Pro Tip for those of us using the 5 Calls App: Put your senator and reps in your phone contacts, with BOTH of their offices (DC & home). 5 calls only has their DC offices, and when that mailbox is full, I just go to my contacts and call their home/local office instead. Easy peasy lemon squeezy! <3

How much is Congress cutting from their $6.5 billion/year budget? Don’t you think congress can operate on say, maybe, $5 Billion? And each congressman has 18 staff, they could operate on say, 14? What about the White House?

All members of Congress swore allegiance to the Constitution. They didn't ask just Democrats to defend America against all enemies. The house is on fire, y'all. I'll do everything I can to extinguish that flame, but I am begging my Republican colleagues to remember their oath.

1972. The “I love you” at the end gets me every time…

I was thinking about citations and decided to build a SchoolAI Space to help with MLA and APA citations. It includes how to even cite AI use! Check it out here! www.thenerdyteacher.com/2025/02/cita... #SchoolAI #AIinEdu #EduSkyAI #EduSky

I have many regrets about Earth, but making humans in a wide range of colors, shapes, and temperaments is not one of them. Celebrate thy diversity. Love each other.

Miserable at home with the flu. Got to finally watch the Six Triple Eight. It was so good! Also finished Alice in Borderland which was wonderfully weird.

Tomorrow I plan to go to school and teach the way I taught today & the day before that & the day before that. Respecting the students in my room means knowing their names & how they choose to be addressed. Respecting my content means teaching the truth. Respecting my families means I don’t…

What shouldn't be missing from the headlines on the new NAEP scores: "The overwhelming majority (77%) of... the wealthiest kids — performed above the national average in reading..in the lowest SES category, though, the results are nearly flipped, with just 34%...above the national average."

Educators: We have to steel ourselves against the urge to consume everything, everywhere, all at once. The next four years are going to be long and hard; some of us will not make it. Protect your heart. Protect your peace. Protect the children.

This is why public schools are so important. While they are not perfect, they help us work towards equality in education.

Enjoying the History Channel this morning. Just watched a documentary on the Tuskegee Airmen. Up next the 761st Tank Battalion. The first Black tank unit that fought during WWII. Then spending time with my family. #MLKDay

"California paid in a lot more [to the federal government] than it got back — $83 billion in total. So did Washington state and much of the Northeast. Most red states were in the reverse position, getting much more from DC than they paid in return."
