I teach (my children and university students), I write, and sometimes I sleep. It's a full life.

@NicoleJGeorges Today is the day I introduce your memoir to my comics class, which is filled with future vets and vet nurses. It's a class favorite every semester!

[Marybeth Ragsdale-Richards @MBethRicha]

@WilsonCollegePA Thanks!

[Marybeth Ragsdale-Richards @MBethRicha]

It's finally official! This one us for me and Holly.

@amykurzweil @NewYorker @nyercartoons Amy, I've been teaching Flying Couch for the last year in 2 of my classes.Thank you for using your art to tell pieces of Bubbe's story. I wish I could draw to bring my sister back to my eyes as you have done for Lilly. The women in your family inspire me.

Happy #InternationalWomensDay Seize the brush!

Dear world, saying to a young-ish woman "you look too young to be a professor" is not the compliment you think it is. It's a reminder that the world (and sometimes my colleagues) doesn't think I fit in and takes my scholarship less seriously because of my gender and age

Lilly decided to grab a flag from Medieval Times and jam to Taylor Swift's Reputation concert on Netflix. She just wants to know where the snap chat kitties went! Lol.

How do concerns about shoring up borders and national security rely on gendered ideologies? How do feminists respond to xenophobic, anti-immigrant rhetoric and policies? Our virtual issue collects five articles that explore these questions: https://t.co/qK50x2J09H

[Joe Kennedy III @joekennedy]

He has lied about who’s paying for it. You are.

He has lied about who’s arriving at our border. Asylum seekers & terrified families.

He has lied about who supports it. No former presidents.

He has lied about why we need it. We don’t.

Tonight will be no different.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

The President defended Neo-Nazis who murdered a woman in Charlottesville.

The Dept of Justice sued him for not renting to Black tenants.

He launched his campaign by calling Mexicans “rapists.”

He banned Muslims.

The President is racist. And that should make you uncomfortable.

@SadieSharks I love that she owned the term radical and put up with Cooper in the first place.

[Marybeth Ragsdale-Richards @MBethRicha]

@SadieSharks The girls and I asked ourselves the same question!

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Republican hypocrisy at its finest: saying that Trump admitting to sexual assault on tape is just “locker room talk,” but scandalizing themselves into faux-outrage when my sis says a curse word in a bar.

GOP lost entitlement to policing women’s behavior a long time ago.

Next.

WATCH: “I now call the House to order on behalf of all America’s children,” Speaker Pelosi says after taking the oath of office with her grandchildren and other children in the chamber by her side. https://t.co/jJrc24xN5x

Fancy that the knowing children are meeting our gaze. . . or are they gazing at the monstrous feminine thing in the shape of a V at the bottom of the frame?

@Emilferrisdraws @ChulaVistaLib I just added MFTIM to my syllabus as one of the graphics novels I'll be teaching in a few weeks! I teach an English course on comics as a way for students to explore issues of social justice in their writing. I can't wait to see/read what they make of Karen's story.
