“It is a curious thing, the death of a loved one. We all know that our time in this world is limited, and that eventually all of us will end up underneath some sheet, never to wake up. And yet it is always a surprise when it happens to someone we know. It is like walking up the stairs to your bedroom in the dark, and thinking there is one more stair than there is. Your foot falls down, through the air, and there is a sickly moment of dark surprise as you try and readjust the way you thought of things.” ― Lemony Snicket, Horseradish: Bitter Truths You Can't Avoid

Why are you booing? She's right!

Update: turns out the "berating" was apart of the previously agreed upon lesson plan revolving around role playing debate skills (he had 7 uninterrupted minutes of speech, this was in the question and answer portion, most college students could tell you is normal) that the student knew about before hand.

Ellis then took this completely out of context clip and ran to Conservative Grievance Circlejerk Media (Daily Caller, NY Post, Daily Mail, ect) to slander this professor to the point that she and her coworkers are now receiving death threats from unhinged reactionaries.

Also Ellis is known for making white supremacist gestures and harassing racial and sexual minority students on campus

In conclusion, if you sided with this kid over what was (if you watched the video) a perfectly normal debate exchange with a professor, then you might have some self-examination to take part in.

Her name is Katalin Karikó. Hungarian. Daughter of a butcher. Her thesis work became the basis of the mRNA vaccine technology. Read the article here.

My favorite bits from the article include how Dr. Kariko celebrated the fact that the vaccines that used her mRNA research worked

“On Nov. 8, the first results of the Pfizer-BioNTech study came in, showing that the mRNA vaccine offered powerful immunity to the new virus. Dr. Kariko turned to her husband. “Oh, it works,” she said. “I thought so.”

To celebrate, she ate an entire box of Goobers chocolate-covered peanuts. By herself.”

I have exactly 4 opinions on perfume, who wants to hear them

thank you ❤️

perfume is gender neutral

more perfume should smell like flowers and citrus and fun crap like that. also more novelty scents. if I want to smell like a freshly opened can of Play-Doh that’s my business.

people need to be careful not to wear too much, especially in classrooms & workplaces & on public transport. it’s an allergy issue.

perfume bottles should ridiculously, absurdly, ludicrously ornate again. if it doesn’t glow in the dark or at least have filigree & one those squeezy things, it shouldn’t be legally marketed as a luxury item
