Thank you @altnps.bsky.social for explaining what things mean for those of us who aren’t legalese-literate!

A doctoral candidate I have the privilege of supporting is looking for educators who have worked under traumatic leadership. If you’re an educator who has had this experience, please complete her survey: lnkd.in/eCv6Sxhw Please share this post so that teachers are heard!!

www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb... So a stationary store in Florida is suing Trump over the tariffs. Maybe we all might need some new paper?

Please help, if you can! I’m already providing support at another TDOV event during that time or I’d be there.

This is seriously such an amazing tool. St. Louis City has also started using it for their soccer games. Two teams I love both doing really cool things

Yep

We discussed this a lot when trump insisted he declassified all the shit he stole with his mind.

Local Indivisible member was abducted by ICE in Washington. If you're in the state, please elevate this thread to your electeds and ask for their help in getting his release.

@hoyer.house.gov As one of your constituents, I want to hear your thoughts and plan of action regarding Hegseth et al. Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you.

The amount of times Kash Patel mentioned Tribal lands bordering the Canadian border has me nervous.

A Pentagon-wide advisory that went out one week ago warns against using the Signal, the messaging app, even for unclassified information.

It wasn’t a “leak” ffs. A leak is when someone intentionally shares information with someone. This was negligence.

Get in loser- we’re frolicking in the garden and painting rocks.

www.k12dive.com/news/trump-m... So iep services will now be considered medical services? I’m well-versed in ece, but would love to hear from folks more in the special education realm. RFK’s stance of adhd meds makes this sound cataclysmic. #edusky #specialeducation

Honest question: How does Canada 🇨🇦 feel about American tourism (especially around Halifax)? Husband and I have always wanted to go and can’t think of a place that we want to support more, but can understand if it would seem insulting/tone deaf. Thanks!

According to DisabilityJustice.org, 83% of disabled women will be sexually abused in their lifetime. You must include disabled women in your conversations about choice and reproductive rights. I’m included in that percentage. Please think about us.

Sunbeam naps are the best naps.

Ah the first yard clean up of the spring! Used fallen branches and mushroomed logs to create a border around the back bed. The opening salvo of the season!!!! #gardensky 🌱

www.edweek.org/policy-polit... As a trauma-informed practice advocate and researcher, this should terrify everyone. Of particular horror, culturally responsive teaching is now being called discrimination. Equity is truly (and explicitly in this article) being mangled into an evil thing.

Ways to show up for our libraries: -Get a library card -Regularly visit your library -Use library services -Donate books -Attend library events -Become a library “friend” -Purchase their merch or from their book sales -Volunteer

The unconscionable Republican CR cut $1 billion in funding for D.C. – funds that have literally already been paid for by D.C. residents. So we introduced a bill tonight to ensure that D.C. receives the tax dollars it is owed. The Senate just passed it.

If Senate Democrats vote to advance this spending bill, it will give me great pleasure to donate to and campaign for the Democrats running against them in the next election. Now is the time to show your strength in unity not your compliance. The American people need you. @senatedem.bsky.social
