L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Does anyone out there teaching video journalism to middle or HS kids? I would love some lesson plans on editing. Using iPads and iMovie. 010
L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Guy in front of me asked the owners of the donut shop if they were Mexican(they are Filipino) because “ain’t everyone in California from Mexico?” I feel like I should carry history books and a map of the world with me everywhere I go. The failure of the American education system is stunning. 150
L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 19/09/2026As I transitioned into public education last year the imposter syndrome was real. It takes time to build that subject knowledge. I’ve been a librarian for years and can research for days. Teaching 8th graders video journalism this year has me searching far and wide for material that doesn’t suck. 041
L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 14/09/2026I noticed that the ads in both RDU and Newark airports were overwhelmingly sponsored by AI companies. I guess they are trying to catch the business travelers because Gam Gam from Des Moines isn’t in their demographic. 000
L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Saw my first K-pop show last night. I’ve been to hundreds of shows and this was one of the best I’ve seen. BigBang might not be as big as BTS but they sold out MetLife Stadium and had the crowd going from the start. 031

L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Good news to share! I landed a job as the Media Coordinator at a brand new middle school in the area. In addition to my librarian duties, I’m teaching an elective on digital journalism. Any suggestions on how to teach journalism? 🙃 seriously… help 7315
L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 29/08/2026I am devastated, as is my family. Meowser was our little, well not so little guy. He greeted us at the front door, knew when it was bed time and would crawl on our bed and loved being around us. I’ve never felt grief like this. It will get better, but right now a piece of me is missing and I’m sad. 370

L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 25/08/2026I wish I had kept my sons letter from Dolly when he graduated out of the Imagination Library. She was such a good person. She actually cared about people. It wasn’t an act. 020
L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 21/08/2026So I got my wife tickets to see BigBang in NJ in September. I wasn’t the biggest fan but after watching clips from their first show back today, I am pumped. Having worked as a tour manager in a past life, the production geek in me is so excited. They put on a hell of a show. 020
L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 20/08/2026It’s really wild to find out that a principal In the public schools is actively telling other educators that he has made it his mission that I never teach again. This is all because he didn’t like his yearbook photo. 120

L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 11/08/2026My wife worked full-time through grad school and her cohort all had spouses who supported them. She was told that she didn’t have the dedication to do art full-time because she could spend all day in the studio. When I was in grad school we had 5 jobs between the two of us and barely scraped by. 041
L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 11/08/2026I am still looking for a job. I’ve had two public school jobs rescinded after accepting due to “staffing changes”. Ed tech and corporate job applications are draining because of the expectation that an applicant will sit through 7 rounds of interviews or panel presentations. It’s exhausting. 261

L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 07/08/2026I would love to see a study on the lack of engagement on AI created marketing materials versus traditionally created. For me, AI slop all looks the same so I tend to skip whatever it is. It doesn’t show inventiveness or originality at all. Every poster looks exactly the same. 152
L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 31/07/2026Hello everyone, my job searching has been ongoing but I am still seeking something. I am an academic librarian with English teaching experience.

L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 31/07/2026Getting a handwritten letter with a survey to fill out by hand asking how the interview process was for a job I obviously didn’t get is just the icing on the cake. You didn’t bother to inform me that I didn’t get the job that’s how you did. 020
L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 30/07/2026Do I know anyone living in the Triangle or have friends there that may have a room to rent for the school year? I may have a job there and the commute during the week would be a bit much. Please share widely! 011

L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 25/07/2026A college classmate has started a wealth advisory business.

L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 22/07/2026I was not expecting to be ghosted for a school system job. I verbally accepted over three weeks ago and have heard nothing since. Someone let me know that the job had been reposted this morning. Le sigh. 100
L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 20/07/2026I consider my marriage pretty solid but I’m about to call it a day. I don’t understand what could go wrong if I bought a chainsaw. We totally need one and someone is being a buzzkill about “losing limbs” and “you aren’t outdoorsy”. 220

L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 16/07/2026Jesus what a week. Between my surgery on Monday and two different babies coming into the family it’s been an emotional week. Everyone is healthy and I’m getting into my new role as Great Uncle! 030
L Berrini @lpberrini.bsky.social · 15/07/2026I count myself lucky that I’m pretty healthy. Having had two surgeries since April with minor complications hammers home the need for nationalized health care. Even with good insurance I’m swimming in medical debt from the first round and the second surgery hasn’t even hit the billing stage yet. 020
