The final insult? Leaving halfway through the school year. Of course, this seat is better empty than having him in it, but still an asshole move. Oklahoma Education Chief Who Promoted Bibles in Schools Will Resign www.nytimes.com/2025/09/25/u...

Any college admissions people out there? Please tell me that you read teacher recommendation letters. I am on #18 out of 25 and I need some reassurance that I'm not writing into the void.

People complain about avocados, but I find peaches to be much more difficult. I now have a bunch of overripe fruit on my counter, but I swear they were concrete boulders only hours ago.

I teach AP Lang and as I start to think about next year's curriculum, I'm not sure what to tell students about truth. How do I equip them to tell the difference between truth and propaganda? Where do I send them for facts/supporting evidence if their government is supplying the lies? #teachersky

Last day of school today and I received the best compliment possibly ever. Student wrote in her thank you that I was the kind of teacher from whom she would feel comfortable asking to borrow a tampon. 😁

I didn’t think Noem knew how to read, but this idea is frighteningly close to the plot of Chain Gang All Stars. Unreal.

Steven Cheung, WH communications director, said the president “is a virtuoso and his musical choices represent a brilliant palette of vibrant colors when others often paint in pale pastels.”
Trump is going to bring "vibrant color" back to the Kennedy Center? Guess that doesn't count as DEI. 🙄

The galling part of this is that he gleefully and recklessly announces the cancellation. As if daring someone to go after these people who no longer have protection. Evil.

Not to sound ungrateful, but ncaa just touted their initiative to support teachers. 1000 per touchdown; 300,000 total. Anyone else think that laughably small compared to what NCAA football brings in?
