Just an ordinary educator trying to make the world equitable for everyone.
In recent days I have become way more vocal about my opposition to Trump and his sycophants.

Silence helps the oppressor. I want my grandchildren to hear my voice for the oppressed loud and clear. Who is hearing your voice?

“Why are we listening to the outliers?” Spar said. “We want our students to be safe.”

Once again, Florida can't listen to teachers. Or common sense.

The world is on fire, led by the United States.

If you scroll by because you think, "Trump was right about everything," know that I am talking to you.

You know what to do. Don't be the person who didn't think the Nazis were doing anything wrong.

Truly, what is the best way to save our country? Every day #Trump flouts the rule of law more seriously than the day before, and the other two branches turn a blind eye. I worry we cannot wait for midterms.

This is really bad folks. Not the jobs report, which is bad enough. But that Trump fired someone else who told a truth he didn’t like.

What's happening now is a combination of all of these books -- savagery toward each other, oppression under the guise of what's called "freedom," stripping women of rights to their own bodies, hatred of those different from us, suppression of intellectual freedom. The list goes on.

Make good trouble. The Ides of Trump are coming.

Disgraceful behavior by a US president, but good for Zelensky for standing up to Trump. Unfortunately, this just emboldens Russia even more.

Don't forget this tomorrow.
Seeing this on Thursday? Go buy gas now. Go to Jewel now. Sign out of Amazon now. You get the picture. But DO head to a local small business tomorrow. Always support small businesses, especially women- and minority-owned, when you can. And use cash!

You know who does this? Fascists.

Freedom of the press is in the First Amendment for a reason — it’s that important.

So fun to find new ed tech tools! Wayback Machine (web.archive.org) helps you estimate the date of an online article if the date is not published. And Claud.io is a robust LLM. I'm not sure right now how it holds up against ChatCPT, but the interface is certainly friendlier. Cool stuff.
