that hitler was a fucking coward in the end is one of those details that his contemporary worshippers like to ignore

lol the "shock" around Coogler's deal boils down to two things: 1) Racism. Hollywood doesn't think Black people deserve ownership deals like this. 2) Coogler just set a new precedent for Black creatives that will be hard to ignore considering the success of #Sinners.

Children as young as *four* are being put in the position of representing themselves without lawyers/parents present in front of immigration judges in cases that will determine whether they are deported. gothamist.com/news/4-year-...

Our schedule changed and therefore my routine changed and thus I had to spend the day convincing my nervous system that we are not in danger just because classes are at a slightly later time that usual.

One of the perks of being an awesome teacher is that sometimes the kids go home and brag to their parents who happen to be in professions such as dentistry and then said parents adds you to the “family and friends” package so you get free dental work.

Rip Chief Pontiac, Odawa leader, died this day 1769. "They came with a Bible and their religion, stole our land, and crushed our spirit, and now tell us we should be thankful to the Lord for being saved."

Letter from Dem Senator Chris Van Hollen (MD) requesting a meeting with Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele To discuss MD father Kilmar Abrego Garcia's return "If Kilmar is not home by midweek – I plan to travel to El Salvador this week to check on his condition and discuss his release."

Student made me a gender fluid bracelet. 🥰

Just saw an ad for sunglasses that go over your prescription glasses. Usually I’m all for sponsored content and people getting their bag but I have my limits.

What is exceptionally wild to me is that a company can use your credit score and history as a deciding factor on potential employment. How tf is that a thing

I think I could be weirder. It could use a little work.

The acting head of the Internal Revenue Service resigned after the Treasury Department and Homeland Security reached an agreement to share tax data from some immigrants living in the country without legal status. (via @wbur.org)

Current repetitive vocal stim is to go “bow bow” like Blue from Blue’s Clues.

It’s been 48 hours without my vape and I’m ABOUT TO LOSE IT. Nicotine is a helluva drug man

The author of this piece is an American photo journalist who has been embedded in El Salvador. Reading this piece is frightening and it should be. It's who we are in danger of becoming. time.com/7269604/el-s...

One of my favorite things is I have a friend who has TWO DEGREES in TRAINS and was completely shocked when he was diagnosed as autistic.

If anyone ever wonders why I am so strange I’d like to reference the phone call I just had with my father, mere moments ago: this man calls in a panic and asks what the difference between innocence and ignorance is. It’s like he’s constantly receiving riddles from the gods and needs my input

A little MFDOOM & Scifi 🗣️

black student enrollment at the university of virginia barely cracks 7 percent and that is too much for glenn youngkin and his toadies www.baconsrebellion.com/uva-board-di...

One of the (many) reasons I don’t play teamfight games is because it raises my anxiety to heights I never thought possible. But here I am, playing Marvel Rivals, shaking and about to throw up.

If you’d like to enjoy some general shenanigans this morning, I highly recommend putting in some false reports for the end DEI form here: enddei.ed.gov Have fun!

I’ll say one thing. Bark Box still has the only toys my dog cannot destroy. Bless the super chewer

This whole country wants bad things for others more than they want good things for themselves.

🔥 CROCKETT: “Facts matter.”

The Revolution will be AI-icized

I finished Parable of the Sower a few days ago. Still thinking about it. Still convinced that is where we are headed.

It’s me. I’m the teacher radicalizing your kids. I’m quite good at it, actually.

Applying for jobs in Edtech currently. Had my first application that requested self identification of sexual identity. 🙃

Even the most disturbing RFK Jr. headline always manages to have a detail inside creepier than you could have imagined. I’m sorry, did you just say Black kids should have a chance to get “re-parented”???? Gift link wapo.st/4hW2xGI

Anytime my students pull the “why are we learning this?” Card I always say “because stupid people are easy to manipulate. Would you like to be easily manipulated?”

Woke up to a call from my bank that there was fraudulent activity on my card. I have no money. I am not the one to go for; you’ve wasted your time.

Sometimes when I don’t have meetings or a ton of things to do… I get to bring my dog to work. For the record, the thing he has on his face is a “gentle leader” and not a muzzle, like most people think.

truly amazing seeing the "allies" speaking up for people with severe mental illness by warning everybody that we'll go batshit mass murderous off of meds, compared to people with it terrified of suicide and losing hard-earned stability, careers, relationships, and hope

My husband subs at my school occasionally and unfortunately for us we are very good educators and the children love us. Which in turn means that we get SWARMED by a hundred middle schoolers every passing period.

I deleted TT right during the initial ban and therefore lost all my book/reading content like the buffoon that I am. I’d really like to find another place to curate books recs and a reading community again. If you’re a reader, please interact so I can follow you!

It’s fun starting a new hobby with ADHD because I never know if I’ve found a new lifelong passion or if I’m going to spend $2000 on stuff and immediately lose all interest

‘You Can’t Let This Happen,’ Says Fundraising Email From Sitting U.S. Congressperson

Got my first rejection. Which is still a good thing because at least I’ve heard back from *someone*

I do not watch sports ball of any kind but I am so confused why Rocket is creating adverts about their superbowl advert? It’s cringey and fucking weird.

honestly this shit makes me furious. let kids read whatever the fuck format they want either it’ll lead to them wanting to read more prose or it won’t but either way at least they enjoyed reading something?? also?? comics can be extremely hard-hitting??? i am untethered and my rage knows no bounds
