😳 um, wow, y'all. I am overwhelmed with all the love! Thank you! It is wonderful to know so many educators feel this same way and are teaching our kids where they are. Since I've gained quite a few new followers I figured I should say a couple things. 1/
"We are products of survivors. We are descendants of people who overcame."

@unprocast The calculus required to figure out how many hours of sleep I would get if I fell asleep *right now*. Lol. But honestly, I wish someone had given me a refresh on counting back change. Would have saved me a lot of time when I was waiting tables.

Truly astonishing to hear Mitch McConnell & Senate Republicans decry “court packing” after they stole 2 Supreme Court seats for Trump & blocked 110 Obama judicial nominees
So, today, not only did my seniors gas me up about my hair being cute, we played @PlayBlooket for the first time and they had a BLAST! THEN, they shared how they have started their vaccine journeys and I just lost it yall 😭 knowing they'll be safe soon put me over the edge. 😭💜
Hello, my name is Dr. Rebecca Gibson, and I'm going to keep making people uncomfortable by talking about how underemployed me and other contingent academics are until the entire fucking system changes and we're all paid living wages and unionized to a fare-thee-well.
We all watched George Floyd get murdered, and now for the next several weeks, the entire news cycle will be dominated by Derek Chauvin’s defense lawyers arguing that George Floyd does not deserve justice.
That's trauma.
It's ok to not be alright. Take space for yourself.
Super excited to try a more interactive review with my kids by using @PlayBlooket So far, the functionality is very similar to quizizz but with more options! Hopefully it will go well!
I literally just told @heymrsbond I think he did it to divert attention from the power grid fiasco. To which she replied (sarcastically), "yea apparently not enough people froze to death." This is just, just.. I have no words at this point.
When @GregAbbott_TX reopened Texas too soon the first time, we were averaging around 5,000 cases per day.
Now, as he ignores public health once again, Texas averages 7,000 cases per day.
This is a reckless decision that will cost lives.
