@SFDAOffice @BrookeJenkinsSF Nothing solves the homeless issue like giving them a criminal record.

Spent 2 wks on evaluating historical evidence. We looked at perspective, bias, corroboration, reliability. This wk they researched & presented on the 1st nation's in the Americas. Sources they used? Google & Wikipedia despite being given links to begin their research. #teaching

@TwistedSifter

Teaching moment: the very last word in the article is an ethnic slur using a millennia old prejudice against an entire group of people. We need to do better. This is not acceptable.

@PostOpinions @henryolsenEPPC You don't get to light a house on fire and then get credit for putting it out.

I love #JoePickett and I ❤❤❤ @sharonlawrence. She is killing it in the role of Missy but Missy shouldn't be likable. There's nothing likable about the Missy in the books & I would like to see her become detestable in the show.

Couldn't figure out why I was getting so many @23andMe notifications, then I realized it was the dumb new logo for #Twitter or X or whatever the idiot's calling it now. #RIPTwitter #XTwitter

@Nextdoor So you are condoning this type of behavior and language on your site? What, exactly, does "uncivil, unneighborly or offensive" mean to you?

[Kimberly Albertson @HistoryFan1804]

Missouri Senator @realmikemoon thinks 12-year-olds should be able to marry citing a couple he "knows" that did so & are supposedly thriving. But says he's not condoning adults marrying kids or rape. Yeah...sure.

[Kimberly Albertson @HistoryFan1804]

@fiveringrob @KeneAkers That's exactly what they're afraid of. But instead of reflecting on their own parenting and trying to be a better parent, they choose to pass the buck and blame everyone they don't agree with.

Went to Barnes & Noble to pick up the new @cjboxauthor book. Left with the new book and an #AvatarTheLastAirbender cookbook.

#TeachersOfTwitter...student teacher here. I need activity ideas for 7th Grade #socialstudies to keep them engaged - esp. the habitual sleeper. I'm starting #ChineseDynasties in 2 weeks. Any ideas?

Breaking: my @NYTimes investigation w/ @Fahrenthold reveals The Natl Restaurant Association’s lucrative scheme: $$ fees unwitting workers pay for ‘food safety certification’ are funneled to cover the costs of the groups’ Goliath battle against higher wages

@PaperBashing @ericareport There's normal conservatism and then there's history-denying, white-guilt conservatism. You appear to be the former but the latter gets all the attention.

@john281130 @wyonaf Tell that to the people who are STILL waiting to find out why they haven't gotten their tax refund yet after filing in February.

[Kimberly Albertson @HistoryFan1804]

@RogersHistory In America, it's hundreds of $$ a month just for the insurance. Which is a fancy American way of saying that your insurance will only cover a %age of your med bills & you're responsible for the rest (and not the lesser portion).

Hi 👋 I'm Ahmed, I'm a Muslim mental health doctor. For the last 12 years, I've swapped shifts so colleagues can celebrate the festive period with their loved ones. This year I'm working Christmas Eve, Christmas Day & Boxing Day in Emergency Psychiatry. Merry Christmas everyone.

A fragile truce has allowed partial access of humanitarian assistance to #Tigray.

But the long months of conflict have caused immense harm.

Many civilians have been displaced over and over again, trying to find shelter and food👇

[Kimberly Albertson @HistoryFan1804]

#January6thCommittee has recommended the #DOJ file charges against #Trump & several of his cronnies. Let's hope the DOJ follows through & those national embarrassments get what they deserve.

[Kimberly Albertson @HistoryFan1804]

@BlazinBoss @Mizzou725 @ericareport Ahhh, yes...cherry picking the data to suit your own agenda. Maybe try reading the whole article next time. 😂😂😂

Fanone was dragged by a mob down the Capitol steps, beaten w/ pipes, stunned w/ a Taser, threatened w/ his own gun, & had a heart attack on Jan. 6. His own dept as he’s getting honored today: Call him “piece of shit” & mockingly call him a “great fucking hero.”

“Back the blue.”
