If Twitter ever gets *really* gross we should have like a place IRL that we get together. Somewhere free to hang out, somewhere quietish, but vibrant too. Maybe there could be activities and stuff to learn and do together. Maybe some books. Someone should look into this
IPhone upgrade program; I always wait a few days before wiping my old phone and sending it back, but turn it off so my alerts aren’t going off on two phones.

Never forget that anti-teacher attacks aren’t about protecting kids, they’re about discrediting public education to serve as a basis to privatize it.
Two questions for the school librarians who cap the number of students who can visit during lunch or other times: 1) What’s your reason for doing so? (What are you trying to prevent?) and 2) How do you ensure that access is equitable (since first-come, first serve isn’t)?

We are actively working to have Moms for Liberty declared a hate group and are starting a database to house the many documented instances where they prove themselves to be such. Please send videos, articles and screenshots to [email protected] for our collection.
I’m helping a student search for sources for a BIG research project he’s doing on @boburnham. Anyone have a way to contact his publicist, manager, or anyone else that could help us get in-depth analysis of “What,” “Make Happy,” and “Inside”?
