Does your business cycle out technology? What do you do with it? If you are looking for a place to donate it- consider my camp! We need tablets for LEGO camp. Not every kid has access to a tablet and I want to make my camp more accessible for everyone! #technology

What we need:

iPads (iOS 13+) or Android tablets (Android 8.0+)
At least 2 GB RAM
Bluetooth 4.2+
Good working condition

If your business has tablets to donate โ€” or if you know someone who does โ€” please reach out! Thanks for supporting STEM learning for kids! ๐Ÿ’™

When did it become normal to play things that are loud in public? Someone is at gymnastics playing a countdown game with beepers. It is making my PTSD go insane.

Below is the official announcement slide presented at the recent DivCHED open business meeting. I'll be running against Steven Wietstock from Notre Dame, and I look forward to engaging with you all as we discuss the future of chemical education.

uses his imagination for all sorts of ideas & can't decide so he ends up turning in a blank kite and telling all of his stories as his project. The illustrations are all on his white kite, blending it into his story. Does this ring a bell for anyone? (2/2) #helpme

I've been trying to figure out a story that I read as a child for AGES. I think I've narrowed it down to a story in Highlights that is based on The Tiny Kite of Eddie Wing. It is a story where a child has an assignment in class to design a kite & uses his imagination for all sorts of ideas (1/2)

Son: I wore my ANALOG watch to school today.
Me: Yeah? Your analog watch?
Son: I like analog better. I feel like digital is just cheating.

Actually, he was my son's great uncle, so he is my uncle. Ouch. Was my uncle.

Kind of a ball of emotions. He'd been confused for awhile and seeing his dead wife, and asking us to undo all of the legal things we had to do when she passed away because she was back. He really missed her. Maybe he really was seeing her? #Thoughts

Just found out my great uncle passed away. He'd been in hospice for awhile, but didn't know he'd turned THAT corner. So, I'm shocked, but not shocked.

I donโ€™t care what side of the aisle you are on - if you see a person - especially a woman โ€”getting dragged out for doing nothing but talking by a group of men- and you do NOtHING? You helped whatever horrible thing happened to her happen next, happen. Bystander effect is real.

And before anyone says "You would have . . . in the last presidency"
Don't ever tell me what I would have said or done. Don't put words in my mouth or speak for me. I can do that for myself thanks. And yes, that would have equally concerned me then.

So anyone else have a problem with the White House account posting about the President being a King? Am I taking crazy pills?

I did not consent to my health, education, loan, tax etc information being accessed, leaked or used in this way. Have citizens no recourse?
