It's going to be 50 degrees (the highs) in Jersey this upcoming week and because it's been so damn frigid lately, i think this is flip flip weather.

I dropped the ball. So, in no particular order, here are 18-20. “Choose 20 books that have stayed with you or influenced you. One book per day for 20 days, in no particular order. No explanations, no reviews, just covers!” #books #booksky #reading #bookchallenge #bannedbooks #read 18-20

If you are spouting out "be happy" statements in 2025, while the world is crashing down around us (especially in academia, where i exist) check your DAMN PRIVILEGE. The world is exploding around us and some of us can't be happy all the damn time.

Teaching in 2025 is no easy feat. AI papers, plagiarism, non- responsive students, and nowadays, I'm getting a lot of counterarguments or emails about not wanting to do the assignment. I'm not sure what to do about any of this. (One student told me the book was wrong) #teaching

Just in case anyone was wondering, an RSVP, by definition, requires the possibility of a no. #officepolitics

Here's hoping America follows this philosophy. Make marriage a worthy institution. Telling me to let the man control all of it is a solid no.

Super Bowl lesson: Stopping an arrogant Chief from a third term is probably a good move for America right now.

And the final nail in America's coffin happens. Trump is trying to get rid of oor eliminate most of the Department of Education. A less educated society is what they want, and it's what they will get, and then...boom goes America. #departmentofeducation #DOE
