@AOLSupportHelp I need to recover some permanently deleted emails, but your email help option on your support page only allows emails to rwport abuse. How do I get help??

@flyethiopian whilst processing my compensation for an 11hour delay, you have in fact instead taken MORE money from me instead. CustomerService so bad I thought it was a scam. Care to sort this out?

@hallam_kirsty @AQAEnglish Hi Kirsty feel free to DM - moved on and not with Oxford in current school.

[Penny Lane @PennyLaneYorks]

Can anyone put me touch with someone else teaching the Oxford AQA iGCSE English Language? We can't be the only ones! @OxfordEdEnglish @AQAEnglish @OxfordAQAExams

@MissAliEnglish @Team_English1 @LitdriveUK You'll have a thousand ideas: don't try to implement them all at once, and definitely not before you've seen how everything already works, otherwise your silent message is 'my way is always best'.
Oh and cake. People like cake.

@HarrietLinberg @TeamEnglishNC @EnglishWales It's a sad day for the majority of the human population if 29 is too late to do anything! Age is meaningless, look at your motivations: run towards something don't try and escape via geography. It's hard work out here but oh gosh are there fabulous benefits.

I despise cockroaches & really want people to be rescued from collapsed buildings: so why do I feel sad for this roach forced to wear a backpack & electronically controlled? 🙁

[Al Jazeera English @AJEnglish]

Scientists in Japan are hoping this cyborg cockroach could help search and rescue missions in the near future 🪳

Can everyone *please* check the duty rota to see if you are the Prime Minister this afternoon and make sure that you are there if you are.

@Teacher378 @Team_English1 If it's appropriate foe the age group, Naomi Alderton's The Power is faaaaantastic. Such a simple concept too: imagine if women developed an electrical current in their skin and overnight became able to physically overpower men? It's EPIC. The new Handmaid's Tale.

[Penny Lane @PennyLaneYorks]

This lovely poem requires SO MUCH cultural capital to understand & it makes me wonder how I know the references & how I can ensure my students don't miss out on such gloriousness. @brian_bilston you da best 🙌 (A different kind of cultural capital)

[Penny Lane @PennyLaneYorks]

@TeachDramaDani "They're sciency kids, they won't do extra English stuff" WRONG. Oracy is for everyone: nailed it. 🙌

RIP Hilary Mantel. You made me like TomCrom.

Is this real? Is it a parody? Why don't people plan their metaphors before ending up calling the working classes "weeds"? The abuses of imagery here are not the issue BUT STILL. 🌷

MP explains how mini-budget & trickle down economics is like “watering a garden. Selectively”

Just in case to be clear #gbbo

[Penny Lane @PennyLaneYorks]

@TeachDramaDani Well this is just the gosh darned nicest thing ever. Right back at you! 🙌

Queue is such a great word. The actual important letter, and then four more silently waiting behind it in a line.

[Penny Lane @PennyLaneYorks]

I don't know how, but I WILL incorporate this into a lesson this week. 🐶👑 #corgi #packviolence

[Hannah Rose Woods @hannahrosewoods]

I did not expect the Wikipedia entry for the royal corgis to become this horrifying
