Both sens from NJ are “deeply concerned.”
@booker.senate.gov and @kim.senate.gov, NO ONE IS LISTENING TO YOU!
Please, it is time to call this out in louder, more strident language like, “This bullshit is against the law. This president doesn’t give a fuck about the constitution.”

The children need you! I teach ELD in middle school in DSUSD. Tuesday, a 6th gr. boy came in and asked, “Is it true that Trump is going to deport illegals?” (Exact quote.)
Many were worried about fam. Some were worried about themselves, & they are citizens.
We talked & they felt better. Please help!

I then assured them that they were more protected living in California, than those living in red states.
That is a Tuesday morning convo now.

This morning, a 6th grader came in and blurted out, “Mr. Sexson, is it true that Trump is going to deport illegals?” Four kids shared that they were worried about a parent.
I reminded them that I voted for Harris for this reason, and others, but that most of the voters chose him.

It Is MLK Day. Do Not Despair. This Year Especially, We Have Work To Do. With delicious anticipation, we imagined it.

Happy MLK Day. Since nothing’s going on, I wanted to share this. There are too many quotes to pull out, but I’m going use this, since I am a teacher, “To sustain a healthy democracy requires citizens who have been prepared by their education system…to exercise the responsibilities of citizenship.”

As the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. wisely said, "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." Today and every day, I pledge to never silence my voice in the fight for what is right, and I will continue to march in the path he forged toward justice.

What is the OTHER song?

I LOVE this song (who doesn’t???), but I don’t get why it is still on the charts, 20 years later.
Amazing.

Love this tie. My wife bought it for me when we went to Cedar Point in 2008. (The kids and I were on roller coasters, and she was shopping.)
Today, one of my ELD kids asked me why I was such a “chill” teacher.
It’s gotta be the tie, right???

That moment of silence for California at the Eagle’s game was the loudest moment of silence ever.
Philly being Philly.
(My kids saw their first drunk in public at a Phillies game.)
You stay classy, Philly.

Under the GOP's SAVE Act, Tribal IDs would NO LONGER be accepted as valid identification to register to vote.

This is a direct attack on the voting rights of Native American communities.

SpongeBob tie, Disneyland 2025 mug. I just finished the first week back from winter break, and the middle schoolers did a good job.

6 million meters per year is outstanding!
Running kills my knees. I am 6’4” and too cheap to buy a big enough bike. So for me, the ski erg and row erg are enough variation to reach 3 million meter this year.
I took your advice and began strength training last week!

Very nice! I am focused on rowing or skiing 8,300 meters every morning before work, so I can reach 3 million by the end of the year.

That’s what I was talking about. I mean, it is super sad that she didn’t beat the disrespectful fear-loving candidate & his followers.
Period.
And it stinks that she has to be the bigger person.

But…she showed her class & ability to not be affected by his hate.
It may be a while, but she will win.

Yeah this guy is a scummy racist. No prob.
But did you see Madam VP’s reaction?
She laughed at him!
That is power and victory, right there!
Can’t wait for her to be our next governor in California!

I am hoping (expecting) that she will be our next governor in California.

That husband is a horrible person.
Racist? Probably.
Classless? 100%.
But who cares?
I don’t, because I watched Madam Vice President’s face after he refused to shake her hand.
She laughed at him. That is what victory looks like.
Can’t wait for her to be our next governor of California!

Thank you so much for including me on this list! I’m trying to be positive, and bring the fresh voice of a liberal middle school teacher to this site (although today, in remembrance of four years ago, I’ve posted some negativity.)
Hang in there, everyone. We will figure out a way to right this ship!

Shouldn’t we say, “MAY I be a child again?”

This is directed to the OP, not Mark Cuban…
The series has ALWAYS been entrepreneurs pitching for an investment from rich people!
You don’t like it, don’t watch, but good grief, how did it take you THIS LONG to come to that decision?
I love the show, except when the sharks laugh at the presenters.

I don't even have anything insightful to say today.

I still can't believe he won after his actions 4 years ago today.

Today is January 6th and no one is watching the Capitol be plundered, feces being smeared on the walls, and police officers being stabbed with American flags.

Why? Because one side believes in democracy no matter what, and the other side only believes in it only when they win.

This man and a small group of capitol police officers singlehandedly saved our democracy four years ago.

In November, 77 million Americans said "to hell with them" and voted for the insurrectionists.

Your "Back the Blue" flags are a pathetic disgrace and your patriotism is bullsh*t.

I thought for sure that the actions by these traitors would cause them and their leader, our Prez Elect, to become politically toxic.
Remember, for a VERY few hours, the republicans in Congress condemned these actions, & Trump.

We must never forget that Trump encouraged this, & fanned their flames.

I’m married to a retired school teacher and counselor of 38 years. We could both also help with non-academic issues (she worked k-12 throughout her career).

Will do.
