I’m a teacher, a father, and a nerd, so I’m probably like a lot of you reading this.
Maybe trust that teachers do know best. ⓘ 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘶𝘴𝘦𝘳 𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘶𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘰𝘧 𝘣𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘢 𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘳𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘵 𝘰𝘳𝘨𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘻𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘥 𝘈𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘧𝘢. 𝘗𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵 𝘢𝘯𝘺 𝘴𝘶𝘴𝘱𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘰𝘶𝘴 𝘣𝘦𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘰𝘳

Got into an argument today with my admin. 8% of my students are failing. The reasons they are failing her because they aren’t doing the work and they’re not coming to class. Apparently I need to somehow fix that. They also didn’t like that I care more about the skills than the grades.

I left on time today from work for an appointment. I received an email asking why I left early. I left at the end of my *contract* hours for the first time in weeks. Do they tell CPA’s, “If you leave at 5 when the day’s over, you left early,” ever?

I am trying to do everything I can to help a colleague of mine who is falling apart. Parents are just so vicious this year. I’m sorry your kid is not getting an a, but they haven’t turned in any work. Talk to the kid, not the teacher about it.

It is always hilarious to me when I run into students in the real world and they don’t know what to do. Today, my partner and daughter are returning things at an outdoor mall and I am walking the dog waiting for them and my students saw me and tried to hide.

So I’ve spent the last month arguing with my admin about the importance of teaching grammar. Today, after changing assignments, changing my gradebook, and more, my admin came to me and said, “Maybe…maybe you were right.” Reader, I already knew….

My son: Dad, you aren’t gonna believe what I’m doing right now? Me: Oh? What are you doing? My son: I’m listening to

talk. Me: What video? My son: No, dad, live! In front of me in Eau Claire. Me:… Well, you always want your kids to have more or better than you.

I’m tired. My whole week was people in my life asking me to make them feel better about the election. Felt like I was a small kid dad again telling people things but not really believing it.

I’m just so tired. Emotionally and physically. I feel so drained, but I also feel I have to be Atlas, so back to the sky.

One of the problems of history today is that people want a glorious sound bite of the moment. “America won the war because it dropped the bomb. USA!” That removes so much of what was happening behind the scenes. People want a Vine or a TikTok instead of the story.

Instead of “Nothing Compares 2 You,” try, “She Moved Through the Fair,” to remember Sinead O’Connor.

College visits are weird. They’re weirder when you’re the parent.

I took my kids to downtown MPLS today to hit up some food trucks. Met a woman named Lottie who dared me to switch shirts with her. I did. Turns out she was homeless, and this made her day. The food truck owners told me no one is ever nice to her. The shirt she gave me is terrible, but she’s not.

Just back from MI:Dead Reckoning. It’s good but a bit overstuffed, and it has a similar problem that Marvel movies have. (Trying not to spoil)

Officially my kids have had better college visits than I ever did. My parents just fought the whole time in front of the tour groups at each school.

My dog, Hades, loves running around at the dog park. His tail is zooming as much as he is.

This is baiting, but somehow also true. It’s as good as when my students were trying to figure out generations and skipped X because they thought it was a deleted name. Not kidding.
