In my [REDACTED] year of #iteachmath. The way I teach ≠ the way I was taught. Wondering if #mtbos should now be #mbbos. May also find me talking about photography, the outdoors, traveling, sports, SF, & hanging with my kids. Not necessarily in that order.

Dear OPM FOIA staff - Remember to preserve all of these email responses, as we will be submitting FOIA requests for this consolidated compilation of information on what the entire federal government did last week. Thx - FOIA community

DOGE killed TNTP’s grant to prepare teachers in Austin, Baltimore, and Clark County Call your elected officials!

This entire article is intended to gather sympathy for someone who inherited $13M worth of property and now has to pay taxes on said property. 🎻 "She inherited her mom’s San Francisco properties. Now, it’s landed her in financial limbo" www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/emil...

If you teach middle school mathematics and have any multilingual students, we would like to invite you to participate in a study. Participants will receive a $2,000 stipend each year! Let me know if you have any questions! #iteachmath #mtbos

Dear Mr. President, I am a teacher who works at a school. Please Venmo me $1,000,000 so I can replace all the maps with Real American Maps, or as I like to call them RAMS. That may seem like a lot for maps, but I've heard maps are expensive because of Joe Biden.

Clearly Alabama should have been selected for the Super bowl instead of KC.

Breast cancer too.

Gonna' be harder to "knock out" cancer without the NIH.

Do you think it is rude to ask an account on here if they are a real person (vs an AI bot)? Like, can I Turing Test an account before engaging with them? (this is not a subskeet)

The only upside of the pusillanimous, toothless letter put out by the American Mathematical Society in response to illegal actions taken by a governmental coup is that I found some new peeps on Bluesky to follow.

About to watch the first episode of Prime Target. My expectations are very low, but I can't pass up a math thriller.

Spent the morning with ~20 math teachers learning from @mmanes.bsky.social about Hawaiian Star Navigation and connections to geometric constructions as part of the San Francisco Math Teacher circle I help run. 👍👍

There's a fine line between empowering students to believe that they can become an expert in anything and teaching students to be humble enough to recognize that they will never be an expert in everything.

Shouldn't the function arcsec(csc x) be undefined at x=0? Am I missing something mathy here, or is this a @desmos.com "bug"? ♾️

Not too worried about that drive. Go Buckeyes!
