I taught 1st grade for 20 years but now I aid and abet the teachers' union. Vegetarian, but genuinely try not to be annoying about it. In Illinois - but not Chicago, one of the small town parts.

Department Of Education Sternly Announces It Is Counting To 3

This is bonkers. They're barely surviving around here and now this? These vegetarians won't be giving them our dollars anymore. RIP to drive thru Steak n Shake fries and shakes for us. I have of course, already lodged my complaints on their contact form.

At least we don’t have to waste time during this Trump presidency pointing out hypocrisy because the entire Republican Party has taken the public position: “We want you to die, and we love sex criminals!” There’s no “saying the quiet part out loud” when the people in charge are this shameless!

If DOGE wants to root out "waste, fraud and abuse" in the healthcare area re: Medicaid, how about they cut out the wasteful, price gouging mafia middlemen in between us and our doctors, the insurance companies, and make Americans' healthcare entirely self funding with one payer?

Gettin pretty mad there are elections I don't get to vote in today. Love giving my opinion on issues and stuff.

this is what we're doing? soliciting non-binding petitions? that's what Democrats think is what ought to be done to prevent the illegal elimination of a federal department?

How about our conditions for the federal government to continue receiving our taxes?

This is what I was just asking out loud here a min ago but much more coherent.

Our heart belongs to public schools because they’re where every student can learn, grow, and thrive. Sending love to the educators and support staff who make it all possible. ❤️ #ValentinesDay

Hot dog colored skin; so hot rn

Props to their Membership folks working to get their new members enrolled quickly! #Solidarity

when faced with a world uncaring and bleak a portion of the citizens of this nation looked out and said “everything would be better if we were meaner and dumber”

Once again, if you are a member of Congress fixated on doing performative bullshit, at least perform. Enter those buildings. Jesus F Christ how hard is this?

Crazy to get fired for the same reason you were hired in the first place

Maybe if we tell them there’s a student encampment inside the White House democrats will spring to action.

Getting tickets Friday to go see @thebandcake.bsky.social by the ocean (the Illinois River)! And I just found my ticket stub from when I saw them at the Madison Theater 20+ years ago the other day.

Yes

@cpsc.gov is my Valentine this year because they emailed to let us know that our smoke detectors had been recalled and we wouldn't have otherwise known! 💖

I feel like i owe everyone apology. Not about anything specific thats just how i feel 100% of the time

Yes, same 😍

"When people come for our kids, our professions, and our communities, we fight like hell." Trump's reckless attacks on public schools and working families won't go unanswered. NEA members are organizing, mobilizing, and demanding action. Read the full story here: bit.ly/4hESrtX

I guess I'm too woke because I find the proliferation of this really off-putting and gross. The fact that it's now reached the "enlightened centrists" class is depressing.

I regret to inform myself that we are in fact going to have to go in these streets :(

Don’t spend your money at businesses that bow to authoritarians. Make these small acts of resistance every day.

the ai sloppification of the world will only end if organizations stand up for artists like this. this is another great reason to unionize your workplace as you can include NO AI ART in your work contract

david lynch loves you
