noooo.

Why do you hate SYTYCD? Because the best dancer never wins? I do love some of the choreography - that hummingbird and the flower dance was amazing.

Hi, this is the internet. This is where we go to be wasteful and rage. That's how we keep it in the rest of the time.
