Ms. Rachel calls out Barack Obama's statement on Gaza, highlighting how referring to 'Israeli families' while calling Palestinians 'the people of Gaza' strips them of their humanity. 'Palestinians have families, too,' she wrote.

one of the reasons it is so hard to go thru my teacher stuff is that some of it includes gently used things that once belonged to my own kids

In today's episode of otherworldly fungi: a close look at Polycephalomyces tomentosus! It's growing right alongside what's likely a species of slime mold.

yessss 💪🏼

the time+effort for this is so necessary and worth it. i externalize my thought processes as much as possible to model healthy communication

and ofc i learn a lot as well when they call me in/out 🙃

raising good humans is hard humbling work but this is the way

vv grateful that even as they get older and are making more+more decisions on their own, we continue to be able to find common ground

direct communication and the willingness to have hard conversations is always so key

ty ty - very much appreciated

so much harder when you’re making decisions that affect others

and so so much harder when those decisions are made solo

(tho ofc 16+19 were consulted every step of the way)

After a long pause, I've just done another England Covid & NHS update as we head into the autumn/winter season.

TLDR: we're in a significant Covid wave now, the NHS is stretched, get boosted if you're eligible.

Russula rhodocephala, the Redhead Russula, is likely what this is. There are so many Russula species. I'm almost never 100% sure!

A large and beautiful pinkish-red mushroom grows out of a thick bed of pine needles. Its stipe and cap are the same pretty color. The gills are slightly separated and appear almost page-like, which is common for Russula species, as far as I've observed.
