Greetings! The name is Time Lizzy, or Time as my friends call me. They/Them pronouns. I love to try new things, draw, sing, dance, garden, and I do some witchcraft in my free time. I'm a Hetalia role playing partner if you guys are interested.
No protected person may be punished for an offense he or she has not personally committed. Collective penalties and likewise all measures of intimidation or of terrorism are prohibited.
This technically counts, as students are civilians, and thus considered a “protected person”. So yes, collective classroom punishment breaks the fourth Geneva Convention, and she should be rewarded for standing up for human rights and doing her research.
Some Thoughts about the “Big Picture”: A Metaphor for Life
Logan: Logan seems to want very much to understand the painting in Thomas’ living room. In fact, he’s asked about it seven times. It seems to frustrate him that it is something he may never fully understand. Consider this as Logan’s approach to life: desperate to understand, even though some things may be beyond him.
Roman: Does not acknowledge the painting at all. Consider how Logan accuses Roman of ignoring reality by fantasizing and dreaming up alternative worlds.
Patton: Appreciates the painting without questions. He seems quite happy just to be looking at it. It’s his transition into talking about making others happy. Patton sees the world in the same way: as a piece of beautiful art that can be appreciated without understanding all of it.
Virgil: Virgil is drawn to the painting by Patton (emotion/morality) and says that he finds the “big picture” calming. Coping with anxiety often means asking “what’s the worst that could happen in the big picture?” or “will this be important to me in five years?” Virgil can be helped by looking at the big picture of life and not focusing so much on the little things.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk where TED stands for Thomas Excellence Daily.
