Also, “he’s jumped straight to open relationship, which he feels will take pressure off of me” feels like some pretty rank gaslighting. Sounds like in about a year MVP is going to realize that her wonderful boyfriend was kiiiiiiiiiiiiind of a massive asshat.

Liberals with money tend to want a progressive society. They just don’t want that progressive society to affect their economic privilege, their social privilege, and to be exposed to the grasping hands of the poor.

Yep. One of the best things my doctoral school has done is absolutely beat the idea out of us that it’s enough for our teaching to be a labor of love (ie: something you value so much you would “do it for free.”). Nope. Nada. Not gonna happen. Nothing for free. Academic labor is labor and it deserves to be compensated.…

It’s astounding how often this happens. A friend of mine had been adjuncting at a school for years, and the school came to him and said they wanted him to develop the courses he taught (theater) into an accredited major/minor for the school. He went to all the meetings with the dean, and the expectation was that once…

Good for them. My sister just got screwed by a school when they basically halved the amount they were willing to pay her to completely redesign a course (as an adjunct). After pointing out that it would take significantly more hours than they were willing to pay, she was told to take it or leave it.

I LOVE LENA DUNHAM. There, I said it.

They exist! It’s basically threading together several hundred interviews and memories of people in a certain place and time. There’s one about Edie Sedgewick that’s quite famous.

You do realize this is a great movie. It’s in two parts: a daughter and a mother in present time with flashbacks to the mother’s life as a model and to the mother and daughter at various times as the daughter grows up. The daughter narrates with voice-over.

??? “Hey, we didn’t want you to know you’re getting paid way less than your colleagues because you may feel sad about being vastly underpaid. You see, we’re looking out for your well-being!” I usually don’t say this to random strangers on the internet but get that concern trolling shit out of here.

Where did you get this information? Did you do some research before posting that?

This is the attitude Republicans want us to have — my compensation is shitty so I’m going prevent other people from getting paid. Getting us to fight over crumbs.

It seems like most people tend to think that teachers only work from the first bell to the last bell but they could not be more wrong.

It is better than the sequel where the dog jumps into the river, gets swept into some rapids and is pulverized on the river boulders. It is called Arthur 2: On The Rocks.

No, I totally get what you mean. And you are correct, if we were living in a rational universe.

This is not shortsightedness. This is a deliberate attempt to re-segregate Louisville. Their preferred end state would be a whites only city. They will settle for a white dominated society.

I expect nothing less from a state which re elects a lipless sadist known as Mitch McConnell over and over.
