How Do I Talk to My Students and Co-Workers About Trump?

"I'm a middle school teacher in a suburban, mostly white area. I am "out" on a need-to-know basis, but everyone is very supportive and accepting. Everything that has been going on politically since the election has had a profound effect on me personally, and I have been struggling with how, or if I should even try, to talk about this stuff with co-workers and students. Any ideas on an appropriate way to bring it up?"

Question Submitted Anonymously Answered by Sara Kost

Sara Says:

Hello, fellow teacher.

Thank you for your question! I completely understand and share the same feelings around how this election and the resulting current Administration has affected us as queer teachers. I know for me personally, I’m lucky to have found comfort and solidarity with colleagues at work. I’ve also found a place to detach from the emotional stress of the news and just be in the moment with my students.

Many people in the education profession are feeling frustrated, sad, and fearful every time a new news report comes out. With the confirmation of Betsy DeVos as Secretary of Education (*shudders*), the rollback of protections for trans+ students, and the overall political climate as of late, we educators have a lot to be stressed about. We want to advocate for ourselves, our profession, and our students. We want to scream from the roof of our schools about how important free, public education really is to our country and our society. But most of all, we want to share our thoughts and feelings with our co-workers and students.

Talking with co-workers and talking with students are two very different situations, so let’s tackle co-workers first. Depending on how friendly you are with your co-workers, there have probably been times where you’ve had the opportunity to talk with them about a wide variety of topics. Lunchtime conversation topics in the teacher’s lounge may vary from personal life, to students, to curriculum, to current events and politics, to cool deals at Target, and more! Whenever current events and politics come up, you can absolutely add your opinion to the conversation. Of course, time and place matter. Talking politics while on hallway duty or bus duty or during a team meeting might not be the best time. Before school, after school, or during lunch when students aren’t around would be appropriate times to chat with co-workers about the state of our union.

You may find that your co-workers have differing opinions from you, or you may find that you share similar values. Respect your co-workers differing opinions, while challenging racism, sexism, homophobia, and overt falsehoods. One easy way to do this is by asking where your co-workers are getting their information from. Fact checking and exposing fake news is easy to do, and it’s one way to remind your co-workers that, as teachers, we need to be able to think critically about the news we are getting. Of course it’s important to teach students how to fact check, but it’s just as important for adults to do the same!

Additionally, you can steer your conversation topics to how current events have affected your students, students’ families, and their community, which may feel more relevant than broader election topics. You can ask how the election has affected your co-workers and their families, and you can also bring up how the election has affected you personally as a queer person. As we found out during the fight for same-sex marriage, knowing someone who is gay or lesbian affects how people view LGBT issues and, in turn, can affect how people vote. The more out, open, and honest we can be with our families and friends, the more likely they are to think about us when they go vote. Making that connection between their own lives and our lives is important because it humanizes us.

In addition, have you thought about checking in with your union or becoming a union steward for your building? Public education is a target of the current Administration; Rallying your co-workers around cuts to Education, either federally or in your state, is a good way to build coalition and community around resistance. Find like-minded staff in your building, and plan a time to meet up after school to write or call your representatives. Your resistance can and should be multidimensional and intersectional, and focusing on Education issues as well as LGBTQ+ issues is a great way to validate two very important parts of your identity.

As far as bringing up current political events with your students, there are a few things to consider. First, did your District or Admin provide any guidelines from which to work? For example, my District and Admin team sent out a few different emails right after the election with guidelines and tips to have these tough conversations with students. See if there’s a framework or any considerations your superiors have laid out for you first. Tread carefully: politics in the classroom can get and has gotten teachers in trouble.

With that in mind, some small ways you can show your support for your students might be to wear a safety pin, a rainbow pin, or another small token as a non-verbal signal that you are a safe and supporting adult in the building. You could also put up a safe space sticker or poster in your classroom, put up posters of diverse important people for your subject area, or make a poster with any number of supportive quotes that are going around social media right now, like #RESIST. I saw a quote from a teacher on the internet a while ago that started out “Dear Undocumented Students… Dear Black Students… Dear Muslim Students…” which I really liked.

You could also try to incorporate these topics into the curriculum! This may look different depending on what subject you teach. For example, current events in Social Studies are easy to fit in. Reading news articles, practicing non-fiction reading, and examining fallacy in arguments is good for English Language Arts. A Fine Arts class can examine forms of protest art. A Math class could look at the Elector count or the budget. There are ways to be creative and work these topics into your classroom, regardless of what subject you teach.

If your school permits it, you might also think about starting an after-school club for community service to turn your student’s post-election energy into action. The club doesn’t need to have a partisan lean to address important topics. Your students can design community service projects for local community problems, learn about community issues, and feel like they can change the world one small step at a time.

I believe the most important thing to help youth feel less frightened and more powerful is to encourage them to take action. As a community, LGBTQ+ people have been traumatized by the aftermath of the 2016 election, along with many other marginalized communities. Every day we reexperience some of that trauma anew with whatever recent screwed up thing is in the headlines now. It’s exhausting. Depending on the amount of energy you already spend in your daily life outside of school, it may feel good to spend some energy on your students, encouraging them to write letters to the editor, organizing an after-school community service/action club, or helping them find resources or information about participating in the political process at their age. Good luck!

Carrie: The Musical - Seattle - October 10, 2013 (SunsetBlvd79's master)

FORMAT:  VOB (with smalls) (SD)

NOTES: Beautiful HD capture of one of the Final Dress Rehearsals. Top notch production and thrilling performances from Alice, Keaton, and the whole cast! This is quite a unique capture since it was the first time the blood was dropped. Too many amazing things to point out here, don't miss this one!!! A+ Well filmed with a nice mix of close-ups and full stage shots and no obstructions. Based on the revised Off-Broadway version, and presented at the Balagan Theatre. Because this was recorded at the final run-through prior to opening night, there are a few “holds” as they worked out any kinks: * After “Evening Prayers” there is a hold to change all microphone batteries, resulting in most of the song being run a second time (the sound check was removed and put as a bonus at the end of act two). * During the scene where Carrie is getting ready for the prom a microphone made a "farting" noise and Alice grabbed her butt and said "sorry" which made the cast and tech crew laugh. 

Carrie: The Musical - Seattle - October 13, 2013 (Pro-Shot's master)

FORMAT:  MP4 (SD)

CAST: Keaton Whittaker (Carrie White), Alice Ripley (Margaret White), Larissa Schmitz (Sue Snell), Kody Bringman (Tommy Ross), Tessa Archer (Chris Hargensen), Andrew Brewer (Billy Nolan), Kendra Kassebaum (Lynn Gardner), Brian Lange (Mr. Stephens), Erin Herrick (Norma), Melissa Maricich (Frieda), Frederick Habreen (George), Riley Neldham (Freddy), Alexandria Henderson (Helen), Eli Wills (Stokes)

Carrie: The Musical - Stagedoor Manor - July 31, 1999

FORMAT:  MP4 (SD)

CAST: Julie Kleiner (Carrie White), Vivienne Cleary (Margaret White), Nina Sturtz (Miss Gardner), Kaily Smith (Chris), Erin Evers (Sue), Blair Late (Tommy)

NOTES: Another abridged version. Video suffers from gen loss but has cleaned up decently. Piano is the only instrument in the orchestra, and it drowns out some of the singers. This has been incorrectly labelled as an authorized production,which is incorrect - this was an unauthorized production (e.g., no rights were secured before the production), though Gore (and Cohen) were in the audience of this performance and chose not to sue Jeff Murphy and Stagedoor over copyright infringement, partly because Gore said he had always wanted to see the show done with actual teenagers (reported by Jeff Murphy, the director).

