Writing question: How do you format texts between characters? For context, I have a HP laptop and use word.

How many more people need to be murdered in the street? How many more children ripped away from their parents? As a mother and just as a human being, I feel so sick all the time. This needs to stop. ABOLISH ICE.

Wild take but a man wearing a quarter-zip with a quilted vest over it is--not a red flag, exactly--but it's SOMETHING OK

time to share one of my favorite videos on the internet!!! Happy first night of hannukah www.youtube.com/watch?v=DtlL...

Happy Hanukkah! Thank you to Chabad of Park Slope for shining light in times of darkness, and showing we will never yield to hate.

4. All the evidence that is not anecdotal here, all the research, supports teacher burnout from too much tech and too many demands, but it keeps coming back to more training. It does provide a voice asking for fewer demands and less tech.
