Ah, the millennial experience of “every time you get some measure of financial and career stability, the world decides to do something extraordinarily stupid again”

The recent tragedy at the Texas Color Guard Circuit Percussion event has deeply shaken our community. In marching arts, we are all connected, and events like this ripple through our friends, peers, and organizations.

pretty grim when health insurance company executives have to try to hide their identities online like they're public school history teachers, government employees or doctors who care for transgender people
United Health just deleted this page from their website lol

Didn’t think picking the “manager’s special” would give me an extra big-ass truck in a place with very narrow roads and parking spots. Challenge accepted 🤪

Finally got to use my TSA PreCheck and it’s nice to be reminded of how flying used to be 😂

First surprise observation by my principal was with my most well-behaved class. Sweet, sweet relief 😮‍💨

Found out the hard way that none of my students actually played recorder last year (even though it was in the lesson plans) so I just bought 100 of them. Once again, love having money to spend 🤑

When I'm substitute teaching, I frequently impress classes by correctly pronouncing everyone's name right on the first try. Linguistic roots, baby. I'm steadily getting better at remembering names quickly, too.
What’s your ordinary magical power? It has almost no actual impact on your life but happens so much it’s A Thing?

For me I almost always know when someone is taking a photo of me and can triangulate in on them.

This was the subject at school mass today. The pastor brought up the allegation that Lawrence said “I’m done on this side - turn me over” as he was being GRILLED TO DEATH

This sculpture of St Lawrence from St John’s Abbey is INTENSE.

Well, of all the Twitter replacements I've tried so far, this is definitely the one that most closely resembles Twitter.
