I taught 1st grade for 20 years but now I aid and abet the teachers' union. Vegetarian, but genuinely try not to be annoying about it. In Illinois - but not Chicago, one of the small town parts.
This is the way. I've always felt it's way less embarrassing to ask a question than to get caught pretending I know something I don't
The actual secret to why I know stuff is that I ask a question any time I don’t understand literally anything. I don’t care how simple it is. Anybody who makes fun of you for asking a simple question likely doesn’t know the answer either

Known for the fried chicken but I was partial to the handmade tenderloin sandwich back when I ate meat.

Absolutely giddy about having to click every button twice to get anything to print or open for some reason now. Love it, actually. Thank you Windows 11 update. Thank you Microsoft.

There are bonafide monsters stalking the earth eagerly and enthusiastically distributing suffering to anyone they please. And with no recourse on our end but to film them and shout and beg for anyone with power to stop them. How convenient that the monopoly on violence always also acts as a shield.
Every headline is a moral injury
Every single post is like a punch in the face. Every headline is a moral injury.

It is tacky for really famous people to be in TV commercials for products. Their gambling debts/boat repairs are not my problem, those roles should belong to actors like the Time To Make The Donuts guy and the actress who said "who are you calling a cootie queen you lint licker" in that Orbit ad.

We watched Code 3 tonight and my medic boyfriend can't believe how well they were able to show the broad issues in EMS in such a short time. He was howling. Heart wrenching but funny cuz it's true. We just loved it.

Meet Shakira. Ten years ago, she was living in a shelter with her three kids, working at a non-union hotel.
Now she's a member of HTC.
Unions are how working people can build a dignified life. But in a city as expensive as ours, they need local government on their side.
