Sam Vimes @atuinturtle.bsky.social · 21/05/2025It feels good to have the two younger directors that have been criticizing me take a moment to acknowledge I’m a good band director that knows what I’m doing. 000
Sam Vimes @atuinturtle.bsky.social · 21/04/2025I am playing Bloodborne for the first time and I just found the executioner in Yarnham. I will kill him before I progress the game further. I already got him down to one hit left three times. #gaming #Bloodborne 000
Sam Vimes @atuinturtle.bsky.social · 16/04/2025Today was an example of why you don’t give up. My Spanish speaking 7th grader was finally able to read and play up to five notes on her saxophone today. That’s a great lesson to end my day on. #BandDirector 000

Sam Vimes @atuinturtle.bsky.social · 03/04/2025@thebanddirector.bsky.social what is your “ok this isn’t a band kid and I should help them exit.” criteria? I just had a 6th grader in tears that has been “trying to drop” and I finally asked my principal if I can do a dont recommend they continue drop. She hasn’t retained a thing in two years now. 100
Sam Vimes @atuinturtle.bsky.social · 30/03/2025It’s ranked Saturday on #MarvelRivals today I crossed from gold to plat 3 in just two games. 010
Sam Vimes @atuinturtle.bsky.social · 22/03/2025Another rank climbed in #MarvelRivals because it’s competitive Saturday. I just hit gold 1 mainly because I refused to surrender on a domination map. We got hammered the first round and we wrecked shop the next two. We had two surrender requests. 020

Sam Vimes @atuinturtle.bsky.social · 15/03/2025It’s ranked play Saturday on #MarvelRivals again today. I just hit gold 2 and today actually felt easier than normal had a draw on my first game because one of us disconnected but otherwise all wins today. I could hit diamond before end of season.

If your band receives an Excellent rating, celebrate your band. If your band receives a Good rating, celebrate your band. If your band showed up… If your band worked… If your band grew… If your band performed… Celebrate your band. 1303
Sam Vimes @atuinturtle.bsky.social · 02/03/2025Another Saturday another rank climbed. I’m now silver 1 in #MarvelRivals I only play competitive on Saturdays so climbing a rank one day a week feels pretty good. 110

Sam Vimes @atuinturtle.bsky.social · 21/02/2025Band director confession time. I never listen to concert band or classical music for enjoyment. I will listen to jazz, but I mostly listen to Lawrence, Lake Street Dive, and Tiny Desk Concerts. #BandDirector #MusicEducation 020
Sam Vimes @atuinturtle.bsky.social · 16/02/2025I only play comp one day a week. Four days, four hours, and I’m out of bronze I’m still getting a lot of points for wins so the algorithm thinks I should be much higher. #MarvelRivals 010
Sam Vimes @atuinturtle.bsky.social · 09/02/2025Two saturdays, about 3 total hours, I have reached bronze 1 in Marvel Rivals. I’m just taking my time and trying to learn all roles so I can be the most useful to my teams. #MarvelRivals 000
