Yeah... when I first heard “accountability” enter the #education jargon in the 1990’s, I knew we had taken a step in the wrong direction. It is one of the most distracting of the red herrings in the field.

We're working hard to raise the funds needed to add Jenn to a town board in desperate need for her voice, expertise, and knowledge. If you have a few dollars to donate, please support in honor of her 50th birthday.

Ryan is a fellow local committee member and did all the work setting up the ActBlue stuff. Ryan is smart! Ryan is wise!

Almost 3K has been raised so far! It would be so great to reach that $5000 goal well before Jenn's actual birthday! Please read through her thread to hear her share her goals for when 😁 she is elected. Please consider making a donation, each and every amount helps! And please repost! Thank you!

Yet agin, Trump throws out shiny metal object to divert attention of the American People & MSM from his real problems, BS & scams Trump’s latest trick is order to U.S. Veterans Administration allows medical doctors to refuse to treat Democrats or marital status www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

A big shout out to physicist Hertha Ayrton, who used her knowledge of fluid dynamics to develop this method for combatting gas attacks 110 years ago! #WomenInSTEM

I'm sorry but they'll have to do a lot better than FOMO to get me to use ChatGPT. 😆

Hi friends! Let’s meet for a meal in Chicago next week! I arrive Sun & leave Wed evening. When is good for you? @tjmath.bsky.social @annieforest.bsky.social @mfannie.bsky.social @sueoconnellmath.bsky.social @howiehua.bsky.social @jodyguarino.bsky.social @zakchamp.bsky.social #ElemMathChat #MTBoS

My Bluesky feed just gave me an all-timer:

Use these words correctly. Democrats and Republicans Democratic Party and Republican Party There is no "Democrat Party" or "Republic Party" If you hear this, the person is doing it on purpose to delegitimize the party they are saying wrong, or they've heard it wrong so many times and don't know.

My mom wanted to wear her mask (which I’ve had to beg her to wear when she’s been sick/exposed to COVID) to the protests yesterday. I asked her not to wear it for political reasons and to actually wear a mask for what it’s intended for.

This was my biggest takeaway from yesterday in LA. Did you drop something? Someone will pick it up for you. Don’t know which train to take? Someone will guide you. Backpack open? Someone will tell you. Need anything at all? Someone is willing to share. Everyone was SO nice and helpful and FRIENDLY

Last episode of #PokerFace. Is that Rose from 2.5 Men??

See where your flights will increase this climate-fueled turbulence

She repeats to herself each morning.

Did you remember to bring yourself along?

I'm loving all the videos of yesterday's protest but especially this wedding party that decided to join in

Part of why I am so upset that despite my efforts to focus entirely on process, I have students who never attended my classes showing up now wanting to be given "all the work"

I keep saying this, but again want to emphasize… When we only “reward” the end product instead of the process of learning, this is the result. The process is what’s important, and we learn as much, if not more, from a failed product as a successful one. (Also, please just read a book.)

Listen to Michelle.

Just received this encouraging update from Senator Hoffman's wife, Yvette, on their recovery in the hospital. Grateful for their progress and will continue to keep them in our prayers.

This is the type of father's day story that warms my heart

Toiletries and beauty products are the worst. 🤬 I use a Sharpie and mark mine with big letters so I can see what they are when I’m in the shower or at the sink.

The MAGAs melting down in exurb and small town fb groups over the local No Kings protest yesterday has been a delight to see

I don't know Jenn personally, but I have been inspired by her work for years. I know she can win and her community will be better for it, so I made my little donation today.

There are a couple of kids in my nephews's class who weren't born in the US, and the class has decided (w/o teacher input) that if ICE shows up in they're all going to pretend not to speak English. 10yos reinventing "I am Spartacus" because they don't want their friends to get disappeared.

It is a disconcerting day but I am half-way to my goal and more determined than ever to take an oath of office this November.

For No Kings Day, a throwback to @askhistorians.bsky.social's election Meta post: "[Isadore Greenbaum] represented what everyone should strive to be: an obstacle, however small and seemingly inconsequential, in the path of fascism." www.reddit.com/r/AskHistori...

I am LEGIT excited that I have an excuse to buy another pack of thank you cards. About to cross the halfway point and I have peopled more this weekend than I've peopled in a very long time.

Well over a dozen stories into the paper’s scroll this morning, and yesterday’s historic protests get half a headline.
