We think about Mutsuko Erskine's Yuki episode at least once a week. The colors, the plot, the acting is chef's kiss 🤌🏾 Do yourself a favor and watch S2, E11 of @pen15show 👌🏾

feminist rec week 15:

pen15: This comedy series depicts middle school as it really happened. Comics Maya Erskine and Anna Konkle play versions of themselves as teenage outcasts in the year 2000, during a time when the best day of your life can turn into the worst with the stroke of a gel pen. Adult Maya and Anna -- as their younger selves -- are surrounded by actual teenagers as they re-experience some of the ups and downs of middle school life. They get a lot of unexpected attention on the first day of school and later face the temptation to do drugs. (google)

i binge watched this show recently and it perfectly depicts the horrible and awkward experience of being a weird loner girl in middle school.

-the complexity of gr 12 english

❝should grade 12 university-level english be a requirement for entry into all university programs?❞

from kindergarten ABCs, middle school short stories, to painfully long high school books and narrative essays. fun, it's so much fun.

all these years we’ve taken english, why should it be mandatory for university?

one of the most disliked subjects around the world, but something i’ve always excelled in. english as a subject helps us to further interpret the meaning of things (words, sentences), along with broadening our vocabulary; these two examples help us to understand entirely. with deeper thoughts thus being provoked from repetitive pieces we read, or contributing to conversation, we are made to be cognizant of the world around us.

for the most part, we can all agree that it would seem as if we wouldn't need english at all for some things in university. if you were to become an accountant and all you need to know is math, why is english the main requirement? we think that the learning skills and strategies learned in the english classroom are not relevant to all paths, but they are used to help attain your career aspirations in the end.

analyzing, summarizing, composing, communicating, reading, retaining; these are all skills strengthened in the english classroom that end up following to post-secondary. english should be mandatory because of how valuable it is. we carry these newly reinforced skills onto our careers and to the workplace, it's an opportunity that some never get to have and high school makes us take advantage of.

to learn english is to communicate, and to communicate is to be successful.

Pen15 coming in here with season 2 and just ripping my fucking heart out wow

[nickmilleresque]

You run away from conflict all your life and then one day you’re watching tv shows on the little preview that pops up when you hover over the taskbar...

How did it get so bad? What the fuck? It shouldn’t be this hard to watch pen15.

Finally watching season 2 of Pen15 and they continue to absolutely pummel me with middle school trauma.
