It’s game day!! #GoBirds 💚 🦅

It’s wild to me that we’re still hollering about something that will never gain traction with the people in place, yet barely a whimper over Chicago. I’ve been lied to my entire life and I’m furious this morning.

I miss the sandman after 2 nights of oversleeping …

Work slack messaging today: “oh what a cool task - making email templates for doomsday events.”

I needed this news for sure!

Woke up, got coffee, felt unbearably tired so went back to sleep til my actual work alarm … now trying to figure out what I meant for another team to do, what I actually asked them to do .. and what they actually did. Also, why am I constantly typing abut instead of abOUt?!

It’s game dayyy! #GoBirds 💚

Damn but I miss sleeping.

Is this the beginning of the rapture?! Cat-ture? Capture?!

What. A. Game. #GoBirds

Heading up to Philly soon #GoBirds 💚🦅

I am beginning to understand that watching @theferocity.bsky.social watch tv is actually better than many shows … although I have to agree that #ThePitt is most excellent!

Ready for that big win 💚🦅#GoBirds

I agree no one should die bc of their political beliefs, but also? Don’t call that man’s words mere “political belief”. Don’t call him a mere “conservative thinker”. And despite what the media and the politicians want to tell us: when it comes to political violence, “both sides” are NOT the same

So today I listened to the soundtrack of KPop Demon Hunters and set up my new work laptop. Just a regular degular Wednesday… nothing to see here.

"Withholding books from students is inhumane. The best tool for improved academic performance is engagement – students learn more when they become engrossed in stories. Many students master test-taking skills but lose the window for learning to enjoy reading." www.the74million.org/article/engl...

Well, umm … Go Birds, I guess 💚 A wild start for sure 😫

So happy that football is back #GoBirds 💚🦅

Sighs. Reality sucks.

I fell asleep watching bing that documentary on Unknown number catfishing something something — had THE worst nightmares about my child.

No hope for us in MD-01 if this is how it’s going to go

Brilliant

Have we met? Because YES.

Questioning the wisdom of responding to 2 am texts from people I love but who are clearly intoxicated …

"Multilingual learners do not need to be “caught up” before they can participate. They need to be engaged through relevant, rigorous, and language-rich instruction that values their experiences." Candice Day Arancibia via @pblworks.bsky.social www.pblworks.org/blog/how-pro...

Republicans have time to pettily paint over a memorial for people killed in a mass shooting because they can’t hate gay people enough, but they can’t be bothered to stop school shootings because they don’t love children enough. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

😭

Welp …

I’m ready #GoBirds 💚

It’s the only way

Throw the whole motherfkn day away … sighs …

Say hello to my little friend … we’re all enjoying the cool temps outside this morning

Not so far in, but really enjoying the read. Beach reading is top tier!

When mentions of race are deemed too “divisive” for American discourse, history becomes relegated to comfortable fables. This vibes-based tactic makes putty of truth while claiming to protect it. @kearse.bsky.social on how our history became "divisive."

Yesterday was day 1 of my yearly staycation with my sister. Diff beach each day and good eats are the goals.

I made some changes in my life, and instantly felt a huge weight lift. Perhaps not so coincidentally, I slept through the night for the first time in months.

🎯

“Remembering to dream” … thank you @asv.bsky.social

Did you know that for $5/month, you can get PBS Passport, a service that unlocks the vastness of the @pbs.org libraries? Feed your mind while you help PBS stay on the air.

I’ve been in denial with myself on all the things I really want because I didn’t think them possible. That’s over with. I want it all.
