I was really hoping these weren’t staged and the artist just spends weeks in art galleries and days in front of paintings to make these

Well guess what… That’s exactly what he did!

Tiny Hedgehog Goes Camping, And His Pics Are The Best Thing You’ll See Today

being in your youth can be so agonizing like the world is burning and the US is doing god knows what and one million other terrible things are happening and you’re so overworked and exhausted that all you can do is buy your groceries with reusable bags and skim headlines knowing vaguely that they’re prophecies of terror and feel ashamed you don’t know more than you do but your mental health is already so bad you just have to take your 10 minutes off to try to scrape together some meaning and peace as it all starts to crumble around you and yet here in your home on your laptop you still have deadlines and the streets outside are quiet and you can’t breathe

One time my rabbi told us, “imagine you had a box with a little bit of god in it. What would you do with the box?”

So we were like ?? “We’d protect it and keep it nice and clean and polished” and he was like “your body’s that box. Stop eating markers”

Because treating people fairly often means treating them differently.

This is something that I teach my students during the first week of school and they understand it. Eight year olds can understand this and all it costs is a box of band-aids.

I have each students pretend they got hurt and need a band-aid. Children love band-aids. I ask the first one where they are hurt. If he says his finger, I put the band-aid on his finger. Then I ask the second one where they are hurt. No matter what that child says, I put the band-aid on their finger exactly like the first child. I keep doing that through the whole class. No matter where they say their pretend injury is, I do the same thing I did with the first one.

After they all have band-aids in the same spot, I ask if that actually helped any of them other than the first child. I say, “Well, I helped all of you the same! You all have one band-aid!” And they’ll try to get me to understand that they were hurt somewhere else. I act like I’m just now understanding it. Then I explain, “There might be moments this year where some of you get different things because you need them differently, just like you needed a band-aid in a different spot.” 

If at any time any of my students ask why one student has a different assignment, or gets taken out of the class for a subject, or gets another teacher to come in and help them throughout the year, I remind my students of the band-aids they got at the start of the school year and they stop complaining. That’s why eight year olds can understand equity.

I remember reading somewhere once “we should be speaking of equity instead of equality” and that is a principle that applies here me thinks

Any cis person who doesn’t want to respect someone’s pronouns gets called whatever pronouns I’m in the mood for.

Ever called a cis guy “she” and “ma’am” for a week? I have. I called him “Sue” too, and I made a “Have you met Sue?” meme out of him and put it up where all our mutual acquaintances could see it.

I highly recommend it.

The Ultimate Guide to Flying with TPN Series Part 2: How to Pack.

Hi-dee-ho! Welcome to part 2 of the Ultimate Guide to Flying with TPN series. Today’s post is all about how I pack my Total Parenteral Nutrition for air travel.

PACKING TPN

I use 2 carry-on size suitcases when I travel with TPN. One holds all of my medical supplies and the other is where I pack my TPN. If you’re on TPN I’m sure you know how heavy it can get when you’re trying to move several bags and ice packs at once. It’s friken heavy so a suitcase on wheels is a must for me. A rolling cooler is another option. 

As long as your luggage fits in the overhead compartment of the airplane you can bring it on board at no extra charge and it will not count toward your carry-on limit. I prefer to take it onto the plane myself instead of checking it with the potential of loss or damage.

i think the crux of human misery stems from the fact that our skeleton just wants to sit around and accumulate dust in an ancient barrow (that is the innate imperative of all skeletal remains in-case you didn’t know) but our meat has its own agenda which creates this fundamental conflict of interests

Fieldwork: Not just a geology holiday

As a geologist I often come across people who think my fieldwork is just an excuse to go relax in the sun while looking at the occasional rock. I can understand the confusion, why fly out to a different continent to study rocks when the department is already full of samples?
