Angry Wynn Duffy is the best Wynn Duffy

Sometimes I wonder what it would be like to have a job that instead of me having to prepare for it ahead of time I could just show up and do my job during my scheduled/contracted hours.

We're about to see another Battle of Brookline aren't we?

Coach Jackie doesn't miss.

An amazing thread bringing in fashion and history. A great read for everyone, but especially teachers of World History. 🗺️

I hope everyone has at least one person in their life that loves them as much Cheryl Reeve loves getting after an official. #wnbarefs

Might need to make this into a t-shirt...

Remember kids - you can never start your career soon enough!

New free post! Everyone should know about the Haitian Revolution - here are five resources for learning more or for classroom use 🗺️🗃️ #histodons www.liberatingnarratives.com/...

What's the opposite of the Mariners witch? 👇

Physical buttons in cars! Physical media in homes! Physical keyboards on phones!

this exists it is called thinking

New post about teaching global feminism between 1750 & 1850 🗺️🗃️ www.liberatingnarratives.com/you-will-nev...

Researching how to run for Superintendent of Public Instruction... washingtonstatestandard.com/2025/09/16/r...

So this is the thing I absolutely have to prepare my students to use or I'm a shitty teacher??

I'm going to start selling a Lil Luddite Hammer for children to use to smash the shit out of Grem and pals.

I miss the Sundays I would spend at the copier running of copies of readings for the week for my classes. Make this a high school and I'll send my resume in the same day.

The first season of Justified isn't great, but I'll be damned if the first episode isn't one of the better pilots ever made.

Sarr really making an argument for being everyone's favorite Spurs player.

What kind of Bond-villain shit is this? We're going to intentionally work to take this skill away from people for no good reason, and then demand that people have that skill. God I hate ai more and more every day.

New post! I discuss how Marlene Daut’s new book on Henry Christophe and Julia Gaffield’s book on Jean-Jacques Dessalines are helpful to world history courses. 🗺️🗃️ www.liberatingnarratives.com/astonish-the-world/

Crazy Train will always be the best marching band song, but it's getting some competition:

New post! Too often students assume enslaved Africans revolted on Saint-Domingue because they were inspired by the Enlightenment or the other Atlantic Revolutions. They didn't. 🗺️🗃️ www.liberatingnarratives.com/enlightenmen...

The Internet can be an amazing place sometimes

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that's probably not it.

Biggest takeaway from Week 1 of teaching this year: how absolutely divorced the conversation around education is from what actually takes place in the classroom. Way too many folks not in the classroom talking loudly about a classroom that they no longer (or never did) understand...

If you see this, repost with a vampire that is not Dracula

I always forget just how great Good Eats is.

Two pieces by high school students in the same week worth a read (one from The Important Work, one from The Atlantic). theimportantwork.substack.com/p/at-my-high... www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

In case you were wondering what my students retained from last year, don't worry they stopped by today.

Slept in a Tom Petty shirt, woke up in a cabin down below.

Aaaaaand we're back to it.

On a related note-could we explain this to all the people who want to push college into high school? Like no College Board it is in fact a net negative that kids can skip an essential experience in both hs (bc it's a 'college level' class) & college (bc they don't have to take that 100 level class)

Oh hey what do you know - AI will actually be creating *more* work for teachers. What a shocking development. www.cascadiadaily.com/2025/aug/31/...

Me to my best friend reminiscing about our AP Lang teacher teaching us...how to know if something is real I guess? I believe he said "How do I know this is a chair? It looks like one. It feels like a chair. Does it taste like a chair?" Anyway, he was a former Army Ranger too. Loved that class.

Two things - and they aren't the most important - but I thought I'd share anyway. I wish I had known that information when I got pulled over at Mt Rushmore like 15 years ago. As someone who is from ND I really hate that he is the best we had to offer.

New post about teaching the 1835 Malê Revolt in Brazil. It was the largest urban slave uprising in the Americas. 🗺️🗃️ www.liberatingnarratives.com/a-huge-conti...

Ok, hear me out. A Lord of the Rings re-make, but with these two taking the One Ring to Mordor:

It's funny how it's always "student voice is critically important" until they use their voices to advocate against the status quo. We should amplify those voices. I'll be using this article in class to start a conversation around AI with my students when we start next week

Hey everything take back everything I said about AI - it totally is the way of the future!

Weyoun 6 > all other Weyouns

If you're a teacher engaging in this kind of bullshit there is no device that can measure how disappointed I am in you.

Second greatest episode of Trek?

Time for a new theme for the month and a new free post. I wrote about why we should and how we can center Brazil when teaching the transatlantic slave system. 🗺️🗃️ I drew heavily on the work of @araujohistorian.bsky.social www.liberatingnarratives.com/the-horrors-...

Just found out they added a Sociology course to me this semester (which 🎉, but also we start on Tuesday...) Who are some of the most follows, resources I should check out, etc. I'm super pumped, but it's been three years since I've taught it, so I feel like I'm out of the loop...

You can never have enough books!
