How would I rate the fraction representation of 0.9? I'd give it a solid 9/10.

Pls do not destroy school bathrooms for TikTok clout ever but especially not in a time when custodians are already working so hard. IT MAKES ME SO SAD.

🔥WOW—Anna Kiesenhofer, the amateur mathematician rider, rode off with an improbable Olympic gold medal. Why? She has a PhD in math, never won a major 🚴 event, manages own training, teaches university, 🇦🇹team=herself, doesn’t have coach or pro contract! washingtonpost.com/sports/ol…

Instead of continually hearing: “This is not America” Let’s start hearing: “This is not what we want America to be”. And then let’s do things to help make it better. 💛 – at Chicago, IL

Gospel: Today Jesus quotes the psalmist who says "the stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone" (Mt 21). There are many "rejected stones" who have become cornerstones in the church. This week we celebrated the Feast of St Mother Theodore Guerin, whose bishop...

I seriously don't get people who are like, "No pets allowed in Zoom." If my students have a pet and it doesn't make an appearance, I'm marking it as absent so it has to come see me during lunch.

It’s a dilemma that people, especially leaders, feel pressure to constantly be upbeat. Being grateful in good times & bad is proven to be important, but “forced positivity” can be a cross to bear. When things simply suck, we all need permission to be real. #sundayvibes #suptchat

Okay, so today is didn't use Zoom breakout rooms and instead made Google Meet meetings for each group with me in them. Game changer, because I could have all the rooms visible at once (in separate windows) and even listen to them all when I could handle the cacophony.
