Alt Department of Education @altdepted.bsky.social · 1d

We are hearing that almost all of the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (OESE) has been let go. This is devastating news for both the employees, who are being treated as nothing more than political pawns, and for K–12 education in this country—both deserve better.

Time to found some new institutions. How about a national media company called The Herald that picks up the best talent that’s been pushed out of the legacy papers and permanently employs the key members of the Mamdani press team.

100% here for AM radio announcering. But I also love the sleepy crack of the bat against ball as background sound. Also I think the whole project is hilarious.

If anyone sees a lady in a cat onesie taking communion at Broadview on the news tonight lmk! (It’s me. I was in a cat onesie.) The Rev said: “this is the cup of heaven, poured out for you. Nice Malört shirt.”
