A tweet that reads: My therapist, who was trained by the famed psychiatrist Victor Frankl, said to me today that the majority of his clients right now are dealing the same basic issue: We have all lost any concept of the future. We're all just getting through the day or the week. Our horizons have shrunk. We feel overwhelmed and overstimulated. I never understood how much the concept of a better future made my current life more liveable, made hard times easier to cope with, and supported my creativity.

In case you're struggling to find the words for why you're feeling the way you do.

A woman just stopped me in the doctor’s waiting room and told me I had a beautiful face. Shocked and grateful for a little lift.

I’d rather make students write on clay tablets than use AI to help me teach.

Don’t tell me these things. I’m easily influenced and now I have to go find them 😂

In Iceland, on Christmas Eve, people give each other books so they can spend the evening drinking cocoa & reading. It’s called, Jolabokaflod, the Christmas book flood. I’ve never been more in love with Iceland than I am right now ♥️♥️

These and gummie vitamins is how I adult and you can’t tell me to stop.

Did you get a cactus propagated by your student? No? Well I did and I’m counting down the minutes until I stab myself with it. 😂

An email from some silly students this morning:
“ Good morning!! S and I came up with this. We looked up the Latin word for duck because why not? And we noticed that Anates sounds like Senates. SO, we present to you: Anates Populusque Romanus, also known as The Ducks and the People of Rome.”

‘Tis the season of Christmas scented candles for teacher presents lol. Light up that Winter Tree Farm, bishes! 😂 🕯️ 🌲

I’ve slept a whole two hours. It’s gonna be a great day.

Bless her heart.

Oh weekend, how I love thee! In meo lecto iacebo et dulcidine condormiam. ☺️😴

I’d be so cranky!

Peak bed head!

Sometimes students will refill my water bottle from the filtered fountain and we all call that “princess water” because it’s far superior to the swampy tap water.

I recently realized I let out this guttural moan when it’s time to get out of the car and go into the school. That should tell you how I’m handling this school year.

Two weeks and we’ll be off for Christmas break. I can do this… blarg!

Beautiful. 😍

Oh no, it’s Monday again and break is over.

Sixteenth century characterisation of #winter. This is exactly what the 1st of December feels like.

A version of the kermit vs darth kermit meme where good kermit tells the online academic that they should grade, while darth kermit tells them they should eat more pie.

Every academic right now

Classicist dad jokes…

When a student’s mom texts you…

Wanna get your old hippie mother singing in the car? Put on some Janis Joplin. She still remembers all the words too. 😂

I’m sorry you lost your furry baby. Part of the family is gone. ❤️

Our classrooms have those sliding partition walls. The one between mine and the science class was broken so kids kept trying to whisper through the hole. I told them, “You aren’t Pyramus and Thisbe! Cut that out!” 😂 We all had a good laugh.

Oooo thanks for sharing this!
