Ok, thank you for this. So many comments focus on the fact that a campus health clinic is not equipped to deal with a rape kit without focusing on the fact that they made a rape victim go alone in an Uber to the hospital, where she then waited alone in the waiting room for over three hours. Absolutely you send someone

She was only 14. Either someone bought it for her or she stole it from someone. I’m going to guess it belonged to a parent. :/

Oh my god. She was 14 years old. I...have nothing to say.

People would take him seriously if only he smiled more and talked less.

Ouch. He should channel his hair time into finding Pokemon or something because it is NOT working out for him.

Waitwaitwait. The wall is to keep them out??? I thought we were trying to keep the Mexicans in so they can’t flee once we elect Supreme Leader Trump and the country goes to shit.

No, you’re not misremembering. :/

It took me 8 months and over a hundred miles of walks and bus rides, but I listened to War and Peace that way! Audiobooks—well-read audiobooks—are the best.

Are you telling me that guys under 30 don’t pretend to read Kerouac anymore?

Oh thank god I thought I was some kind of freak. I can’t ever name a favorite but I can give you my top ten (which shift sometimes).

Edit: it sounds like you’re in a good place. Sorry for the AM pile on!

Ugh. I agree with your feeling that you were fed a lot of bullshit about taking that paycut. You did what you needed to so you could acheive the object you needed more: the move. Good luck on negotiating that raise i think you said you were working on upthread!

Who was that Man of the People who said that poor kids should work as janitors at their schools? What a brilliant thinker, that one. Ahead of his time.

No! You’re not! Terrible, narcissistic people, especially those with addictions or abuse to hide, tend to know how to be charming. Weiner was charming. He was a Democrat on fire! He was showing those Republicans! And he is a sex addict and an unrepentant cheater. Bill Clinton: charming, cheater, sexual harasser. Alan

I mean, is it formulaic? Yeah, AND I LOVE IT. You can pry it, my cheesy romance novels and the Fast and Furious franchise from my cold dead whatevers.

Problem-solving, anger management and how to work out a conflict need to be taught in addition to pedagogy. It doesn’t matter how many times you read Freire if you can’t keep your cool when confronted by a misbehaving kid. This kid wasn’t even misbehaving!

Yes, so much this. All humiliation teaches you is:
1) Be sneakier
2) Get revenge
3) Humiliate others when you are in power

Oh, I’m sure they’d be happy to keep us as workers, but we’d have to renounce our American citizenship and become citizens of Mexico. ;)

What kills me, what I just do not understand, is how these guys can look at their own actions to grow the government and get government tentacles into private life and then say they’re small-government. It’s like me looking at a burger and saying it’s a taco. It doesn’t actually make it a taco.

:(:(:(