NOTES: Filmed professionally for the RSC archives on the third night of the performance (February 16, 1988). Shot from first row mezzanine center with no obstructions with audio taken directly from the soundboard. Mostly a full stage shots without zooms. This is usually incorrectly labelled as "Opening Night (February 13, 1988)", which is incorrect, as on opening night, Barbara Cook was almost decapitated right after the set changes from "Don't Waste The Moon", which not seen in this video (also verified by the person who copied this from the archives).

NOTES: Fun show with very imaginative staging, though I do wish they used more songs from (either) movie. The first 5 minutes of Act One has some wandering and blackouts, but after that it is a steady and unobstructed shot. Includes curtain call.

Chasing Rainbows - Paper Mill Playhouse - October, 2019 (StarCuffedJeans's master)

CAST: Karen Mason (Ma Lawlor), Stephen DeRosa (LB Mayer), Colin Hanlon (Roger Edens), Karen Mason (Kay Koverman), Ruby Rakos (Judy Garland), Lesli Margherita (Ethel Gumm), Max von Essen (Frank Gumm), Michael Wartella (Mickey Rooney)

NOTES: Great HD capture of this Judy Garland bio musical focusing on her early years, leading up to The Wizard of Oz, with a couple of fun tap numbers! Act One starts when Judy sings a version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow (same tune but with different lyrics). Act Two starts part way through the number right before they enter the MGM studio. Please do not post screenshots of this video on Twitter ever. Gifs on Tumblr are okay after the NFT date, but don't go linking things to actors and shows.

NOTES: Beautiful HD close-ups but some long drop-outs and quite a few obstructed scenes. The rake in the mezzanine at the Neil Simon kinda stinks and I'm pretty sure the ushers were playing flashlight tag with each other the entire show. but I began to care a lot less as the night went on Video is very Cher-centric...choreography in "Dark Lady" is captured beautifully, but for the rest of the show I was mostly focused on getting those Stephanie, Teal, and Micaela zooms. We start at the scene before "Half Breed" and when Stephanie tells everyone to stand up for the finale it's all over for my filming ability.

NOTES: The original Broadway cast filmed prior to moving to Broadway. Professionally filmed using multiple cameras for the Lincoln Center Theatre on Film and Tape (TOFT) archives. Newly surfaced video which is a HUGE improvement over the previous version which has been in circulation for a while. This is also complete and includes the opening announcement alerting the audience that the show is being filmed. Amazing quality, but still has a little generational loss. In black and white. The DVD has been enhanced with chapter stops for all of the musical numbers. This, along with the tapes of Crazy for You and Passion, is amongst the only three TOFT tapes that have been leaked.

NOTES: HD capture of the Australian company of this fantastic musical. Includes a video of a post-show Q&A with the cast in honour of the 18th anniversary of September 12. Shot from the back row of the dress circle, so a head blocks the centre at times but it’s shot around where possible. Most noticeable in the group numbers where a lot of the action is downstage. The first 4 minutes or so is mostly wandering shots as I was setting up my camera and evading ushers. A lot of great close-ups - Zoe’s “Me and the Sky” is a highlight.

Come From Away - Toronto - January 7, 2020 (The Musical Speakeasy's master)

FORMAT:  MP4 (HD)

CAST: Eliza-Jane Scott (Beverley/Annette & others), Jeff Madden (Kevin T./Garth & others), George Masswohl (Claude & others), Cory O’Brien (Oz & others), Cailin Stadnyk (u/s Janice & others), Ali Momen (Kevin J./Ali & others), Clint Butler (u/s Nick/Doug & others), Barbara Fulton (Diane & others), Kate Etienne (u/s Hannah & others), Lori Nancy Kalamanski (u/s Beulah & others), Kristen Peace (Bonnie & others), Kevin Vidal (Bob & others)

NOTES: As far as I know, the first ever video of the Toronto production! I had the entire show in VOB format ready to post but, unfortunately, I lost the USB it was on in the middle of an airport. Luckily I was able to salvage all but thirty minutes of the original footage, so all that's lost is part of the scene after "I Am Here" and a portion of "Somewhere In The Middle Of Nowhere". If you find a USB the size of a thumbnail around Pearson, it's a $5 reward! A flu passed around the cast that they were all just recovering from, and at one point you can see Bev take a tissue out of her pilot's jacket and blow her nose. It explains the large number of understudies on, particularly of interest is that of the role of Hannah being played by a Caucasian actress, which causes her absence for the bus scene and leads to a severely different dynamic I'd not seen the character played as before.

Alex Danvers

Sekundäres Geschlecht: Alpha

Endgame Partner: Maggie Sawyer

Kinder: Ruby Arias (Tochter von Samantha Arias, adoptiert) und Kathy Danvers-Sawyer (adoptiert)

Wissenswertes:

Kara ist ein Omega, also ist Alex ein Alpha. Sie war zwar niemals offiziell Karas Alpha, hat aber in vielerlei Hinsicht genau diese Funktion erfüllt, indem sie Kara immer beschützt hatte, koste es, was es wolle. Alex ist einer der umgänglicheren Alphas in meinem Verse, jemand, der von anderen Alphas lernt anstatt sich mit ihnen anzulegen um so irgendwann ein besserer Alpha zu werden und schließlich der Alpha und die Leiterin des DEO, was in meinem Verse allerdings um einige Jahre später passiert als im Canon. Wobei ich sagen muss, dass ich geschrieben habe, dass Alexs J’onns Nachfolgerin als Leiterin des DEO wird, bevor ich das Ende der 3. Staffel gesehen hatte.

Was ist mit Alexs Coming Out? Nun, das ist im Rahmen dieses Verse ein gewisses Problem, da es relativ normal ist Angehörige des gleichen primären Geschlechts zu daten. Deswegen ist die Geschichte dieser Alex Danvers eher die von jemanden, der selbst etwas an sich für falsch hält, was in der Gesellschaft niemanden wirklich scheren würde. Sie muss ihre eigenen Vorurteile überwinden um sich selbst zu akzeptieren und lernt, dass sie im Grunde nur am Frauen interessiert ist, was ungewöhnlich ist, aber nicht so ungewöhnlich wie sie zuvor dachte.

Was ist nun Alexs sexuelle Orientierung in diesem Verse? Das ist eine gute Frage und die Antwort lautet, dass Alex im Grunde genommen herausfindet, dass ihr Interesse nur Frauen gilt und zwar vornehmlich Beta-  und Omega-Frauen. Sie ging zuvor mit Beta-Männern aus (und vielleicht auch Omega-Männern). Alex ist aber dagegen Alphas zu daten. Sie ging einmal in der ihrer Jugend mit einem männlichen Alpha aus, was böse endete. Daher ist sie selbst überrascht und ein wenig unglücklich darüber, dass sie sich mit Sara Lance, einem anderen Alpha, auf Barrys Hochzeit einlässt. Letztlich bleibt es bei diesem einem Abenteuer, da Alex eben jemand ist, der es für keine gute Idee ist andere Alphas zu daten. Im Spin-Off “Stranded on Earth-X” hält sie ihre Beziehung zu Sara nur wegen der Umstände aufrecht (weil sie beide in einem feindlichen Universum gestrandet sind und sich aneinander klammern, weil sie sich vertraut sind).

