...He doesn't want to do that because it's too much work. So he doesn't want to work too hard. He wants to go back and play golf.

You know, it's supposed to be negotiated; you're supposed to cajole, get people in a room; you're supposed to deal with them, you have Republicans, you have Democrats, you have all these people that get elected to do this stuff, and you're supposed to get together and pass a law....

Children should not be living in fear that their lives will be turned upside down while they are in school trying to better themselves and their community.

Several of our students this morning are anxious because they heard there are ICE raids happening in our town.

I haven't been told any district official policy, but I will not allow any ICE official to harass/take one of my students while they are in my care. Arrest me.

This weekend my husband and I have planned our first night away from the baby since he was born 7 months ago.

In-laws are taking the baby for a night, hubby and I have couples massages booked, dinner reservations at a nice restaurant, and a hotel stay booked with a room with an en suite hot tub!

Nothing pisses me off quite the same way as people who follow you, then after you follow back, they unfollow you.

I regularly go through my follows and unfollow those who have done this.

A story of two school environments:

My husband was hired at his school a year ago. He's spoken with his principal twice since then.

I work in a different school in the same district. My principal babysits our infant so we can have date nights.

So Facebook removes a comment calling out a rape threat, but thinks the rape threat itself doesn't violate any community standards. Ok.

@i55i.bsky.social If you are going to follow someone, and then immediately unfollow them when they reciprocate, you're just an asshole who should be banned.

This year has been a tough one. Losing my mom while still learning how to be a mom myself has been a major struggle. And with living paycheck-to-paycheck on teacher salaries, Christmas will be small.

I'd love a little Christmas magic for my son's wishlist! www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

a christmas tree with the words " believe in the magic " on a blue background

What am I being tagged in?

It's from "Captain America: The First Avenger". Stanley Tucci's character Abraham Erskine says it to Steve Rogers.

lmao I put that quote in my lesson on the rise of Hitler for my high schoolers. Once in a while a student calls me out on it.

Thank you! I want to make sure my students have the best school experience and education I can provide!

Purchasing anything off the list (or off my regular classroom list in my pinned post) would be a huge help! ❤️

If you're going to follow people, just to unfollow them after they reciprocate, don't even bother.

Any Scotch drinkers in my followers?

I'm trying to buy a bottle for my husband as a gift, and I have no freakin' clue about Scotch. He likes the kind that smell like burning asphalt. My budget is about $60. Any recommendations?
