Rahm Emanuel (asshat mayor of Chicago) lost half a finger in high school because he cut almost through the finger on a meat slicer at Arbys. Instead of going to the hospital he wrapped it up and went to prom. He ended up with a bone infection and was hospitalized for days, even after the finger was amputated.

Chicago Public Schools just pushed some schools to a 9am start and everyone is mad about that. Can science prove why no one is ever satisfied?

I do too..it totally works for earth/space science, yes? We’re on earth, we take up space, nailed it

While this is obviously a step forward, I’d be terrified for my trans friends to be outed in the military. The higher ups still allow rampant rape and assault to go unpunished. What will they do when some bigots attack trans individuals?

What’s really weird to me is that even though she obviously looks amazing because come on, it’s Helen Mirren, she doesn’t look flawlessly airbrushed amazing. She looks like a really attractive older lady. Sorry she isn’t wrinkled enough for the haters?

Umm just found my next project. Fuck starting an etsy store, this is my life’s calling

I can do regular french braids (although tbh I try to do a much better job on other people than myself because fuck it, who am I trying to impress, so I get stressed about doing other people) but I think because I taught myself the bangs in the mirror I just can’t figure it out. I end up pulling the braid further and…

That’s my issue with braiding my bangs! On my own head it’s easy but on someone else I’m completely lost

I can French braid my own hair and my students were astounded. I mean it’s def not as nice as if someone did it for me but I honestly believe anyone can do it

I don’t even know how to feel about this. Gut reaction is a “holy shit look at this asshole” but then I think about how easy it is to normalize shit at 10. Can we get a followup in 15 years and see if he’s an asshole or he finally learned the value of hard work? Am I being naive?

Ugh I honestly hate when the restaurant staff questions how well done I want my meat. I get that well done isn’t classy. Yes, I know it will be drier than a rare steak. I’m not going to complain that it’s too dry. Now give me the fucking steak/venison/bison I asked for, thanks

Yeah as much as I abhor the terrible subreddits, there are so many normal people who use it (my boyfriend, brother, and best friend included). I wish there was an unbiased source for information about Wtf is going on over there

Who needs a $100 mouse? Like I’m not being sarcastic, I’m just really confused

Yeah so that’s why the next step is ALWAYS running the numbers and giving the class results. I make sure they get the problem when everyone claims “not my kid, the herd will protect them” and there’s no herd left

I always manage to fit in a vaccine lesson set with the writing assignment “Write a letter to Rahm Emanuel explaining why vaccines should or should not be required for CPS students.” A TON of kids (9th grade) say shouldn’t because of herd immunity. The next class I tell the students whether they’d be at risk if…

They’re*. Damn voice to text

Nah I'm pretty sure their pictures of kids forced to listen to his bullshit

It’s proactive with respect to a lawsuit though

Why do people think it’s so adorable when 16-17 year old girls date 24-30 year old men as long as they’re famous? If my students were dating 24 year olds I’d be calling parents & police, not cooing about what a cute couple they are..

True, but having an older boyfriend is not the same as being attacked ON FILM by your teammates
