Hey assholes — I see a miscarriage most shifts. Some days I see two or three. They happen ALL THE TIME.
Stop fucking assuming every woman who loses a pregnancy is aborting it intentionally. First off, they probably aren’t. Second, it’s none of your goddamn motherfucking business. Third, if you’re so sure these are all humans, give the mom some fucking space to process the loss.
Buncha fucking guys whose wives never talk to them about the miscarriages they have had. Says a lot.
If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.
Do you support the people destroying everything? Or do you support the people who won’t stop them
Just in case you need another reason to quit using LinkedIn.

Just talked to a student who was completely freaking out about the final project presentation, to the point of having a panic attack. I gently pointed out that since the final project isn't a huge part of the grade (15%) and it's not a required course component, they can just NOT DO IT, and still pass the class. This had never occurred to them, and they were SO relieved.
A totally undervalued part of education is learning what things just aren't worth your time/effort, and walking away.
It's time to stop calling this the Trump economic plan. It's the entire Republican party economic plan.
It takes me at least a couple of hours to decorate a pot this size. I brush three layers of terra sigillata into each section, alternating the different types of clay in a rhythmic symmetry. Then I’ll bisque fire the pot, apply glaze and fire one last time. I haven’t made as much progress this week as I would have liked so I may end up working a bit this weekend, which is something I try to avoid. Have a good weekend, everyone.

Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 
)
Funny seeing this Ta-Nehisi Coates quote today, I'd been feeling and thinking this all week. Like the obvious contradictions of playing a central role in a genocide while also demanding votes.
It feels so on brand for Dems who feared the rise of Progressives like Bernie Sanders more than Trump to today demand our democracy be respected while STILL being totally ok with an active genocide.
Dems are finally in the streets, largely to protect capitalism.
Reminder that if you're going to protest tomorrow, turn off your fucking phone (or leave it at home).
Anyone can break up a showing of an enemy propaganda film by putting two or three dozen large moths in a paper bag. Take the bag to the movies with you, put it on the floor in an empty section of the theater as you go in and leave it open. The moths will fly out and climb into the projector beam, so that the film will be obscured by fluttering shadows.
40 years ago this week, "One More Night" by #PhilCollins reached the top spot, replacing "Can't Fight This Feeling" by #REOSpeedwagon after 3 weeks. This video is shot in the same bar and takes place after the video for "Sussudio", which climbed the charts a few months later. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKVq-P3z5Vg #1980s #MusicHistory #MusicVideo
