Man, when I post anything on X, it's like I'm speaking into a black hole. I super miss the interaction and collaboration amongst teachers from 2020-2021.

I'm really glad you joined this platform, Mr. Vice President! It would be awesome to see real discussion and not trolling like other politicians. Welcome! 🇺🇸

Strategies for implementing lessons

The first 100 days of Trump's second term Follow the Trump administration's actions and discuss the president's priorities in the first months of his second term

What has the Trump administration done with its first 100 days? Well, so much that some of it is easy to miss, even if you pay close attention to the news.

Discuss with your students using this @pbsnews.org Classroom lesson. #sschat #EduSky

History speaks. Europe’s lessons from a century ago can wake up and inspire our democracy…in 2025 America.

Stream my hour-long special “Rick Steves’ The Story of Fascism in Europe” at www.ricksteves.com/fascism.

@jonahg.bsky.social Just now on CNN you suggested a couple authors. I heard Applebaum, but what was the other author you suggested?

I'm definitely going to buy that one. Toledo has lived through the hits that Detroit has taken, but is definitely not what it could have been. Detroit is so sprawling it's almost like Toledo is a suburb.

What is the Toledo book about?

This has been an efficient and relatively engaging unit. #sschat 🍎 🗺️

Should we tack on one year of school and get "caught up" from the pandemic? In rural OH we took off 1 quarter, but there were tons of outages through quarantine. If we took a year to redo, would that do more benefit, or do we just need the workers? #sschat 🍎 🗺️

I love X in many ways, but I get tagged by crypto dudes and I get porny follow requests. It's icky.

Side note- I'm not getting the trolls and "adult content" things on this app the way I was on X. Is that a just for now thing? Is there a bigger vetting process here?

I'm giving my a little shot of Hopeium this weekend by listening to this audiobook

Awesome. I read 2 of the 3 (not his newest). I did a study abroad last summer in Germany & Poland (you probably already knew that) and his work was cited there as a key resource to learn about genocide and fascism.