Okay, aber was sollte alles andere in “Stranded on Earth-X”?! Tja, zuerst muss ich sagen, dass ich Alex nicht hasse, ich liebe Alex. Ich wollte Drama und das Drama kam beim Schreiben aus der Tatsache heraus, dass Alex eine falsche Entscheidung trifft, basierend auf Wissen, dass sie aus ihrem eigenen Universum bezieht. Während “Crisis on Earth-X” wird man das Gefühl nicht los, dass Alex logischerweise die Person ist, die am Wenigsten von der ganzen Alternativ-Universen-Sache versteht. Wie auch? Bis zur Hochzeit dachte sie vermutlich, dass Alternativuniversen bedeutet, dass dort andere Leute leben als in ihrem Universen und wusste nichts von Doppelgängern. Ich habe sie aber überleben lassen, ihre eine Beta-Partnerin gegeben und eine Art Pseudo-Happy-End verpasst, nur eines ohne das, was sie am Meisten im Leben wollte: Ein Leben ohne Kinder. Warum? Nicht weil ich der Meinung war, dass Alex für ihre Taten Strafe verdient hätte, sondern weil Alex dieser Meinung war. Sie ist einer dieser Menschen, die am Härtesten zu sich selbst sind. Aber vergesst nicht: Alex ist ein Alpha und Kara ihre Omega-Schwester, die sie ihr ganzes Leben lang zurück wollte. Alex wollte unbedingt weg von Erde-X um herauszufinden, was aus Kara geworden war. Was eine normale, wenn auch bedenkliche, Alpha-Reaktion ist.

Bulgarije.

Na een schudweggetje met enorme verkeersdrempels en hier en daar een resterend stuk asfalt, komen we bij de camping aan In Kromidovo. Nou ja, de achtertuin van John en Sara een Engels echtpaar. Er staan al wat Engelse campers en er is voor schaduw gezorgd met een op een frame gespannen groen gaas, hoog genoeg om er onder te kunnen staan met een camper.

Aan het eind van de straat is een mineraalbad. Een 25 meter zwembad met warm water. Om het bad heen staan bomen die voor schaduw zorgen over de tafels en stoelen. De uitbaatster van het bad met bar is een oude vrouw die ons om 17:30 uur wegstuurde de eerste dag. We gaan om 18:00 uur dicht zei ze kom morgen maar terug. De volgende dag zijn we er om 10 uur en we mogen de hele dag blijven voor €1.- p.p. Anna en Ivo zijn er ook. Onze Engelse buren op de camping. Anna is Engels maar heeft jaren in Portugal gewoond, waar heer dochter nog woont. Ivo is Bulgaar en spreekt uitstekend Engels. Zij zijn van plan in Bulgarije te gaan wonen en een camping te beginnen. We bestellen op aanraden van hen een bord gegrilde sprot, een bord patat met geitenkaas en een salade. Heerlijk. Het bier uit de koelkast in de bar vloeit rijkelijk en voor diner bestellen we om 5 uur nog een varkenslap. Als ik alles optel heb ik €19 betaald voor alles de hele dag. Lekker hoor.

Als we op de camping terugkomen is er een Nederlandse camper bijgekomen. De man drinkt een wijntje uit een plastic bekertje en zegt weinig. De vrouw daarentegen, kletst maar door. Ze lijkt op de vrouw van de Simpsons met haar vooruitstekende bovenlip en haar dat alleen bovenop alle kanten uit steekt. Ze zegt voor ASCI campings te beoordelen. Ik denk dat ze daar liever hebben dat ze dat niet doet. De bovenlip blijkt extra groot doordat ze is gestoken door een wesp. Als ik vertel dat ik allergisch ben zegt ze: maar dan heb je een spuit bij je. Ik kijk haar vragend aan. Ja, die moet je bij je huisarts halen en altijd bij je hebben. Ik kijk wel uit. Altijd met een spuit op zak lopen.

We gaan op aanraden van Ivo naar Melnik een leuk dorpje met veel wijnhuizen. Zijn we ook geweest, zegt mevrouw Simpson. Ik reageer niet.

De weg naar Melnik is goed te rijden. Zoals alle toeristische routes is het asfalt prima onderhouden en de wegbelijning ontbreekt niet. Anders is het als je een weggetje in gaat om de bergen in te gaan of een stuk af te snijden. Dan verandert het asfalt al snel in een karrenspoor dat steil omhoog of omlaag gaat. In ons geval moeten we door een gat in de berg om bij een waterval te komen. De weg wordt zo slecht dat we op 5 km van de waterval toch maar terugkeren.

We gaan naar het Rila klooster. We weten van te voren niet wat we gaan zien, maar met name de muurschilderingen zijn prachtig en verrassen ons positief.

Op de weg terug, passeren we weer een restaurant met grote vlakke parkeerplaats, die we op de heenweg ook zagen. Dat wordt dineren en overnachten. Er is zelfs een fontein met stromend water, zodat we ons s'morgens met stromend bergwater kunnen wassen.

Naast het Museumpark Vrana in Sofia is een autokamp, waar we voor €10 mogen staan. We hebben hier elektriciteit en Wifi. Ook is er een toilet waar ook in gedoucht kan worden. Anna had alleen ons de coördinaten gegeven en niet aan de Simpsons verteld.

Hier vandaan gaan we met de bus naar het centrum. Tenminste dat denken we. Na een drie kwartier in de bus te hebben gezeten rijden we weer langs de plek waar we opgestapt zijn en na een half uur op het eindpunt. De Bulgaarse mensen geven ongevraagd hulp. We worden ingelicht over waar we zijn, hoe we in het centrum kunnen komen en hoeveel het kost en waar we een kaartje kunnen kopen die in alle vervoermiddelen geldig is. Bus trolleybus, tram en metro.

Een vrouw tikt op een schuifraampje van een betraliede kiosk en besteld de kaartjes voor ons bij de dame die er achter zit. Dat raampje hadden we zelf nooit gevonden.

Sofia is een echte Oost Europese stad. In de buitenwijken veel flats en alleen in het centrum mooie gebouwen van overheids instellingen, musea en kerken. Ons hoogtepunt was restaurant Happy.

Een meisje leidt ons naar een tafeltje en zegt dat ze Elise heet en dat zij ons bedient vanavond. Ze draagt net als de andere meiden een rood minirokje, een grijs strak zittend poloshirt en sandaaltjes. Ze houd ons voortdurend in de gaten en weet feilloos wanneer we willen bestellen, en als mijn glas bier bijna leeg is komt ze vragen of ik een nieuwe wil. Stomme vraag aan mij, maar dat kan zij niet weten. Ik neem haar mee naar huis denk ik.

Kapitel 6

Ich war im Zimmer und zog meine Rüstung an. Ich müsste mich irgendwie schützen es wird kein Spaziergang sein. Steve kam rein mit dem Blick, den ich hasste. Ich wusste was er fragen wollte deswegen ließ ich es ihn gar nicht fragen.

