What an unimaginably ghoulish outlook. In a rational world, this would be disqualifying. "Darline Graham’s vision, it seems, holds that because her own parents worked so hard, couldn’t take sick days, and died untimely deaths, others shouldn’t expect anything different."

Do you want to know how popular school vouchers are? They have never won on a ballot. Not once. In any state. Ever. The only way states are able pass a school voucher scheme is behind closed doors. Legislatively. The people would never approve their tax dollars going to private religious schools.

Trump approved disaster aid requests from six red states last week. Two days later, he rejected aid requests from four blue states. Not only is he punishing states who didn’t vote for him, he’s playing politics with people’s lives. Despicable.

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage. The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.” It’s about control.

Since then, I've had other admin roles that have taken up nearly as much of my time in terms of service. Again, I don't regret those things - they were good things and I'm proud of the work I did. But it also left me feeling like butter spread across too much bread.

Andrew Pyle @aspyle.bsky.social · 20/01/2026

but I do regret that burnout that followed. I'm not sure what I could have done differently, but in hindsight I'm sure there were a lot of things that could've helped minimize that overload experience. @adamgrant.bsky.social published a great piece on languishing in 2021 that really resonated.
