I think we've gone too far in trying to make school fun all the time. I've probably posted about this before but admin sent an email out about focusing on project based learning and like, no! I do some projects in language arts but life is boring sometimes and we aren't letting kids be bored enough

Numberblocks' decision to make Three a narcissist has always fascinated me

The Tasting History Max Miller must HATE this guy.
Adam Parkhomenko@adamparkhomenko.bsky.social · 3d agoThe Max Miller Twitter live was creepy as hell and also very incriminating.
this reminds me of a teacher colleague I used to work with who, on September 1st, changed the date on the board to "August 32nd" and just kept going until the kids noticed several months later
Caræsten 🇵🇸@cara.city · 2d agoso there's been this big Clear Channel digital countdown to the world cup billboard in Oakland for the last six months, except the world cup is over, and they haven't found someone new to buy the billboard space, so right now it just says: "-51 days till all eyes are on the Bay Area!"
Happy "There Will Come Soft Rains" Day! Ray Bradbury's greatest short story takes place on August 4, 2026 (in most editions; see alt text). If you haven't seen it, you must watch this incredibly disturbing animated Soviet version (Uzbekfilm, 1984.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=4oxP...

just got off the phone with the OBGYN and when she said "yeah even with a referral from the ER October is still the earliest we can see you" I said "I am missing work, I cannot live like this until october so what do you suggest I do?" she left a message for the nursing department
taryn@peepsaregood.bsky.social · 3d agoscheduling appointments feels like you are greatly inconveniencing someone by overblowing your symptoms so it's validating to have an ER doctor confirm that you're not exaggerating but you can't have a functioning medical system that relies on ER visits to push through preventative care!
Apparently DEI was the only thing standing between us and death lettuce
