@drdre4000 This was from one of my students last year and it still ranks as one of the best emails I've ever received.

Shame on you if you’re still using Spotify. If you want to listen to a song you buy the sheet music, get your boys together, and sing it a capella.

I don’t know a single person in their twenties that wasn’t profoundly impacted by Holes (2003)

@realDonaldTrump My brother voted in Chandler, Arizona and was given a sharpie and has proof of his vote. Today he was notified that his vote did not register. He is willing to give sworn testimony

#CircleConfessions my dancing on valentines day made someone ask @kevmancrockett and @realbuffalobill if I was mentally challenged

@NY1 #OneNY unemployment stats are wrong, been trying all week and it’s impossible to get through. Assistance is needed

Me writing this term paper for #ENL4210 & making tooo many GoT references bc I’m so excited for tn #WinterisComing

[marinacregan @creganfau]

I wonder if there’s some sort of negative reason for why the Princess’ spells are made using Hebrew words when they’re all Muslim and not Jewish #ENL4210 #PorterAndThreeGirls

[marinacregan @creganfau]

My reaction when the girls referred to the girl slaves as “black bitches” this story took a turn realllll quick #ENL4210

[marinacregan @creganfau]

@AminiFau He tries to come off like he’s protecting them, but he’s just using them to his advantage!

[marinacregan @creganfau]

Once the porter says the 3 girls need “a man of discretion who can be trusted with secrets”, I immediately know this man cannot be trusted #Porter #ENL4210

[marinacregan @creganfau]

Reading #Chaucer #MansTale just screams misogyny, it hurts!! Suggesting the serpent hidden in the form of a woman, suggesting that all women are deceiving

[marinacregan @creganfau]

Clearly written for a Christian audience, “women are born to bondage, suffering to live beneath the dominance of men” I wonder if that’s suggesting that the religion the syrian’s worshipped isn’t true bc her fate is ultimate suffering being with the Syrian kin #Chaucer #ENL4210

[marinacregan @creganfau]

It’s interesting that the author describes how wise and great these merchants are, yet says “the death of every man; no doubt of it”- meaning the only thing that can bring a man down is his love for a woman, which I think gives woman all the power essentially #ENL4210

[marinacregan @creganfau]

Instead of outright condemning, Christine utilized Solomon’s statement from the Bible to show that the misdeed of Judas was better off bc it allowed us to have Christ save us in the end- this shows her intellect in a way that’s not hysterical or “emotional” #ENL4210

[marinacregan @creganfau]

Saying a woman’s opinion isn’t worthy bc they’re “emotional by nature” was the dumbest excuse anyone could’ve used #ENL4210 #GoChristine #GirlPower

[marinacregan @creganfau]

Christine de Pizan didn’t hold back whatsoever- “don’t deliberately allow your keen mind to be clouded and narrow in its views” at a time when females were essentially men’s property, she didn’t care to curse at someone so high up in the court #ENL4210

[marinacregan @creganfau]

“I eat the bread of this world and do the work of that” Rabe’a was sent to earth to help humanity and teach them how to live by God- interesting to place her in the same position as a savior, or Jesus #ENL4210

[marinacregan @creganfau]

Rabe’a traveling to Mecca in “destitution” is similar to other readings bc anyone that’s gone seeking God has endured so much suffering/pain, but she continues her journey bc her faith is stronger than her suffering #ENL4210
