I love The Kadin and read it every couple of years. The Woodiwiss books are also pretty great!

One of my dear friends grew up with Chelsea, and it has been heartbreaking to see her impact through my friend’s eyes.

Thank you for sharing. She was phenomenal.

That comment right there- that is why I love you Internet stranger.

As a teacher, the thou of her as the Ed Sec scares the bejeezus out of me. She, and her husband, are garbage human beings.

Thank you for sharing this story. It is a part of our history that we are too happy to forget. I remember going to the Oakland Museum of California and seeing the replica of an internment room. It was emotionally overwhelming and spurred me to learn more about the internment.

It was so perfect.

Yesterday was really, really hard. I pulled into the parking lot and witnessed a student being told “now that Trump is in Washington, you have to go back to Mexico.” It was addressed immediately and yet, the offender repeated the behavior later in the day.

I taught preschool for 6 years and could barely afford to live. I was late on my bills most months, and could not afford to pay back my student loans. I eventually had to leave a field that I loved so that I could get back on track. Childcare is expensive and quality care should not be exclusive to people of means.…

She’s got an hour on the weekends, but deserves so much more.

This made me so god damned happy this morning. It was a long ass week and I needed something like this. Bruno Mars is the gift that keeps on giving.

I’m lucky to have a husband with a good job who was willing to shoulder the load while I went back to school. We’ll be paying off my loans for decades, but I do truly love what I do. I wish that the credentialing process wasn’t so expensive, and that the jobs were better funded. There are some amazing potential…

This teacher appreciates it. We need more Meghan Hollingsworths in the world, and I worry that politics are chasing them away.

I am 99% sure that the guy feeding the goat is an old co-worker of mine.

You name is everything to me right now.

Oh sweet baby Jesus! Thank you for bringing back Shade Court! Watching the master of shade last night was just perfection. This was the icing on the shade cake!

Amen. Let’s not forget that police officers sign up for the job KNOWING full well what the risks are. I feel bad for their families, but that is part of the job. You are literally putting your life on the line daily. Black families didn’t sign up for this, they were put into this position by a system that was designed…

I have a student who competes in rythmic, and I know that I will be seeing her in the 2024 Olympics. The kid is 10 and amazing.

This statement breaks my heart. As an educator, we need MORE people like Mr. Phil in our education system. He is the type of person I would have encouraged to become a teacher because we lack people of color, and especially men of color in our school system. If we had more representation in ALL of our schools, it…

Sweet! They play our local team, so I can see them!!! I love small-town baseball!