Diana: Ich habe ihn vor paar Monaten getroffen. Im Club. Er hat mir geholfen mit Sara, als sie sich mal wieder voll abgeschossen hat. Er ging anschließend noch zu mir. Wir haben bis morgens früh geredet. Ich verliebte mich in seine Art. Auch wenn ich den nur zweimal sah. Ich wusste nicht was er an sich hatte. An dem Abend, wo das mit Chad passiert es, ist er zu mir gekommen. Er wollte es nicht. Er sagte immer das seine Arbeit zu gefährlich sei. Was jetzt relativ viel erklärt. Er blieb auf meine Bitte solange bis ich eingeschlafen bin. Ich weiß du bist jetzt sauer und wirst mich wahrscheinlich verurteilen, wie dumm und naiv ich sein konnte. Und ich weiß du bist sauer, dass ich deinem Befehl nicht gefolgt bin und mich wahrscheinlich in Gefahr gebracht habe. Aber hätte ich es nicht gemacht würdest du Tod sein und ich hätte es mir nie verziehen können. Ich wollte mich auch nicht in ihn verlieben, was heißt wollte, es war nicht geplant. Er ging mit mir sehr gut um und ich war glücklich in seiner Gegenwart.

Er war still, zu still. Normalerweise hätte er seinen Senf dazugegeben. Oder mir eine predigt gehalten wie dumm und naiv es ist sah in einen fremden zu verlieben. Und ihn überhaupt nach Hause einladen. Stattdessen nahm er mich nur in den Arm und druckte mich fest zu sein.

Steve: Ich hätte dich verlieren können Diana. Aber wurdest du nicht da sein, wäre ich wirklich vielleicht Tod gewesen. Ich verdanke dir mein Leben und das weißt du. Aber ich verstehe jetzt warum er dir nichts angetan hat und dich besch��tz hat. Du musst aber wirklich mehr auf dich aufpassen. Ich wurde es mir nie verzeihen, wenn dir was passiert. Und ich dich nicht beschützen kann. Ich verurteile dich nicht für deine Gefühle, wer bin ich schon um das zu tun? Du wusstest nicht wer er war. Ich meine Peggy und ich kannten uns auch nur kurz.

Diana: Du siehst doch ich kann sehrt gut auf mich selbst aufpassen.

Wir gingen zu Fuß zum Hauptquartier. Mit dem Auto wäre es viel zu gefährlich. Meine Waffen bestanden auf zwei Klingel. Ich war bereit dem Ganzen ein Ende zu setzen. Wir teilten uns auf. Ich wartete mit Sam auf ein Zeichen.

Sam: Bist du dir sicher, du kannst das? Diana: Werden wir sehen und du? Sam: Werden wir sehen.

Wir warteten in den Geb��schen vor dem Punkt. Es ging jede Sekunde los. Irgendwie konnte ich es nicht erwarten. Als Das Zeichen Kam Flog Sam los und warf mich auf den Platz, sodass ich mit meinen Fäusten einen Riss in den Platz machte. Ich wusste nicht, dass ich so viel Kraft hatte. Ich sah Muffin. Irgendwas war anders. Seine Augen waren voller Hass. Er war nicht er selbst. Er ging direkt auf mich los und wir kämpften. Meine Armbänder waren anscheinend gute Abwehr gegen seine Schläge. Ich hatte eine Aufgabe, den Chip in eine

den Flieger zu bringen und einzusetzen. Ich wartete nur auf sam der mich dahin brachte. Als ich den sah verpasste ich Muffin einen Kick, weswegen er fast von dem Gebäude fiel. Sam nahm ich und brachte in den Flieger.

Sam: Schaffst du das alleine?

Diana: Ja hilf den anderen. Ich komme hier irgendwie weg.

Dachte ich zumindest. Rumlow kam auf mich zu.

Rumlow: Na Prinzessin du dachtest doch nicht im ernst es wird so einfach sein oder?

Diana: Du widerst mich an. Entweder du lässt mich freiwillig durch oder ich muss dir weh tun.

Rumlow: Hast du ehrlich gedacht er wurde dich jemals lieben. Bis du ehrlich so naiv? Du warst immer nur seine Mission. Niemals mehr. Selbst die Entführung war er.

Diana: Wovon redest du schon wieder?

Ruhmlos: Er war der wenige, der dich damals Entführt hat und zu uns gebracht hat. Er sollte dich eigentlich umbringen. Aber doch stehst du hier vor mir und das Serum hat gewirkt. Du könntest eine perfekte Waffe für Hydra sein. Du könntest eine Führerin sein. Es ist noch nicht zu spät die Seiten zu wechseln.

Diana: Aso, wenn das so einfach ist.

Ruhmlos: Ehrlich?

Diana: Du kannst ehrlich nur von der Wand bis zur Tapete denken, obwohl das sogar schon zu übertrieben ist. Denkst du ehrlich ich wurde meine Familie für sowas wie euch verlassen und Verraten. Ihr seid Monster.

Ruhmlow: Das Monster, ist er.

Diana: Nein, ihr habt ihm die Wahl genommen und ihn dazu gezwungen. Aber ich werde für ihn Rache nehmen.

Ich ging auf ihn los. Ich musste irgendwie den Chip rein bekommen. Koste es was es wolle. Ich war stärker als er. Ich kannte auch die meisten seiner Kampfbewegungen. Sie wahren relativ lahm. Ich konnte die anderen nicht enttäuschen. Ich musste es schaffen. Es war ein sehr intensiver Kampf. Er verruchte mich abzuschießen. Ich war aber schneller. Durch seine Schüsse zersprang einer der Fenster im Boden. Es war meine Chance ihn los zu kriegen. Als er mich Angreifen wollte duckte ich mich und schupste ihn. Ich hätte nicht erwartet, dass er mich mitzieht. Im letzten Moment konnte ich jedoch noch die Kante packen und da nur runter wie er ins Wasser fiel. Ich zog mich mühsam hoch. Ich hotte ehrlich auf paar Schicken Nuggets verzichten können. Ich rannte und installierte den Chip. Als ich rüber zu dem Anderen Flieger guckte sah ich Steve und Muffin kämpfen. Steve wehrte sich nicht mal. Warum tat er das. Alles ging in Flammen auf. Er fiel ins Wasser. Ich stand immer noch in dem Flieger der langsam sich den Boden näherte und ich bereitete mich drauf rauszuspringen. Als ich raussprang knallte ich sehr gart auf den Boden. Sam Hälfte mir hoch.

Diana: Wo ist Steve und Nat?

Sam: Nat geht’s gut. Ich weiß nicht wo Steve ist.

Ich überlegte nicht lange und Sprang ins Wasser. Ich muss ich finden. Nach langer Suche, sah ich ihn am Strand liegen und ruft dort die Rettung. Er lebte. War aber Ohnmächtig. Im Krankenhaus angekommen wurde ich gezwungen mich abchecken zu lassen. Ich hatte keine kraft dagegen zu Protestieren. Die Krankenschwester brachte mich ins Zimmer von Steve. Er war schon wach.

Diana: Nach harte Landung gehabt?

Steve: Ich bin froh dir geht es gut.

Diana: Naja das kann ich von deinem Gesicht nicht behaupten. Es sieht ehrlich eklig aus. Sam lachte nur. Ich setzte mich zu Steve ans Bett und hielte seine Hand.

Diana: Steve was ist passiert?

Steve: Er war mit mir im Flieger. Wir kämpften gegeneinander. Ich glaube, dass du seine Schwäche bist. Ich sagte zu ihm, dass du ihn liebst. Er wollte mich fangen, bevor ich ins Wasser fiel. War aber zu langsam. Er rettete mich trotzdem. Er zog mich aus dem Wasser. Ich wollte, dass er bleibt, dass er bei dir bleibt. Er meinte nur, dass er zu gefährlich ist.

Diana: Weißt du wo er jetzt ist?

Steve: Er war verletzt. Vielleicht ist er wieder bei Hydra. Ich kann dir nicht sagen kleines. Tut mir leid.

