It’s mah birthday! Nothing major going on today as it’s a Monday and I have to work. Fun birthday stuff this upcoming weekend! It was actually a good day. Some of the kids in my first block class, Biology, sang me Happy Birthday. They’re 10th grade and part of that rowdy bunch of 9th graders […]
Remember when female rappers wrote intelligent, insightful lyrics? Or even just fun, party, happy lyrics? Now pretty much it’s all about being a whore.

As I talk with other women in peri-menopause, menopause, or even post-menopause I’m hearing a lot of angst about how our bodies are changing and all the negativity that comes with no longer being of reproductive age.

It is INSANE to say or believe that talking about this and trying to change this means you hate trans […]
Margarita Satini was a civil activist for Utah’s Pacific Islander community. She passed away from Covid-19. May she rest in peace, and may her activism inspire us all. The world requires us to be civically engaged, indeed. I keep drilling this into my students’ heads. You need to learn to think critically. THAT is why […]
This is my creative process in a nutshell.
Logan’s Run is a movie that came out when I was a wee girl, probably preschool or kindergarten, and I must have seen it dozens of times since. Tell me why I just now noticed homegirl was running around in SOCKS the whole movie?! Even when they’re in the delinquents area and had to walk/run […]
