Hello #Bluesky community! Reintroducing myself here since there's been a deluge of people leaving the Upside Down.
I teach elementary Band and Orchestra in grades 4-6. I married my best friend and have two amazing children. Never met a pizza I didn't like.

"Lincoln can you make more of the pineapple syrup. We need a lot so use the big immersion blender"
Me: "Sure, which one is the big one?"

Whether it's playing Born in the USA at rallies or referencing Apocalypse Now, it never ceases to amaze me how often conservatives stupidly parody themselves with pop culture references.
Read Pritzker’s message a few times over. This is pure insanity.
The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city.
This is not a joke. This is not normal.
Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

Every tyrant in history has sought to stifle criticism of himself and his regime.
But America was founded on criticism.
American democracy was built on dissent.
Every institution, group, firm, or individual that surrenders to Trump’s wanton tyranny invites more of it.
