I wish I could be one of the slim, hairy gay guys.

I find them attractive. I don't like the way I look. I am trying to lose weight so I can have a small body fat percentage. Is it OK for me to hate how I look until I am able to be thin?

Things that misled you from watching Arthur?

I mean, things that you thought were true based on watching Arthur that you learned were not true?

I used to think that to scare off a bear, you should do the Hokey Pokey.

I also used to think it was common for kids to meet up after school at a hangout place like the Sugar Bowl.

Chess game from Donald in Mathmagic Land

When I was little I watched a film called Donald in Mathmagic Land, which is about math. There's a chess game in it and I finally watched the game in slow motion and played all the moves. Here is the chess game from Donald in Mathmagic Land

Have any ICE agents been on your campus?

I got this e-mail:

On Saturday, June 13, masked ICE agents drove into a parking lot on our campus and pulled a student from a vehicle as the student waited to take part in a college class activity. The agents were asked by the person in charge of the college activity to show their names, badges, and warrant. They provided none of that information and drove off college property with the apprehended student. The person in charge of the college activity alerted our security team, who followed the protocols we have developed in cooperation with the State Attorney General’s Office, which forbids any state agency from providing assistance to federal immigration agents. Complicating this, however, is the fact that federal agents do not normally notify anyone before arriving, and in this instance, did not comply with demands to produce identification and a warrant.

I think having a PhD is a drawback when applying to full-time positions at community colleges

My sense is that PhD's have to have a higher salary and community colleges don't want to have to pay more than they have to because of budget constraints. So if they can hire someone at a lower pay, they will. Is this correct?

There's nothing you can do

A woman chatting with someone at a cafe by a community college

"One of the students in the ELA program passed away. It's really sad, but there's nothing you can do. When I was working with recovery, downtown, you knew that for some students, they were either going to die or were going to get arrested. And there's just nothing you can do... I try to solve my problems with food. It doesn't help, but it doesn't hurt either."

Later she's talking about pets "We have a ferret. Ferrets don't get dander, and that's why some people get ferrets, but they're a pain in the ass."

"She falls in love with a bee."

Overheard at a boba shop

"I was watching this movie with my daughter. There's a woman and she falls in love with a bee."

"A bee?"

"Yeah. It was so weird. And the woman's already in a relationship and the guy she's with is trying to kill the bee! And he's like, why are you falling in love with a bee? When I was a kid it wouldn't have seemed weird to me. But now as an adult watching it, it's soooo weird."