Ich war froh aber auch wiederum traurig. Vielleicht hatte Rumlow recht und ich war nur sein nächstes Ziel, seine Mission. Als ich nach Hause wollte, traf ich auf Fury.

Fury: Bist du dir sicher du willst nach Hause fahren? Soll ich jemanden mit dir schicken?

Diana: Ich habe den Typen mächtig die Fresse poliert ich glaube so schnell werden sie mich nicht mehr angreifen.

Fury: Ich weiß. Dein Vater wird es zwar nicht mögen aber es ist mir relativ egal. Ich will dich bei den Avengers haben. Natürlich musst du viel trainieren um in Form zu kommen. Aber wir wurden so jemanden wie dich brauchen.

Diana: Aber S.H.I.E.L.D. gib es doch nicht mehr? Vor allem nicht, nachdem ihr die ganzen Informationen ins Internet veröffentlich habt.

Fury: Ja die gibt es nicht mehr aber Avengers wird es immer geben. Vor allem, weil die Menschen etwas brauchen an was sie glauben können. Also wurdest du dabei sein?

Diana: Wie könnte ich zu so einem Angebot nein sagen?

Fury: Gut du musst dich aber erstmal ausruhen. Es waren ehrlich harte Tage. Sicher du brauchst nichts?

Diana: Nein ich komme schon klar. Aber warte da wäre vielleicht doch noch was. Fury: Und zwar?

Diana: Ich brauche ein Auto. Ich bin genug gelaufen in den letzten Tagen.

Fury lachte nur und gab mir Schlüssel von einem der Wagen. Ich war mir nicht sicher, ob ich nach Hause fahren soll. Ich hatte da ein wenig Angst vor. Was wenn er da auf mich warten wurde? Ich fuhr zu Sara. Ich kam an und Atmet tief durch. Ich stieg aus. Das einzige was ich jetzt brauchte war eine Dusche und Klamotten. Die Röstung war auf Dauer unangenehm. Ich Klingelte und sie öffnete mir die Türe. Sie umarmte mich direkt. Ich habe sie vermisst.

Sara: Komm bitte rein. Geht es dir gut? Ich habe alles im Fernseher gesehen. Diana: Ja ich bin noch ganz.

Sara: Du musst mir alles erklären.

Diana: Ich glaube du hast mir erstmal etwas zu beichten.

Sara: Es tut mir leid. Ich wollte es dir früher erzählen, aber ich durfte es nicht. Wie hast du es rausgefunden?

Diana: Ich sah dich in dem Hauptquartier.

Sara: Ich bin nicht lange dabei gewesen. Ich sollte auf dich aufpassen aber dann wurden wir richtig befreundet und ich vergaß irgendwie die Mission. Ich habe dich durch meine Dummheit in Gefahr gebracht. Es tut mir leid.

Ich nahm sie in den Arm. Ich weiß wie sie sich fühlte. Dieses Gefühl kannte ich viel zu gut. Sara: Ruf deine Eltern an. Sie machen sich bestimmt sorgen.

Ich habe sie in dem ganzen Stress total vergessen. Ich Graf ans Telefon und rief sie an. Sie waren sehr besorgt aber ich konnte sie beruhigen. In der Zeit legte mir Sara Klamotten hin. Es war die richtige Entscheidung hierhin zu kommen. Ich telefonierte nicht lange mit meinen Eltern. Ich war total fertig.

Diana: Ich wurde schnell unter die Dusche hüpfen und danach dir alles erzählen. Ja?

Sara: Mach dir kein Stress, ich mache dir was zu essen erstmal. Ich kenne dei8ne Essgewohnheiten.

Die Dusche brannte an meiner Haut. Ich fing an zu weinen. Der ganze Stress, die ganzen ungeklärten Fragen. Ich hätte Steve verlieren können. Ich beruhigte mich schnell wieder. War das meine Bestimmung? Vielleicht war mein Leben bis jetzt deshalb so beschissen. Ich zog mich um und ging nach unten. Sara hatte Lasagne von gestern, die sie mir warm gemacht hat. Ich stopfte sie in mich rein.

Sara: Also?

Ich erzähle ihr alles was passiert ist. Sie guckte sehr oft sehr Überrascht und hatte ihr Augen weit geöffnet.

Sara: Also war der Typ, der mich nach Hause an jenem Abend gebracht hat der Winter Soldier? Und du dumme Nuss hast dich komplett in den verknallt?

Diana: Ich glaube die Königin von Fehlentscheidungen steht vor mir.

Wir lachten laut. Es war mal was Anderes. Wir machten uns was an und quatscht noch ein wenig. Ich schlief auf der Couch ein. Es war die erste Nacht die ich wieder komplett durchgeschlafen habe. Am Morgen entschieden wir auswärts zu Frühstücken. Die Zeitungen waren voll von dem gestrigen Ereignis und manche blicke trafen mich und starrten mich an.

Sara: Denkst du er sucht nach dir?

Diana: Ich glaube nicht. Ich meine Rumlow sagte es zwar nicht aber so wie es aussah war es seine Mission. Das erklärt es zumindest ein wenig.

Sara: Und was, wenn er sich wirklich in dich verliebt hat?

Diana: Ich vermute das werde ich niemals erfahren.

Egal wie sehr ich die Antworten wollte, nur er könnte es mir verraten. Aber ich wurde ihn nie wiedersehen. Ich meine er wird hier überall gesucht. Ich schrieb Steve eine Nachricht, dass ich mit Sara bin. Ich wollte nicht, dass er sich Sorgen macht. Wir hielten bisschen Smalltalk um von dem Thema abzukommen. Es war nämlich nicht gesund dauerhaft darüber zu reden.

Diana: Sollen wir vielleicht etwas shoppen gehen? Sara: Das klingt fantastisch.

Ich liebe shoppen. Ich meine welche Frau liebte es nicht. Ich kaufte mir paar neue Kleider und Passende Schuhe dazu. Ich vergiss die Zeit komplett. Es tat gut mal abzuschalten und einfach nicht zu denken. Wir gingen noch abschließend zu Starbucks. Ich fand den Laden zwar überteuert aber ab und zu kann man dahin. Wir tranken zu Ende und wollten gehen, als uns jemand ansprach.

Hallo, sie sind mir vom weiten schon sehr aufgefallen und ich wollte fragen, ob sie mit mir vielleicht mal auf einen Kaffee gehen wollen wurden? Sagte der Mann nett. Als ob ich nicht genug Männer Probleme in meinem Leben hätte.

Diana: Es ist sehr lieb aber ich bin zurzeit nicht wirklich an etwas interessiert. Also nicht, dass sie irgendwie nicht mein Typ wären oder ich sie Körben möchte, es ist einfach zurzeit bei mir sehr schwierig.

Oh, ja kein Problem ich kann es sehr gut nachvollziehen. Ich wünsche ihnen noch einen angenehmen tag.

Diana: Danke gleichfalls.

Er war so schnell weg wie er gekommen ist. Ich bekam einen Schlag auf den Hinterkopf. Diana. Aua spinnst du?

Sara: Die Frage ist ob du spinnst? Der Typ war total süß. Warum hast du dich nicht drauf eingelassen?

Diana: Wollen wir etwa vergessen was passiert ist als ich mich das letzte Mal auf jemanden fremden eingelassen habe? Und außerdem habe ich wirklich zurzeit kein Intere4sse.

Sara: So eine Lüge. Ich kenne dich mittlerweile sehr gut und weiß, dass du an ihn dauerhaft denkst.

