I've not had a formal IQ test but I did Weschler online and got this:

I did it with mental math because I wasn't sure if people were allowed to calculate with a pencil?
Perhaps I'd be higher with a pencil?


My avatar is from the 1943 film version of Jane Eyre, with Peggy Ann Garner.
Jane was punished and abused for speaking out of turn at her puritanical school.

My hardest class was Anthropology for some reason. I hated it.
I also had a University Calculus exam wherein the only question was an essay: "Does Math exist or did people invent it?" (Support with examples).

This would have been suitable for my Philosophy of Math class, but it wasn't that class. I hadn't even studied Philosophy of Math at that point. I was very shocked by the prose question on a Calculus exam, but I must have done alright in my response. I got a high grade. :heart:

Do you like eggplant?

I like it in a garlicky baba ghanoush. Otherwise I don't care for it too much. It soaks up SO much oil and texture-wise when it gets too mushy, I don't like it.

Same q

I'm usually happy when I'm alone, in my house, with my dog, stimming and self-directing. Change one variable and you change them all, so to speak.

How are you doing, April?

Goodness I do think so. Is it more b/c of how i struggle to come to terms with how there's nothing wrong with my decisions in spite of a c---y past and being in an environment which I don't think will ever change relevantly within my life time?. I wish I was some kind of scholar in 'choice theory' of something to that effect. >:l To h--- with that you only learn by making mistakes c--p!.

Actually Yoko Kanno is a composer for famous for her work on anime shows including the more jazz influenced soundtrack of 'Cowboy Bebop'.

Even if your not a woman would you take it as a 'red flag indicator' to switch to another job a.s.a.p. if you hear about how someone was once thought to be something to the effect of a perpetrator in work place sexual harassment?.

I'm not sure I understand the question. Are you asking if I would quit a job because someone was perpetrating sexual harassment?

No, I wouldn't. That's my job! Why should I have to lose it? I would press charges so they can leave, not me.

I don't think anyone need be tormented via harassment.



Do you sometimes laugh at things others don't pick up on?
