In need of a nice post from a running coach? This freshman runner just won a cross country race against challenging competition and even more difficult terrain. Her teammates gave her Pterry (loud p) to honor her accomplishment. #running

Last Stands in History: The Battle of Rorke's Drift

I teach a class to freshmen in high school and we have an elective section that lets me choose a lesson to teach once a week. I choose military history! Last week the topic was Famous Last Stands: The Battle of Rorke's Drift. It was fun. Feel free to watch. www.youtube.com/watch?v=njFp...

There is a Cardinal in contention for pope named PIERBATTISTA PIZZABALLA. I wholeheartedly support his epic name and nomination.

This administration is incompetent and endangering our troops. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared war plans in an encrypted chatβ€”including a journalistβ€”two hours before strikes on the Houthis in Yemen, the White House confirmed.

I showed this video to my government students and it almost brought me to tears...I am not the most emotional guy in the world but, damn, it hit me in the feels. How much has my generation and those subsequent, forgotten about our history? www.youtube.com/watch?v=3R1t... @adamkinzinger.bsky.social

I think I will use the phrase "environmental embrittlement" more often now that it has been applied to a Cyber Truck's propensity to lose panels in cold weather. I too, dislike the cold.

"There are only two opinions on this sign: Everyone is welcome here, or not everyone is welcome here,” argues Sarah Inama, a sixth-grade history teacher.

Sarah, you are a class act.

OK. Caption this photo my daughter took outside a bankrupt storefront. My thoughts, "Douche Convention." Or "Putin's Parking Lot." #Resist #AntiFascist #EatTheRich #AntiElon #AntiMAGA

I showed this to my government students, first, without the volume. We discussed how each individual appeared during the meeting. They thought the president looked tough. Then we turned on the volume (and they like CC) their opinions changed and most thought the president appeared childlike.

Planes falling from the sky, the president is taking our jobs, Putin is made a victim, and we have outbreaks of controllable diseases that we can't study because we dismantled the very scientific/medical organizations that are meant to protect us. Take a moment, collect yourself, fight back. #resist

So now can we just assume DEI will be the reason for any problem? "Egg prices too high? Gotta be DEI'

I watched the inauguration speech for a lesson I am doing in my government class. All I could think of is, "Orange is the Neo-Nazi." (Obviously, a play on Orange is the New Black) Is that fair?

Stay strong. For us, this is more than just a job-it’s a calling. Together, we will stand to protect our parks, environment, and wildlife. Four years… we remain hopeful that the attack on our public lands will be less brutal this time.

Every government class should teach about the dangers and characteristics of Fascism and Authoritarianism. I use this video (not made by me) as a discussion starter for my high school students: www.youtube.com/watch?v=CpCK...

I teach US Government to high school students. Today we discussed the certification of the election what happened four years ago. After watching what happened on the capitol steps, one of my students asked, "Why didn't the capitol police draw their weapons?" Continued...

Police officers believed that many in the crowd were armed.
Of the 14 arrested by CP on Jan. 6th, 29% had a firearm.
If you consider 2,500 people entered the building that means about 725 might have been armed. Just by using statistics. The Capitol Police were outgunned.