Diana: Es spielt doch keine Rolle ob ich an ihn denke oder nicht. In meinem Leben geht grade so viel ab, dass ich erstmal klarkommen muss.

Sara: Du musst dich mal fallen lassen. Sollen wir dann mal.

Ich fuhr sie noch nach Hause. Meine Rüstung habe ich heute Morgen schon ins Auto gepackt.

Sara: Danke für den Tag. Ich habe es echt vermisst mit dir was zu unternehmen. Diana: Kann ich nur zurückgeben.

Ich fuhr langsam nach Hause, entschied mich aber davor noch in die Bücherei zu fahren, mir neue Bücher zu kaufen. Es war ja nicht so, als ob ich genug Bücher zuhause hatte. Ich entschied mich für ein ganzes halbes Jahr und Trust Again. Ich liebe Bücher. Manchmal beschrieben sie am besten meine Gefühle. An der Kasse traf ich an Sharon. Ich konnte sie irgendwie nicht leiden aber bevor ich mich verstecken konnte hat sie mich schon gesehen und ging auf mich zu.

Sharon: Du auch hier?

Diana: Ja. Hab dich hier noch nie gesehen.

Sharon: Ich zog kurz vor Steve in die Wohnung ein. Hab den Laden erst vor kurzem Entdeckt.

Ich glaubte ihr nicht. Sie sah nicht wie ein Mensch aus, der ansatzweise Bücher liest.

Diana: Ich wurde liebend gern weiter mit dir quatschen aber ich muss nach Hause.

Sharon: Alles gut, geht es dir seit der Mission gut?

Diana: Ich bin ein wenig angeschlagen aber sonst ist alles in Ordnung. Ich bin dann mal weg.

Bevor sie weiteres sagen konnte mache ich mich auf dem Weg ins Auto. Ich hatte nicht weit bis nach Hause. Im Parkhaus angekommen Atmete ich nochmal tief durch. Ich entschied mich die Treppen zu gehen, ich wollte nicht gesehen werden. Das Treppenhaus war mal wieder dunkel. Es kümmerte sich keiner, die Glühbirnen mal auszutauschen. Ich beeilte mich

nicht und ging langsam nach oben. Als ich die Türe auf meiner Etage aufmachte fiel mir auf, dass auf der Türklinge Blut ist. Es waren auf dem Boden tropfen zu sehen, die zu meiner Wohnung führten. Die Türe war leicht auf. Ich ging langsam und leise rein, mein Atem stockte und ich erstarrte, als ich die Türe öffnete.

Pujaan

Imajinasiku kali ini mungkin sedikit dewasa, tapi ya inilah yang ada di benakku. Selamat menikmati, apapun yang kau nikmati!

Saat yang ku tunggu-tunggu pun tiba, berkenalan dengan sosok lelaki yang sebelumnya hanya bisa ku kagumi dari kejauhan. Jaka, seorang lelaki yang sungguh memesona dan memikat hati.

Terhitung tiga bulan aku mengaguminya, dan baru setelah waktu itulah aku menemukannya di sebuah sosial media. Hari demi hari ku pantau kesehariannya, tanpa berani mengirim sedikit pun pesan kepadanya.

Setelah satu minggu, aku pun tak kuasa untuk tidak mengirimkan nya sebuah pesan. Dimulailah petualanganku.

Banyak hal yang kita perbincangkan lewat pesan-pesan singkat itu. Hingga pada suatu hari, Jaka mengajakku untuk berkencan, "Saras, jalan yuk?" Tanpa pikir panjang, akupun langsung mengiyakan ajakan nya!

---

Hari ini adalah hari yang sangat ku tunggu, kali pertama aku berkencan dengan lelaki yang sudah cukup lama ku kagumi.

Kami berencana tuk menonton film di rumah persinggahan nya di bawah kaki sebuah gunung. Namun sebelum itu, kami menuju tempat kost rekan nya dengan tujuan menambah energi laptopku, karena di rumah persinggahan nya itu tidak ada listrik.

Sampailah kami di tempat kost. Kata demi kata terlontar, dilanjutkan dengan cerita hidup yang saling kita berikan, ditemani sebotol minuman yang membuat semakin hangatnya malam itu.

---

Rumah persinggahan itu cukup nyaman. Hanya saja butuh lebih banyak peneranangan untuk membuat rumah itu semakin nyaman.

Diputarlah sebuah film, masih dengan ditemani sebotol penghangat. Hingga kesadaranku pun perlahan menghilang... "Udah, gak kuat" aku berkata.

Setengah sadar aku pun bercumbu dengannya, hanyut dalam kenikmatan. Namun kemudian.. "Ahhhh, apa yang dia lakukan?" Hatiku berkata. Setengah dari alam sadarku merasa ada sesuatu yang menusuk ke dalam kewanitaanku, "Ohhhh, tidak! Tolong jangan renggut keperawananku!" Entah terucap atau tidak kalimat itu.

---

Cahaya matahari pagi itu bersinar tepat ke arah wajah kami. Ya, kami yang sedang bercumbu di pagi hari. Kelopak mataku terangkat dan seketika aku menyaksikan senyuman indah yang tersinggung di bibir nya.

Namun... "Kenapa kewanitaanku terasa sakit sekali?" Seketika itu sebuah bayangan menghantui pikiranku! "Mimpi kah aku semalam melakukan kebusukan itu? Atau....." aku langsung bergegas merapikan pakaianku dan beranjak, "Mau ke mana kamu?" Ia pun terkejut dan bertanya. "Hmm, aku mau ke toilet."

Saat ku buka pakaian dalamku, betapa terkejutnya aku melihat pemandangan berdarah di sana! "Oh Tuhan, apa yang dia lakukan?" Aku begitu panik dan marah.

Dengan kemunafikan, aku bertanya padanya "Semalem kita ngapain?" Dan dengan terkejut ia pun menjawab "Hah? Gak ngapain2 koo, kita tidur." Sambil merubah raut wajah menjadi memohon, aku pun menjawab "Hmm aku ngerasain ko, gak usah takut, aku menikmatinya hihi". Wajahnya pun kembali sumringah "Heheheh iyaa, maaf ya.", aku hanya tersenyum dan berkata "Lagi yuk, aku ingin merasakannya dengan penuh kesadaran hehe"

---

Kami pun kembali bercumbu, sambil tangan nya tak henti-henti meraba sekujur tubuhku. Desahan demi desahan terlontar dari masing-masing kami. Ahhhh, dia mulai menggerayami kewanitaanku. Tak ingin kalah, tanganku pun mulai ku selipkan pada celana pendek yang ia kenakan.

Bibirnya dan bibirku terus berpagut, sambil tangan kami tak berhenti memberikan kenikmatan satu sama lain pada area intim. Tiba saatnya ia meminta kesempurnaan kenikmatan. Aku pun berkata "Aku di atas yaa". "Saatnya telah tiba!" Batinku berkata.

"Ahhhhh" kata itu terus terlontar dari mulut nya hingga matanya tertutup rapat, terbuai dalam kenikmatan. "Dia telah tenggelam dalam kenikmatan, ini saatnya!" Batinku berkata.

Perlahan ku tarik pisau lipatku dari saku belakang celanaku, aku ayunkan dan mendarat tepat pada leher sebelah kirinya dengan pendaratan yang panjang! "A..a..." desahannya berubah menjadi sebuah penderitaan, tangan nya refleks menahan alur keluar darah.

