Teaching developing humans in adult-sized systems is no joke.

I don’t do toxic positivity or blame-the-teacher bullshit.
I do clarity, structure, and strategies that actually work.

You’re allowed to be tired and good at your job.
Pinned
I name patterns, not people.
I talk about systems that make learning harder for developing humans than it needs to be.

I believe structure is care and expectations are humane.

I choose dignity and clarity over compliance and quick fixes.

Read generously. Disagree thoughtfully. Keep it moving.
Small but mighty humans don’t need more freedom right now.

They need structure that holds.

That’s your cue to offer bounded choice and move on.

America's heritage is the rule of law that no man, none, not one never is above the law that immigrants from all over came to get a dream and worked hard paid taxes to uncle Sam and raised their family living the way they wanted prayed how they want to whom they want where we the people have rights

This is exactly what people on the right were saying before and immediately following the 2024 election. By any means necessary.

Now we have elected officials saying the same.
The point being made is that if you don’t agree with our plan, we will investigate you, arrest you, charge you, beat you, kill you.

Somehow my federal taxes have decreased by $12 per paycheck.

Big deal.

My next paycheck will be less. My healthcare is increasing > $150 per pay period.

Facts are facts. Conclusions you draw based upon those facts … well comes down to a variety of things. Like your morality, ethics can values. Your ability to synthesize. Your background knowledge. Etc. etc.

Ex: Fact— he posted this. My conclusion— his IQ isn’t as high as he claims.
Elon Musk: "I'm a free speech absolutist!"

Also Elon Musk: "Anyone who teaches students that America was built on stolen land is guilty of treason and should be imprisoned."

Look, some of us tried to warn people that Elon Musk doesn't care one bit about free speech. But did anyone listen?

Just the fact that he was suspended after being told that in that moment that he’s fired … we are not in a democracy, folks. At will employment, company regs, or not. This is undemocratic bullshit.
The Ford employee that yelled “pedo protector” at the super presidential tRump, is getting disciplinary action. Hope he’s not fired. That dude has more balls than the entirety of the media

From a good friend in Minneapolis: "Target is allowing ICE to stage in their parking lots, use their restrooms, and abduct people from inside their stores - so if you weren’t boycotting already, now is the time." They were staging in Chicago as well.

Folks, if you have a Republican rep or vote Republican, this is the legislation they’re putting forward. They are actively working to take money out of your pocket (yet it again). They are actively working for the rich and powerful.
House Democrats just DEFEATED a Republican bill to let employers deny overtime pay or minimum wage to workers if they classify time worked as "job training" or "education."

6 Republicans joined us and the vote failed; GOP leaders then cancelled votes on two more anti-labor bills.

I don’t know about you, but I for one am thankful that @michaelsteele.bsky.social told @rokhanna.bsky.social that Americans are desperate for action from their reps.

Choice isn’t the problem.
Unlimited choice is.
Narrow it.
Make expectations visible.

It's "America First" until Netanyahu asks for money and bombs.

It's "America First" until Americans demand universal healthcare.

It's "America First" until Americans demand tuition-free college.

It's "America First" until an American citizen is shot in the face by ICE.

Republicans cut your healthcare to pay for a federal invasion of Minneapolis.

ICE isn’t making us safer — it’s terrorizing our communities.

You can’t control what happens with students at home.
You can only control what happens in your classroom, in your school, in your district.
Fix the shit that’s not working for learners while they’re with you.

I cannot stress enough. Please pay attention to how they speak. They — all the way to the top — speak like abusers. That isn’t vernacular you stumble upon.
This is the second one of these threat videos I’ve seen in two days. But of course “objectivity” for some reason means the news can’t report this as “ICE agents repeatedly threaten to kill people”
ICE agent screaming a threat: "Did you not learn from what just happened?"

Just a life rule.
Never forget the most ironclad rule of politics:

Every abuse you justify against another will be weaponized against you in time.

To cheer abuse, violence, or the suspension of others’ rights is to cheer the abuse, violence, and suspension of your own.

Choice gets messy when expectations are unclear.

Learners are left guessing without guardrails.

Pull it in. Make the boundaries clear.

The internet is increasingly depressing as hell today and people like me can only take on so much.

So watching the Golden Globes. And the woman interviewing everyone just said to one of the moms: It takes a star to make a star.

That was just a pure delight to hear.

I don’t know why but I’m on FB and there are a lot of local political posts & just here so public information. I swear… these accounts could say, “just rescued children from a burning home” and the comments would mostly be hateful, cursing, and threatening. It’s so sad.

This sounds a lot like in Berlin before the wall came down.
We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.

Routine is regulating as hell.

You already know this.

That’s your cue to slow it down and teach clearly.
January 9, 2026 at 11:09 AM
January doesn’t need a reset.

It needs one routine made visible again.

Pick it. Teach it. Stick with it.

Recently heard podcaster comment about how comfortable ppl are to blame & attack Bondi & Patel > Trump because they refuse to go against him.

I’d like to offer alternative theories:
Racism.
Misogyny.
