Teaching kairos, during a week like we've had, to a student population that almost 50/50 immigrant/MAGA... after being given direct instructions by administration to "avoid politics when possible, unless it directly applies to SLOs... Absolute nightmare. #rhetoric #EverythingIsPolitical #eff47

Plus! One of my work besties has had severe bronchitis for the past week!

AND! I've been restricted from driving for 24hrs due to a lumbar injection, and started to feel head-coldy 26 hours ago...so, it had been a weird day.

I'd like to end the roller coaster ride that is Jan 2025 asap, please? 🤣😬

A laptop displaying a video on a dark desk surface, with various items arranged around it. To the left is a box of Luden's Wild Cherry cough drops and a carton of Half & Half creamer. To the right is a container of Grillo's pickles. The laptop appears to be a Samsung Chromebook and is showing Rhett & Link's EarBiscuits podcast episode on their experience with the recent California fires. The lapdesk is sitting on a hot pink bedsheet, visible in the lower portion of the image.

When 4 of your 9 local family members has had: bronchitis all December, pneumonia all January, a semi-whooping cough for 5+weeks, and now Flu A, (1 member per illness, thankfully!) + you struggle hard with #ARFID on a normal day... your #SafeFoods get stranger than usual. Plus, #EarBiscuits FTW

Thank you for sharing, @jennyhurley.bsky.social, it is a weird feeling: having access to info & support that could have helped them so much... makes me never want to take the supports I have now for granted. 💚

Anyone else think about female family members who've passed away & get sad because she suffered in silence with #adhd when female #neurodivergence was unheard of back then?

I'm thinking about her crocheting in her rocking chair, so she could focus on a TV show, & her food obsessions cycles. 😞

This is what happens. I have tried turning off RCS, but then i don't access anything in the group chat...

Anyone out there an expert in Google Messaging? I'm in a group chat of 7 ppl. Can only see texts from 3 of them. Help!? 🤷🤯

I'm very new to BlueSky... I'm hoping I could find some research on autism regression in late-dx adult women? Or *any* research on this demographic? For personal reasons... trying to understand myself better! 😀

Any suggestions?

Who spent their Friday night grading 45 assignments and submitting grades on a 24hr turnaround + tallying votes for an RPG game their Critical Thinking students played?!? This girl. #educator4life #HateGradesLoveLearning

access to contraception and family planning services has been shown to improve women’s economic prospects and educational opportunities. This is empowering individuals with knowledge about their bodies and choices and without making this choice it takes away that fundamental right.

I learned so much from this article! #Smithsonian #womensstudies #wicked

Nope! All kinds of folk: one was an army officer stationed in the middle east, one was a famous Japanese actor/singer, one was a mechanical engineer, and another half dozen or so we're randos that instantly got blocked because their profiles creeped me out. 🙄🤷

I haven't had it happen on any platform as much as it is happening here. They are probably decent guys, but I am not that kind of girl. 🙄

Hey, Bluesky! Public service announcement based on my experience this first couple weeks: I am not on here to be hit on by men in my DMs. And it doesn't matter how amazing you seem, I will assume you are catfishing. #NotInterested #NotADatingSite #NotLooking

A close-up selfie of someone wearing a turquoise tank top, sitting on a beige corduroy or textured couch. They have blue eyes, a warm smile, and reading glasses resting on top of their head. A partial tattoo is visible on their shoulder, and there appears to be a candle and some books visible in the background on a surface.

It's been a minute since I have been active on bluesky... this is me waiting on my laundry between classes as I work from home. What a weird week I've had!

I love it!!!

I had no idea that Ukraine gave us Carol of the Bells! #ukraine

This is my 2nd post, just to show how it works. #HUM120ds

"if I were to yell in time square 'compensation for organ donation could save more lives!' I'd be seen as an insane person, however if I yelled, 'who wants to make ten thousand dollars and lose that pesky kidney!', I think people would suddenly become interested because it affects them." 2/2

#teachlearnsky, sharing a student's reflective writing: "Something grand I’ve learned whilst learning how to craft persuasive arguments, is that nobody cares exactly what you think until what you say has the potential to affect them, for example..." 1/2

Thanks! If I could go back and edit, I would. But I'll try my best to remember in future posts. 😀

@bluepoppypub.bsky.social, Thank you for the reminder. I was in a rush when I posted. I'm going to assume that this comment was a kind reminder and not a snarky critique?
