Teacher. Father. Procrastinator.

Trying real hard to try.

Spent some of my morning showing the last act of Mulholland Drive to my Film Studies class, not realising David Lynch had died.

A fittingly sad and strange day. #RIPDavidLynch You have allowed me to connect with so many of my students over the years.

Re-watching old episodes of ER with our two girls. Had totally forgotten the @kristinhersh.bsky.social version of Trouble features in one of them! Got exactly the same thrill as first time round!!!

And I’m out of Asda. Queue time at the tills… 35 minutes.

Most people in Asda this morning seem to have never been in a supermarket before.

For the second year running, I will miss my daughter’s Christmas concert tonight because of a Parents’ Evening at my school. Just another way in which teachers are forced to put their students before their families.

Metaphore.

Similie.

35 years of service, trying to counter this pernicious evil. No headway.

That feeling of immense satisfaction and pride when you have just marked all the Q1s on your English Language Paper 1 mocks in five minutes flat. Only another 7 hours of questions still to go.

"Our male students are using expressions such as ‘alpha’, ‘simp’, ‘sigma’ and ‘lone wolf’ – the same words that Laura Bates discovered are part of the language incels use about themselves and other misogynists."
