Please consider this @senbillferg.bsky.social

Students “had outsourced that level of thinking…” “couldn't always discern whether what AI generated was valuable or not… “and they still needed to build foundational skills…” @heymrsbond.com asks the essential question (my caps): “WHERE ARE THOSE SKILLS GOING TO BE BUILT IF NOT HERE?" 💯💯💯

Thank you for not voting to fund ICE @vanhollen.senate.gov I’m proud to be your constituent! You get my vote every time 🇺🇸

This from @andreapitzer.bsky.social is key. “nobody sane now thinks the answer to abuses at Dachau was to give the guards more training.”

I'm pro-union because I think workers should organize to balance the power that business owners have in various negotiations. It's true that unions have been weakened, but it's not because of multiculturalism. I would argue, it's because people seek to exploit divisions for their material interests.

despicable racist misogynist criminal administration

They created a traumatic, violent situation outside a MoCo middle school a couple of weeks ago. My student’s grandmother was deported 2 days ago. One of my students and her family stayed indoors all summer b/c they were afraid to go outside. @vanhollen.senate.gov @alsobrooks.senate.gov #AbolishIce

Reading is more than pronouncing words. Writing is more than producing simulations for the purpose of a grade. These things have been OBVIOUS for well over a decade and yet the systems that want to rank, sort, and track, rather than engage and develop students ignore this reality.

I just... like... the world's governments are condoning the deliberate starvation and slaughter of actual people, who definitely can and do suffer, and we're wondering whether a very fancy autocomplete can feel anguish? This is not just stupid; it is systematic dehumanisation of us all.

I’m on a train in Italy now and the chyron is “Al Jazeera journalists murdered.”

Thank you @vanhollen.senate.gov and @alsobrooks.senate.gov for voting to block the sale of arms to Israel.

Press coverage of the starvation in Gaza can leave the impression that the hunger is an organic disaster, a side-effect of war that is too complicated to fully explain. But famine is easily preventable, and this one has been orchestrated with the increasing complicity of the United States.

Your periodic reminder that the estimated cost to end hunger in the U.S. is $25 billion.

Alex de Waal: "this is famine... what is unique about this one is that the intl agencies are standing by with the capacity, the plans.. and they're not being allowed to implement those plans. If Netanyahu wanted every child in Gaza to have breakfast tomorrow, he could do it"

This stupid, narcissistic fuck is so embarrassing. #NATO

These New York City mayoral results, so far, are both incredibly inspiring and a middle finger spectacularly extended at a bunch of people who could not deserve it more.

I am incensed. This is all so heartbreaking and despicable. The Iranian people do not deserve this violence. We do not deserve this governance. The world does not deserve this. These outrages must end.

Excuse me @npr.org: “troops remain in place protecting federal buildings” (in LA) Protecting who? From what? Stop accepting / promoting ridiculous premises & framing - LA did not want or need troops, and ICE, 47, and Republicans caused the damage and violence.

I am so happy to live in Maryland and be represented by @alsobrooks.senate.gov @vanhollen.senate.gov Now do the rest of this cruel, incompetent, extremely stupid administration.

Trees planted by Mary Ellen Pleasant, a Blackwoman who became a powerful figure in 19th c. San Francisco, successful plaintiff in a transit discrimination case, Underground Railroad participant-- and who reportedly funded John Brown. Visited her little grove last week.

🚨Reports of planned ICE activity in DC: restaurant & food delivery (May 6 -10) 🚨Informes sobre la próxima actividad de ICE en DC dirigida a trabajadores de restaurantes y delivery de comida. (del 6 al 10 de mayo) 📞 ¿Vio a ICE? Did you see ICE? MSMA (DC/MD): 202-335-1183 CASA (MD/VA): 888-214-6016

So, maybe start by getting a sense of their knowledge gaps--what they don't feel they can confidently do well on their own. Then, help them fill those gaps while reassuring them that they don't have to be perfect, and that more practice is the best way to build confidence in what they can do.

Rockville, MD #TeslaTakedown protest stretched several blocks 🇺🇸 🇺🇸🇺🇸

Words cannot fully express my outrage at this gleeful promotion of the United States collaborating with a foreign government to hold people in a concentration camp. Fuck Nazis. Fuck Nazism. Never stop fighting it.

CALLS ARE WORKING - it has bought us precious time, but we NEED to keep the pressure up. Tomorrow is the cloture vote. KEEP CALLING: (202) 224-3121 ☎️☎️☎️ Tell your Dem Senator to vote NO on Cloture and NO on the Republican spending bill. Do NOT assume your Senator will be good on this. Trust me.

Please don’t let Cuomo be your mayor, NY. You could have Zohran Mandan, @jessicaramosqns.bsky.social, @zellnor.bsky.social! #abolishICE #FreeMahmoudKhalil #NoCuomo

MCPS educators and students are counting on you! @mcgexec.bsky.social We need more funding for schools and better resources for students. Help us make it happen! 📚🍎 #SupportOurSchools

Free Mahmoud Khalil!! How fucking DARE they do this in the United States!

At least 5x more protesters than were here a couple of weeks ago. Keep it up #TeslaTakedown 🇺🇸🇺🇸

Is there a single fucking Republican in America with any morals left willing to stiffen their spine and speak out against what happened today?

I love what Reps Judy Chu and Gwen Moore did (“barge” into the Speaker’s office) AND I’m sick of seeing that awful Politico article. The closing paragraphs are built on a quote (from a white man, I assume) criticizing these 2 women of color with words I bet he wouldn’t use about a white man. Gross.
