your heart is empty and you're so cold

So today my political science class discussed the redevelopment of the theocracy in Iran in the late 70s, and things that changed between the reigns of Shah I/II and the government that took its place when Shah II was ousted. It was... really awkward-not because of the content itself, but because my teacher got really weird about talking about ( Read more... )

Interesting topic, really weird teacher. Ironically I had gone over to my grandparents last night where me and my mom spent like two hours with family that had flown over from Iran ( ... )

The topic is fascinating, as is most of the class. It was weird because she didn't at all seem like the type of teacher who would shy away from talking about anything, at least before this incident... Huuuh.

I obviously have no issue with her having religious viewpoints, I just feel like... they should, like you said, be left at the door. Especially in a political science class, and especially when you're a teacher-since who knows who you might make uncomfortable?

LMAO I LOVE SPAM MUSUBI I was like whatever gurlfran. I love pop-tarts. I had some just now actually. Am I poor? No, they're just delicious.

SOBBING I was so surprised! I mean, I can't always recall them off the top of my head or write them without a reference, but I can usually identify and pronounce them if I see them written.

I don't have any issue with differing religious viewpoints or whatever, it just seems like something that... she should leave at the door, both because she's teaching political science and because it's totally possible that she might make someone uncomfortable.

Well, on the one hand evidently she was poor growing up, but on the other hand... what a totally inappropriate thing to say????
