Last week in Chimo, Mexico whale watching from our casitas.

Thankful for all MLK did for our country. Thankful MLK Day is a holiday for most. Thankful I didn’t have to show the inauguration to my high school students today.

Robert Reich has it right.

Netflix nailed it when they made House of Cards. I felt it in 2016, and feel it again in 2025–we’re living it. Worth a watch or rewatch.

Anyone watch Landman? I just started yesterday and caught up today. One of my dad’s murals appeared briefly in episode 4–pretty cool to see!

Most of my new followers are either fake country singers or girls with onlyfans—just me or is this a thing now?

Just saw this on Instagram, and it is now my new favorite week: Happy Airport Rules Week www.instagram.com/reel/DELXrDQ...

Could two followers please copy and re-post this tweet to show that someone is always there? National Suicide Prevention Hotline Call: 0800 689 5652 (UK) 1-800-273-8255 (USA) 1.833.456.4566 (Canada)

It’s a rainy, gloomy 60-ish degree day in north Texas, but I love sitting in a dim room with the glow of the Christmas lights. Merry Christmas Eve 🎄

‘Tis the season as a high school teacher 😬

Exactly

Folks, do me a HUGE favor: Please re-post this and follow @reallyamerican.bsky.social so that we're at full strength as we enter the next critical phase in mounting our opposition to trump's cruel, oppressive agenda. Please and thank you! 🙏💪

The day America decided to ignore Jared Kushner's $2 billion from the Saudis, and put an insurrection-inciting convicted felon back in the White House, is the day I stopped giving a shit about any "moral high ground." I hope President Biden takes his "presidential immunity" out for a fucking spin.

I don’t understand why people attempt to denigrate Hallmark Christmas films by referring to them as “too cheesy”, as if that is a bad thing? I mean, have you *had* cheese? It’s not exactly the insult that you think it is.

Trump has named Charles Kushner, father of Jared Kushner, as ambassador to France. The elder Kushner once pleaded guilty to tax evasion and making illegal campaign contributions. Trump pardoned him in 2020. “L’état, c’est moi,” as the saying goes. Here you go, France. A nepo criminal!

Forgive me if this is petty but the next account I’d like to surpass here on Bluesky is CNN. They helped normalize Trump at every turn and did nothing to help tell the truth about Kamala. Time to show them what we think. Can you RT this and follow us if you haven’t. 💙🙏

Looking for something fun and light to watch? I highly recommend.

Trump: 5 kids from 3 women -- cheated on them all Hegseth: 7 kids from 3 women -- cheated on them all Musk: 11 kids from 3 women -- cheated on them all And all three men—credibly accused of rape & sexual abuse—are lecturing us about conservative & strong family values? The hypocrisy is the point.

I like it.

I put this little Lego library in my classroom—the only books that won’t get banned this year.

New here after deactivating Twitter. Needed a place to get info on the good, bad, and ugly going on in the world without the ugly people over there. Tried to remember everyone whose a posts resonated with me to follow here and enjoying seeing you all here (even though I know none of you). 🥰
