But sometimes exclusion is necessary as an initial stepping stone to inclusiveness. It is a lengthy discussion that always rears its head when we discuss spaces that are created by/for non-POC because we are never the default (e.g. HBCUs, Black girls code, national society of black engineers). So let’s narrow our…

If Hamilton wasn’t wildly successful, no one would care. Now that it’s the hottest Broadway show on the planet white people are all “Wait praise, prestige and high paychecks? That’s my job!”

ALL OF YOU BUYING TICKETS TO THIS ARE JUST ENABLING ZACH SNYDER

That was masterful, Bobby. I was like “who could it be?!” wondering what level of horror I would reach ... and then the Lovitz shot. Just NO. I actually said, out loud, in my office all alone “NO”.

That she found a much older man isn’t the story here. It’s that the much older man happens to be Jon Lovitz. And that they teased out the big reveal over several meticulously crafted Instagram posts.

OK, first off: Jessica Who?

I KNOW she is part Sami, I’ve said it here many times. Doesn’t mean she can’t be bothered by heavy eye folds. You’re judging a person you don’t know at all.

Woman gets nicknamed Squinty for decades and then “fixes it,” only to have people act perplexed. Go figure.

I’m thinking some kind of dominatrix service, where rich hipster dudes who felt bad about their gentrifying, culturally appropriating ways paid me to smack them on the ass with it.

Fight Club 2: Rain Stickin’!

Okay, well, what do you do for a living? I am sure I have all kinds of thoughts on how is way less hard than you think, and has a lot more perks than you think, and is not as soul-crushingly undervalued as you think. Since you dated a teacher, I am sure you understand what it is like to be a mandated reported of…

If one could only look for jobs in the immediate area, you’d have to become an expert in a lot of things real quick, or start getting comfortable moving whenever the work environment changed.

I’m not being dismissed of studies, I’m being dismissive of you, because of your tone throughout this thread. The article is specific to teachers. Hence most people discussing teachers in the thread. You seem to have a different axe to grind, and it seems to be an anti-teacher stance hiding behind some general…

The fact that you led with “dated a teacher for a year” doesn’t really strengthen your argument. I’m not going to bother dissecting the rest.

“3 months off.” Do you know how many teachers work summer school, or other non-teaching jobs to support their families? Do you know teaching jobs are tied to nine month, not twelve month, contracts, and that teachers are essentially giving their towns interest-free loans while their paltry salaries are parceled out…

You really ought to have read some of these comments before you voiced your opinion. Your understanding of teaching as a career is entirely insufficient.

This is especially a problem in pink collar jobs. Women are expected to survive on their own compassion.

I work in a DC suburb and live even further out in a “bedroom community” of DC/Baltimore. People that live where I work, work in DC. People that live where I live, commute in to DC or Baltimore. People that work where I live, live in apartments, OLD farm houses, or are supplemented by a partner’s income in…

And, thus, further confirming that dropping out of my graduate program towards becoming a teacher was a good idea.

“Foster to adopt” means that the family would like to adopt eventually. IT DOES NOT MEAN that the state will only place adoptable children into that family’s home. Source.
