I’m an ELA teacher again (sadly elementary theatre was cut),

so here are words I think should be pronounced as they’re spelled, like stop playing fr

1. Perseverance /ˈpɜr sɛv ɜr æns/ (per-sev-er-ance)

2. Wednesday /ˈwɛdnɛsdeɪ/ (wed-nes-day)

3. Colonel /ˈkoʊlənɛl/ (col-on-el)

One of the best episodes of Dropout, and an excellent example of storytelling mastery. It’s hard enough to do a one shot in the best of times, much less under such a time constraint as Parlor Room! @persephiroth.bsky.social is a master of her art. @dimension20.bsky.social get this woman a season!
There's a new episode of Parlor Room out now on @dropout.tv!

Join GM Persephone Valentine for a thrilling, spooky, and horny game of Thirsty Sword Lesbians - with players Becca Scott, Jasmine Bhullar, Aabria Iyengar, and Brennan Lee Mulligan!

One of my kinders brought a Labubu to school and I said “NO” and made that cursed thing sit face down on my desk all day

Why do I smell like diaper cream after teaching kinder summer school? I don’t use it, I don’t smell it on them, just whiffs of it afterschool enough to be disturbed.

I’ve done a lot of things in my lifetime, but I’ve always come back to teaching. When I decided to retire, I wanted to do it quietly.

Instead, my colleagues at @imcivicaction.bsky.social decided to make a film about my last class. Learn more here. robertreich.substack.com/p/my-last-cl...

Invest in low-income art.

-See local theatre and chat with the stage manager after

-Buy the piece that bring you joy at the art fair

-Donate to your nearest symphony so they can continue to perform for schools

-Get a library card and invite your favorite author(s) to visit

-Go to a museum

Quick ways to spot non-credible sources online;

1. No publication date posted with an article

2. No way to communicate with the author/publisher

1/ 🔒 Imagine a private company embedded in gov systems—processing and analyzing your health records, immigration status, and social media use.

That’s Palantir, co-founded by Peter Thiel, who once said, “I no longer believe that freedom and democracy are compatible.” Yikes.

Let’s discuss 🧵
ICE Is Paying Palantir $30 Million to Build ‘ImmigrationOS’ Surveillance Platform
In a document published Thursday, ICE explained the functions that it expects Palantir to include in a prototype of a new program to give the agency “near real-time” data about people self-deporting.

This country is becoming unrecognizable. What we’re seeing is state-funded fear. We’ve warned people: keep filming, go live on social media so these moments are documented and shared. This wasn’t a case involving masked ICE agents—but that’s happening too.

📢 Rumor has it the DOGE Traitor Tots were spotted at AmeriCorps.

First they gutted Peace Corps—now AmeriCorps is in their sights.

Because in Trump’s world, the best way to "cut waste" is to go after VOLUNTEERS strengthening communities at home and abroad 🙃.
