Interesting piece on internalized color-blindness. A difficult general question for me in raising children has been how to teach them to externally conform to social norms without internalizing those norms which are actually silly. I don't have a particularly good answer.

1- love the derivatives blog. Finally someone correctly explaining how my life works and what is really going on. Quite a few people here in particular need to absorb this.
2-In college a sweet biology geek gave me a slime mold as a gift. Why? He was too broke to buy me roses. It was the only thing he had and he loved it. Its name was Harvey, it lived in a nice dish and ate oatmeal. I was sad when it dried up over Thanksgiving when my roommate forget to take care of it. But luckily you know they easily come back to life! Sadly the sweet geek dumped me for a girl nerd he met at a con. Thanks for the memory, Tyler!

Purpose

- This is type of disclaimer makes me doubt the guiding principles of higher ed..
