She’s making it happen, y’all. @jasmineforus.bsky.social is activating non-voters just like she said she would. “55% of the people that showed up on day one don’t normally vote in a primary. In fact, 20% of those voters were first-time voters.” 💥

🎓 Student voice - important. Latest from the students says that they want tighter discipline & disturbance-free lessons. Good. Also, more chips (fries) and less writing Parent voice - emails/calls responded to that day. School bends over backwards to accommodate them Teacher voice...teacher voice?

I've added a blog to the website all about making 'Ammonites'. I've been based down on Dorset's Jurassic coast for over 20 years now, so I've made a few! 🙂 Here's the link . . . www.darrellwakelam.com/news/cardboa... #edusy #skyart #UKEd #artwork #sculpture

We are all immigrants. Unless you came over on the Mayflower. I am an immigrant to Canada having grown up in the US. America was built by immigrants. Some people have forgotten that.

We want the media and politicians to recognise that there is a large number of women who are supportive of the trans+ community. We call on them to report truthfully about the sources of violence against women and to address the systems that perpetuate harm. notinourname.org.uk/petition/not...

Thanks for posting Dan - you have saved me a job that was on my to do list. #SciTeachUK Here is the trailer video: youtu.be/Ni5s2HXCzXI

A lovely surprise when I arrived home tonight - the January edition of Education In Chemistry from the Royal Society of Chemistry, with my article on page 21!

Hey @thehill.com we’re still waiting on your apologies for this lie. 🤷‍♀️

Tbh it's a bit frustrating seeing edutwitter complaining that they 'can't make bluesky work' so they have to stay on twitter (apparently despite the CSAM). You have to actually try to make this place work for you, not post 3 times and only follow 100 people.

I dunno...seems a l'il hinky to me....

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

Instead of everybody making the same joke about the FIFA Peace Prize, maybe we could boycott the World Cup?

Here's a really easy New Year's Resolution: If you're sick with something contagious, you will stay home if your circumstances allow. If you can't stay home, you will mask around others until there is no possibility you are contagious. By making these choices, you will literally save lives.

David Attenborough [whispering]: “Like a grain of sand in a vast desert, the predator blends seamlessly into its environment, nearly imperceptible to the naked eye.”

Issa Rae has canceled her sold out performance at the Kennedy Center. Pulitzer Prize winner Rhiannon Giddens, Peter Wolf, Low Cut Connie, and the Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington, D.C., have also canceled. Lin-Manuel Miranda has canceled the entire Kennedy Center run of Hamilton.

"Those that do not learn the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them"

You can't name one thing America needs from Russia. There's a long list of things America needs from Canada. So why is Trump kissing Putin's ass and picking fights with Canada? This is why he has bankrupted every business he ever started.

Next year's artists signed contracts to perform at "The Kennedy Center for Performing Arts." Since a venue with that name no longer exists, and one with a very division name many artists would not wish to be associated with does, they should be able to get out of their contracts.

If this is true, it is the most impeachable offense ever.

This message hits hard.

Merry Christmas! Michelle and I hope you have a wonderful holiday filled with light and joy.

Men are afraid that women will laugh at them. Women are afraid that men will kill them." - Margaret Atwood

A beautiful family with dignity and decency. I miss that in our White House today

It’ll always be the John F. Kennedy Center. It’ll always be the Department of Defense. It’ll always be the Gulf of Mexico. Anything else is illegal, trashy and fake. Period.

JD Vance: “her street girl persona is about as real as her nails” Jasmine Crockett: “How about you stop worrying about me, until we are on the Senate floor together & work to stop your boss from bankrupting our country while engaging in the largest corruption scheme we’ve ever seen?!”

Rob Schneider, famous for his investigative work in Deuce Bigalow, has really cracked the media code.

“Clinton is in the Epstein files!” Great. Next time I come across a Clinton rally, someone wearing a Clinton hat, or flying a Clinton flag on their truck, I’ll be sure to let them know. The rest of us want them ALL held accountable because we aren’t in a cult. Hope that helps.

God, if you are listening...

Parents! Carers! Anyone taking care of children over the Christmas holidays! My regular reminder of this thread of TOYS you can make from scrap materials, all of which work due to some sort of interesting scientific principle

Living for the day when that vile gargoyle's name is crowbarred off the building.

Khanna: "The law clearly required all unclassified information being released today. They obviously have not complied with that law. They claim it's because it was only a few weeks -- well they've known about this for months."

I never want to hear another American make fun of North Korea ever again.

This is part of the Trump administration’s Epstein Files release — 119 pages of Grand Jury testimony, fully redacted. This is not transparency. This is a cover-up. Follow the law and release ALL of the damn files.
