For sure. Three acts should probably be in there somewhere too. BTC also, for something more recent.

That student was in a dissociative panic who had no one to turn to.

It's a messed up system.

No doubt with a "but I'm an ally!" disclaimer...

Things that don't show up in your teacher evals:

Giving up your Saturday night plans and staying late to support and comfort a kid who is going through a suicide risk assessment because you're the adult they trust most on campus.

😂 I'm currently at such a school. It's really wonderful for the kids who would be bored out of their mind in a regular classroom.

It's hell on the kids who would thrive there.

I have daily existential crises about this.

Alt text is a thing for a reason.

Heh. I'm not at the same level as you, but one of my favorites is asking teachers to explain*why* Kramer's rule works, and only ever getting an explanation of *how* to do it.

Your problem is endemic.

Whew. They get lots of tutoring, and if they don't get the grades they want, they go after every little aspect of a teacher's curriculum and pedagogy.

Ask me how I know.

That too, but even then they could model good teaching. But what we get is someone reading us power point slides with extended intros and extros filled with irrelevant information.

That's not good teaching.

Why is it that these mandatory district trainings are shining examples of pedagogical worst practices?

Therapy Good News:

My EMDR treatments from this summer continue to be effective. I can now get through our district's Suicide Prevention Training without repeatedly dissociating.

Doesn't keep the training from being completely horrible and soulless. OMG it's bad.

Every time I hear someone call this dumb, I get it.

But they are wielding that displayed ignorance as a cudgel - openly displaying that they will gaslight you and there's nothing you can do about it.

It's a power play.

I hope you take care of yourself as well. (It's just coincidence that I decided to get both last time I updated my passport, but here we are).

Get a Passport Card Compare the U.S. passport card and passport book so you can decide if you want to apply for one or both documents.

I keep my passport book at home, and carry my passport card with me.

I expect that rooting out those that might huddle is the whole purpose of this exercise. I fully expect a loyalty oath to be part of the process, along with a whole lot of "you're fired."

At least that's an option for you.

We have to sit through the whole training twice (once asynch, once in meetings, no chance to opt out).

We're a ways away from the inflection point that will get us there.

Right now, we're still accelerating towards fascism.

I'm a firm advocate of the pre rinse. Adhesion is weakened if the surface has already been wetted.

I think Aaron Rodgers with a really porous O line may be my favorite thing.

I totally forgot that Adrian Belew played with her. This what I get for not listening to music anymore.

I remember when you first started.

I'm so glad you're at this place now.

Huh. Mine (including birth year) are all 2mod4, so, well ... 🔳³.

Finally someone would not be wrong for calling them Liederhosen.

Do you do PayPal or Zelle? (pm okay)

I dunno. It feels like we should all want the FBI to go talk to him.

That's a shitty ass lookin cake.

Reflecting on this and the fact that cocaine is cheap right now because so much is getting into the US, folks I think President business might be pro crime actually
