ya love to see it www.nbcnews.com/business/bus...

TX Tech has a flow chat for guidance on what can be taught in the university system. Two things: 1. Very little content seems to be permitted. This is partisan control of the curriculum. 2. I would not enjoy teaching under these conditions, but I really would not want to be a Chair or Dean.

Me, every time I see an AI + Education position #WhatAreWeDoing #BringBacktheHumanists #FunctionsofFascism

And suddenly I am into hockey… 👀 🏒 🥅

But I couldn't be happier Simply couldn't be happier Well, not simply, 'cause getting your dreams, it's strange, but it seems A little, well, complicated There's a kind of a sort of cost There's a couple of things get lost There are bridges you cross you didn't know you crossed until you've crossed

Australia just recorded zero cervical cancer cases in women under 25 for the first time since records began in 1982. The amazing result of HPV vaccination.

*yawn* slowly waking up and giving thanks for all of the things #HappyThanksgiving

Ooof, who's sending out grant rejections the day before Thanksgiving #OhWell #OnwardsandUpwards #MaybeNextTime #NowToEatTurkeyandStuffing

one of the coolest things about ChatGPT is how you can actually just never use it. you can fill your whole entire life with simply not once using it. it's incredible.

Zoom doom

students walked into our 90-minute block today and drew one of six prompt options and then had the entire class period to craft their own interpretation using the novel we just read and those 90 minutes of writing were both intense and wonderful and silent and important

This is how we know that the list of professions anger is breaking through. A big issue, that at least one person foresaw, is that it's not enough to consider a historical list of professions. You have to consider the professions that we have, currently, in 2025.

Tablescape #2! Now bring on the turkey! 🍗🎄

I need everyone, esp anyone working in education or tech (but really everyone) to WATCH THIS CLIP of @drtanksley.bsky.social discussing the technologies infiltrating our schools & psyches and how she is addressing it with our young people. youtu.be/5mtcSL4S3HQ

@tylerwmartin.bsky.social knows how to tablescape like none other 🍗🎄

Congrats Dr. @scottstorm.bsky.social on winning the #NCTE25 Promising Researcher Award! Yay!

Congrats to @brownellcassie.bsky.social on winning the #NCTE25 Media Literacy award! Whoo Hoo!

Amazing job Jason Westra-Hall on a stupendous presentation about your incredible work stewarding LGBTQIA+ histories in ELA #NCTE25 #GoBlue

We are not a serious country, at all.

Skipped some afternoon sessions to checkout Mile Hi Pickleball here in Denver #NCTE2025

I have been feeling depressed and discouraged that this man has the power and influence he does at my school and in my profession And I am a tenured professor at Harvard! How much more protected can I be? Imagine how STUDENTS feel. Junior faculty. This quote nails it

Donald Trump says he wants interest rates to come down – but he is refusing to release the data the Fed needs to do that. Seems like he wants to hide bad jobs data. And working families will keep paying the price.

Got to the airport and realized the only shoes I brought with me are the Uggs on my feet 🫠 Looks like the first stop in Denver, CO is the shoe store…

Alongside Dr. Jill Hermann-Wilmarth, I am co-editing a special issue of The Reading Teacher. Our topic, LGBTQ+ Literacies: Affirming Identities, Advancing Justice w/ Pre-K-6 Learners, is sure to be of interest to many & is SO NEEDED in these times! Manuscripts are due January 15, 2026! #literacies

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Putting up Christmas lights today because it's 63 degrees in Michigan

It's been a whirlwind of a week w/ speaking engagements & workshops, but it was an absolute honor to return "home" (both literally & figuratively) and serve as one of the keynote speakers for Michigan State University's Student Symposium on Engaged Multilingual Pedagogy & Intersectionality (🧵1/2).

primaries for all of them

In 2019, Trump claimed he hadn’t spoken to Jeffrey Epstein in “15 years.” In 2017, Jeffrey Epstein was telling friends he was spending Thanksgiving with Trump — then in his first year as President.

So he’s saying all the tariff money we took in is gone and we won’t be able to pay it back. There was always a possibility he could lose this lawsuit and have to refund the tariff money. We didn’t prepare for that possibility? He’s running the govt like he ran his casinos.

Gov. Pritzker: “All I can say is that whether it was the loss in the elections a week ago that's led to Donald Trump deciding to pull CBP out or the fact that Greg Bovino is a snowflake…Whatever it is, the people of Chicago have deserved better than having CBP and Greg Bovino in this city.”

Sending love today, to everyone, for all of the reasons…

if you genuinely think Schumer and Democratic leadership opposed this & Republicans coincidentally got exactly the number of votes they needed to avoid a filibuster and none of those votes are from Democratic Senators who are up for reelection in the midterms next year, I have a bridge to sell you.

Might as well primary Schumer I guess. The campaign slogans would be so funny.

Thus do all traitors

I will not support a deal that does nothing to make health care more affordable. We are in a health care emergency. A simple one-year extension of these tax credits would cost less than Donald Trump’s $40 billion bailout for Argentina. A vote for this bill is a mistake.

Watching the Hallmark channel and chugging Sauvignon blanc because everything is shit 💩

So the oldest person ever to become president keeps falling asleep in his office during public events and there’s no big public discussion on how this is a coverup or how republicans are lying to us about how this government is running?

It's snowing 👀❄️

Waiting for airline CEOs, who abused their power to end COVID travel precautions, to wield that same power to end the government shutdown…

@joeroganhq.bsky.social is spreading climate denial and disinformation. Let’s help get him on board saving a livable climate — spread this widely. Send it to people who listen to him. #climate

I’ve never seen an American elected official fight so hard to starve people.

I wonder how many will be AI + Education hires!?! I can tell you this, I’d love Ed schools to hire humanists with this level of enthusiasm

There's an interesting study to be conducted on the ways faculty, staff, and students process their renewed access to federal grants coming at the capitulation of the university's future to an authoritarian.
