I did it...




Ok, almost. Tonight I gave my final lecture in the condensed course I am taking (as a grad student taking part in an undergrad class). I gave a lecture that was mostly on heterosexual privilege & language, and it was well received. Now I only have to mark another 30 short papers, and write a paper myself, and then I am done for the summer, just working rather than doing the work/school balance. Who knows-- maybe I will even have time for blogging again...

Stop here, read this, totally worth it, I promise

Listen to this podcast, starting from 29:00, Act 2, Tom Girls (buy or stream, if you stream it will start from an intro that is about a minute, then into the hour-long program)

It blows my mind.
