Gay cubs making out with the tutor part 2
50 Essential LGBTQ Movies
It’s grainy, faded, and, given the clip is now 125 years old, more than a little worse for wear. But this terse footage is not so ancient that you can’t clearly make out two men, waltzing together, as a third man plays a violin in the background. It was an experimental short made by William Dickson, designed to test syncing up moving pictures to prerecorded sound, a system that he and Thomas Edison were developing known as the Kinetophone. It’s known as “The Dickson Experimental Sound Film,” and dates advocate to 1895, the identical year movies were born. While there’s nothing to outright suggest that these men were romantically committed or attracted to each other during the roughly 20-second length of their pas de deux, there is nothing that contradicts that notion either. It’s considered by many to be one of the first examples of homosexual imagery in film, and a reminder that lgbtq+ representation has been with the medium from the very beginning.
That clip appears in The Celluloid Closet, Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman’s documentary based on Vito Russo’s study of homosexuality in the movies, along with
Master and student go to war in ‘The Tutor’
Anyone who argues that Superman should never be politicized clearly knows nothing about Superman.
The “Man of Steel” has been a flashpoint for controversy almost from the beginning, when he was created by scribe Jerry Siegel and designer Joe Shuster – two Jewish Americans born of immigrant parents, who conceived the character in a world where the economic disparities of the Fantastic Depression, the rise of global fascism, and the threat of impending war were looming large across American life. Theirs was a hero for the time, who used his strength to help the weak instead of to subjugate them, who stood up against the forces of greed, corruption, and insatiable power to prioritize human life above all other considerations. Is it any wonder that his values would become objectionable to conservatives when the moral complacency of postwar prosperity kicked in? In the hawkish American ideology that dominated the Chilly War era, such notions became inconvenient.
To be just, there has been liberal backlash against the traits, too; Superman has often been framed as an icon of American “exceptionalism” that served as a jingoistic mask for the de
[G] Guide to yuri part 2
Blasterion's Guide to Yuri
Yuri is.....according to wikipedia.....
Yuri (百合?), also known by the wasei-eigo construction Girls' Love (ガールズラブ gāruzu rabu?),[3] is a Japanese jargon term for content and a genre involving love between women in manga, anime, and related Japanese media.[4][5] Yuri can focus either on the sexual, the spiritual, or the emotional aspects of the relationship, the latter two sometimes creature called shōjo-ai by western fans.[6]
Foreigners call this Lesbianism.
Why Watch Yuri?
Yuri is fine because it is alternative from regular drama and relationships we see. Something that goes against the norms is enjoyable.
Also watching 2 girls go at it is never a bad thing
Sometimes it's difficult to point out pleasant things in yuri so let's evaluate a limited good yuri series.

There are several pairings of yuri in Strawberry Panic. And most of the time when I propose someone a gate to yuri anime I praise this piece.

“Trivium: Latin for “three roads” refers to the three stages of learning: grammar, dialectic and rhetoric”
CCEMA
The idea of ‘trivium’ first struck a cord with me after reading this blog from Tom Sherrington. In the article Tom explores the book “Trivium 21c: Preparing juvenile people for the future with lessons from the past” by Martin Robinson.
I was not in a position to implement these ideas across a whole school however I was keen to see how I could embed the ideas of Grammar, Dialectic & Rhetoric into my instruction to raise achievement in my lessons. I was and am still also conscious it should be a proficiency set that is cross curricular and so as Leader of Year I inserted these ideas in my tutor time, in what I named so aptly tutor period challenges.
The vision of these challenges that I have sold to tutors and the year organization is that – this is your chance to study stuff that isn’t always on the curriculum but could win you a fair amount on a quiz display like ‘who wants to be a millionaire. Of course, there is so much more to it than that. I have initiate it is a brilliant opportunity of students to investigate learning (work out which methods of learning really wo
Adams House Senior Tutor Viggiani dies:
Janet A. Viggiani, the beloved senior tutor of Adams Dwelling from 1989 to 1993, died Nov. 8 of breast cancer. She was 48.
“We all – staff, students, and tutors – loved Janet for her goodness and her gusto, and we all respected her for her assessment and moral clarity,” said Robert Kiely, Loker Professor of English, Harvard College Professor, and former house master of Adams House.
“Janet was one of the most generous, delightful, warm, compassionate, intelligent people I’ve ever had the nice fortune to know,” said Victoria Macy, assistant to the masters at Adams House. “A not heavy has gone out of a nature which can ill afford such a loss.”
Viggiani fought cancer for over a decade, while building a career and making lasting friendships. Even after her diagnosis, she continued to advise Adams House students, lying flat on her back in her office while convalescing from surgery. She was nicknamed the “dancing dean,” for her love of dancing and frequent appearances at Adams House parties and Boston clubs.
Otto Coontz, assistant to the Adams House senior tutor, noted Viggiani’s remarkable ability to connect with people. “She never forgot the v
