@heymrsbond @ShakerWC @S_Matrose The Writing Center at my alma mater quite literally changed the course of my life—I am an English teacher now and the inherently democratic model of it informs my current practice. So much potential at the secondary level.

ok it’s time for one of my pcos rants. sometimes i’m just looking for content online for some solidarity but 90% of pcos content is selling a diet or supplement to “reverse” it. pls make it stop

[madison🌈 @mralbr]

@visceralscenery listen i have no information to offer up but as someone living with pcos… i’m sorry you’re dealing with this and i hope you find a doctor who takes your pain and concerns seriously.💖

@_Emaconda i am!!! who knew i’d be the best version of myself when i can try new things in a low stakes environment?? maybe the grind isn’t actually all that healthy?!!!

[madison🌈 @mralbr]

i was so nervous about finishing grad school. what would be next? turns out it’s time to try new things. i took a ceramics class, and now i’m a community member in a local community college’s chorus. what an interesting new chapter of my life!

[madison🌈 @mralbr]

ok i submitted my research to complete my master’s degree tonight. what’s next?? maybe i’ll do something wild and go get like, a literacy or sped cert. idk how to not be a student!!!

english teachers will have you read stuff like "the lottery" and "all summer in a day" and "a rose for emily" and then they just send you on your way, changed

i thought my pcos diagnosis would be helpful (bc i worry about fertility issues, the higher risk of endometrial cancer, etc) but trying out different medications to manage my symptoms has been hellish🙃
