"School improvement is never 'a miracle.' The search for miracles and panaceas is a persistent fantasy that harms American education and sets up educators and students for failure." — @dianeravitch.bsky.social
@dianeravitch.bsky.social's memoir offers as much insight into her incredible life story as it does a cross-section of American life during each of her eight decades. I honestly did not expect it to be one of the most interesting books I read this year, but here we are.

The Elway doc confirmed these memories from my Broncos-fan life in Denver, 1984-2000:
1. Elway was deified upon arrival.
2. Reeves’ ego limited Elway’s early career.
3. Shanahan orchestrated a coup.
4. The Wade Phillips era never happened.
5. Terrell Davis was the key to winning SB XXXII & XXXIII

I love working at the Department of Justice and participating in a conspiracy to cover up the demented 80 year old president's sex crimes. I spend 18 hours a day redacting documents and there's a putrid husk where my soul used to be

lol. I’m so old I remember when the retention of Joe Pohlad was a condition of the purchase of the Twins.
The big news from the Twins ownership announcement: Tom Pohlad will be the new front person.
Tom Pohlad is succeeding Joe Pohlad in overseeing the organization and he will also succeed Jim Pohlad as the primary liason to the league.
