Looking for social media connection from the days of yore; before Zuck told me what I would or wouldn't like. Happy to talk teaching, Disney, and how to stop fascism from taking over the country.
Michiganders are really stepping up lately!
Hey folks 👋 I’m a mid-Michigan dad and a union educator who’s been standing up to billionaires like Betsy DeVos.
Now I’m running for Congress to lower costs—and invest in families. Will you pitch in to help launch my grassroots campaign? 👇

Finished Salt to the Sea by @rutasepetys.bsky.social This book will stay in my soul. My father is 1 mo older than Emilia's baby and also escaped East Prussia w/family. Important read for kids AND adults, esp if you don't know about Wilhelm Gustloff sinking. (Which I did NOT!!!)

Chatting w/friend about her rough upbringing and finding escape in books. I see my students with unstable lives. Instead of running to books, they run to TikTok, shunning the stamina needed for novels.
Getting kids to read is my fight. I need them to see the windows and mirrors. #booksky

So now warning viewers about racist content is DEI: Disney becomes the latest company to preempitvely succumb to Trump. www.washingtonpost.com/style/2025/0...
Disney scales back content warnings on classic films amid DEI shift
Classic films including “Dumbo” and “Peter Pan” will no longer autoplay warnings about racial stereotypes. It comes as Trump cracks down on diversity initiatives.

Elon, can you not afford a nanny? We teachers cannot bring our children to work. Surely someone in your position should be able to find help?
Musk totally humiliated Trump during their joint Oval Office press conference. Musk brought along his 4-year-old son — making Trump look like the kid’s babysitter — disrespectfully wore a T-shirt and baseball cap, and even interrupted Trump.
It’s clear who’s really in control, and it ain’t Trump.

A picture really does speak louder than words, and yesterday’s Oval Office briefing by President Elon Musk proved it in spades.

If you know me personally, you know I am a Disney adult through and through. But the world is heavy & sometimes I need to be present in "reality-land". We are taking a podcast sabbatical. Here's to hoping we will be part of the "magic" in the future!

Donald Trump confessed to being a serial sexual predator.
Of course he’s protecting other predators.

If USA charges tariffs on Mexico, wouldn't Mexico raise tariffs for USA? Specifically corn?
And wouldn't that encourage Mexico to grow and produce the enormous amount of corn they import from the USA (which baffles my mind)?
I mean, it's Mexico. They know their corn.

Don't confuse them.
He is flooding the zone. He knows that media will cover everything he does. Getting people upset. Which helps give him more coverage of the upset people. All just talking about him.
Dems need to be strategic.

I am passionate about media literacy and truly scared the older GenXers and boomers don't know about algorithms and fact checking. They are still under the mindset of newspapers on their doorsteps and Walter Cronkite or Dan Rather on TV.

Ok, #disneysky people: this one's for you.
Yes, @dralfredday.bsky.social misspeaks and says, "nights" instead of "bash", but he does not care a bit about proper terminology.
Who is correct in this argument and why is it me?

Is it historical fiction? Is it science fiction? Is it a book on mindfulness? It IS genius. @erinentrada.bsky.social won the Newbery for this. My middle schoolers will eat this up. Heck, I was 8.5 months pregnant and scared to death on 1/1/2000 and I read this in one sitting!
