We hate kids. Like SO MUCH. We vote for the guns. We vote for the bombs. We protect the rapists. We have LEOs physically restraining parents from trying to save their children in Uvalde. We just blew up a school in Iran. We love Jeffrey Epstein and his friends. They run the country.

Students “had outsourced that level of thinking…” “couldn't always discern whether what AI generated was valuable or not… “and they still needed to build foundational skills…” @heymrsbond.com asks the essential question (my caps): “WHERE ARE THOSE SKILLS GOING TO BE BUILT IF NOT HERE?" 💯💯💯

I'm pro-union because I think workers should organize to balance the power that business owners have in various negotiations. It's true that unions have been weakened, but it's not because of multiculturalism. I would argue, it's because people seek to exploit divisions for their material interests.

A cartoon showing a man between a white construction worker and a black man. He points to the black man and says "Careful mate ... that foreigner wants your cookie" The man in the middle has a plate full of cookies; the construction worker has one cookie; the black man has no cookies.

They created a traumatic, violent situation outside a MoCo middle school a couple of weeks ago. My student’s grandmother was deported 2 days ago. One of my students and her family stayed indoors all summer b/c they were afraid to go outside. @vanhollen.senate.gov @alsobrooks.senate.gov #AbolishIce

Reading is more than pronouncing words. Writing is more than producing simulations for the purpose of a grade. These things have been OBVIOUS for well over a decade and yet the systems that want to rank, sort, and track, rather than engage and develop students ignore this reality.

I just... like... the world's governments are condoning the deliberate starvation and slaughter of actual people, who definitely can and do suffer, and we're wondering whether a very fancy autocomplete can feel anguish? This is not just stupid; it is systematic dehumanisation of us all.

Press coverage of the starvation in Gaza can leave the impression that the hunger is an organic disaster, a side-effect of war that is too complicated to fully explain. But famine is easily preventable, and this one has been orchestrated with the increasing complicity of the United States.

Alex de Waal: "this is famine... what is unique about this one is that the intl agencies are standing by with the capacity, the plans.. and they're not being allowed to implement those plans. If Netanyahu wanted every child in Gaza to have breakfast tomorrow, he could do it"

These New York City mayoral results, so far, are both incredibly inspiring and a middle finger spectacularly extended at a bunch of people who could not deserve it more.

Excuse me @npr.org: “troops remain in place protecting federal buildings” (in LA) Protecting who? From what? Stop accepting / promoting ridiculous premises & framing - LA did not want or need troops, and ICE, 47, and Republicans caused the damage and violence.

So, maybe start by getting a sense of their knowledge gaps--what they don't feel they can confidently do well on their own. Then, help them fill those gaps while reassuring them that they don't have to be perfect, and that more practice is the best way to build confidence in what they can do.

CALLS ARE WORKING - it has bought us precious time, but we NEED to keep the pressure up. Tomorrow is the cloture vote. KEEP CALLING: (202) 224-3121 ☎️☎️☎️ Tell your Dem Senator to vote NO on Cloture and NO on the Republican spending bill. Do NOT assume your Senator will be good on this. Trust me.
