If in 2026, you are STILL saying 'why didn't X survivor/victim of sexual assault go to the cops or prosecutors?' then you cannot be trusted to drive a car or live by yourself because you are ignorant.
Every single one of the astronauts who went to the moon and back on Artemis II was educated at a public school.
Thinking of the teachers who poured into Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen tonight. You helped send a kid to the moon!

THE ASTRONAUTS ARE HOME.
PERFECT DESCENT.
SPLASH DOWN CONFIRMED AT 707!

Someone's feeling extra guilty, and sensitive, this morning
A whole administration of psuedo-alpha-male clowns
For those who aren't clear, the above was a sarcastic quip mocking those defending this war effort
Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was diversity trainings at work.
"It's just war crimes"

If youβre at #AERA2026, come say hi and see what weβve been building!
He's confessing to planning war crimes on live television
I, personally, would like to be on the dark side of the Moon too.
These are the words of a rogue lawless president in charge of a rogue lawless nation.
The US has zero credibility criticizing Vladimir Putin or Kim Jong Un or anyone else.
An image of blocks formed as a staircase with one dimension x1, and more than 2 levels
Is it this image?
Does your images have more than two levels?
Can one measurement be described as x1?

I work with a middle school teacher who began providing answers here and there, attempting to reinforce process over answer
"If im giving you the answer, do you think im concerned about the answer? What do you think i want you to focus on?"
Go Green!
I like leaving it open-ended ... how many and how do you know? Allows student to go where they go.
For this task id say "6" .. the unique white paths top to bottom (also, maybe im wrong. I can be wrong)

I mean, of nobody's gonna talk, im going to entertain myself
But class is waaaaaaaaay better when students are leading (or at least joining in)
Classes for me begin 1 of 4 ways (remember, university students)
(1) What does this meme? (Mathmemeteam.com)
(2) How is your heart?
(3) Which ______ are you, today?
(4) picture book read aloud
But I love both nitic/wonder activities and "how much, how do you know?"
As a Longhorn, i wonder why blue and not red?
I wonder what happens if they're secondary colors?

Wait ... wait time
And process over answer
And yall already know this, we're just exploring different strategies/algorithms
And why?
And the group structure (hexagon tables with 6 at a table)
And modeling unprepared exploration
And making my share of mistakes
And memes

It very much depends on the makeup of the classroom (and the class being taught)
Teacher math 1 (arithmetic) super chatty, most of the time. Group work. Discussion. Exploration. After a week or so, some classes do ask ... particularly when I drift around and ask each group
