Happy Fourth of July! At least for my readers who live in the US. The rest of you can have a happy day as well, but yours will probably involve fewer fireworks. Anyway, no misogyny today. Instead, here’s a kitten making its own fireworks with the help of an iPad. Consider this an open thread.

Misogyny. I mock it.
I find a lot of it in what's called the "manosphere," a loose collection of Men's Rights, Men Going Their Own Way (MGTOW), and Pickup Artist (PUA) sites. That said, there are numerous posts here that don't have anything to do with MRAs, or PUAs or any of their ilk.

I have dreams about administering them.
I luckily have never had the finals nightmare, luckily. Though I do get really worried I’m going to miss administering them (especially at 8 am. Blerg). Can’t remember if that’s shown up in a dream, though.
And everyone should just pretend one of those ‘luckily’s isn’t there. Speaking of dreaming, sleep calls…
Nobby: The final exams I had to administer were one-on-one practical exercises.
People’s careers, and (though it sounds hyberbolic, and melodramatic) lives were on the line.
Careers, because if they failed, they weren’t going to become interrogators.
Lives, because if they passed, they were going to become interrogators.
I don’t think I ever made the wrong call on an edge case, but man… did we talk about how to grade those exercises.
Thanks Pecunium! Doctress is here, too, but I think she’s a pretty busy lady. I’m also planning on just sort of doing a lot more running and yoga and so forth to pass the time. Tried and true method for un-boredom and getting into good shape whenever a boyfriend leaves- and they always seem to for me. I’m also gonna plan a trip back home to Chicago and the surrounding area to visit friends I haven’t seen since I moved back in March. Maybe even a trip back to my podunk little hometown to see some extended family. I’m not sure yet though, he only left yesterday.
@Pecunium Oy, yeah. I’m, at worst, responsible for a small part of a person’s med school chances >.<.
