as a teacher of queer students, my heart is breaking. just a few weeks ago one of my students had the courage to tell me she's transitioning. the road she is going to walk just got so much harder. these kids are bright and funny and insightful, they are the best of us. and we're punishing them.

still laughing at the trade review that said my book was a "rollicking good time" when the sequel is full of lines like this

hello, i am feeling overwhelmed by the absolute trainwreck that is our public education system because what do you mean i have 6th graders who can't read cvc words or write a legible sentence but the district and the state are like "no more special education resources for you, figure it out bitch!!"

another thought on the ed sheeran thing—"i have my own thoughts on genocide but i'm not sharing them" is one of the most blatantly cowardly things i've seen someone say in a hot minute. good artists cannot and should not be apolitical therefore: ed sheeran is not a good artist.

It’s a surreal feeling, holding my book in my hands! (It’s a lot longer than I thought it would be.) My first ARC came and I’m absolutely stunned. It’s a real book! With words and pages and everything!

I am required by my school system to pull my own measles vaccine record to keep on file in case we have an outbreak in our county this year. We had trainings on how to spot measles last year. MEASLES. This shit is disgusting. Vaccinate your fucking kids.

Just saw a graphic from a groundbreaking study stating that kids who used AI on assignments tended to score better and spend less time on homework, but then do worse on the exams. Wow, if only I had like, a grain of common sense to help me understand this!!

You played the recorder in part to strengthen your fine motor skills and in part to introduce you to basic music theory concepts like rhythm, the C-major scale, and reading basic music notes. Your teachers wanted to make elementary music education available to all, not just the rich.
Threads post "And then for no reason, no reason at all, they made us all learn how to play the recorder"

Art tip: don't share everything you draw. Draw things you never intend to show anyone. Your brain needs time to just exist in a state that's not about performing for strangers. This used to be the normal way to exist before social media poisoned us.

Nathalie and Danny are some of my favorite people and some of the greatest writers I know. Danny does FREE zoom calls with my students to teach them about the joy of writing comics. If you want good art in this capitalist hellscape, we have to work together to keep each other housed. ❤️
