Oh! Tonight's funniest line from Family Dinner: Who knows how we got there, but my grandmother says something like, "I used to have a gay man come to the house..." My mother says, "Besides your uncle???" Hee. Uncle Albert was a Confirmed Bachelor, but apparently actually brought a guy to my mother's cousin's wedding. (My grandmother was referring to a home health aide, I'm pretty sure.)

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Anybody read Polish? I've got a paragraph that I want to translate, and it's a scanned document, not text, so I can't just copy and paste into Google Translate.

[student name], reading the whole of your Bluest Eye essay, I can see the gist of your argument--that the racial aspect of beauty standards in Pecola's community are impossible for her to attain--but you haven't yet given me the "so what" in your thesis. Remember the prompt, which asks you to articulate how these standards deform personal identity, as you revisit your thesis and body paragraphs. Your syntax and diction made it difficult for me to follow your reasoning; if you choose to revise, eliminate passive voice and wordiness. This draft has potential--it just needs to be clarified. Revision is optional; all revisions are due by Monday, 4/30. Points Earned: 40/50
Yep, I’ve been grading papers today.
