I’ve been a teacher since 2002. I haven’t had a normal school year since January 2018. Between the shooting at my school, COVID, attacks on public education (and educators), the daily hellscape that is Florida… I’m ready to be off this rollercoaster. When does life get to be mundane again?

Sometimes it’s hard to see the progress or feel like it’s working. It’s working. A side-by-side comparison with a 12 pound difference. Slow & steady.

The fear & impact of gun violence have no place in our schools & communities. In 2025, we took action—building networks, organizing & training, providing survivor-led support & amplifying voices for change. ❤️‍🩹☮️📚📓 www.teachersunify.org www.projectlockdown.org

If I pay for a streaming service, why are shows & movies interrupted by ads? To get rid of them, I’d have to pay more? This is absurd!

This is a wonderful piece written about the @teachersunifypc.bsky.social summit I attended last weekend in Philadelphia. Any teacher/school can reach a member of the crisis intervention team by calling (203) 296-3689 or emailing response@teachersunify.org www.chalkbeat.org/philadelphia...
These teachers survived school shootings. Now they’re offering help to their peers.
“They don't have to be alone with those thoughts or those fears in the aftermath,” said Kiki Leyba, who was teaching at Columbine High School during the 1999 mass shooting.

It was a weekend filled with laughter, tears, hugs, work, planning & determination to make this world safe from gun violence. These are some of the toughest, bravest, most resilient educators. Our experiences brought us together & our friendship keeps us together. @teachersunify.bsky.social

Today-Trump and Musk endorsed Cuomo-Cuomo is the candidate of the billionaires. Mamdani is fighting for affordability for all of us-particularly working families. I disagree with ZM on Israel but I want a Mayor who fights for the strugglers & strivers- not for those who are taking away our freedoms

I see a lot of people wringing their hands over shameless clown + white nationalist Steve Bannon insisting that Trump will serve a third term. And I get it. Folks are so traumatized and rattled regarding the past 10 years that they're letting him get under their skin.

Don't. Here's why.

This is beyond insanity
Dear whatever supernatural force could perhaps be out there, save us from this gauche nightmare. A third term for “orange you glad I didn’t say banana” would decimate us.
