I live, work, play, write and make good trouble in New Orleans.
I love Bluesky because I get to enjoy birds, mushrooms, and sunsets with people who hate the Orange Menace as much as I do.

The left joins with right against the middle takes on the Trump/Mamdani meeting are way off. There is nothing substantive here. There will be no policy breakthroughs. That’s not what this is about. It’s about a young smart guy who knew how to play an old fool who worships stars.

Louisiana had another outlier “we’re started from the bottom and we’re still at the bottom” moment. Wow! Clay Higgins. The very worst of the worst. #bestworststate

After centuries of imperialism, colonialism, enslavement, and extraction, people in Europe and the United States claim to feel invaded? Sometimes you just have to marvel at the irony of it all. A long overdue bill is being presented for payment. Abolish all borders.

Are Andrew Cuomo and James Carville actually the same person? Has anyone seen them together in the same room? And if they are the same person, will they both go away and never come back?

The perverse pride of being the worst state of all was denied once again to LA. We usually have Mississippi to thank for making us #2 from the bottom, but this time shout out to Kentucky for treating old people even worse than the great state of Louisiana! #wearetheworst #bestworststate #louisiana

I stayed up until 2 am and got up at 5:30, and I feel like shit. I’m 58. The only reason I am gleeful is the thought of a 79 year-old overweight, unbalanced, dis-regulated, orange turd dealing with jet lag on a packed schedule. Run his ass ragged, please, nations of Asia.

I love to do a politically inflected Halloween display. I had a wrathful Dakini slaying trump in 2020 on my front porch and nothing in 2024 and I think that’s probably why he won. It’s my fault.
This is amazing. And it’s truly the stuff of nightmares.

Contest every race. Have a candidate in every race on every ballot in every county in every state.
Run even if you know you can’t win. Run because you know you can’t win.
No seat uncontested. Bring the fight to every ballot.

Charter School Reckoning: Decline, Disillusionment and Cost - Network For Public Education
Part I: Decline, the first installment of a three-part report, Charter School Reckoning, presents sobering findings on the stagnation, retrenchment, and accelerating closures plaguing the charter school sector as it enters its fourth decade.

I taught for 34 years in New Orleans and can verify this article tells no lies. Utter chaos, failure, incompetence, racism, discrimination, and instability is the legacy the charter system. Will any of the architects of and people who profited off this failed experiment admit it? Never!

The ‘Miracle’ of New Orleans School Reform Since Katrina Is Not What It Seems
The city’s all-charter school experiment is a cautionary tale about what happens when democracy is stripped from public education.

Don't export the NOLA approach to other districts. @carolburris.bsky.social explains why the sales pitches are built on quicksand.