Aku cabut pisauku dari lehernya, lalu aku buat pisauku menari di dada nya, "Hahahaha nikmat bukan mengambil keperawanan seorang perempuan suci?" Aku goreskan tinta merah di dadanya dengan bentuk abstrak. Tak puas dengan hal itu, aku tarik pisau itu ke bagian perutnya. Aku tusukan sedalam yang ku mampu, lalu aku membuat bentuk lingkaran di perut nya.

Ahhhh indah bukan? Aku tarik daging perut nya, dan terlihatlah isi dari perutnya dengan genangan darah yang menggoda. Usus. Hal pertama yang ku incar. Aku tarik ususnya keluar, aku potong-potong layaknya sosis. Ahhhh nikmat sekali perlakuan ini.

Setelah puas dengan perut nya, aku pun beralih ke kepala nya. Sambil aku elus rambutnya, sambil aku berkata "Tampannya kamu, andai saja kau tidak bermain api denganku." Aku mulai menguliti wajahnya dengan pisauku yang sudah berlumuran darah. Memotong batang hidungnya, dan mencongkel bola matanya. "Matamu bagus, aku jadikan kenang-kenangan ya"

---

Mengingat waktu yang semakin siang, aku pun bergegas membersihkan diri dan pergi dari tempat itu. Untungnya aku tau jalan lain selain jalan utama menuju persinggahan itu.

Ahhh akhirnya, sampai juga aku dipemukiman. Aku istirahat sejenak di sebuah warung sambil beralasan bahwa aku akan menuju puncak dari gunung ini. Namun tiba-tiba, seseorang berkata "Jangan sekarang neng, mending neng pulang lagi aja, itu di atas ada yang dibunuh sadis. Takutnya neng malah pingsan lagi pas ngeliat." Lalu dengan santai aku pun menjawab sambil mengalihkan pembicaraan "Oh gitu yaa bu, yaudah deh. Ngomong2, toilet di sebelah mana ya bu? Saya mau bersihin bercak merah di tangan saya nih"

Is Nevada Power planning to raise residential rates again?

New Post has been published on http://www.getsolarize.com/is-nevada-power-planning-to-raise-residential-rates-again/

Is Nevada Power planning to raise residential rates again?

The Nevada Public Utilities Commission next week will give consumers another chance to comment on a Nevada Energy rate plan offered in response to the state’s new net metering law.

The Dec. 6 PUC session in Las Vegas delves into an array of topics that regulators, the utility, consumers and the solar industry have debated for years.

Net metering refers to a billing system crediting ratepayers for energy generated from rooftop solar systems when the power generated exceeds what the ratepayer uses per month. Supporters of such credits say they will help ramp up Nevada’s struggling solar industry, but detractors describe the credits as special-interest subsidies.

The Nevada PUC in 2015 moved to eliminate net metering at retail rates for new solar customers, but that action led many solar companies to pull out of the state. The legislature this year approved AB 405, a bill that reinstated net metering for new solar customers at rates of between 95 and 75 percent of retail over the life of the solar panels.

Nevada Energy last month proposed to maintain its current revenue needs over the next three years, but residential customers in southern Nevada would see their fixed monthly service charge rise from $12.75 to $17.36, an increase of $4.61, according to this initial proposal. The per-kilowatt-hour charges, however, would decrease. Overall, an average family’s bill would increase by about $2.64 per month, or less than 2 percent.

But the company on Nov. 22 updated its PUC filing, deferring any increase in fixed rates until after a 2018 statewide vote on injecting more competition into the energy market.

“The rate increase certainly shouldn’t be a surprise to anybody,” Michael Schaus, spokesman for the Nevada Policy Research Institute, told Watchdog.org. “Nevada Energy, a regulated monopoly, has to look for ways to recoup costs to compensate for revenue reductions resulting from the return of net metering,” Schaus said. “State lawmakers restored net metering to a level based on retail rates as way to get solar companies to do more business in Nevada”

“From our perspective, that was a step in the wrong direction,” Mr. Schaus said.

According to Schaus “The Nevada Policy Research Institute favors a more competitive energy market modeled after the one now in place in Texas. Under Nevada’s current system, the legislature is determining the net metering rate rather that an open market where multiple companies compete for a customer base”

“But one danger we see here … would be the renewable portfolio standards in the state,” he said. Those standards require utilities to have a certain percentage of their power coming from solar and wind generation – two sources that Schaus said are environmentally damaging.

Regardless of whether Nevada Energy eventually seeks and gets a major rate hike, consumers are going to see more increases in rates due to the renewable standards that have been imposed in Nevada, Schaus said.

Nevada voters will have a chance to approve a shift to a more competitive energy market in November 2018. Voters approved that concept in 2016, but a second favorable vote is required before it becomes part of the state constitution.

Peter Kostes, spokesman for the Nevada PUC, said the commission couldn’t comment on rate issues that involved pending litigation. “It is an open case, and the rate design phase will commence on Dec. 4,” Kostes said in an email to Watchdog.org. “A decision will issue as soon as possible.”

Sara Gersen, an attorney for EarthJustice, argues that Nevada Energy’s previous rate plan would shift the cost burden from those who use a lot of energy to those who use less energy, including lower-income Nevadans.

“What that means is that they want to make more money through the fixed part of the residential customers’ monthly residential bill,” Gersen told Watchdog.org, adding that the fixed costs can’t be avoided by cutting energy use.

Nevada Energy has argued that the company is simply responding to AB 405, she said, but the company is among many utilities across the country that have been requesting increases in fixed charges, a strategy that allows the company to reduce financial risks.

“It protects them and their shareholders in case customers decide to pay less money by using less energy or installing solar panels,” Gersen said.

EarthJustice represents Vote Solar, a solar power advocacy organization, in the current rate proceeding before the Nevada PUC.

Nevada Energy has had a history of opposition to net metering, according to Gersen, and the company has balked at putting it back in place despite clear language in AB 405.

“The Nevada legislature and Gov. [Brian] Sandoval deserve a lot of credit for AB 405 and taking the leadership to restore net metering,” she said.

The law will do a lot to reinvigorate the solar industry in Nevada and give residents a growing supply of renewable energy, Gersen said.

It is true that net metering does help reduce the need for the utility to find new energy supplies to meet future demand, but it doesn’t provide short-term financial rewards, according to Gersen.

“That doesn’t help Nevada Energy make money,” she said.

Defining: Heteronormativity By Sara Schmidt-Kost

Welcome to another installment of our “Defining” series, where we unpack various terms and identities. Do you have a word that needs defining? Let us know!

Define It:

Heteronormativity is the normalization of heterosexuality, or sexual attraction between a man and a woman. Heteronormativity says that being heterosexual—or straight—is normal, and it should be assumed that everyone everywhere is straight unless openly stated otherwise.

Explain It:

Heteronormativity is everywhere, from literature to music, from movies to television, from art to history, to societal institutions, to everyday life. Heteronormativity dictates that heterosexual is the default sexuality. The straight default setting on our society can really start to mess with our heads.

As queer youth, we see heterosexuality on display everywhere we go. We see it in advertisements, we see it in music videos, we see it on the big screen. In order to see our own queer identity in print, art, and media, we have to actively seek it out. While representations of our LGBTQIA identities in print, art, and media are getting better and more common, they have not always been easy to find. In fact, throughout history, we have had to use coded language and coded imagery to avoid censorship and find our identities in a sea of heterosexuality.

