K. R. Luebbert (I do mind dying)

Some folks need to understand that loyalty to that man will never, ever be repaid in kind.

Watching #DS9. Season 1, ep 3 and I love how Kira has been Odo's ride-or-die from the get.

I have to wonder what the response would be if, for example, a Black or Brown man with Tourettes had yelled the c*** word at white women presenters. Would we be asked to understand and forgive so quickly? #BAFTA (and yes, I know what Tourettes is).

Nice zine about #OnaJudge and the #PresidentsHouse site at Independence National Historical Park.

Why police unions are not part of the American labor movement George Floyd’s death has thrust police unions into the spotlight amid a growing recognition that they are not part of the U.S. labor movement but a narrow interest group pursuing their self-interests.

Ice defeats ICE. 🧊🧊🧊

Clearly, the DHS/ICE braintrust that named the Charlotte attacks "Charlotte's Web" either never read the book or completely missed its message. #NoOneIsIllegalOnStolenLand

14,000 Philly schools employees were supposed to get a raise by now. They’re still waiting. Arthur Steinberg, president of the PFT, blamed "internal failures" for repeated problems with the district's payroll department getting timely and accurate pay to workers.

Just a note to @watlington_sr and the other bosses at #PhlEd who can't get their work done: EVERY THING you ask teachers and other in-school staff to do is on "an aggressive timeline". We get no understanding when it's not done. www.inquirer.com/education/ph...

Just gonna say it: when it comes to quarterback commentary in the @NFL too many of these talking heads are blinded by the white. #GoBirds

Happy Star Trek Day from me and my favorite Captain! #DS9 Forever.

Where is @PhillyMayor? Where is @PHLCouncil? On Monday, the first day of schools for #PhlEd students, we are set to have a @SEPTA implosion? Where are the "leaders"?

Opinion | A genocide is happening in Gaza. We should say so. We can no longer hide the uncomfortable truths of Israel’s destruction of Gaza.

This is genocide.

When you sacrifice your principles to carry out the craven agenda of the bosses (all for standing and money), you will never know a moment's peace. #PhlEd

Keziah Ridgeway, a celebrated and embattled Philadelphia teacher, is suing the district alleging anti-Islamic bias The school district recently investigated Ridgeway for alleged antisemitism and violations of its social media policy. She was given a five-day unpaid suspension and reassigned from Northeast High.

The perfidy of #PhlEd officials will not go unpunished: www.inquirer.com/education/ke...

The @PHLschoolboard and President Streater pay lip service to our #PhlEd students. But they routinely break promises and lack follow-through. inquirer.com/education/phil…

The eternal conundrum: a student doesn't "really like Cs", but also doesn't like working hard enough to produce work that would earn a B or an A. #PhlEd
