I would like someone to write a cartoon based on “The Circus Ship” by Chris Van Dusen. The animals hiding in new ways from Mr. Paine during each episode’s subplot are the gags.
@chrisvandusenbooks.bsky.social I told you this face to face once. So excited to see what they’re building at the MMM!
My family is all WE CAN’T LOOK AT IT! THERE IS NO HORSE, CORINNE!
I’ve trained the ChatGPT to quiz me on library science as John Mulaney. Ending the year the same way it started: as a giant nerd.
Sometimes a morale survey will include testimony that reminds you that people who work in the same building aren’t necessarily having the same teaching experience.

I got a good wake up call reading the responses.

Teachers: are some people mad at the system just to be mad?
In tears over Jamie Foxx. That special is powerful!
America’s Funniest Home Videos has an internal code: OFTTF.

Which one of you tv-obsessed Gen Xers remember, like me, what that meant?
I have found that memorizing every note and lyric to the soundtrack helps.
Let’s play a game. Find the #edtechai
The prompt vs. the result. #AI
It’s fun to watch him fail, but his policies hurt the powerless. There’s no joy in that.

We’re always coming up with systems to self organize because the workload is well, daunting.

Sometimes I feel like teachers are still working in COVID hyperdrive mode even though the pandemic is technically over.
My name and private info was posted on a book ban website. It felt affirming tbh.
There’s no adrenaline rush like being in charge of the audio/video setup of FAMILY MOVIE NIGHT and finally figuring it out.

We bought a license but streaming was blocked. Then HDMI was not connecting. Buffering—then I got it: Purchase, download, and play.

AirPlay to APPLETV.

I was going to tell a time-traveling joke, but y'all didn't like it.
Just a couple of teachers lost in Maine.
I lost everything I made on #Canva after they accused me of breaking terms of service with zero explanation. It’s been almost a month. I’m so bummed. Anyone else experience this?
Book fair starts tomorrow. It’s just books. No science kits, no fluffy journals, no art supplies, no magic spy pens. Not even posters.

I do it to focus on reading—-to kept trinkets out of the classrooms and to avoid theft. Do I make as much money for the library? Heck no!

But I make readers.
My eyes got a little wet when I saw your name. Reminded me of the beforetimes. Hope you’re well.
