I set up a Blue-sky account a while ago but hadn't been using it. Going to try to use it more for sharing what's going on in my classroom. You can find me at @JulieMorgan.bsky.social

Pet peeve: when you’ve done something as a favour for someone, and rather than saying thanks, they tell you how to do it better (in their opinion) 😡😡😡

I think it’s becoming close to unarguable that children should not be given smartphone or social media access, at least not without significant structural boundaries and restrictions. In schools, it’s essential to almost 100% ban them. ft.com/content/0e2f6f8e-bb03…
Smartphones and social media are destroying children’s mental health

Smartphones and social media are destroying children’s mental health

Evidence of the catastrophic effects of increased screen-time is now overwhelming

110%
A Dinosaur Couch comic. Panel 1 Boss Dino: I need you all to give 110! Panel 2 Boss Dino walks away. Worker Dino 1: That’s impossible. Worker Dino 2: Yeah. Panel 3 Dino 2: But what he actually wants is a 10% increase in effort. Panel 4 Dino 2: All we have to do is start giving 55% and he’ll be satisfied.

good enough
Dinosaur Couch comic 1002. Panel 1: Close up of a worried-looking raptor looking at a poster which reads "Your best is good enough". Panel 2: Zoom out to see a stegosaurus in front of the poster with a pen in its mouth. Panel 3: Extreme close-up of the raptor looking happy. Panel 4: Raptor and stegosaurus smiling in front of the poster, which has been edited to read "you're good enough even when you're not at your best."
