I think the Roku channel needs to work on its subtitles. I’m watching Junior Bake Off and hearing about “coughing almond buttercream” and “hombre effect”

I hope someday we defeat fascism and in the far future, No Kings Day is celebrated as a federal holiday, and little children leave out dance mixtapes and cookies for the Resistance Frog, who leaves pocket Constitutions in their shoes.

Most of the apps I was trying to use in class today were malfunctioning. Synergy, ClassDojo, Canvas, HMH Education…why in Dante’s hell does Amazon have a fucking thing to do with our education tech. I rebuke
AWS being down is a great reminder that letting Amazon own half the internet is a really bad thing we've allowed to happen

In 2025, so-called Double Stuf Oreos are just regular stuf and I’m not ok about it on a Friday after a long week

it’s been a hard day, find joy where you can
thinking about how the human brain has a negativity bias, how focusing on all the bad things has, in fact, kept us alive, but also, you don’t have to be happy to be alive (past a certain point)

and thinking about how you have to be SO INTENTIONAL about happiness if you want it

you have to FIGHT

Rewatched Hawkeye because I needed the smiles. I love Jeremy Renner. The best is when he and Kate are planning in their ugly Xmas sweaters. And when she writes down what his boy says. And the tree crash. Also Florence Pugh is awesome. And Roger from RENT has never been so uncool 🤣 #longlivepizzadog

I saw a video about teachers representing different Hundred Acre Wood Characters. “Middle-school teachers are Rabbit being paranoid everyone’s stealing your stuff” but how is it paranoia when I have bought 3 PENCIL SHARPENERS THIS YEAR

I think we are Kanga. Just trying to keep the babies alive

Weekend plans: bake brownies and sit on the couch eating them out of the pan while binging #TheCircle

And hopefully do some grading at some point

I’ve been binging reality TV on Netflix cause now my brain doesn’t work off the clock

I have watched everything from Love Is Blind to The Ultimatum to The Perfect Match to fucking Love Never Lies Poland (all 3 seasons)

The best is The Circle and I’m in season 1. Except the coolest lady just got 🪓d

Just mad. Teaching these days is a brainbreaking job with so little grace and so few rewards, and they’re still out here on our asses and taking advantage of us (no, I don’t mean the kids…well, unless it’s about snacks)

They’re lucky I want this job cause I’d be outie

Good morning.
Listen, you have to just decide.

Resolve it in your spirit.

I was in the Target and a little girl who was probably about 5 came out of an aisle behind me saying to whatever poor parent was trying to shop: “I’m leaving without you”

Watching Great Pottery Throw Down and I was like oh I like him he’s gay, I’m rooting for everybody gay….so: him, him, her…I need stricter criteria. Also rooting for the guy who opened his mouth and I was like “that man is from Yorkshire”

One kid was so on point today—keeping up with the lesson, raising his hand all the time and answering lots of questions, and he told me a couple times how fun it was 🥰🥰🥰

Things like that make the whole day great, in spite of multiple crazinesses.

Does anyone want to see Janelle Monae and theeee Grace Jones with me on June 5th here in D.C.? (For $251 😬)

The $1 is for a donation to the Capital Pride Alliance. I guess it’s better than $0.
