@maxleibman uggh and try being a pre-menopausal age woman. You get all that toxic positivity PLUS various suggestions implying your feelings are probably PMS and will self-resolve within a few days anyway, so just weather your “bad mood” with some “self-care” and chocolate, gaslight any of your unhappy thoughts so you don’t bring anyone down or irrationally take it out on anyone, and before ya know it you’ll bounce back and realize you were making a big deal out of nothing!

If you have a parrot and you don’t teach it to say, “help I’ve been turned into a parrot” you’re wasting everyone’s time.

Over 9.7 million people using Mastodon now. It is hosted on over 22,000 servers, but like with email, everyone can communicate with everyone else.
Since no one person or company owns those servers, no one person or company can buy them or break them. #Mastodon #TwitterMigration

My husband was given a bird feeder with camera for his birthday recently and it's proving very delightful...
@mem_somerville now to bring back the American chestnut.
Anti trans laws
You don’t have to be a trans ally to recognize how horrible a state-forced transition would be. Imagine how horrified you would feel if your body now were slowly changing into the wrong gender from being pumped full of the wrong chemicals, and you were forbidden to do anything to stop it. Doctors that could help you turn away.
Would it help any to know that your own glands were the source of the chemicals? I can’t imagine that would make me feel one bit better!

I watched the youtube clip where Scott Adams did his racist star turn, and another where he "explained" himself.
It seemed clear that he knew he would lose the strip. He was quite deliberate about it.
More like a career move than an outburst. Planned cancelling.
Not the quiet part said out loud, but the loud part delivered quitely and calmly.

@ReginaldOhLaw the premise of this study is that the cookies are of course unrelated to how the teachers should be evaluated, and thus distort the results. However the awkwardly passive description in the abstract doesn’t tell us whether the students knew the teacher had nothing to do with the cookies. If I thought my teacher was thoughtfully providing said cookies (or yes, pizza) for us, I would consider that *highly relevant* to several dimensions of teacher rating.
