@womenedbc @msblackteach I think the push for people to put on a positive face only leads to increase in mental illness as we teach people to deny their feelings and reality.

@StephenKing Yup

But hey, those masks and vaccines were too much to ask from most Americans. 💔

[CDC @CDCgov]

The cumulative number of children who have experienced the loss of a parent and/or caregiver due to #COVID19-related deaths, using best available @WHO data, is estimated at 10.5M globally, research by CDC & partners published in @JAMAPediatrics reveals. https://t.co/WXXYQc9JMR

@srmilesauthor @DeeSTEM_Teach @DrBritWilliams @MoniseLSeward I couldn’t pay for them. I took student loans out myself and then They too went into debt for their degrees.

@jzux @DeeSTEM_Teach That’s exactly what ran thru my mind at the union retirement party.

They say that
to our government
we owe taxes
to our landlords
we owe rent
to our loan providers
we owe repayment
to our insurers
we owe premiums
they say that
we owe so much
to so many
but to each other
they say that
we owe nothing.

Describes my spring coat experience yesterday.

[Plague Poems @PlaguePoems]

When you pull on your spring jacket
you will find in one of its pockets
an old mask
(one of the reusable cloth ones)
you must have left it there
many months ago
back when you were certain
that you would not still need
to be wearing a mask
by this spring.

@mumofperfectkid Hubby and I are 💔that Michigan judiciary has failed our Governor and our democracy.

[Michelle Ritter @MediaRitter]

Yes. Yes. Many times YES

One of U.S. capitalism's sick tricks is making you feel guilty for taking a day off.

If your coworkers are slammed because you're out, that's not your fault - that's your company's fault for under-hiring.

[Michelle Ritter @MediaRitter]

@quintabrunson I’ll be watching. I always do.

[Michelle Ritter @MediaRitter]

@GlennonDoyle You keep cracking me up by saying what I’m thinking.

[Michelle Ritter @MediaRitter]

@mumofperfectkid I’m so angry and yet not angry enough to get some guns and plan to kidnap or blow shit up. What kind of people sat on the jury?

[Nicholas Ferroni @NicholasFerroni]

Teachers,

RT this if it is impossible for you get your grading, planning, parent/guardian outreach and all other additional requirements (on top teaching) completed during your contractual hours.

Just curious.

The way that a Black woman in America can be as highly, hyper educated, intelligent, elegant, skilled, experienced and qualified as KBJ and still be treated like this by white men on national television. It's not even symbolic. It's a glaring body of evidence.

[Michelle Ritter @MediaRitter]

@DrBradJohnson Sadly little evidence exists of that policy in many districts❤️‍🩹
