I think you misunderstand me, but it’s not a very Goethe joke, is it

I’m grading an exam for my Civil War class and so so many of my students are misgendering Faust when discussing her article about Civil War deaths. On the one hand, gender is a construct, so why make a big deal and correct them? On the the other hand, I was at Harvard when she was inaugurated & attended the ceremony…

DON’T YOU FUCKING RUIN THIS FOR ME

Open thread!????

I’M AT HAPPY HOUR BECAUSE TODAY FUCKING SUCKED.

Wonder Woman gif party.
