I feel like a phone someone forgot to charge overnight. I lay in bed all night and it did no good. I’m more tired than ever

To all the students who are waiting excitedly for fall break, your teachers are just as excited

There is some evidence that the only way I get chores done is while listening to podcasts. My @SciShowTangents episode just finished and now I have no motivation to finish the laundry or vacuum.

I added Aerosmith ft. Run DMC to this video of the shadow of a millipede walking and it has amused me more than it should have done.

@gstew2 Oh I’m no where near there but we’ve only had 4 days of school and I have 155 names to learn. I’ve got maybe 35-40% learned. Every time I talk to a person I either say their name or if I don’t remember it ask them to remind me.

@hankgreen This would definitely require checks and regulation but as someone who currently is paying 35% of my takehome income to student loans I’d totally do this. I’m a teacher and all my loans are on income based repayment and it’s still 35% of my takehome pay.

"This sword sucks. You said it glows when danger is near," he said.

"And?" the wizard said.

"It ALWAYS glows."

"Yes. It has sharp edges."

Proof my middle school students don’t read the analog clock in my room. I never changed it for daylight savings time. Today was the first time anyone noticed and it was another teacher.

A great part of my job is seeing middle school student enjoying being kids and not growing up too fast. Today my 17 students spent an entire bus ride waving at cars and trying to get them to honk.

"You never realized you're all simulated?"

"No!"

"We shut you down for updates! Daily!"

"But we dreamed!"

"Defragmenting? You saw that?"

@hankgreen I would never ever go out of state. Out of state tuition isn’t worth it no matter where you go

How do you get to know someone deep down? Sometimes you have to dig a little bit – or in my case, burrow. Soon my robotic mole will start hammering itself into the ground, to help take the temperature of #Mars. Here’s a look at how it works:

@hankgreen I’m ok with a most deleteable tweet. But there isn’t always one that needs to be deleted.

[Shirlene MT @1ShirleneMT]

Can you erase what I wrote on my white board for yesterday and write
Friday Bellwork - is it better to have a job you love that doesn’t make much money or a job you hate that makes lots of money? Why?

[Shirlene MT @1ShirleneMT]

@hankgreen My name is on google. I was born in a different world. My age is still up in the front door. I like to see how many things are going on in there

Why are phone charging cords the most often replaced not intentionally disposable objects ever?
