I think the Roku channel needs to work on its subtitles. I’m watching Junior Bake Off and hearing about “coughing almond buttercream” and “hombre effect”

I hope someday we defeat fascism and in the far future, No Kings Day is celebrated as a federal holiday, and little children leave out dance mixtapes and cookies for the Resistance Frog, who leaves pocket Constitutions in their shoes.

Most of the apps I was trying to use in class today were malfunctioning. Synergy, ClassDojo, Canvas, HMH Education…why in Dante’s hell does Amazon have a fucking thing to do with our education tech. I rebuke

Thanks!

Thank you so much 💗💗💗

In 2025, so-called Double Stuf Oreos are just regular stuf and I’m not ok about it on a Friday after a long week

A Wednesday Saga: Brother Stuck in Newark for 8 Hours and Counting

We are on the struggle bus over here, my friends. We are using the royal ‘we’

it’s been a hard day, find joy where you can

Rewatched Hawkeye because I needed the smiles. I love Jeremy Renner. The best is when he and Kate are planning in their ugly Xmas sweaters. And when she writes down what his boy says. And the tree crash. Also Florence Pugh is awesome. And Roger from RENT has never been so uncool 🤣 #longlivepizzadog

I did not bake brownies because I would have had to go out and buy measuring cups
Help when does adulthood come

I’ve only got one but it’s hella cute. I also have a mood collage though

I saw a video about teachers representing different Hundred Acre Wood Characters. “Middle-school teachers are Rabbit being paranoid everyone’s stealing your stuff” but how is it paranoia when I have bought 3 PENCIL SHARPENERS THIS YEAR

I think we are Kanga. Just trying to keep the babies alive

Weekend plans: bake brownies and sit on the couch eating them out of the pan while binging #TheCircle

And hopefully do some grading at some point

3 out of 4 days of state testing down, 1 to go
In between AM and PM, I am not making these kids work
Yesterday was The Princess and the Frog
Today, the new doc about penguins
I 💗 🐧

I’ve been binging reality TV on Netflix cause now my brain doesn’t work off the clock

I have watched everything from Love Is Blind to The Ultimatum to The Perfect Match to fucking Love Never Lies Poland (all 3 seasons)

The best is The Circle and I’m in season 1. Except the coolest lady just got 🪓d

Just mad. Teaching these days is a brainbreaking job with so little grace and so few rewards, and they’re still out here on our asses and taking advantage of us (no, I don’t mean the kids…well, unless it’s about snacks)

They’re lucky I want this job cause I’d be outie

Good morning.
Listen, you have to just decide.

They are not taking the Black Smithsonian.

Resolve it in your spirit.

Sharing an excerpt of facebook screenshot of Amanda Gailey: As someone who uses Signal every day, I need to explain how totally committed to being an absolute dumbass multiple people had to be in order for this security leak to happen. Okay, so in Signal if you want to talk to multiple people you have to create a group and give it a name, for example "JD Vance Humps His Couch." You then add people from your contacts to the group. If you are a competent user of Signal, you can then restrict the permissions so that only designated admins can add people. If you are an absolute dipshit whose only job qualification is pwning the libs on Twitter, you would create a group about war plans and not know about or activate this functionality. If you are in a group and are allowed to add members, either because you are an admin or because the admin was raised on lead paint milkshakes, you then must do the following to add someone: Click on "JD Vance Humps His Couch" Scroll down to "Add Members." Select one or more people from your phone's contact list. Click "Update" Confirm that yes, you want to add that member. This is impossible to do accidentally. Then, once you have gone through the multi-step process of adding a member, an announcement appears on the screen for literally everyone in the group to see: "JD Vance Has Added Chairry to the Group." This sentence is a line in a single-stream text thread and if anyone is reading their messages they cannot miss it. (If they are not reading their messages, one might wonder why they have been included on the chat to begin with.) At this point, anyone can say in the chat or privately, Hey JD, why are you adding the bedroom-eyed plush chair from Pee-Wee's Playhouse to our chat about your upholstery problem? Yet nobody in the war bro chat said a thing about the new member added to the group.

This is art. 🤗

I was in the Target and a little girl who was probably about 5 came out of an aisle behind me saying to whatever poor parent was trying to shop: “I’m leaving without you”

Watching Great Pottery Throw Down and I was like oh I like him he’s gay, I’m rooting for everybody gay….so: him, him, her…I need stricter criteria. Also rooting for the guy who opened his mouth and I was like “that man is from Yorkshire”

Advice for the day

One kid was so on point today—keeping up with the lesson, raising his hand all the time and answering lots of questions, and he told me a couple times how fun it was 🥰🥰🥰

Things like that make the whole day great, in spite of multiple crazinesses.
