Snapshots from my first three days of teaching! I have such a crazy to do list but it’s basically impossible to think about when my classes come in and distract me with their wonderful, first-week-of-school chaos ❤️

[Louis ✨ GO3 brainrot era 🤍🖤 @LewisZebra]

Hey. I love you. ❤️

[Emma Rose Ryan - MLIS @EmmaRoseWriter]

(I’ll be preemptively reaching out to many of you, but gradually, because of the whole teaching today thing.)

[Emma Rose Ryan - MLIS @EmmaRoseWriter]

PSA: While I am teaching today (🙃) I want everyone in my life to know that I’ll be checking my phone, and I want you to reach out if you need me. There are so many people in my life that this is going to impact, and I want to be there for you all as much as possible.

[Emma Rose Ryan - MLIS @EmmaRoseWriter]

@dancingofpens That I’m here. I’m happy to listen if you want to talk about it. I’m not giving up on protecting my students. Also, I love and care about you ❤️

[dr. alicia andrzejewski (she/her) @aliciaandrz]

whatever happens, teaching literature will be more important than ever before. they’re trying to defund us for that very reason, ban books for that very reason. but we continue to challenge the stories that are fed to us & fight for what’s human.

I’m grateful to teach tomorrow.

My mom worked on the Florida abortion ballot initiative for nearly two years. She is besides herself. "We can't sustain raising 125k a month to help women travel. We won't be able to get them abortions." This is devastating.

“And when will we hold these elections?”

“On a Tuesday. During work.”

i LOVE when taylor talks about songwriting in her songs:
"don't need another metaphor, it's simple enough"
"i've spent my whole life trying to put it into words"
"grabbed a pen and an old napkin and i wrote down our song"
"something different bloomed, writing in my room"

You can’t have reading for pleasure without easy access to books. All primary schools need a school library and librarian

[✨ Tara Wine-Queen Writes ✨ @TaraWineQueen]

Every year, we do twelve days of books for our kids leading up to Christmas and it is one of the most joyful experiences of giving and receiving I’ve ever been part of ❤️💚

Just in: 110-year old Viola Ford Fletcher, the oldest survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre voted today in Oklahoma. I’m told she voted for Vice President Harris.

This, I must say, is the exact vibe. If you’re even a little bit raised Catholic you gotta see it solely for the number of things you get to do this about:

[Emma Rose Ryan - MLIS @EmmaRoseWriter]

@zoerosebryant This exactly!!! They’re a big reason why I wanted to become a children’s librarian/writer as well. With every new update to this IP I grieve for our nerdy, bookish younger selves. It sucks that we were failed by an awful person who continues to be enabled by greedy companies.

@IneptBisexual (Or maybe I was and am simply a nerd)

[Emma Rose Ryan - MLIS @EmmaRoseWriter]

I was barely alive for this, but like…what about 2000?

[Oedipa Maas @bridgietherease]

do younger people understand that prior to 2020 the votes were pretty much all counted the same night as the election

[Emma Rose Ryan - MLIS @EmmaRoseWriter]

@IneptBisexual Ok fair. But at the same time, while the elections I do remember from childhood were called night-of, I feel like all of us 90s babies were still aware of what happened then and that it could happen again.

I think everyone needs to hear Audra McDonald’s calming vocals today
