This is an example of what I call "adaptive cultural capital." Institutions don't just demand that low-income students have the same (dominant) cultural capital as rich kids - they demand more. Bourdieu made this point in passing but he didn't name it so I did 🙃

Low-income students having to excel in order to get financial aid while rich kids can just bulshit their way through school is a good example of why meritocracy isn't real.

@samwightt The pedestrian isn't causing car traffic, people choosing to drive cars are 😉

My dissertation is actually just "teenagers are real human beings with real lives to live," but frustrangily my committee members want more words than that 🤷🏼‍♀️

I get how scholars work-gotta use fancy terms. Still I'm going to do a Mills on Parsons on some of the pedagogical pieces I'm seeing. It can be summed up as "don't be an a--hole to your students" or "they're real human beings with real lives to live." There you go word count -99%

I've only been in Lisbon for ~10 hours and I'm already having a hard time picking my top 4 favorite shots that emphasize non-car transit infrastructure. To start: bus w dedicated lane, protected ped area (lots of these!), protected bike lane, streetcar.

What happens when "gender bender day" and a mass shooter drill coincide? Girls in baggy pants, oversized shirts, and baseball caps perform masculinity by stacking desks to barricade the door while talking in deep voices and showing off their "facial hair." HS fieldwork is wild.

& Surprising no one, he was wrong. Anyway, this man *intentionally sped towards me in a crosswalk* to punish me for looking at my phone while crossing (what had been) a clear intersection. Cars make people act horribly. Fuck this.

All the greatest hits of "factually incorrect anti-bike rhetoric" packed into one tweet! Impressive levels of ignorance here...but then again, what else could be expected from a TERF? 🤷‍♀️

@45thWardRats @WGNNews Why?No we shouldn’t. All it does is cause more traffic & congestion. Roads were built for cars not bikes. People can bike on bike paths. The radical bikers, a minority in this city, don’t have a right to inconvenience 90% of city so they can have their leisure activity.

Did my first bike race today, which was also my first-ever gravel ride! I came in second for women🥈 Granted, there were only two women competing 🙃 but I finished and I'm proud! 150k/93mi is no joke. I added a few miles on the end to make it a full century 💯💪🏼
