I'm a physics and math teacher, and the math department chair at the Blue Ridge School, an all-boys boarding school in central Virginia. I love animals, nature, music and poetry, and my amazing spouse. I am proudly queer and out.

Does anyone have advice about fully transitioning off of FB? I'm done with the apathy and complacency I see there about the current administration...

I'm debating about leaving all META apps. Before I do that, I want more of a handle on this one. Please help by telling me briefly how you're using this app.

I work at an all-boys high school... the students (in another class) were apparently saying the fires in LA weren't managed because the firefighters are women... UGH. Thank goodness the (male) teacher spent 15 minutes addressing this. But UGH!

I'm the faculty advisor to our school's GSA. I work at an all-boy's boarding school. In our meeting last night, the club members mentioned an uptick of hate speech among students in the dorm since the election. What have others seen and what have you done about it? Thanks!!

What's up BLUESKY! I'm so happy to be able to follow like-minded educators and NOT be on "that thing formally known as twitter"... #EduSky