Because being straight is seen as the norm, queer identities are often disregarded and heterosexuality is forced on children from a very young age (Hello, “Chick Magnet” and “Sorry Boys” onesies!). Age-appropriate playground behavior by young children is given heterosexual undertones by adults inappropriately sexualizing innocent actions. “Oh, little Johnny is just flirting with little Suzy.” “Is that your girlfriend, little Billy?” Many queer adults had some idea of their queer identity from a young age, but because of heteronormativity we were not able to explore or fully develop our own identities until we are much older.

Not only does heteronormativity normalize being straight, it also privileges those that identify as straight over LGBTQIA folks. Our societal institutions—marriage, education, hospitals, the legal system, and many more—give more power and rights to those who are straight. Even small things, like the way forms are written (husband/wife, mom/dad) normalize straight couples. Having to scratch out “husband” on a form and write “wife #2” is a small but painful dig at our identity and our relationships. It’s just another way to say that we’re not normal, we’re not the default, we are other.

Debunk It:

• Don’t assume identities

Heteronormativity is very pervasive, and it can be hard to not assume people's identities. But we should still push against the norm and do our best to avoid assumptions. When meeting a person for the first time, we can use inclusive language to allow a person to express their own identity in their own way. For example, using “significant other” or “partner” instead of “boy/girlfriend” or “husband/wife” language is more inclusive, gender-neutral, and allows the other person to claim their own identity.

• Make room for queer media

Because heterosexuality is the norm, we have to actively seek out queer media. By advocating for a wide variety of identities represented in print, art, and media, we can use our voices and our choices to push for more queer representation in mainstream media. Watching TV shows like One Day at a Time or movies like Love, Simon as a family is a small and easy way to introduce queer identities to the whole family.

• Learn queer history

The LGBTQIA community has always been here. We may not have had a seat at the table before, and our identities were pushed to the margins, ignored, or covered up all together, but we have always existed. We have a rich and important history that should be studied and included in the historical narrative of the world. Check out our Pride Month series, Know Your Queer History, for a 3-part history lesson on influential LGBTQ activists, artists, and politicians throughout history!

Studieuke

Folk valgte å gjøre litt forskjellig i studie uken. Noen var i Havana, Anna tok turn til New York, Anne Marit utforsket Cuba med Buss og Jeg, Marte og Anne Marit tok turen til toppen av Cuba, Pico Turquino.

Anna i New York

I studieuken dro jeg (Anna) 10 dager til New York, da jeg fant rimelige flybilletter som gikk direkte fra Havanna! Jeg var så heldig å ha familievenner å bo hos og fikk besøk av både søsteren sin og søskenbarnet mitt. Det var utrolig en forskjell å forlate Havanna ris- og bønnemiddag og å komme til matparadiset New York. En Starbucks på hvert gatehjørne er jo noe man bare kan drømme om her. Men et skal sies at etter oppholdet mitt der var det deilig å komme tilbake hit til 30 grader og sol igjen!

Toppen av Cuba

Torsdag 12.10 tok jeg (Sara) og Marta turen til Santiago de Cuba med fly. I Santiago de Cuba skulle vi treffe Anne Marit som hadde vert og utforsket Cuba med buss. Hun var blant annet innom Sangtispiritus, Baracoa, Guantanamo og Caraguey. Vi hadde bestemt oss for å bestige Cubas høyeste fjell, Pico Turquino som ligger på 1974 moh.

I Santiago de Cuba bodde vi hos et veldig koselig ektepar som styrte på og fikset det vi måtte trenge. De hadde en restaurant med tidenes utsikt over byen.

Dagen etter (fredag) tok vi taxi til Bayamo, som ligger ca. 1-2 timer, fra Santiago. Den turen tok mindre tid enn forventet. Vi satt med hjerte i halsen hele kjøreturen, mens sjåføren peiset på i 120 km/t, i en bil som var eldre enn oss i bilen tilsammen. Noen valgte å holde seg fast mens andre forsøke å sovne stille inn. Etter en heftig biltur booket fjellturen i Bayamo. Vi måtte dra videre til Santo Domingo (langt i gokk) for å overnatte fordi vi måtte starte fjellturen tidlig. Mens vi ventet på taxien som skulle ta oss til Santo Domingo bestemte vi oss for å se oss litt rundt Bayamo.

Vi kom frem til Santo Domingo på kvelden, spiste middag og la oss nok så tidlig. Vi hadde ikke fått så mye informasjon om oppmøtetid for turen på lørdag, men noen hadde sagt rundt 09.00... så vi møtte nå opp kl.09.00 på kontoret til ecotour (de som organisere turen). Der fikk vi beskjed om at vi ikke hadde noen reservasjon for turen... vi ble ganske stresset. Hadde vi gjort så mye for gjeves? Men samtidig ble vi ikke så overasket, vi er tross alt på Cuba hahah! Alt går treigt her. Etter et par telefoner fikk vi fikset det. Så da startet turen litt senere enn forventet, altså på cubansk tid.

Vi gikk med guide og et eldre søskenpar fra Spania. Den spanske mannen (Herman) overrasket oss veldig, for en turgåer! Han dro oss oppover bakkene, enkelt som bare det. Litt oppi bakken blir han litt sliten og slipper oss jenter forbi. Plutselig hører vi et skrik bak oss fra den spanske kvinnen, HERMAAN! Og Harman hadde gått i bakken. Vi trodde først han hadde fått ett hjerteinfarkt, men han sa det bare var overoppheting. Vi synes å at hadde så lite med seg så vi ga dem litt vann med elektrolytter, og en energibar til Herman. Disse to hadde verken tatt med seg vann eller mat for en 2 dagers fjelltur!! Vi ble helt satt ut, inkludert guiden. Guiden så at vi var vant til å gå på tur og sa at vi kunne fortsette turen alene. Så vi gjorde nå det. Vi tenkte at de garantert kommer til å snu.

Etter 4 timer kom vi frem til campen. Her fikk vi lunsj som besto av hermetiserte sardiner, spagetti og ris... det er ikke det beste vi hadde smakt kan man si ahahh! Etter en times pause gikk vi videre til toppen. Det må sies at det var en skikkelig demotiverende ut. Vi er jo vant til at det går bortover og opper til toppen i Norge. Men her gikk opp og ned, opp og ned. Når vi endelig kom til toppen var det dessverre ikke så mye å se. Vi sto midt inni en sky, men vi fikk selvfølgelig se en statue av Jose Martin. Det finnes ikke et gatehjørne, vei, bygning eller fjelltopp som ikke har noe som referere til Jose Martin. Anne Marit hadde tatt med seg sjokolade fra Baracoa, så det koste vi oss med på toppen.

Vi karret oss ned igjen til campen, og gjett hvem som satt der, spanjolene! Hvem skulle trodd det. Vi spiste middag sammen. Den besto av restene av sardinene fra lunsjen, ris og grisekjøtt. Sliten etter å ha gått i 9 timer la vi oss og sa god natt it lederkoppene ved siden av sengen.

Dagen etter startet vi nedturen tidlig slik at vi kunne rekke bussen tilbake til Santiago de Cuba. Spanjolene gikk aldri til toppen. Mens vi ventet i Bayamo på bussen som skulle ta oss tilbake til Santiago de Cuba bli vi invitert av noen cubanere på en fisk og øl restaurant. Her ble Anne Marit gift vekk til en cubaner mens resten av vennegjengen sto og tok bilder og filmet oss i alle retninger haahah! Vi kom tilbake til Santiago de Cuba den 15 og tok fly tilbake til Havanna mandag 16 og ble kjørt rett på skolen fra flyplassen.

Det var litt av en opplevelsesrik tur og vi ville ikke vært foruten den!
