My AP Seminar classes are doing their PT1 presentations and one group researched DeSantis Edu policies. They got a question from a student “what if I don’t want my kid learning about race and gender?” The reply, “I’ll ask you why you don’t want your kid learning different perspectives”

I don’t know about you but the fact that the Edmund Fitzgerald canonically sank in the #Severance universe makes me sad. But it’s nice to know Gordon Lightfoot also existed in the Severance universe.

Some of my students are showing me a history project they are doing on the French Revolution. They made an old time news paper set during the period, but put the Eiffel Tower on it. I said “Oh I totally forgot the song in Les Mis about the Eiffel Tower” and they were confused.

Finally scanned all 8 rolls from this years Rolex 24. Shot some Phoenix and Fuji 200. #believeinfilm #Rolex24 #daytona www.flickr.com/gp/jack_macd...

Ok but do we need to have flair

For the past 3 days I’ve gotten a pair of dress socks from 3 different students with the message “happy birthday”. My birthday is 18 days away, am I going to get socks everyday? Why socks? I’m so confused. And I know they are doing this to confuse me and it’s working!

I have the same rotation of dress shirts, slacks, and ties I’ve had for years but today I let me girlfriend pick them out for work and immediately all the women complimented my look when I’ve never gotten any comments before. It’s almost like they looked at me and thought “a girl put that together”

Solid #Rolex24 (glad it was a full 24). Watched the last 2 hours of racing from grandstands above turn 1, amazing stuff. Went through 8 rolls of color film over the 19 hours I was there. Will share those when I get them processed and I scan them.

Taught my algebra 2 lesson quick so I could turn this on only for a crash first lap. Students were entertained and disappointed the Kachow! Car got wrecked.

My students have been keeping a quote book of things I say. Apparently, one day when they were complaining about some rule I said, “if you are unhappy you can go throw some tea in the retention pond outside” Proud of that one.

Every #MX-5 cup race. The superior spec car series. #imsa

Spent the day with a lovely human teaching her film photography and going on nature walks then watching one of my favorite movies (Good Will Hunting). Didn’t check my phone once. Maybe later this week I’ll pay attention to some news. But I needed today.

Uploading my recent Phoenix exploration unedited to give you the full vibes of this film. My verdict; it's fun. But it's also tricky. I shot it at 125. Incredibly different than any other film out there but you have to be perfect, or lucky. I feel like it was designed for golden hour. #believeinfilm

I’ve been to the last several Rolex 24’s, but some friends back in CT (who have never been to a race but love racing) are flying down to go to this years edition. I cannot wait to see their first reactions to being in Daytona’s infield at the horseshoes. Told them we have to stay the night as well.
