@urn4prez What a challenging moment! I'm very proud of you for taking care of yourself so you can handle moments like these.

@gartoncr I agree. The actors felt solid. Some backstory felt necessary for future films. The diversity was great. There were some lovely visuals. But it was looong and kind of clunky.

[Ms. Okes @MsOkesTweets]

to compare is rough without just giving them something to use as a framework. (Ex: Getting your driver's license is like becoming a pirate.) Do you have any suggestions to guide us?

@TaylorMali I'm having my students read your "How Falling in Love..." as an extended metaphor, & challenging them to write their own about an emotion or rite of passage. Brainstorming the "love" part is not hard. Teens are full of emotions. Helping them find a parallel experience

@CoffeeTeachWine Yes. It has been exactly that for me recently.

@kittyfleurie @TeacherLingua My understanding is that "no bones day" means Noodle isn't willing to leave his bed, and therefore it's a bad day, sort of like a horoscope prediction. Same, Noodle. Same.

[Ms. Okes @MsOkesTweets]

@TeacherLingua @kittyfleurie But have you seen "Bones or No Bones" Noodle the pug dog? He's awfully cute.

@SheilaDWestfall Libby works great on my Android phone.

@ProfMoneyBags Any chance you are wearing two sets of contacts at the same time?

@TeacherLingua Request a choreographed dance to a French song. If they can dance for TikTok, they can dance for you!

@NEHumaneSociety @baffled Maybe you could give these haiku-ed pups some love and attention with your followers?

[MediaWise @mediawise]

Did you see the viral video of what looks like a VERY toxic breakup? The TikTok was viewed almost 20 million times, and cross-posted to multiple platforms. Let's talk about it 🧵

@MonsieurMiami11 I'm right there with you. It sucks. If I tell you to take the day, maybe in 1-2 weeks you can tell me to take the day? We can take turns commanding positive mental health practices.
