Your outie doesn’t use Signal for war plans. #Severance

When was the last time you were bored?

Your outie reads all the program notes when they go to a concert. #Severance #Music

Your outie never claps on 1 and 3. #Severance #Music

Really looking forward to the @sjsubands Wind Ensemble concert this evening! The students have been working SO hard on this rep! Would love to see you in person at 7:30, but if you can’t make it, it will be streamed here: youtube.com/live/oI3A6Te...

🔥 CROCKETT: “Facts matter.”

If you’re siding with Vladimir Putin, you’re wrong.

Republicans are too chickenshit to hold town halls. Shocker.

Here’s an idea: Democrats, hold town halls in Republican districts.

Okay folks: looking for podcasts that are ENGAGING! What’re y’all listening to?

Finished reading “The Midnight Library” by @matthaig.bsky.social - Highly recommend to ANYONE. So many beautiful moments!

Trump and his American oligarchs are now openly aligning themselves with Putin and his Russian oligarchs.

This Putin-Trump alliance means abandoning our allies, supporting authoritarianism and undermining our democratic traditions.

I was very fortunate to conduct the NCBA All Northern Honor Band this past weekend! Concert was great! A testament to music education here in Northern California! Thank you to NCBA and Jazareth Valencia Cathy Ettle and Jonathan Latta for running such a smooth operation and for putting up with me!

Didn’t watch the game for…many reasons…but the Kendrick Lamar halftime was *chef’s kiss*. And unfortunately, as expected, many people completely missed the point.

@kendricklamar.bsky.social PLEASE use that stage on Sunday to adjust the lyrics ever so slightly to “They Not Like Us” to address Dear Leader in attendance. 🙏

I said this exact thing today.

There will be a stream! I will send it to you!

Really excited about the upcoming Wind Ensemble concert “Invisible Lines” 3/6/25 - “Dabke” by Kareem Roustom, “Requiem” by David Maslanka, “MARCH!” by @jennjolley.bsky.social and “Music for Prague 1968” by Karel Husa

I know neither! I will look into it. I'm not sure my youngest is AS interested as I am. LOL.

Listening to #awrinkleintime by Madeleine L’Engle with my youngest on the drive to school. Loved reading it when I was a kid, burt in had forgotten almost all of it! Any suggestions for other books when we're done?

Wow. This is killer. youtu.be/doKGd9_Ux-g?...

Holy. Crap. That's incredible. I put WAY too many hours into Roller Coaster Tycoon…but this…

Just for perspective to anyone out there: I set a timer for myself to respond to emails for one hour just now and I was able to successfully respond to exactly 10 during that time. For context, I get (on average) 30+ emails a day. I would need 3-4 hours a day just to keep up. #unsustainable

With all due respect to Sesame Street, which I grew up on, Yo Gabba Gabba was hands down the best show for kids my own children watched. The music was awesome in particular.

I can't get it out of my head—first book in a long time to do that.

Kaua’i is my happy place. Hanalei in particular.

I've reignited my passion for books and stories through the magic of #audiobooks. The latest journey I embarked on was with #Piranesi by Susanna Clarke, a truly captivating experience that defies easy description.

I really want to stay connected with family and friends here. I've found that many other platforms have become quite overwhelming, and it's been challenging for my inner peace.
